Property Tax
Protested
Weyerhaeuser Timber Company
has protested the assessed valu
ation placed on some of its Klam-
alh County property for tax pur
poses.
In a letter to the Klamath Conn
ly Equalization Board, it objects
to the way assessed values were
determined for its "movable
machinery and equipment and in
ventories."
The market value of these mov
able properties was set at 100 per
cent of their actual worth.
The company maintains market
value should he set at only 90
per cent of true worlh the rate
which is applied to all stationary
property in the county.
If the 90 per cent were used on
all lis Klamath County properties.
Weyerhaeuser would pay about
$9,000 less in taxes next fiscal
year.
A suit is now pending in the
Stale Supreme Court, filed by the
Crown-Zellerbach concern against
the State Tax Commission, which
seeks the uniform 90 per cent rate.
The Klamath County Equaliza
tion Hoard has written the com
mission, asking the status of the
suit and the commission's present
policy on determining market val
ues.
The board, which has the autho
rity to uphold either Ihc assessor
or the protestor, has followed the
commission's past policy of the
100 per cent rate on movable prop
erty and BO per cent on station
ary.
In all, the board has received
18 protests to assessed valuations,
including one from the Medford
Neon Company, objecting to Ihc
loo per cent rat on signs which
it considers movable in this county.

Nursery Ships
Huge Tree Total
A whopping total ot 13.389.800
trees was shipped by the Col. W. B.
(ireeley Forest Nursery of the In
dustrial Forestry Association in the
six and a half months ended April
10. This was the largest crop in
the 17-year history or the nursery,
which is located at Nisqually,
Washington, and brings its total
output of trees for artificial refor
estation to the 93 million mark
This year's crop was used to
plant trees on over 24.000 acres of
tree farm land in western Oregon
and Washington, according to
W. D. llagenstcin. executive vice
president of the association.
Coupled with the excellent for
est fire prevention record of the
last 15 years, the nursery's trees
have now restored more than 170,-
000 acres of once idle land." llag
enstcin said. "The industry had
also direct-seeded, mostly by heli
copter, more than 40.000 acres this
past winter. ,
llagenstein pointed out that na
tural resccding has brought nearly
10 million acres back into young
trees over Ihe last 50 years, but
he predicted a conlinous increase
in artificial reforestration.

Irrigation District president, is "to
continue to press for a solution
in which the maximum areas of
land would be placed in private
ownership.
decision to lorm such a com
mittee was made by represents
fives of the interested groups at
a recent joint meeting.
Proponents of additional home-
steading have long maintained that
too much good farm land has been
reserved for wildlife by the fed
eral government.
In other action yesterday, Klam
ath County Court rescinded a May
7 action in which it granted vaca
tion rights for a portion of the
Midland townsite, eight miles
south of here
Four interested residents ap
peared before the court and pro
tested its action. A check of the
legalities involved was made and
it was found that owners adjacent
to Ihe land to be vacated had
not been notified of the proposal.
Adjacent owners must give con
sent. The court set May 28 for an
additional hearing. In the mean
time, the district attorney will con
tact the adjacent owners.
Land vacations involve changing
the area concerned from a lot -and-block
status to an acreage or
agricultural status, which results
in a lower assessed valuation for
tax purposes and eliminates the
necessity of reserving portions for
roads.
Appearing to protest were Mr.
and Mrs. Raymond Gray, Joe
rrost and H. c. Casebier. 1
