TERRITORY'S TAX FROM FISHERIES WILL EQUAL 1887
Revenues Will Be High This Year, Predicts J. C. Gil
 bert, Cannery Executive

The Territory's tax revenue from the salmon industry will be as higl1 or higher than last year, and this in spite of curtailment of opera tions in Bristol Bay and poor fish ing season in Southeast Alaska, ac- cording to J. N. Gilbert, vice pre5i- dent in charge of operations for the Pacific American Fisheries, who ar rived in Juneau on the Mollusk last night from Ketchikan, on a tour o: PAF canneries.
 Because of the unusually large run of red salmon in Bristol Bay this year, the packs of the individu- al canneries have climbed into the higher tax brackets and the Terri tory will profit thereby, MT. Gilbei said
 Southeast Alaska canneries will possibly end the season with packs GO and 30 percent of normal, ac- cording to MT. Gilbert.
 While sales of fish on hand have been slow, business is improving now, and there is no reason for anything but an optimistic view of the industry's future, he added,
 With Mrs. Gilbert and their daughter Paddy, who accompanied him to Juneau, MT. Gilbert will leave on the Mollusk tomorrow for Ketchikan. They plan to return south about the middle of August.

WELL KNOWN
 ARTIST GUEST
 IN CITY TODAY
Mrs. J. N. Gilbert Arrives Here with Husband
 and Daughter

Usually when Mrs. J. N. Gilbert accompanies her husband to AL aska, it is a time for painting, sketching, securing material for the Alaska scenes she paints so beau tifully. For Louise Gilbert is one of the Northwest's foremost artists and Alaskan landscapes have all ways been among her fayorite sub iects. However, rainy weather has prevented this industrious artls t from accomplishing much on her present journey, she. said respectfully today, and unless weather changes before they leave for Seattle about the middle of August, she will have made. few additions to her collection of Alaska scenes.
 Mrs. Gilbert's "one-man" show at the Seattle Art Museum this spring was an important event in art circles in the Northwest. Earlier in the year she exhibited her etchings at an art show in Port
 
 land. One of her water colors took a prize at the exhibitors of the Ma tional League of American Pen- women in Washington, b. O., in May.
 In New York City, she has a painting hung in the Grant Gal leries, where she exhibited with the Women Painters of Washington.
 Her forte is landscapes, and oils and watercolors her means of inter pretation. Though her work has received national recognition Mrs. Gilbert modestly says she has never been satisfied with anything she has done, is still studying and striv- ing to improve her work. Her paint ing is modern in feeling, not mod ernistic nor realistic.
 This is Mrs. Gilbert's first trip to Alaska in three years and tray- cling with MT. and Mrs. Gilbert this summer is their daughter, Paddy, a student at Forest Ridge Convent, Seattle.
 The Gilberts arrived in Juneau last night on the Mollusk, of Ket- chikan, and will return to Ketchi- kan in the morning.

NEWTON, Iowa, Aug. 4.-Four- teen hundred employees of the May tag Company began moving this morning in two directions, one group going toward the plant for the scheduled reopening and the other group toward the school house for a CIO union rally to vote on the reopening proposal.

Montana farm taxes have de-

nine years, according to reports

Taxable

While taxable valuations declined
43 per cent, average tax levies
jumped Is per cent so that the net
tax reduction was only about 80
per cent. According to the U. S..
Bureau of Agricultural Economics,
Montana is one of the five states
of the forty-eight whose taxes per
acre are lowest in comparison with
the 1918 taxes. A comparison of
the amount of taxes per 500 of
