TAXES ON PROPERTY OUT
 OF CITY DUE FEB. 1 50

A corfiag to section of chap ter 10. Session Laws of Alaska .1949, for the calender year of 1949. and each calendar year thereafter there is hereby levied, and there shall be assessed. collected and paid, a tax on all property in the Territory at the rate of one per centum of the true and full value thereof.
 MT. Fred Hanford, chairman of the board of assessment and equal izatiOn said he believed this in- cluded all restricted title land Whether or not the tax can be col lected on such land will be up to the Tax Commissioner and possibly have to be settled by the courts, MT. Hanford believed.
 Property inside the city limits wll be handled by the city this year as in past years
 According to the act the proper ty outside the city is initiated on the self assessment formula but un- der assessment by individuals on their own property, such assess ments are subject to official cor rectiOn by the assessor at any time and will give rise to liability to pay any deficiency levy involved.
 MT. Hanford thought that the assessment forms would be sent out by July l. According to the regu- lations they must be filled out in duplicate and returned by July 15 this year and by March 15 in the following years.
 It was Mr. Hanfords belief that the board of equalization would meet around the first of Novem- Der for this area at time and place to be announced later.
 By the regulation the taxes for 1949 will be due and payable by February l, 1850. The taxes for each year will be due by the first day of February on the following year.
