POLSON, LAKE COUNTY, MONTANA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1933. NUMBER 36. FARMERS ARE LIABLE FOR PROCESSING TAK Lewis Penwell, collector of internal revenue, states that it has been brought to the attention of the collector's office by the commissioner of internal revenue, Guy T. Helvering, that in many in- stances farmers and others are slaugh- tering hogs and selling the products to consumers without paying the process- ing tax. This is a violation of the Agri- cultural Adjustment Act and regulations which provide that any person who slaughters hogs and parts with owner- ship thereof by sale, barter, trade or ex- change must file appropriate returns and pay the processing tax thereon. Regulations 81 and Treasury Decision 4406 require processors to keep an ac- curate record of all pork processed dur- ing a given period. Returns are requir- ed to be filed on a monthly basis re- porting the processing tax accrued as a result of the commodity processed dur- ing the month. The tax is computed On the live weight of the hog -at the Urns of slaugh- ter. The tax applies even in the case of the producer who slaughters his own hogs and sells or otherwise disposes of all or any part of the products. Butchers who buy dressed hogs from farmers or others will be required to re- tain an accurate record of such pur- chases, as to the name and address of the parties from whom purchased and the exact weight of pork purchased from each party. Butcher shops !Mould live up to this requirement in every re- spect so as to protect themselves from a Possible liability. The only time when hogs may be slaughtered by any person without pay- ment qf the processing tax is when the producer slaughters or has slaughtered his own hogs for consumption by his own family, household or employees. In such case, where the producer has someone butcher the hog or hogs for him for use within his own household, be will be required to furnish the butcher or slaughter-house with an af- fidavit to that effect on a prescribed form. Heavy penalties are provided for vio- lation of the law or evasion of the tax and any person who ahrtighters hogs and sells all or any part thereof, should confer with the collector of internal revenue for his district who will have someone assist him in preparing and filing the required return. HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL GAMES The high school basketball team will meet Columbia Falls in the first sched- uled game of the season at the local gym tonight. Seventeen of the boys are out to make the first team, under Coach Wilson. They have 13 games sched- uled, which will end with a district tournament. Those who have seen the boys in action say they are material for an excellent high school team, and they are expected to win a good share of the games to be played. Following is the list of boys who are out for practice, and a schedule of the games to be played: Centers—Harrison, Keenan and Vern Johnson; forwards—Ed Johnson, Holt, Cook, Pronovost, Martin, Boettcher and Cramer; guards—H.

E.C.W. CAMP IS LOCATED FOR THE WINTER PLAN TO RAISE RELIEF FUNDS Speaker Dennis Dellwo, after a con- ference with Gov. Frank Cooney and members of the house committee on revenues and taxation, Monday, an- nounced a definite legislative program to meet the major requirement of the special legislative session—the relief of human suffering. The program, it was explained, pro- vides for the raising of apprakimately 61550,000, which would be distributed by the counties for relief purposes. As tentatively outlined, the program provides that the funds be derived from the following: The proposed sales or license tax, $500,000. Under the plan, the tax would be reduced from 1 per cent to one-fourth of 1 per cent of the gross proceeds. Diversion of $100,000 received from beer taxes and licenses. Receipts from the gambling license bill, estimated at $250,000. Receipt of $600,000 from an additional one -cent tax on gasoline or $300,000 from a one-half cent tax. Receipts of $100,000 from the Inherit- ance tax. The E.C.W. camp which was recently moved to Hell Roaring creek, is being moved to its permanent winter location on the Moss corner, a short distance east of Were, this week. Major C. K Coe has authorized the purchase of 5,000 feet of lumber, which will be used In building floors and sides for the tents. Preliminary stork on the road from the power house to the dam is in progress and Umber Is being cut for a new bridge. If the weather permits, the crew will attempt to finish the road this winter. ANNUAL BUSINESS MEETING OP LUTHERAN minim Gasoline is the one necessity which is never overlooked when new tax meas- ures are considered. Already there is a state tax of 5 cents per gallon on gaso- line, and the federal government levys a tax. The lawmakers would add still another cent. It seems that the legis- lators forget that the gasoline motor is a necessity and that much of the freight and passenger traffic of the state is han- dled by motors. The railroads were a favorite source of taxation until they were bankrupt, and the same thing will happen to cars and motors if the law- makers insist on piling on additional taxes. The annual business meeting of the Poison Lutheran church was held Tues- day afternoon of this week,. Reports were given by the pastor, the board of trustees, and the treasurer. The election of officers resulted as follows George Feetvog. re-elected secretary, Andrew Peterson, re-elected treasurer, Walter Jensen, elected trus- tee for a period of three years; Hildur Reksten, re-elected organist Always a good show at the liberty. NEW FORD V-8 IS ON DISPLAY AT CLINE MOTORS Cline Motors has one of the new 1934 Ford V-8 cars on display at the show room. More than 7,000 Ford dealers in the United States have this popular car on display today. As explained by John Cline, the new Ford incorporates numerous improve- ments in engine and chassis design, with greater power and speed, quicker starting and acceleration, smother per- formance and more miles per gallon, plus a new built-in system of ventila- tion. The improvements in engine perform- ance are the result of the use at a new dual down-draft carburetor and dual Intake manifold, which increase the en- gines power and provide a remarkable Improvement in pickup. Distinctive lines of the Ford V-8 have been refined in the 1934 car by a newly designed radiator shell, grille and other features. A new enamel finish is used on all bodies, while the fenders on the de lure cars now are in color to har- monize with the body colors. Eleven body types are available. All body types are equipped with inlets/ glass windshields, while the de luxe body types are fitted with safety glass throughout. Cine Motors invites the public to call and inspect the new 1934 Ford at the garage show room. TWENTY-ONE TONS OF SOCKEYE SALMON TAKEN According to Ben Cramer, who has had charge of the nets during the run of sockeye salmon, he and the other men had taken 211 / 2 tons of the fifth from the lake, on the east shore. Mr. Cramer said they took 10,773 fish of an average weight of four pounds and these fish were distributed among 364 families. The best day's catch was on November 25, when they bottled out 1,643 fish, and since that time the catch grew lighter each day until December 7, when only 250 fish were taken. Twenty-one and a half tow of fish should be enough to supply all the needy of this section with that class of food for some time to come. Mr. Cramer and his helpers should be commended fot their Week, which was done without remuneration. MAIL EARLY IS WARNING JUDGE A. L.

The lawmakers would add stillanother cent. It seems that the legis-lators forget that the gasoline motor isa necessity and that much of the freightand passenger traffic of the state is han-dled by motors. The railroads were afavorite source of taxation until theywere bankrupt, and the same thing willhappen to cars and motors if the law-makers insist on piling on additionaltaxes.
The annual business meeting of thePoison Lutheran church was held Tues-day afternoon of this week,.Reports were given by the pastor, the
board of trustees, and the treasurer.The election of officers resulted as

TWENTY-ONE TONS OF SOCKEYESALMON TAKEN
According to Ben Cramer, who hashad charge of the nets during the runof sockeye salmon, he and the othermen had taken 211/2 tons of the fifthfrom the lake, on the east shore. Mr.Cramer said they took 10,773 fish of anaverage weight of four pounds andthese fish were distributed among 364families. The best day's catch was onNovember 25, when they bottled out1,643 fish, and since that time the catchgrew lighter each day until December7, when only 250 fish were taken.Twenty-one and a half tow of fish
