Attorney General Van Winkle recently held that the limitation did not apply to new people's utility districts or other new tax ing districts for the reason there was no way to determine a basis for the limitation. Van Winkle further held that a new district could not levy more than two mills tax a year or 10 mills in five years, based on the assessed valuation. This is pro vided in the 1939 legislative act. The opinion was requested by District Attorney Leland Brown of Wasco county and referred to the Wasco county people's utility district. A tax of $12,000, for operating costs of the utility district, was approved by Van Winkle. i ...,.. vis . Ml rf na-SCMrtLUaVKAWM C0,P0ITUNB.Bt Indian Junket Is Opposed by Chief PORTLAND. MaTch 14-UPW Chief Frank Totus would like to meet unauthorized Indians seeking funds for trips to Washington, DC, to discuss Celilo fishine vil lage conditions. Chief Totus. presiding officer of a council of 14 Yakima tribal chiefs, told chamber of commerce officials his colleagues ono-ftf turning the picturesque Indian village Into a "tourist camp." He also conferred with K. P. Cecil, Vancouver, supervisor of the Columbia national forest, on proposed employment of an In dian "guard in forested areas for the huckleberry season. yesterday advised County Treas urer Lawrence Rich that he could not legally refuse to pay county warrants in cash when this was available in his office, and sug gested that the practice of cash ing personal checks in the county treasurer's office "should be dis continued," in a requested opin ion sent to the treasurer. Rich said yesterday that state auditors had recommended that all county warrants be paid through banks as a matter of maintaining clearer records of each transaction, and he had sought to find out whether such a policy was consistent with the law. Question of cashing of person al checks by the county treasurer came to light during the recent trial of former County Treasurer vealed that such accommodation had been the policy of the treas urer's office for many years. Text of Page's letter read as loilows: "You have requested my opinion as to whether you can legally refuse to pay in actual money county warrants when pre sented to you, and also whether you should cash personal checks. "It is my opinion that, when the actual money is available to you, it is your duty to take ud these warrants and pay the act ual money for them, rather than to give a check upon a certain bank. "As to the matter of cashing personal cnecks where the trans action aoes not involve county business, I suggest that such prac tice be discontinued."
