WILL NOT SEEK TO There need be no fear that the Lau relhurst company or purchasers of lots In the addition will attempt to set aside the assessment of the addition in 1909 and 1910 because portions of the tract wera assessed as lots and blocks in stead of acreage, according to a state ment mad yesterday by Paul C Mur phy, vice president of the Lauhelrhurtt company. . ,. "Tor the benefit of Henry K. Reed, who seems disturbed lest the Laurel hurst company take advantage of an alleged technicality In assessing its property and apply to the oourts to have the 1909 and 1910 assessments set aside and tax money refunded," said Mr; Murphy, "I desire to say that all taxes on Laurelhurst property for those years have been paid and no attempt will bo made to have any part of It refunded. .: - s '.. '"The north half of Laurelhurst was assessed as lots and blocks a short time before the plats were filed, Solely for the convenience of Individual lots in the addition. If Laurelhurst had been as sessed as acreage In 190$ and 1910. it would have been almost Impossible for 4 lot owner to ascertain the amount of his taxes, and this would have Caused great Inconvenience to both the assessor and tax collector. "If Mr. Reed ts right in his con' structlon of the law, the next leglsla ture should amend the statute to con' form with the construction now given it by the assessors, for undoubtedly the assessors are doing the proper thing.

Alt but the musio and the words were reproduced In Mrs. Rose Bloch-Bauer's singing of the "Star 8pangled Banner" on the temporary stage at the state building site, and it was what might have been called Irresistible Impulse that lifted diners to tbelr feet when the orchestra caught the musio and set them singing:- , Then conquer we must ' .
