Snow HuIts Road
Work on Logon Pass

WEST GLACIER - Two and
three feet of new snow has halted
highway construction ON Logan
pass, continental divide crossing
for Glacier National Parks Going
to-the-Sun highway.
An eight-inch snowfall resulted
in the pass being closed to traffic
Nov. 8. However S. Birch and
Sons, Great Falls, continued with
their contract that includes wild
ening the highway just west of
the pass and scaling operations
along the Garden Wall.
Last Tuesday with snow two to
three feet deep saw Birch crews
move down from the pass area.
The S125,3 contract also includ-
es obtaining gravel from McDon-
aid creek and stockpiling. This was
continuing at the foot of the Gar
den Wall below the deep snow
area. Birch was employing 20 men
with Guy Haney, superintendent.
On Glaciers east side, McLaugh-
lin Inc, is IS per cent completed
with the 1888 mile reconstructed
road between Babb and Many Gla-
cier. Weather has resulted in this
S414,798 contract being shut down
until next spring.

Plan No Further Elk Season

No further open season on elk
or deer is planned for the Flat
head. This information was OBJ
tanned Thursday noon by the Hun
cry Horse News from the State
Fish and Game department in
Helena.
There is an extended open sea-
son on deer of both sexes in Lin
coin county. Closure will be on 48
hours public notice.
West and south boundaries of
this open season are described as
u. S. No. 2 from Libby to the Lin
coin county line; east boundary
continues on the county line north
to Elk divide, and north boundary,
the Kootenai-Wolf creek divide
down to Jennings and along the
river back to Libby.
The 1854 elk season in the Flat
head was below average, and con-
siderably below last years kill OF
1,240.
Closing up the Martin City-Cor-
am eastside checking station into
the South Fork, game wardens,
Jay Penney and Dick Motichka
had count of 296 elk brought out
with 1918 hunters in. Last year
Penney and Motichka checked out
352 elk with 1859 hunters in.
These include the early season kill
on the north end for both years.
Also checked out this year were
4 black bear, l grizzly, 9 goat, IL
white tailed deer, % mule deer.
On the west side road, Mr.. and
Mrs. Ernest Hatton from their
station just above Hungry Horse
Dam had go elk, 3 deer and l bear
checked out with 684 hunters in
during the season.
An indication of the 1854 hunt
ing season was the annual Lee ex-
pedition into the Pentagon section
of the South Fork. Tom Lee, Col
umbia Falls, has been hunting
there since 1911 skipping just 1851.
With him this fall were his bro
ther, Bill Lee, Cheney, Wash, and

Opposes Blanket
Tax Assessment

KALISPELL-The State Board
of Equalization directive that all
counties in Montana increase
1855 assessments 20 per cent
would be unfair to the Flathead,
believes Grant S. Campbell,
county assessor.
The state action was based on
a situation where many Montana
tax assessments are based on OBJ
solete values dating back to 1919.
Campbell points out that the
Flathead has completed county
wide reappraisal. The county's to-
tai assessed valuation in 1854 was
S62,264,0O2 compared to $38, AGO.
713 in 1947. Part of this increase
was from additional construction
in the Flathead and part from re-
appraisal of values.
The Board of Equalization in
Helena stated that counties which
fail next year to show the 20 per
cent increase will be denied allo-
cations of statewide assessments
such as railroads and utilities.
Neighboring counties will be used
as yardstick to determine COM
pliance.
Opposed to such action is the
Montana County Assessors assoc
iation. The association says the
blanket 20 per cent increase is
unavoidable, unfair and inequit-
able, and that the Board of Equal
ization is without authority to is
sue the directive"
If assessments are increased on
a blanket basis, mill levles can
be reduced on a blanket basis.
However the transition would pre-
sent complications.
There is considerable Unequal
ity and as a result unfairness IN
the real estate and personal prop
erty tax structure. The State Board
of Equalization believes a blanket
20 per cent increase would help.
The assessors association dis
agrees.
