Page TweTv THE ET7GE5TE RE GISTEB-GTT ABD TAX DELINQUENCY FOR 1930 IN LIE MILS 5494.000 Lane county's tax deliwinency for the year 1030 is $ lM.IM.LOo, accord ing to figures computed by Lloyd How, deputy sheriff in charge of tax collections and released Thursday. This figure represents a delinquen cy of 21.0 per cent, n alight decrcnue from the estimated 21.3 per cent fig ured previously. The total tax charged for 1030 was J2.2fiS.750.02. Of this amount the sheriff collected and turned over to the countv treasurer $1.7fl4.3n5.fW. Added to this last amount is $1,240.37 collected by the county nssesor, mim ing a total collection of $1,705,543.05 for the taxes of 1030. This delinquency is as of Dec. HI, 1031, when the 1030 taxes became de linquent. The delinquency of 21.0 per cent is a high rnte, according to Mr. Howe, who pointed out that the de linquency for 1020 was 11.8 per cent. The delinquency of Lane county this year Is about the snine as thnt of Multnomah county, he said. The actual shortage of county funds for this year will not be $104,333.05, however, it was explained by County Judge Barnard, since pnyments of back taxes coming in this year may be added to the regular payment of 1030 taxes. These back taxes reduce the countv delinquency to approxi mately $300,000. However, if delinquent pnyments do not come in before July, tho county may be forced to shut down county . road work when their funds run out, Judge Barnard said.

Communication with the party was established again Thursday morning and i'red Bartels, manager of the mine, hu id that three of the four packages of food hud been dug from the snow. One package landed within 50 feet of the Evening Stur cabin, whilo two others had been dropped at the' Bohemia cliiim a quarter of a mile distant. Tho heavy binulles had bitten tea feet into the snow in their drop from the plane, Bnrtels said, but hnil made easily-found craters as they hit the crusted surface. liartels was informed as to location of the fourth package and the party was to dig it out Thursday morning. Five men were in the putty which made tho two flights Wednesday. They wero Sander, Hubi, John Burtles, 70 year old father of the mine manager, Bill Harlots, tho manager's brother, and this writer. Koarlv six hours were spent in the air ou the three flights. The first trip Tuesday was niailo at an altitude of 10.000 feet and even Bohemia moun tain could not be located in the treacherous clouds. Tho two-hour flight Wednesday morning was made at a lower ultitiido and tho mountain wns sighted sticking ils snout through tho clouds, but tho mist and fog pic vented tho fliers from getting through to the claim. Two inure hours were spent m the Wednesday afternoon flight on which the ship finally broke through. A huge bonfire, which sent up a cloud of black smoke from the min ing property nided in the location of tho Evening Star parly. A fog bank that had settled in the hollow be tween Grouse mountain, Bohemia mountain was partially cleared away as the ship cleared tho saddle be tween Bohemia and rlensiint View mountains and nosed down for tho third attempt. Tho livening Stnr mine could not ho located for a tinio however, and it wns decided to drop two ot the bund les at tho Bohemia claim. Sanders back In the ship, relayed tho signal for the throw. This writer, halfway back ill Hie ship, reliivd the signal bnck by yelling, and Hobi, who was secured with a life belt at the back of the plane, pushed the benvy bun dlo out of the door, giving it a downwnrd thrust at the same time to prevent its striking the tail of the plane. The ship wns then at an altitude of 400 feet and the package, which weighed hetween one and two hundred pounds, had gained tremendous speed us it hit the surface of the snow. Sander zoomed the ship upward to clear the saddle between Bohemia and Fuirview mountains, and then made the circle again. Another signal from the pilot, another yell from this writer and nnothcr push on the part of Hohi sent n second package on its downward plunge. According to (lie mine mnnager, the two packages landed within 40 feet of each other on the Bohemia claim. Sender, of- course, may bo credited witli the excellent "bombing," hut both this writer, with ois steliur yell ing, and Herman Hobi, with his superb pushing, are trying to steal some of the credit. After two of the packages hod been thrown, tho Evening Star bonfire was spotted through the fog, and Sander nosed into it. Figures could be seen in tile snow below ns the pilot gave his third signal, tho writer gave his third yell, and Hohi gave his third push. This package, according to information from tlie mine, landed within less than 50 feet of the cabin. The process was repeated but the miners said they did not see the fourth package fnll. They wero later given instructions as to its location nnd were to dig it out Thursday. It was an hilarious party that plowed around over tho snow in search of tho packages, according to the information from tho camn. A lit tle flour nnd a few tins of vegetables wero all that remnined of their food supply nnd they had been faced with n haxardou trip on foot out of the mountains if the plane had failed to get through with the food.

With plenty of food on hand now, tho Evening Stnr party will continue their mining operations and wait for a break in the weather. The danger which would have faced the nnrtv had they tried to make the trip out of the mountains without food, could easily be seen irom uie plane. The snow, which was sprinkled lightly like salt in the foothills, became deeper as the plane swept in towards Bohemia mountain, nnd was spread like cake icing over- the hills and val leys that led up to the mining claim. A magnificent sight, it proved also a rather terniying one as tnose in tue plane contemplated such a trip on skiis or snowshocs. Fred Bartels, mining foremnn, ex pressed his gratitude to the Eugene fliers who hnd brought relief to his party when he communicated the find ing of the food Thursday morning. "Things were looking pretly tough up here," he said. "When the plane droned around in the clouds and fog overhead on its first two trips, and then turned and headed bnck to Eu gene without dropping the priceless packages of food, we felt as though we were losing the best friend we ever had. "When the packages finally came nnd we could sit down to n square meal npnin after several days of n very restricted menu, I can tell you thnt that meal tasted better thau any we ever enjoyed."
