Believes Birth
Control Will Become
Necessary in Future

Williamstown, Mass, Aug. 13.-(P)
Limitation of births is inevitable
and unavoidable. because the popu-
lation of the world is doubling every
century, DR.. Joseph Krimsk, a
Brooklyn physician, said today at
the Institute of Politics.
Asserting that primitive tribes re-
sort to infanticide, unless famine and
plague intervene. to prevent a too
rapid increase of their races, DR..
Krimsky said civilized people should
face the problem by resorting to
birth control.
DR.. A. c. Dieffenbach, editor of the
Christian Register, termed the cur
rent religious unrest and controversy
as one of the hopeful signs in this
country. A union of churches, he
said. would never occur. for as we
rise in the scale of vital intelligence,
differences become finer, not fewer

YOUNG MAN HAS
NARROW ESCAPE

N. K. Veldhuis Of ZIG West Alder
son street had a narrow escape from
serious injury while riding a bicycle
on West Main street Tuesday, when
he was struck by an automobile
owned, according to the state records,
by J. E. Vaudeville, a farmer residing
near BOzeman.
The accident occurred when Vande-
vile, who was travelling west on
Main, cut across the thorOughfare to
turn into the Kenyon-NOble Lumber
company's yard. Veldhuis, riding
east, was watching the yard entrance
for trucks and did not see Vandeville's s
machine approaching. The driver Of
the car shouted, but too late, and
Veldhuis was knocked violently to
the pavement. he was not injured,
however, and his wheel was but little
damaged.
The driver Of the Vaudeville auto
claimed that inasmuch as the Ken
yon-Noble company's trucks have a
permit to cut across Main street at
that point, he had similar right
and declined to pay any damages. Ai

drivers so doing were assuming the
risk, and should exercise great care

PARK PROPERTY
IS NOT TAXABLE,
SAYS MIR. FOOT
Attorney General Promptly Sus-
tains Contention of Transports
ton COmpany's Lawyer

Personal property in Yellowstone
National park and located within that
northerly and westerly twc-mile strip
once contained within the boundaries
of Montana is not taxable, and Park
county, which has levied an assess
ment against it, must cancel such as
sessment, according to a letter re-
ceived by Assessor W. F. COwan from
0. A. BergesCn, a member Of the state
board of equalization. The letter,
which is based upon an opinion by
Attorney General L A. Foot, reads:
"Helena, Mont, June 8, 1926.
"Mr. w. F. Cowan, Assessor, Gal
latin County, Bczeman, Mont.
Dear Mr.. COwan: We are enclOs-
ing herewith copy Of an opinion re-
ceived today from the attorney gen
; eral regarding the taxing Of per
sonal property in Yellowstone Nation
al park and located within the strip
contained within the boundaries Of
Montana.
"In this opinion he holds that this
property is not taxable in Montana.
In looking up this question more full
", it was found that the original
boundaries of the Yellowstone Ma
tional park were described in the, act
Of congress creating such park on
March 1, 1872, and includes the terri
tory contained within the boundaries
Of Montana. AS the enabling act for
Montana was not passed until Feb
ruary %, 1889, and the state was
created in the same year, subject to
the governments reservations OF
jurisdiction in the park, it is impOs-
sible to tax such property although
Section % Of the Revised Codes Of
Montana of 1921 expressly states
that such property is taxable.
1T is therefore ordered that any
assessments made Of personal prop
erty in Yellowstone Natianal park
contained within the boundaries OF
Montana, be cancelled and no further
efforts be made to place any Of such
property on the assessment roll.
"YOurs very truly,
Estate Board of Equalization, o. A
Bergescn, Member"
The opinion Of Attorney Genera
Foot, dated June 1 and addressed tC
the State Board of Equalization, fol
lows:
''You have requested my opinion a
to whether personal property locates
in the Yellowstone National park, ant
located in that strip contained within
the boundaries of Montana, is tax
able.
''Ycu have submitted to me a cop,
of an opinion rendered by T. B. Wei
in which he take the view that sue
property is not taxable.
Il am inclined to agree with tn
conclusion arrived at by Mr.. Weir
the effect that this area is unde
the exclusive jurisdiction of tn
United States government, and tha
the state has no authority to tax tn
property in question"
From an examination Of the stat
utes it appears that the facts are
