completed, Maj. Poston said. the valuations
on more than half Of several hundred
houses were changed. but the total yalua-
ton worked out within a few hundred
dollars Of the former assessment, showing
that as many valuations were lover A "a
were increased.
The scientific businessllkc basis of the
method, Maj. Poston said. does away with
large part of the human element which
enters into former assessments and makes
it possible to value on an equal basis
property in widely separated parts of the
county. In addition to this. the deputy
assessor said. the tendency of the assessor
is to underrate and undercube the houses.
so that 10 case of complaint the property
can be gone over and the owner shown
where it would have been proper to assess
for slightly more than the actual value
obtained
The scientific scale has been copyrighted
by Maj. Poston and Mr.. Hamilton, the
former declared.
The new law requires that structures
having a content Of more than 5000 cubic
feet shall be assessed on a cubic-foot
valuation and the rate Of assessment and
the total assessment shall be set out for
each structure and it is on this portion Of
the law that the foundation for the sci. n.
tific scale is based.
Aiding the assessors in their work are
J. Fred Imirie. building inspector. and Mar
tin F. Iverson. deputy building inspector
who have been assigned to the assessors
Clerical aid and other assistance is also
being furnished by the county commits

ALASKA NOT TO BE IGNORED IN
 FUTURE ORDERS
Washington to Give Alas. kans Hearing in Migra-
 tory Bird Curtailment

Alaska's claims in connection with any future curtailment of the migratory bird season will be given full consideration by the Depart ment of Agriculture, according to H. w. Terl1une, Executive Secretary of the Alaska Game Commission and Agent of the United States Biological Survey, who returned home today from his annual trip to the national capital. He was ab- sent about five weeks.
 The Game Commissions estim- ates for appropriations for the next fiscal year were slashed $2,400 and reductions were also made in the Biological Survey and Reindeer Service estimates, he said. These reductions were in line with the policy of the House of Representa- tives to scale down all appropria- tions for governmental administra- tion.
 Attends Bear Hearing
 The Senate Committee on Wild Life Conservation held a special hearing on the bear situation which MT. Terhune attended. The hear ing was held in order to give John M. Holzworth, Chairman of a con- servation committee advocating the establishment of a sanctuary on Admiralty Island, an opportunity to present his case.
 MT. Holzworth made a lengthy statement. MT. Terhune presented the Alaska Game Commissions side, submitting facts tending to show the reservation was not need- ed. The United States Forest Ser vice was represented and Delegate Wickersham appeared in opposi- ton to the proposal.
 The Committee has not yet pulp lished it's findings, but MT. Ter hume expects it will fail to endorse the reservation idea.
 Urges Local Needs
 MT. Terhune urged upon the De- partment the advisabilNy of con- sidering Alaska's special needs in future restrictions that might be placed on migratory bird hunting. He emphasized the conditions here that ought to be taken into con- sideration in fixing seasonal hunt ing dates and before there is any radical curtailment of the open seasons. He was assured, in case it was deemed necessary to limit next years hunting, Alaska would be given every opportunity to be heard before action is taken.
 MT. Terhune made the trip to Washington to present the Com missions annual report and recom- mendations to the Secretary of Ag- ricu1ture, and to appear before Congressional Committees to ex- plain estimates for next years ap- propriations.

BORAH SCORES PLAN ADVANCED
 BY FRENCHMAN
International P office Pro- posal at Geneva Con-
 ference Assailed

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. G. The proposal of France, made at the Disarmament Conference at Geneva yesterday for an interna- tional police force to guarantee security to the world, is denounced by Chairman William E. Borah, of the Senate Foreign Relations Con- nittee, as an attempt to fasten a straight jacket" upon Europe.
 Senator Borah said this was an attempt to keep in force "the treat. ies which have neither honor nor justice as a foundation"
 Senator Borah said, there IS comfort, however, in the thought that no such proposition will be entertained by any considerable number of governments"
 Senator Borah's assertion is &C., cepted in Washington as a death knell, in this country at least, to the French proposition.

Court Shuns Miners
 Gold Tanning Secret

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Feb. G. The secret process of Roy Fitz- gerald, former Yukon miner, for banning gold out of black sand, was before the Superior Court, but the court wouldn't allow a demon- Stration.
 Fitzgerald was in court to answer a grand theft charge preferred by Albert Croll, Berkeley, who said he invested in the gold extractor, but failed to receive any returns.
 The miner thereupon offered to prove to the court that his process worked, and brought the materials to court. Attorneys objected, stat ing the pan held by Fitzgerald might contain gold itself.

NE WYORK, Feb. 6. = Barney DreyfuSs, President of the Pitts burgh Pirates, died late yesterday following an operation for glandu- lar trouble. He would have been 67 years old on his next birthday, February 23.
 Among the men whose efforts placed Americas national game on a high standard, none was entitled to more credit than Barney Drey- fuss, owner of the Pittsburgh cub of the National League.
 Baseball was his prime interest. He devoted himself to improving the game in all it's aspects in the business end of the sport as well as on the playing field.
 DreyfuSs was known as the shrewdest among the nlag1lates of the major leagues. His business ability and acumen proved valuable assets to the National League when No4AC2 OA6dAiA1dtlOAlo oPtSSASN " challenge it's position at the top of professional baseball.
 Defender Of Game
 The owner of the Pirates was a strong factor in the defense of the organized game through two base ball wars. The first was that waged by the American League about the time MT. Dreyfuss began to emerge as an important factor in the senior circuit. The second was the attempt of the Federal League to establish itself on an equal footing with the National and American Leagues.
 The American League war con- cerned MT. Dreyfuss and Pitts burgh only in general way since no effort was made by the new organization to infringe upon the territory of the Pittsburgh club And when the controversy had beer settled the Pittsburgh owner moved to strengthen the peace treaty by
