which was held either at the school
house or in the Westerhelm hall.
Conboys moved in the store in

is something to see. House plants,
tomato plants with tomatoes on,
string beans, cucumbers and melons
with the fruit already on. Just
walk past and have a look, and
you'll see Dr. Bush has a hand
for making plants healthy as well

GUST WOG
Republican Candidate
for Re-Election for
SENATOR
39th Legislative District
Primary Election June 27th
Your vote and support will be
greatly appreciated.
(PoL AriSe.}
ATTENTION - - - -
- - - Voters of North Dakota
At the forthcoming June 27 ,primary election, you will receive a
measure ballot, on which will appear three proposals.
The second measure is a proposed constitutional amendment, which
would permit an additional 4-mill state-wide levy on all taxable pro-
perry in the state, the proceeds to be used for the State Equalization
Fund.
We urge the voters to vote NO on this proposal, which we believe to
be unsound in principle, entirely unnecessary, as well as being costly
to the taxpayers.
Among the reasons for opposing the measure, we list the follow-
ing:
1. Levies for local purposes should not be placed in the constitution.
School levies should be flexible, so as to permit legislative change from
time to time in accordance with times and conditions.
2. Its passage would set a bad precedent. If there is to be a state-
wide constitutional tax levy for the equalization fund, why .not one for
relief, for roads, streets, and salaries of policemen, firemen and local
officials?
3. We firmlY believe in the necessity of free public education, and
the best that we can afford. Yet, school districts have never been In
better financial condition. On Jur~ 30, 1943, the total gross debt of all
school districts was only $5~4,994.31. To more than offset this, on the
same date, school treasurers had on hand cash balances totaling
~,873,371.12.
4. The State Treasury is In ,the best condition in many years, State
revenue for the fiscal year ending June 30. 1943 totaled $25,022,000 as
compared with $20,859512 for the fiscal year ~nding June 80, 1940.
On December 31, 1943 the balances In all state funds In the hands
of the State Treasurer totaled $25~59,699.77 as compared with $10211,-
70.65, June 30, 1941.
5. All available money is needed for the war effort. In addition to
high federal taxes, immense sums must be raised ,by bonds. North
Dakota is now in the midst of the Fifth War Bond Drive with a quota
of $39,000,000 to meet. It is neessary to pay these high taxes and meet
war bond quotas, but this cannot be done by increasing state and local
taxes unnecessarily.
Vote NO on the second proposal on the measure ballot,
June 27.
