The Board of Equalization held a pro

fix a Just and proper amount for lis appraise

much as a combine had been formed the tis

dent Talbot, on th other hand, maintained
that only parts of the different properties
were being utilized. A motion to fix the as

In Vnlon Pacific official circles the resig
nation of Mr. Hu'rhlson Is expected to be
followed by the resignations ol one or more
I other prominent officials. "It U and has
I been for some time an open secret that the
relations of certain of the official heads of
the Vnlon Pacific with President Burt have
not been as harmonious as they might have
been," said a well Informed official In dls
curelng the matter. "That Mr. Hutchison
should have resigned for any reason of this
kind, however, does not seem reasonable.
If he has ever Incurred tbe displeasure of
President Burt none of the president's as
