ASSESSMENTS SHOW
CHANGING HABITS
OF MONTANA FOLK

Helena, May SO-(AP)-Ever
the dull and dreary statistical re-
cord of assessments made upon
personal property owned by the
people of Montana tells an inter-
esting story of changing habits
and customs of the people.
For example, in 1923 Montana
people did not own flying machines
or radios or electric refrigerators
or washing machines. Or, if they
did, such property escaped the as
SCISSORS, or was not considered of
enough Importance to be classified
by the state board of equalization.
In 1881 this class Of property was
assessed at more than $ 1000, 900.
And in these days of depression
1t is interesting to note that cit
liens own automobiles valued at
$685. 46 while in 1923 automo-
biles were valued at but $14,914,-
494. Have carriages and wagons
been crowded off the highways?
Apparently not, for they were as
sessed at $2,653.7A in 1891 and
slightly less, s2,620.997. in 1923.
The tax records sustain the sta
of home life in the state with
household furniture always asses
sed at about the same figure des-
pite the fact that a hundred diff
ferent officials in Sc counties val
ue household furniture, assessing it
at S14,S26,133 in 1881 and $14,295,-
SEA in 1928.
THE economic history of a state
briefed in its tax assessments"
Judge John j. Greene,
A member of the state tax board.
When an industry has long been
depressed, as is the ease with ag-
'iculture, it is properly reflected in
assessments. Unless this is
lone the economic stability of the
nGdstry is impaired"

Stores preferred and Twin City Rapid
Transit preferred.
OF greater significance than these,
however, were the reductions in the
rates previously paid by the National
City Bank of New York and the Chase
National Bank, in keeping with the re-
adjustment in their surplus and undi-
vided profits accounts at the end of last
year which was made necessary by
losses in securities and in commercial
loans When 1t Is considered that the
net profits of industrial corporations
in 1881 were SO per cent below those of
1880 and 72 per cent under the profits
in 1929. and that nearly the same re-
vision has occurred in the net operating
income of many of the railroads, 1t
is surprising that the monthly totals
of dividend and interest money dis
tributed stand at such high figures.
Delay in Tax Policy.
Part of the sluggishness in business IS
ascribed to the delay in establishing
the Governments tax policy for 1882.
Not knowing the character or the de-
gree of these taxes, those businesses
that will be most affected by them are
marking time. There is the same un-
willingness on the part of large in
vestors to make commitments pending
information concerning the rates pre-
scribed for income taxes that will preju-
dice some securities and advantage
others Collateral to this Is the deter
mination of how far the new taxes will
cover the prospective Government deficit
for the remainder of this fiscal year, as
well as for 1928.
1t Is expected that the Treasury pro-
gram for its March Is financing will
be announced early next week and that,
with the recent improvement in senti-
ment and the lower rates for money,
the Government will be able to make a
proposal that will meet with a ready
response from the regular purchasers of
short-term certificates.
The immediate international political
situation is predicted on the outcome Of
the German elections on March 13. The
result of this may have an important
bearing on the subsequent negotiations
between the European powers on repara-
tions payments.
