by the attorney general that it had no authority to levy for warrant redemption this year even though the county may soon have plenty of warrants on hand to redeem The decision left the county facing a prospect of very much reduced current expense funds The county had been in the habit of paying oft its outstanding warrants from receipts Into the current expense fund and then reimbursing the fund with a redemption fund levy the attorney general said This year the Oregon Short Line protested the procedure pointing out that tha county had no 1930 warrants outstanding since they had already been paid The protest was directed specifically against the redemption fund levy of 48 cents on the $100 proposed for this year The attorney general quoted the law to the effect that since there were not now any 1930 warrants demanding payment the need for the redemption fund had not appeared and the levy could not be made FOR TAX STUDY City Offers Turkeys to Fast Runners BOISE m— The state chamber of
