Strong showings were made by Occidental Petroleum, General Electric, Magnavox, INA General Motors and Chrysler, the latter reporting record earnings. Prices near the close included: Chrysler, up at General Motors, up at 87; Occidental Petroleum, up General Electric, up at Montgomery Ward, up at and Canteen up at 31.

The EA zoning is supposed to protect farm land adjoining subdivisions from the soaring tax assessments created by subdivision of ranchlands throughout the state. The ranchers have argued that tax assessments should be based on income produced by the controversial land; Assessor Taylor told the Record-Searchlight the law forces him to base his assessments on the market value of the land.

Owners of small timber tracts have bitterly complained that the county taxes them far more than it does the big timber panies. Richard Millington, a Mount Shasta accountant, and Orbell Apperson Mount Shasta newspaper publisher, complained that their small parcels of cutover timberland in the Mount Shasta area were assessed at $50 an acre while the adjoining timberland of Kimberly Clark is assessed at' $12 an acre. Fritz Hodge, the county's timberland appraiser, explained that appraisals of small forested tracts include the value of both the timber and the land, while larger holdings are sometimes appraised on the basis of the land without the timber, since lumber firms are granted a 40- year tax exemption after merchantable timber has been removed from their lands. Assessor Taylor also said that all land in the county is reassessed at three-year and some land has not been reappraised. The supervisors also heard a complaint from Mrs.

Agnes De Rose of Yreka, Lawrence Newton of Horse Creek, and Mrs. Louise Vanderbilt of Edgewood about taxation on their small timber tracts. A complaint by Mrs. Thelma Scott that her pumice mining claims near Tennant had been overappraised at $34,785 was countered by Appraiser Fred Fleck, who said he's learned that U.S. Pumice Co.

had purchased six other claims from Mrs. Scott at a substantial figure and that assessment of the remaining claims was based on that sale. The supervisors are studying the complaints and will issue rulings later. Weather during the Wednesday closing was combined with eagerness of traders to get aboard a "peace bandwagon" and gave the Big Board record first-hour trading of 7.66 million shares. Rumors that a Vietnam bombing halt was imminent stimulated emotional buying at the start, brokers said, but as time went on without confirmation of the rumors, traders began to take profits.

Gains outnumbered losses by some 350 issues late in the day, a less enthusiastic showing then the 3-to-1 ratio on the upside early in the session. National Dairy, up nearly a point, paced the list on activity. Bristol-Myers, up about a point, was boosted near the top of the most-active lost by a single block of 510,000 shares. Occidental Petroleum, very active and up about 3, had good news about shipments from its Libyan oil findings. Among other very active stocks, General Electric rose about while Montgomery Ward, General Instrument and United Utilities preferred advanced more than a point each.

Canteen Corp. gained about 2 and International Telephone 1. Prices on the American Stock Is Exchange remained well ahead despite some profit taking.

If the station isn't sold by then, he said, the stockholders will retain it.

KVIP's stockholders, known as the Shasta Broadcasting met in San Francisco Monday to accept corporation stock previously owned by Carl McConnell of Redding. The stockholders also elected Morris K. Cohn of Oakland as corporation president. He succeeds Mrs. Leah McConnell, who with her husband sold her stock in the company to remaining stockholders.

McConnell has divested himself of interest in Shasta Broadcasting because his company, California Northwest Broadcasting, has bought KAHR radio. Grant works for McConnell. Where was that fire?
