Metcalf, member of the Ways
and Means Committee which has
jurisdiction over the Social Security
program, noted that II million Amer
leans are now insured. More than 72
per cent of those 65 or older are
drawing old-age and survivors insur-
ance benefits or will be able to when
they retire. If the family bread
winner should die, the mothers and
children in 9 out of 10 families can
count on monthly survivors insur-
ance benefits.
'The more than $33 million in So
cial Security benefits paid to Mon
tanans each year is major source
Of income to the retired, disabled,
widows and Children Metcalf said.
1T also is substantial factor in our
ocal economic picture.
"While these figures show the i'm
oortance of the social security pro-
gram, they also highlight the need
for further improvement. The aver
age benefit in February was only SCI,
sar short of the minimum required
;or the basic necessities
Metcalf has sponsored several bills

IN which preliminary hearings were
leld this year, would add health bene-
its to the Social Security Act.

This week the House Ways and
Means Committee, of which Con-
gressman Metcalf is member, began
digging deep into the federal tax
system.
In the next six weeks, the tax
writing committee will hear dozens
of experts testify on reducing taxes
without sacrificing revenue needed
for responsible financing of govern
ment.
The group twill investigate the
practical possibilities of broadening
the tax base sufficiently to permit
significant reductions in individual
and corporation income tax rates,
without sacrificing the revenues
needed by the government, in the
words of the committee chairman,
Congressman Mills (D-Ark.).
Mills said tax reform must seek,
among other things, a tax climate
more favorable to economic growth,
greater equity through closer adher-
ence to the principle that equal in
comes should bear equal tax liabili-
ties. assurance that the degree of
progression in the distribution of tax
burdens accords as closely as possible
with widely-held standards of fair
ness, an overall tax system which
contributes significantly to maintain
ing stability in the general price level
and stable and high rate of use of
human and material resources, tax
system which interferes as little as
possible with the operation of the
free market mechanism in directing
resources into their most productive
uses, and greater ease of compliance
and administration.
"The present tax SYSTEM" Mills
said, "is criticized as failing to
achieve these detectives"
Nearly 12a million persons, 5O,-
416 of them Montanans, were receiv-
ing old-age, survivors and disability
insurance benefits at the end of Feb
ruary 1859 at monthly rate of $3.50
The monthly total in Mon
tana was $3,097,255.
This report came to Montanans in

ITO PROVIDE FAIRLY
ADEQUATE CORRECTION"

"This revision of average assessed
values is based upon the present
equalization picture, statewide, and
is designed to provide fairly adequate
correction of that admittedly bad pic
ture, by erasing the extremely low
values and replacing them with values
which are in better balance with the
counties that have already accom-
plished a better job in assessment
and equalization.
"The Board has sought to attain
this result in the counties con-
cerned through an adjustment OF
average assessed values in direct
proportion to the average wheat .
yields.
"The average present assessed val
ues for non-irrigated farm lands are

when similar comparison is extend

titled land is being assessed much

'There has been noteworthy ex-
pansion in the market value of these
non-irrigated titled lands throughout
the State in the last 20 years. Some
of the counties have recognized the
existence of this new wealth and
have increased the assessed values
of such lands within the last few
years. Most of the counties have not
done so, with the result that in such
counties dry titled land is assessed
as low or lower than as of forty
years ago. This low assessment sit

NEGATIVE ACTION" WOULD BE
EXTREMELY UNFAIR"

''It has been urged by many" the
Boards letter continues, "that this
much needed equalization be post
poned until the program of land
classification be completed, but such
negative action is extremely unfair
to taxpayers in those counties that
have taken steps to equalize assess
ments and becomes more unfair each
year. Our classification program has
been under way for nearly five years.
At least three more years are needed
to finish it.
However, this big gap in assess
ment and equalization techniques
should be corrected now and improved
each succeeding year. Montana's laws
in regard to assessment and equaliza-
ton of property values and uniform
ity of taxation are all in effect as
of now. while our land classification
program is being accomplished.
''That program did not call for
a standstill in the solution of assess
ment and equalization problems.
The responsibility and duty of
County Assessors, Boards of Coun-
ty Commissioners and the State
Board of Equalization does not
lapse at any time."
