Salem total tax millage was 61. 8 on assessed value which the lea gue estimates was 61 of true value, a considerable lower ration than prevailed in other citites. The average millage tax levied on city property in the state total fed (2 mills this year, the league reports, reducing the valuation basis to 60 per cent of the esti mated real value of property. On this basis direct taxes for the cost of government or city owned property cost $3.10 this year for each $100 of real value. The tax for city purposes ran highest in the aggregate of real property taxes paid by residents of Salem. This levy was 20.6 mills or 41 percent of the total tax col lected. School taxes took 30 per cent of the tax levied, while coun ty taxes including the county school fund tax cost only 19 per cent and state taxes only 10 per cent of the total levy.

Commercial St. Phone 5197 EVOLUTION THEORY eniiiLor A crowded audience at the First Christian church last night listen ed to Dr. Arthur L Brown, sur geon and bible lecturer of British Columbia, present a refutation, of evolution, an Idea he declared has been abandoned and riddled by outstanding scientists who until a few years ago were embracing It Brown will give the last sermon id his series tonight. Dr. Brown presented the com parative anatomy and embryonic arguments set up to prove evolu tion, then tore them down to prove his earlier statement that evolution is false in the light of science. Similarity in structure is no proof of blood relationship he said in his discussion of the anat omical argument. As a physician, he ridiculed the idea set up in support of evolu tion that the human embryo in its early stages has a tail which is discarded before birth, and de clared he himself once had oppor tunity to observe & six-weeks hu man embryo, showing bone for bone spinal vertebrae as the adult. In spite of the turn of many scientists against evolution, the comparative anatomy argument is used consistently in textbooks over the country, Dr. Brown de clared. Textbooks used in Salem and schools and elsewhere cling to the embryonic arguments, including the idea of a gill slit in the side of the seek. Brown declared, de spite the fact that Ernst Haeck al's diagrams were exposed as a fraud in 1907.
