''WHERE A DOLLAR 122 Noru 6th Street Counties May Take Warrants for Taxes Due State Must Accept Remittance in as Cash, Says Attorney General Spillman. Lincoln, Neb. Nov. 23. Register ed warrants may be taken by county treasurers for cash in payment of tax es, Attorney General Spillman today informed State Treasurer Robinson. The attorney general's opinion wag rendered following a request of the state treasurer yesterday by a bank er at Hastings. The' Hastings banker has been offered ' several thousand dollars worth of registered warrants Issued to pay the salaries and bills of the state hospital there, and it was pro posed to turn these warrants over to the county treasurer in payment of county treasurer to remit the war rants to the state and have them ac cepted as cash for tax payments. The state must accept its own war rants as cash whether registered or not, the attorney general said in his opinion. He pointed out that the law requiring the state to do this was practically entirely restricted in effect to registered warrants because unregistered warrants would un doubtedly never be offered. Robinson said that following this decision he would accept the war rants from county treasurers, but in timated that he did not think a very wide use of the nrivileere bv countv rants pay only 4 per cent interest there would be no profit In the trans action. The county treasurer of Lancaster , InsLuYioi! said yesterday that he would not adopt the policy of using registered warrants for tax remittances to the state. "I wouldn't monkey with them," he said.
