MWAK VALUES
WILL BE FIXED
BY TAX CHIEF
Dam Builders And County Assess
or Turn Problem Over
To Hedges
Big Sum Involved
Property Includes Mason City
Houses And Dam Equip
ment

An agreement between officials Of
the Mason Walsh Atkinson Kie,
company, Grand Coulee dam con-
tractor, and John Thorp. county
assessor, has been reached which is
expected to settle the two months
old dispute over the companys
property values on the Okanogan
side of the Columbia river at the
dam, Mr.. Thorp has informed the
Tribune.
The valuation problem will be
turned over for final settlement to
Thomas S. Hedges, chairman of the
state tax commission at Olympia
Decision to take this course was
reached by Mr.. Thorp and the Off
Gals at conference in Mason City
last week.
The wide variation between Mr.
Thorp's estimated valuation of Ma
son City homes and other assessable
property and the figure which
MWAK representatives tentatively
fixed indicated that possibility of
settlement was doubtful. Submission
of the problem to the tax commits
sion was satisfactory to both part
les, Mr.. Thorp said.
$2,000,0O0 Figure Opposed
More than a month ago the
assessor notified MWAK officials
that the OkanOgan county property
would be assessed at $2,0OO,O0 He
explained that he felt an estimate OF
$125,O00 by the company for the
property was unreasonably low.
Strenuous objections to the assess
ment were voiced by the company
at subsequent conferences.
Center of the controversy was the
Mason City residence item. Mr..
Thorp established his values of
these homes on the rental charge
made by MWAK, supposedly based
on the allowable 2 per cent Of the
capital cost per month. MWAK
spokesman declared that the build
ing cost for the residences was
much higher than it would have
been under ordinary building con-
ditions, and argued that the valu-
ations should not be based OH cost.
Alleged rapid depreciation of
homes and equipment values was
held by the company as another rea-
son for substantial decrease in the
assessment valuations.

parently for that purpose some time
before.
Andersen who was about IS years
old, had seated himself in the cen

the gun. The charge entered the low
er part of the left ribs, ranging up
ward.

about II years and operated an or
chard on the east side of the river
near Oroville. He is survived by his
mother, who lived with him, and by
several relatives in Nebraska. He
! was unmarried.
Officers were unable to learn any
definite reason for the act, but

MASON CITY THEATRE
BILLS CHEVALIER FILM

Bergere," and an all star cast in
might Life of the Gods" bring
comedy and charm to the screen
of the Mason City theatre this
week and next. "Swell Head" a. fast
moving mirth vehicle, completes the
schedule.
Baseball, Americas favorite sport,
provides the background against
which the interesting comedy
romance, Swell Head" showing
Wednesday and Thursday, unreels.
Featuring, besides Barbara Kent
and Dickie Moore, Wallace Ford as
q home-run king with an diversified
Uranium, the film gathers much of
its fine effect from exciting Sc
quences of actual ball games.
Night Life
Every year one picture at least
stands out for its novelty, its daring,
and it's entertainment value. This
years picture is almost certain to be
"Night Life of the Gods" The
movies are constantly striving to
make pictures that are different.
There is one which is utterly differ
ent. It is unique.
Might Life of the Gods" which
has been secured by Manager Dun
can Mcpherson for Friday and
Saturday is different, because it
was taken from one of the worlds
most different" novels and was
written by one of the. worlds most
imaginative authors, Thorne Smith.
An inventor has discovered a
method whereby he can turn human
beings into stone, and marble statues
into living, breathing human be-
ings. If he doesn't like member
of the family, he turns that member
into stone; If he is to be arrested
bang, the cop becomes a stone
statue. If man goes to strike him,
his arm becomes poem of sus-
pended animation in stone.
On the other hand, this same in
ventor is struck with the idea of
bringing Venus back to life, and not
only Venus, but Apollo, Mercury,
Neptune, Diana and a lot Of other
GODS whose escapes fill the pages of
mythology. Naturally, these statues,
are turned loose on a great modern
city, create plenty of excitement and
comic situations, which Lowell Sher-
man has handled with excruciating-
ly humorous touches.
Folies Bergere
The most famous of the worlds
musical extravaganzas is brought to
the screen for the first time in
'Folies Bergere" starring Maurice
Chevalier and coming to the Mason
City Theatre Sunday, Monday and
Tuesday.
Chevalier is seen not only as
Charlier, charming, singing, straw
hated star of the Folies Bergere,
but as the amorous, -mustached,
be-monocled French Baron, whom
Charlier impersonates in his act, as
well.
The scenes of the original Folies
Bergere, so familiar to visitors to
gay Paree,- auditorium of the
famous music fall, the Folies bar
and all the rest of the colorful set
tings, have been reproduced in this
magnified screen adaptation.
Merle Oberon makes her Holly
wood debut as the seductively BEAU
tiful wife of the Baron, while Ann
Southern is cast as Mimi, the Jeal-
Gus partner and sweetheart OF
Charlier.
Several sensational dance num-
bers, featuring hundred beautiful
dancing girls, were staged by Dave
Gould, noted for the Carioca num-
Der in Flying Down To RIO" and
the Continental number in 1.-THE
Gay Divorcee.'
Chevalier sings five songs espe-
cially written by Jack Stern and
Jack Mesktll.

New Bangs Disease
Testing Record Set

Minnesota state and federal
government agencies cooperating
in the control of Bangs disease
of cattle, set a new state record
for numbers of cattle tested in q
single month by testing 84,070
head in February. The best pre-
vious record, made in January,
was 70,S93 head
Since last August, when the
Bangs disease eradication pro-
gram was started in this state, a
total of 294,474 head Of cattle, in
1857 herds, have been tested. OF
these, about 10000 head, or 1876
per cent of all cattle tested, have
reacted to the test, indicating they
were infected with this disease.
The majority of the diseased an
imals have been marketed Bangs
disease does not affect the food
value of the beef carcass) in an
effort to keep the disease from
spreading to healthy cattle. In
IDENTITIES totaling $4,000 have
been paid to owners who have dis
posed of cattle in compliance with
their Bangs disease eradication
contracts.
About $4,000 herds, for which
testing agreements have been
signed, remain to be tested, w. j.
Fretz of st. Paul, in charge of the
Bangs disease control for the
federal government in Minnesota,
announces. Many Minnesota cat
tie owners in addition to those
who have already signed testing
contracts, have applied for testing
contracts, he says, but acceptance
of applications has been discontin-
ued until the cost of indemnifying
owners Of herds now under con-
tract can be more accurately de-
termined.
Indemnities already paid by the
government for diseased animals
have averaged about $40 per head.
DR.. Fretz asserts, but this average
will be reduced for cattle yet to
be tested if prices of cattle con-
tinue to rise. This is true, he ex-
plains, because the indemnity paid
on each animal is the difference
between its appraised value for
breeding and production purposes
and the return it brings on the
market.
Naturally, the smaller the in
demnity paid per animal, he ex-
plains, "the more owners can be
Unidentified. An additional ap-
preparation by congress would also
permit the extension of this pro-
gram to additional herds"
