EIGHT MILLION ADDED
TO THE ARIZONA ROLL

The total assessed valuation Of
property in Arizona for 1926 taxation
purposes is $649, ,637 ,061, according to
figures compiled by the state tax
commission.
This represents an increase of $8,-
TAI, ,706 over the 1925 figures.
These figures are subject to change
when members of the tax commission
sit as a state board of equalization
during the first week Of August.
Although the state budget on which
the state tax levy is made has not
been completed as yet, it is generally
agreed that the total amount to be
raised by direct taxation this year will
be little more than $4,000,000, rep
resenting reduction of $850,000 from
last year, said semi-official announce
ment from the office of the state aud
itor. On this basis a decrease OF
about 10 cents on each 500 of as
sessed valuation can be anticipated
in the tax rate for the coming year

MUST TAKE HUNTING
LICENSE ALONG ALSO

It will be possible to prosecute a
person hunting or fishing without a
license under the Interpretation of
the state game law given to the state
game department by Arthur I.
LaPrade, county attorney of Mari
copa county.
AS a result of the opinion, the
game warden, D. E. Pettis, announced
that his department would proceed
to make arrests of persons detected
hunting or fishing without licenses in
their possession.
The state game department con-
strued the ruling to mean that even
though a person has purchased Ii
'cense to hunt and fish, they must
have the license upon their person
while engaged in those activities.
