It is estimated that the national
debt will exceed the 100 billion mark.
It will require many, many years of
effort to pay it and keep up the in
terest and carrying charges. Infla-
ton for a good many years may be
necessary that a debt of this size can
be paid.

If the proprietors of the business
and industries of the country re-
ceived time and a half for the over
time they have put in trying to keep
their businesses going and meet their
payrolls, they could pay the national
debt and have enough left upon
which to retire.

on the grounds that accumulations
in the Retirement Fund are not yet
large enough to provide adequate
pensions. However, it was brought
out that even now pensions ranging
from 80 to 80 dollars, with a possible
average of SIS month could be
paid. After years on salary, and
compared to the average grant of
around $2l month to old age as
sistance recipients, this does not seem
an insurmountable barrier. A special
subcommittee of the education COM
mittee is now considering this mat
ter and will report back recommen-
dations.
Civil Service?
When civil service protects someone
not liked by the administration, the
supporters of that administration in
troduce bill to take that particular
position out of civil service! Without
going into the merits of the long
drawn-out efforts to remove Mr.. Car
slater, who by the way is back at
work-for a while at least-it was
proposed in a bill introduced last
week to remove his position of State
Director of Vocational Education
from civil service and make him sub
ject to dismissal by newly created
State Board of Vocational Educa-
ton! Conservative authors of the bill
include Sanction No1con IF Mol ODD
and Larson of Norman county. You
will remember in a recent column
called your attention to a similar bill,
affecting some jobs in the Railroad
and Warehouse Commission.
The State Senate Civil Admin
stration committee has already opened

the expense and about salary in
creases that we have decided to find
out just what has been going on

Tax Matters.
Last week the House passed three
very important bills dealing with tax
delinquent lands and their repurchase
through the installment plan.
fession of judgement might be made
for delinquent taxes on any piece
of land for the year 1888 and years
prior thereto, together with taxes
that came due in 1899. BY confess
sing judgement before December l.
1941, for the entire amount of all
such taxes and costs, excluding the
regular penalties and interest, but
adding 10 per cent penalty on the
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1941-02-20

amount of the taxes originally as
sessed. You can pay one tenth of the
amount when confessing judgement
and pay the balance in nine equal
annual installments at five per cent
interest per year. In effect this bill
extends the previous law past session.
H. F. No. 421 provided that any
one who had previously taken adj
vantage of the provisions of the above
law as passed in the last session, but
who since had defaulted on his
agreement, may remove the default
and reinstate the confessed judge
ment by written request to his coun-
ty auditor before December 81, l941.
With this request you must include
all delinquent installments, with in
terest. You must also show receipts
proving you've paid the taxes, in
GLIDING current taxes, as required
to be paid by the confessed judge
ment.
H.F No. 422 which we passed, pro-
vided for the repurchase of land
after its forfeiture to the state for
taxes. Representatives George Hagen
and Charles Halsted proposed an
amendment which was adopted. This
amendment provided that the county
auditor shall permit the owner at the
time of forfeiture, or his heirs or
representatives, to repurchase any
parcel of land occupied at time of
forfeiture as a homestead, and still
so occupied, for the appraised value.
To do this you must file written
request to purchase such property
with the county auditor where such
land is located, before November l,
1941. You may also by this amend
ment repurchase the homestead by
paying the delinquent taxes rather
than the appraised value, which ever
is the lower.
feel these bills are all very good
and l hope they pass the Senate
They are in line with my belief that
every inducement should be offered
to enable people to own their proper
ty, to regain ownership if lost, and
to repurchase their homestead. These
bills all help maintain community
stability, which is so important.
