The Assessors Now in Session
 -------~S List Your Taxable Proper. ty During the Present
 Month

No matter what way things go in business people will have to pay their taxes or make the burden heavier by letting the bill stand and accumulate interest. For this reason 1t would be wise to call at the nssessors office this month and list your taxable property. Some say it does no good to do this. adding that the assessors will put their own value on 1t. anyway. and tho owners might just as well spare themselves tho trouble.
 Don't take any stock in people who give you that kind of ndvics' Supp osing you feel that the value on your property is too high and you want to appeal to the board of relief. you have no standing there unless you had listed your property and also appeared be- fore tho assessors sitting for the purpose of hearing complaints from persons who feel aggrieved, IL ia n mistake not to list your property within tho time prescribed by law,

MAY SETTLE OLD FEUDS

Things aro beginning Co nssumc q more friendly attitude between Ireland and England, and tho Lord knows it Ia time. In tho past when q representative Of Ireland raised his voice contrary to tho established order Of things. he was raiiroaded off to jail hnd kept there just as long as those who had tho upper hand thought well of ft. it b different now. nA any body can see when two grcnt rcp- reseptativcs of the British gov ernmsnt have accepted m invita- ton from Eamon DeValcra. prcsi- dent Of the executive council of the Irish Free State. to cni1 upon him in Dublin md have q hcnrt to heart talk about different miittdrs of much interest to both countries And, as if not to be outdono in courtesy. DeVafera has been invited to return the visit md has agreed 10 meet the British dignitnrics over in London.
 This is as 1t should be. They have interests in common md the only way they can get together in in conference. each side yielding something, instead or one stating tho terms and telling tho other to accept them or prepare for war.
 All this looks good on the sur face. but if DeVnicra comes out of the sessions without tho world famous statesmen putting some thing over on him. 1t will be little short of il miracle, According to press reports the meeting in the Irish cd pitol was very pleasant. md l.

HARDING RULES FOR PACKER IN
 PACK TAX SUIT
Dismisses Territory's Case for $58,000 Against
 Bristol Bay Co.

In a judgement rendered orally recently by Federal Judge Justin w. Harding in the local United States district court, the Terri tory's suit against the Bristol Bay Packing Company for alleged un- paid salmon taxes was dismissed with prejudice. Costs and disburse- ments of the defendant were order ed to be reimbursed by the Terri tory.
 The suit involved approximately S58,000 in taxes claimed due over a period of some nine years. The Territory claimed the Company in paying its graduated pack tax on salmon had paid on the basis of a pack from two cannerieS when in fact it had only one plant.
 The Company, in the trial here, contended that it does operate two canneries, although both are To- ca ted at the same point. The Court held with this contention which it added, was apparently the view taken by the Territory over the years intervening between beginn- ing of the alleged underpayments and the date of filing the suit.

COMMITTEE FOR POPPY SALE IS
 NAMED BY UNIT
Mrs. M. E. Monagle Heads Committee for Auxil-
 iary Poppy Sale

The appointment of Mrs M. E. Monagle as general chairman of the 1882 memorial poppy sale in Juneau has been announced by Mrs. H. c. Nordling, president of the local unit of the American Legion Auxiliary. The sale will be conducted here May 26, the SatlIr day before Memorial Day, which has been designed as Poppy Day" throughout the country. On that day every person in the city will be asked to pay tribute to the memory of the World War dead by wearing one of the Auxiliary's veteran-made poppies.
 Mrs. Monagle will be aided in planning and conducting the poppy sale by a committee of prominent Auxiliary women including Mrs. John H. Newman, Mrs. R. A. Rei- schel and Mrs. Helen Bernhofer A number of other committees will be appointed soon to conduct special activities in connection with the sale Because of the increased need for the relief work among disabled veterans and their famil- ies which the poppy sale makes possible, the Auxiliary is planning to extend great efforts to make the sale this year larger than ever before.
 Mrs. Nordling said: "The sale is one of the largest Auxiliary pro- jects of the year and on it's suc- cess hinges the success of the ex- tensive welfare program which the Auxiliary carries out for the needy fimilies of veterans. All the wo- men who take part in the sale work are unpaid volunteers. The veterans who make the peoples re- ceive one cent for each flower and the balance of the money received is all expended in the Auxiliary rehabilitation and welfare activi- ties"
