 l The amendment adds the word- ling: except that unpatented min- ing claims and nonproducing pat tented mining claims, which are also iunimproved, may he valued at the ,price paid the United States there- for. or at a flat rate fixed by the .Legislature, but if the surf ace lground is used for other than mln- ing purposes, and has a separate and independent value for sucf |other purposes, or if there are im- movements or machinery or other lproperty thereon of such character las to be deemed part of the real !tv then the same shall be taxeo iaccordine to the true and full value tthersof.

 Sheep in Storm Areas
(By The Associated Press)

More emergency funds for the storm stricken western plains states were sought in Congress today as airplanes flew ever the snow-cov- cred rangelands dropping hay to thousands of starving cattle and sheep. .
 The first cash aid for the blizzard swept areas came yesterday from President Truman who made avail able $100,O00 for immediate aid for snowbound Indians and livestock.
 The funds are for relief in the Dakotas, Nebraska, Utah and Me- vada-the areas which have been hit by severe snow storms and cold weather for the last several weeks. About a million sheep and tens of thousands of cattle are stranded in the desolate areas of the western ranges.
 FUNDS FOR RELIEF But western Congressmen want more funds-at least $500,000 to help bring relief to the storm area. The airborne operations to take food to the starving cattle and sheep which started in Nevada and Utah yesterday appeared success. There were IT big C-82 planes available for the hay lift from Fallon, in west ern Nevada, to Ely, New, 260 miles to the east. Stockmen described the air force operations a 100 percent success. The first of the big flying bcxcars''- five tons of hay l-dropped the food for 10000 sheep ion three ranches in 200-mils radius.
 The cold air from Canada covered most of the northern and western sections of the country.

 der, Wyo.
 The U. S. Weather Bureau re-
 ported that the unprecedented cold weather" brought new low tempera- lures for January to Spokane

Senate Leaders Fume
On Arms Aid Program
By the A.,oe;oted Press

~ fHs SssSstotSu ffess
Some resentment smouldered in
the Senate. today against the State
Departments pressure for action
on a $1,130,000. 900 arms for Eur
ope program.
Certain Senate leaders said
privately the administration is
asking for too much too fast
without regard to the political
timing" of the requests.
There has been talk that Presi-
dent Truman will send the arms
aid plan to Congress before the
Senate has given its approval to
the North Atlantic treaty.
Secretary of State Acheson has
told Congress the arms program
must be approved at this session
to maintain the United States
firm policy" against Russia.
The Senate leaders who spoke
to a reporter said they feel this
action will tend to put too much
emphasis on the arms plan--and
thus lend weight to the arguments
Nf treaty critics who say the pact
Is nothing more than another
military alliance.
Senate leaders had planned
earlier to get the pact ratified by
a two-thirds vote of the Senate
and then take up the arms pro-
gram.
BY moving in this fashion, they
felt the treaty would escape the
opposition which has built up
against the arms plan. But now
they fear the two issues may be-
come so intermingled that greater
opposition will be aroused against
the treaty.
