Edwards, ON THE THBj BEST Military Duty Many yxopeity owners pay unnecessary tax dollars every year because they fail to examine as sessments and do not realize that they may be appealed.

State Tax Commissioner Samuel B. Stewart asserts. Stewart, commissioner in charge of assessments and taxation, made the assertion in commenting on pending session of the boards of equalization in each Oregon county. The boards meet for three weeks starting on the second Monday in May, this year May 1L Unfamiliarity with the equali zation boards and the work done by the boards has been blamed for failure of taxpayers to take advantage of appeal privileges. The board consists of the county judge, an appointive member of the county budget committee, and a non-office holding property owner.

Purpose of the board is to protect property owners from over assessment or unequal assessments. Under the law the board must meet to hear any appeal a taxpayer wishes to make against the assessments levied against his property. The appeal, based upon either overvaluation, inequality of illegality, need not be presented by legal counsel. Besides the board of equali zation there are four other meth ods which a taxpayer may take to reduce an essessment on either real or personal property. They are: (1) protests to assessor prior to second Monday in May for correction and reduction of tentative assessment; (2) Appeal to state tax commission within 20 days after notice of action of board of equalization; (3) appeal to the Circuit Court for relief; (4) appeal to the State Supreme Court WEAR SAFETY PANTS, KILO, Hawaii Wl Cane Cut ters on the Hilo Sugar plantation wear safety trousers as well as safety glasses.

The Agrarian Party leader informed King Frederik IX Saturday night he and his Cabinet would resume their posts.

Ihey resigned April 22 after the Sicialists eked out a two-seat lead over the Agrarian coalition with the, Conservatives in special parliamentary elections. Eriksen's action brought to an end a political tussle unique in that all the leading parties tried desperately to stay out of the government. After Eriksen's right wing coalition resigned, the Socialists rejected King Frederik's request that they form a government because they could not muster enough support from smaller parties to be sure of a majority. The leftists said the Eriksen government should continue in office until after a referendum set for May 26 on a proposed new Constitution. The new Parliament was elected with the main task of approving that Constitution, if 45 per cent of the people approve it This peculiar impasse threatened to go on indefinitely until Eriksen Saturday got assurances from the Liberals and the Single Tax Party that their total of.

22 seats in Parliament could be counted solidly behind the coalition's aggregate of 59 seats. One member of the joint ways and means committee here Sat urday said he could not recall any authority for the Walker- Semon letter to the Higher Board of Education.

From jurors who actually have served in Circuit Court trials during one term are drawn seven to comprise the next quarter's county grand jury. This unit normally meets once a month or less frequently, to study criminal charges and hear evidence since all persons charged with felonies are entitled to grand jury hearings and to study the conduct of public institutions and offices: The grand jury can indict persons accused of crimes, sending them into court, or can drop charges against them. In its other investigations it can make recommendations or can issue indictments of public officials for malfeasance or misconduct Five of the seven must agree to indict There also is a federal grand jury, meeting once or twice yearly. It can comprise from 16 to 23 persons, drawn from the regular jury panel. Though few people might be interested in regular jury duty, at $5 per day, some could have the idea of getting on a jury list with the hope of serving on some special case.

To decrease the possibility of this, which has much less chance of success than when Oregon was young, the law prohibits volunteering for jury duty, or trying to get yourself or another on the panel. You can be fined $300 for trying. Mrs. Kobaiskie Rites Wednesday Statesman News Service SILVERTON Funeral services for Mrs. Minnie M.

The letter, received by the State Board of Higher Education following adjournment of the Legislature, was signed by State Senator Dean Walker, Independence, and Representative Henry Semon, Klamath Falls, co-chairmen of the joint ways and means group. The recent Legislature appropriated $2,200,000 for construction of a new dental college and Walsh said he understood any money received from sale of the present dental college property, estimated between $300,000 and $350,000, would be used for equipping the new institution. Plans Delayed As a result of the Walker-Semon letter the Board of Higher Education, at a recent meeting in Portland, delayed plans for construction of the dental school pending a conference with members of the State Emergency Board. Several members of the Emergency Board also are members of the current joint ways and mean committee. The Emergency Board, under the law, has authority to make deficiency appropriations during interims between legislative sessions.

The Emergency Board has no authority to appropriate funds for new. projects. Hopes to Settle Issue Walsh said the Board of Higher Education would ask for a meeting of the Emergency Board early this month. "We may be able to come out of the Emergency Board meeting with some information that will permit us to proceed with the dental college construction," Walsh averred. Walsh said his board waa anxious to proceed with pre liminaries to the dental college construction as soon as possible.

The dental college is a part of the State Board of Higher Education building program approved by the 1953 Legislature for the 1953-55 hiennium. Walsh stopped over in Salem to confer with Governor Paul Patterson who left late Saturday for Washington, D. to attend a conference of state governors called by President Eisenhower.
