Yesterday afternoon the ladies of
the W. C. T. U. were very pleasant
ly entertained at the home of Mrs.

the ladies will take the matter un

acquiescence in me settlement, in
which case the government of Ire-

STATE SCHOOL LAND
MAY BE AFFECTED
School Districts Share of Funds is
Based Partly on Appraised
Value of State Lands.
State Superintendent J. M. Mat-
t . .1 I 1 1 fit.
"us omce is cnargtu wuu me uuu
of apportioning state school funds
: every six months. The last legisla
passed II. It. 529 which pre
scribes a new method of distributing
school funds. It is the same as the
old law with the exception that from
the total amount to be apportioned
there must be deducted an anioun
" equal to the taxes which state school
1 lands would have to pay if they were
taxable lands. After that is deducted
v the distribution is the same as' un
. der the old law. One-fourth of the
remainder of the total fund is dis
tributed in equal amounts to the
counties of the state and the remain
ing three-fourths of the fund is dis
tributed to counties on a basis of
school population.
The provision in regard to an
amount eual to the taxes that would
be collected on state lands means
that each school district containing
school lands will receive from the
state apportionment an amount equal
to what the tax would be on state
lands situated within that district
This change in the law was made to
satisfy legislators who favored the
saie cf state lands so that such lands
would be placed on the tax rolls and
the local taxing district would get
some benefit. ' - :
The task of working out the prop
er deduction 'from the state semi-
which contain school lands has fal-
len upon Deputy State John Speedle
He finds many difficulties in the way
but hopes to make tht apportion
ment by the third Monday in Decern
provides that the state treasurer need
not compute tb;e amount to be ap
portioned .until" the. third . Monday In
January, It is said the treasurer will
repo
. M
report ihe famouat; Jn December. The
al, U JikeJy.. be S450.000
Mr. Sneedle f mils that the new law
provides, that the last appraised val
ue of school lands shall be considered
its actual value as a basis for reim
bursing the school district. He finds
i that ctnto lanrlc In 1 jrnn rniintw oro
arpraised for leasing purposes at
?1 lo an acre while othcr ,ands are
assessed at a valuation of $8.45 an
cre for taxaiion purposes. This
nieanni the district will he reimbnrs-
ed for the taxes that would be due
comparatively small. There is a
pro
vision in the new law giving school
boards the right to appeal from the
appraised value of school lands. This
appeal must go to the state land com
missioner, Dan Swanson, who is au
thorized by the new law to make the
"prcper appraisment." It is belived
the time is too short for such appeals
to be made before the January semi
annual apportionment.
ine new law does not call for a
reappraisment by county commission
ers, but apparently clothes the state
land commissioner with power to re
view appraisments already made by
county commissioners. It is said the
new law will be an incentive to
pchool boards in districts where state
lands are situated to look sharply af
tcr the appraisment of state lands
therein, for such districts will be re
imbursed on the basis of the apprais
ed value. (
PACKING HOUSE MEN ON
STRIKE AT NEBRASKA CITY
Nebraska City, Neb., Dec. 6. The
strike situation today is in about the
same condition it was Monday when
about 90 per cent of the members of
the local union refused to appear at
the Morton-Gregson plant.
Pickets are placed at roads leading
to the plant, bnt to date no reports
of intimidation on the part of the
strikers against men desiring to ap
ply for work have been made. Every
thing is peaceful and the strikers say
there will be no rough tactics used to
gain their ends.
Packer officials report that nearly
200 men appeared for work on Mon
day, but the union men who are
keeping a close watch of those who
enter the plant deny this and say
that less than fifty men have passed
through the gates.

SCANT ATTENTION
Message to Congress Has Little to
Say About the Men Who
Won the War.
Washington, Dec. 6. Quick re
action to President Harding's mes
sage was evidenced today in the
house during an afternoon of ram
bling debate. ; .
Urging prompt passage of soldier
bonus legislation Representative Gal
livan, democrat, Massachusetts, .de
clared the "men who won the war
received but scant attention," In the
message. .' " J 1
Representative Huddlestjn," ; demo
crat, Alabama; asserted that' ' .the
president in his attitude toward labor,-had
"learned -nothing from the
past," but -"proposes-io hold onto the
old system, the old struggle between
the employer and the man who works
for him."
Representative Mondell, republi
can leader, was quick to reply, as
serting that he had never heard so
many "extravagant and misleading
statements."
Mr. Mondell charged that the Ala
bama member had misrepresented
the president's position and had
made it appear that Mr. Harding had
gone out of his way to express views
unfavorable to labor.
Lauding the message generally as
one of "conviction, and full of frank
ness and candor," Mr. Mondell said
that throughout it. ran a ''spirit of
cordial co-partnership and co-operation
with congress."
