A., will be off with a rush on the first of two parallel volleyball tournaments which will be conducted throughout fall and winter, and in which it is hoped to get over a hundred play ers actively interested. Volleyball will be handled on a different basis at the "Y" this winter in an effort to make it more interesting to beginners and men with slight experience in the game. As soon as the first tournament is well under way, a second tournament will be started, and the two events will divide evenly the six open days of the week from 5:30 o'clock in the after noon on till <5:45. The "Indian" league which opens Tuesday plays on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. The other league which is not yet named plays on Mon day. Wednesday and Friday of each week. There will be four teams in the Indian league, and either four or six in the other league, depending on how many new men decide to come in for volleyball between now and the opening of the tournament. Fntil the second tournament opens, the hours on Monday. Wednesday and Friday will be open for play to all who are not on the Indian league teams. The personnel of the Indian league was chosen Thursday night by the four captains who had been selected by the general volleyball committee. These captains—George Harris for the Black' feet. L. MoJumby for the Crees. Cyril Pennie for the Sioux and Dr. II. C. Hull for the Crows—chose each a team of BEFORE OFFICIAIS Attorney General and Tax Spe cialists Air Their Views at State Convention. Special to The Daily Tribune. Miles City, Oct. 16.—The second day's session of the Montana county officers convention was devoted to speech mak ing, the principal address being delivered by Attorney General S. C. Ford. The morning session opened with the address of John A. Edgerton, of the state board of equalization, who spoke upon the subject of revenue derived under the new law of taxation. He stated that it was apparent at this time that the revenue for state purposes under the so-cilled new law of 1919 will be substantially less than it was in 1017 and 1918 and made a comparison of the 1918 assessments by counties. He point ed out that in some counties the total of all county levies in 1919 year decreas ed, while in others it remained the same. He stated further that it is the duty of the state government to make taxes certain and not arbitrary and that the principle of classification is economically sound. He suggested that a partial segregation of the source of state and local rfcenue may be round advisable and that the constitution may have to be amended so that the state can derive exclusive revenues from certain classes of property that is now also subject to local taxation. A large duty, he said, will devolve upon a tax commission if the amend ments now before the people shall be come a part of the constitution, if it is not adopted the state board of equaliza j don will be called upon to act. Folowing the address by Mr. Edger | ton, Attorney General Ford spoke upon ; the general subject of the action of the j state board of equalization during the i past year. While his office has never t been asked as to the right of county commissioners to authorize the payment of expenses incurred in attending such gatherings by county officials, he said he concurs in the opinion rendered by a former attorney general to the effect that such matters are wholly within the descretion of the various boards and in response to inquiries on the part of of ficials from over the state he has so advised repeatedly. Ile denied that, his office has ever said that such payment and expenses arc; not legally allowable by county boards. The attorney general declared he be lieved that county assessors were to a certain extent justified in their unwill ingness, under the old law, to increase the tax rolls more nearly to the actual value of the property assessed because the state board of equalization had not seen fit to increase to that extent the various assessments which it was called upon to make in the past. Ile recalled that upon one occasion when the county commissioners had increased assessments to a limited extent upon the belief that the state board was going to increase its assessments, the board later on had only increased the assessments of the railroads 3 per cent and therefore had not kept faith with the assessors. The attorney general took the. posi tion that there are two kinds of prop erties to be taken into consideration in making the assessment of such corpora tions, the physical property and the tan gible property, reported by the value ad ded to the physical property through the unification of its various parts. The value of the property of the Mon tana Power company, he stated, as it is given to the state public utilities com mission for consideration as to the basis for making rates so that a just interest may be earned by the investment, is in the neighborhood of ,$80,000,000, The assessed valuation of the company's property, he said, as fixed by the board, is approximately $34,000,000. This lat ter sum, he explained, represents a rea sonable value for the property of the company, based upon the cost of pro ducing it, less about 3 per cent annually for depreciation. He explained that it was not particu larly against the power company alone that the case was brought, but that it affected all similar corporations. So, he said, that while there might be some difficulty and criticism this year, he felt that after the decision next year there would be no difficulty in making assess ments under the new tax laws, and as a result there would be no criticism of the state board of equalization then. In the afternoon session the first speaker was C. 11. Martien, assessor of Lewis and Clark county, who also spoke on the new tax laws. Ile was followed by A. E. Spriggs, chairman of the Hi eight men. These 32 players compose the Indian league. The rest of the regular players and such new recruits as may be enlisted, will play in the other league. Under existing arrangements two sets of three games each will be played on league nights, thus permitting, each team to play three times a week. Heretofore all players have been work ed together in one big league, with re sultant. handicap of beginning players who hesitated to come in where teams were dominated by experienced players. The selection of the 32 players took out most but not all of the older men, and left a nucleous of fast and experi enced men about whom the second tournament will be built. It is the hope of the volleyball committee to get the second tournament well under way the last of next week. Volleyball affairs this year at. the Y. M. C. A. are being handled by a gen eral committee composed of Chester C. Davis, chairman; Jack Abrams, Earl Crawford. Cyril Pennie, Bruce Johnson, and It. F. Clemens, with E. E.
