HOUSING AGENCY
MAKES PAYMENTS

Jesse Epstein, regional direct
or for the Federal Public Hous-
ing authority, announced this
week that he had authorized
payments in lieu of taxes for
1945 for war housing projects
in the amount of 81, 1882, 522.
In addition low-rent projects
in Region VII have paid ap-
proximately $70,115 in lieu OF
taxes.
The payments have been
made to the states, counties,
cities, school districts and 9th :
er taxing bodies of the region,
comprising Washington, Oregon
Idaho, Montana, Wyoming anc
Alaska.
1T is the policy and regular
practice of the FPHA to au-
thorize these payments" said
MI. Epstein. "Since the prof.
ects are public property, they
are tax exempt, but they still
pay their way. For the war
housing projects the payments
are the equivalent of what
would be paid if the properties
were on the tax rolls"
Where local housing authori-
ties operate the projects, the
payments are made by the
housing authorities directly to
the various taxing bodies.
Where the FPHA operates the
projects, it pays the taxing bod
les on behalf of the federal
government.
There is no desire on the
part of the FPHA to impose fl
nancial burdens on the locally
tax supported services given to
residents in this region" MIR
Epstein emphasized. Since 1912,
when the war housing projects
were first developed on a large
scale, more than $4,385, 900 has
been paid in lieu of taxes"

FARMERS PLAN
SMALLER CROPS

Total planting of principal
crops in Montana this season
is expected to be smaller than
in 1915, the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics reports this
week.
If farmers carry out plans as
stated March l, larger acreages
of corn, oats, barley, beans and
sugar beets will be planted,
These increases, however, will
be more than offset by smaller
acreageS for spring wheat, flax
seed, dry. peas and potatoes.
Faced by labor and machin-
cry obstacles, the planting, Gull
tivation and harvest of the
6,858,O00 acres of principal crops
this year will again call for
ingenious and diligent effort on
the part of farmers and their
families, the report pointed out.
A decrease of eight per cent
IN spring wheat paintings for
1916 is slightly more than
compensated by a IA per cent
increase in the winter wheat
acreage planted last fall. The
acreage of all wheat is placed
at 4,036,000 compared with a.
027,000 acres in 1945. The in
tended spring wheat paintings
for 1916 are 2,318,O0O acres and
seedlings of winter wheat for
harvest this year cover 1,718,-
900 acres. Information available
on March l indicated relatively
light winter kill of the fail
sown wheat.
Increased paintings of corn,
oats and barley is expected to
be made largely on lands re-
leased from spring wheat and
flaxseed. The heavy 1945 flax
seed acreage turned out a rath-
er poor crop and growers this
year plan to reduce their plant
ings 81 per cent. A continual
increase in cattle numbers to-
gether with the saw-fly hazard
with spring wheat are induce
mentS to plant larger acreages
of food grains.
Expansion of the sugar beet
acreage shown by the March l
report is qualified somewhat by
the prospective supply of out
side labor for thinning and
harvesting the crop. The in
tended paintings of 9 $4,000 acres,
which is six per cent more than
last year, would be a record

POTATO
AT LEVEL

Montana's stocks of mer-
charitable potatoes held by
growers and local dealers or
March l of this year was esti-
mated at 100000 bushels, says
a report of the Bureau of Ag-
ricultural Economics.
A year earlier, potato stocks
amounted to 400, 900 bushels
and in 1914 the March l stocks
were 600, 900 bushels.
Stocks January l were 600, 900
bushels and 100000 bushels
were marketed during January
and FEBRUARY. During the cor
responding period in 1945, $780,
600 bushels were sold.

beet acreage for Montana. Al
though the bean acreage may
be slightly larger than last
year, the paintings Of dry peas
will be significantly reduced.
It is also indicated that pota-
toes will be planted on a SMALL
er acreage.
Soil moisture conditions for
seed bed preparation and ger
mination of spring planted
crops are generally favorable.
Precipitation during the fall
and winter months was ap-
proximately two per cent above
normal.

General Strike Starts
In Trieste Zone After
Killing Of 7 in Clash
BY the Associoted Press

TRIESTE, Mar. 11.-A general
strike started today in the whole
zone of the Allied Military Govern
ment In the Venezia Giulia district
at the head of the Adriatic where
an Allied boundary commission con-
tinued its secret hearings.
The strike was called in protest
to the Staying of two persons in
Servola, a suburb of Trieste, while
police were removing a Slovene flag
from church. The strikers blamed
the police.
Newspaper reporters we're barred
from sources of information on the
activities of the experts of the
United States, Russia, Great Britain
and France, who are investigating
the lian-Yugoslav boundary dis
pute.
Trieste was quiet with a Sunday
like atmosphere. All shops and busi-
nesses were closed by the strike.
The single Trieste Monday news
paper, II Progresso, organ of the
Italian-Slav Anti-Fascist Union,
headlined the killing under a ban
ner asserting, Civil Police Pass
From Provocation to Assassination. u
The paper also announced the gen.
eral strike.
The police of the Venezia Giulia
district were organized by the Brit
ish and those involved in the killing
were under command of a British
officer.
The deaths constituted the first
serious incident connected with po-
lice efforts to enforce an Allied Mil
itary Government proclamation linn
iting the display of flags and slo-
Gans.
| The military government issued a
statement saying the police hao
fired into the crowd in answer to g
shot from the crowd. The state
ment said 18 persons were injured
one seriously.
"The police were on legitimate
duty and their vehicles were sur.
rounded by large and hostile
crowd" the statement said. ''Tht
crowd threw stones and spat a,
them. The incident follows a sus.
tanned and distorted propaganda
campaign against the civil police IL
certain sections of the press"
! A Slav informant disputed the
statement, asserting that the police
fired into the crowd when a delega.
tion sought to confer with the Of
ficer. The Slav said actually foul
were killed and 80 were injured.
The commission announced i
would issue mo more communique
on its Investigations or plans, ant
that no press interviews would bs
given by either the commission a.
whole or its members.
