LOWERING RIVER : RELAXE5 THREAT
 TO ARCTIC TOWN
High Wafer Period Passes Leaving Nodfak Vil-
 Iaqe Still lnfdCt

The l--rctic village of Noatak is
 no longer in immediate danger of being carried away by the turbul-
 ent flood waters of the Noatak
 River, according to word received sshere this morning by the Alaska
 Native Service. The river level Curing the past week fell four feet, relieving the threat to the village 1 and nearby ANS school building, |. at least until the fall periof of high water.
 The report was received here by ANS Construction Engineer Ralph Mize from Cortez Crutcher, teacher at Kotzebue, who was dispatched to Noatak by plane to investigate conditions at the isolated Eskimo m m unity, following report mushed in by the native chief at Noatak that the bank on which his village sets was being bitten
 away by the ravaging river.
 When the first knowledge of the
 encroachment on the village site by the Noatak River was received
 here July 5, it was stated that the flood d-stage stream had already
 taken put 50 feet of the bank and that cracks in the underlying ice

extended back toward the village an additional 40 feet. Just how much further the rivers rampage pushed impending devastation to- ward the remote community will not be known here until more de- tailed reports are received by mail
 When fuller details are received ANS officials here will contemplate measures to protect the village at the next high water period. An attempt to straighten the stream channel was commenced last sum- mer but was halted by the freeze up before completion. It is thought however, that the work that was accomplished, by the natives under MT Mize's directions, may have done much to save the town site during the recent danger period.

Paris Girls Want GI Fun
 Moi Marriage

PARIS - When boy meets girl in Paris is doesn't always end in a lifelong romance. Most of the meet ings which take place when a Tommy or CT gets a few days leave in the gay city are fleeting incidents and few broken hearts are left behind.
 The various hospitality centers which provide a whole series of dazzling blondes and alluring bru- nettes to order, are not in the marriage market.
 French girls like a good time, they explained to me at Canada Corner, the hospitality center run by the Knights of Columbus war ser vices in the Avenue de lOpera, but to marry and go right away to Can- ada or the United States-oh dear me, no! The poor little things are scared at the thought of going So far and want to stay right here in Paris. They'll marry Frenchmcn in the end.
 But, though we get few real TO- mances, there are many lasting friendships made In years to come many a British Tommy and Canad- ian will come back here, perhaps with his wife and all the children, and seek out again the girl he used to take around Paris on leave.
 They showed me how they keep a register of all the girls who help to entertain the troops. They range from daughters of bakers to daugh- tcrs of ambassadors. Many belong to top-notch families in French so- ciety and not a few names of the famous Two Hundred Families of France" are listed there.
 Against each girls name are list ed all the facts concerning her notes on her age, personal appear ance and qualities as hostess. The notes are cooly business-like eff sometimes crueD but the book con- taining them is carefully locked away. One I saw listed as mot pretty, but very gay and talkative.'

MAYOR OUTLINES BASE FOR LAKES
 IN COMING YEAR

Ernest Parsons, Mayor of Juneau today outlined the likely formulae to be followed by the City Admin istration in setting taxes for the coming year, as it will be based on tie evaluation of real property in the City, just completed The Mayor issued the following statement:
 In the near future the City As sessor will te mailing notices of the 1945 assessment for Juneau Consid- erable interest has been expressed by Juneau taxpayers in just what might be expected from the city in tke way of taxes this year. i Howard S. Henretta's S report to the Common Council on June 6 shows the following figures on real prop erty values:
 Total replacement value e
 all taxable property is $12,299, ,45C Total depreciation allowed 2,838,334 Fetal net taxable value 9,461, ,11t Net gain over 1914 . 3,717 ,51t
 
 Of the net gain (S3,717516) a sub- stantial amount represents proper ty heretofore not on the tax rolls.
 In making the appraisal, MT. Hen- retta used construction costs of the oase period of 1940-41 and such -csts have been applied fairly to all DrDnertv in ,Jllnpall
 Instead of computing your tax or the old basis of 30 per cent estimated value it will be figured on a new oasis of 100 per cent of valuation There are several good reasons fol this change in the method of com putaticn, none of which should af- feet the ultimate tax to be paid.
 Tie mil rate will be adjusted according to the budget require ments of the city for 1945-46. This will be done after the meeting of the Equalization Board to be held in August.
 At the Board Meetings taxpayers will have opportunity to appear and present any objection to the valua- tion placed against them.

5 Pei. Cut for 1900
On Public Assistance
Rolls Set for Dec. |

Public assistance grants for some
$500 persons will be cut 5 per cent
December l in an effort by the
Board of Public Welfare to stay
within its relief appropriation.
In statement announcing the
reduction. the board said yesterday
rises in individual grants since the
beginning of the fiscal year July
have outstripped the first quarter
budget allowance by some $1,000,
adding that october expenditures
alone, at present payment rates, are
likely to be $4,000 over the appro-
priation allowance.
Welfare officials have been di-
rected to prepare deficiency appro-
priation requests on the basis of
current need as reflected in current
grants. Succeeding months at cur
rent rates would put the board So
900 month in the hole, it was said.
Previous Cut Restored.
Insufficient funds in last years
appropriation forced a 10 per cent
cut in the relief grants which was
in effect from January to June.
With the beginning of the new
fiscal year on July 1, the 10 per
cent was restored Ceilings were re-
moved from relief grants in 1943
and since then the payments have
been approaching need SO far as
possible.
Rising cost of living, it was indi-
Gated, has gradually boosted the
grants, together with reduced earn
ings in some instances among the
recipients.
The 5 per cent cut, according to
the board, is expected to continue
through next June and the amount
OF the cut may even have to be
increased later If no deficiency
money is granted.
Old Age Group Largest.
Relief categories affected are old
age assistance, aid to dependent
children, aid to the blind and gen.
eral public assistance. OF the total,
the largest group is old age assist
ance which accounts for about 2,40O
of the total number on relief. Gen.
eral public assistance includes 657
individuals and 73 families.
Board members pointed out that
the estimates on which the present
appropriation is based were pre-
pared in April, based on the needs
for last February.
1T is because the average size of
the grant has continued to increase"
the board said, that action is now
required, for a continued decrease
in numbers can no longer be
expected"
In his annual report for the board,
Welfare Director Ray Huff pointed
out that ielief clients of all cate
gories had dropped steadily since
