Governor J. E. Erickson told a Lutherans picnic at the Kimpton ranch that Montana should not levy new taxes unless to reduce existing property levies, and any tax reform should aim to equalize the burden rather than raise revenue. He cited crop failures, low prices, and high freight and interest costs as the main causes of the state’s financial strain. He noted that property taxes and state costs have not risen in the past decade, but farmers face hardship due to agricultural conditions. He discussed collecting statistics on taxation.
