Executive Council Orders Levy on Capital Grounds and State Institutions

The executive council approved tax levies totaling over 1.5 million dollars, including half mill for capital grounds, Ames extension, and institutions under the state board of control, plus one-fifth mill for the State University and the State Agricultural College and one-tenth mill for the State Teachers College. Land for capital improvements may cost about a million, with a similar levy for Ames extension and eight-year funding of 150,000 for new public buildings and grounds, contingent on further funds. Safeguard crossings demands will urge railroads to ease approaches and enforce safer crossings after inspection of Crent White Way and River-to-River road in western Town. The state highway commission seeks cooperation with railroad and attorney general to improve crossings, noting steep grades and stall-prone crossings endangering autos and teams. Cavalry formations for the Iowa National Guard may be organized, but no concrete plan exists yet. The state will pursue the Baughn case before the supreme court with prepared arguments, while the Executive Council praises Casson on the capitol extension suit, with options on property to be obtained continuing through the fair excursion rate cases.
