DRAFT OF THE
RADTUM PLANT
BILL READY
BY the United Press.

BY the United Press.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-The gov
ernment radium monopoly plan, out
lined by the house mines committee,
was put up to Secretary Of Interior
Lane, today for approval or revision.
The draft of the bill as presented
to him by Chairman Foster proposes
government ownership of a radium
extraction plant. without withdrawal
OF radium ore lands. although the
government monopoly is assured
through a clause providing that the
prospector must give the government
the first opportunity to purchase his
product. Elimination of the land with
drawal plan was made as a concession
TO Colorado opponents, as the com
mittee felt the government purposes
would be conserved by the preferen-
tial purchase proposition. The re-
vised bill would be introduced today
or tomorrow and the rules committee
will be asked to make rule for its
early consideration.
Representative Taylor of Colorado
expressed doubt as to whether Con-
gress would provide funds for estab-
fishing the government "radium re-
flnery."
Chairman Foster announced after
his conference with Secretary Lane
that the latter approved the two main
proposals for government ownership
Minor details will probably be worked
out by night

/ FINISHING
WORK ON The
ASSESSMENT

A ray of light is beginning to shine
through the heavy cloud of work that
has obscured the members of the
Board of Assessment Revision and
Appeals, since the new assess
ment work began. The members are
now able to state with some definite
ness about when the work will be
completed and announced this morn
ing that they expected to complete
the work on or about February 20. at
which time the entire system will be
placed under the new rates of taxa
ton II is believed that many per-
sons will be surprised, many greatly
pleased. and a few discontented with
the results, when they are announced,
as quite a number of radical changes
have been made in property valuation.
In some instances the assessment on
properties has been reduced several
thousand dollars and in other cases
the amount has been raised that much
The new assessment, however, will be
equitable and based entirely upon the
actual value of the property and not
guesswork as has been the custom in
past years.
Much Of the credit for the rapid
completion of this work belongs to
Colonel Weller 4. Stover, chairman Of
the finance committee of City Council
and President of Council William p.
White. who have devoted many hours
day to the work in return for which
they receive no remuneration. A
communication was received by City
Council at a recent meeting from
Mayor Howell requesting that Coun-
ell provide some compensation for the
members of the board for the services
they have rendered the city in con-
nection with the assessment work.
At that time Colonel Stover, Who is
father of the new assessment system
stated to Council that he did not de-
sire Council to take such action as
he was willing to take his medicine
after going into the work Colonel
Stover's service to the city has been
almost invaluable. inasmuch as the
work he has been doing is beyond the
capability of the ordinary individual
