HELENS — A change in system at the county assessor’! office this year will eliminate mailing of blanks for personal property taxpayers; instead a representative of the assessor will make a check of taxpayers of this type. Because of a fairly high turn over in rentals and in real estate in this county, it has been very difficult to keep the assessor's mailing list up to date, with the result that not all persons who should be paying personal prop erty taxes have been reached through the mails. Now with transportation more available it will take only about 90 days to make- a thorough check of taxable personal prop erty. “What ¡3 the automobile sit uation?” This question is asked many times every day in the offices of the smaller war plants cor poration.

Today everyone of the 110 district offices over the nation have at least one thousand appli cations on hand for automobiles. So it is readily apparent that there is little chance of obtaining the automobile so badly needed in business through government surplus. No surplus is sold for personal use. The next meeting of the lo cal veterans’ service committee will be held at the St. Helens high school at 1:30 p. m. on Jan- nary 17, 1946. Representatives of the veter ans and various service organi zations are invited to attend, as well as, world war I and II vet erans. The veterans administration will have a speaker on hand to d scuss national service life in surance and the smaller war plants corporation.
