North Dakota Supreme Court OKs Double Tax Commission Appropriation
By unanimous decision the North Dakota Supreme Court upheld a double appropriation totaling 22500 for the State Tax Commission, covering salaries traveling expenses and clerical costs as set in chapter 303 of the 1911 session laws. The ruling preserved both the 19500 base and the 3000 extra originally linked to the commission. Governor Hanna had vetoed a later 17500 addition, but the court sustained the commission’s view that the 19500 and 3000 appropriations stood. Sunday visitors included Mr and Mrs Belien of Bolford with Mr and Mrs John M Thiel.
