Depression Hits Deer Hunting Too The figures of the number of deer legally killed in California have been compiled by the state fish and game commission, and they disclose that there were 7425 less deer killed in the state this season than were brought down in 1931. There were 18,380 tags returned to the commission this year, as against 25,805 for last season. The decrease of something like 33 per cent is no indication that deer are getting scarcer in California, for there are some 400,000 roaming the mountain range and lowlands of this state accord- Tau chapter is the nineteenth in California.

Public Utilities' Taxes Too Little Readjustment Average of $1.85 On Local Property Advocated by Research Bureau Comprehensive analysis of state taxes on public utility property, and local property taxes, as included in the report of the tax research bureau just published, discloses wide variations in relative burdens. On an average public utility property is taxed at $1.54 on each $100 of actual value, as contrasted with a burden of $1.85 for $100 of actual value on property taxed locally. Since different gross receipts rates are applicable to the several types of utilities the Bureau has made separate findings which may be used for legislative equalization of rates. Thus, the report shows the minimum utility burden rests on gas and electric companies with a rate of only $1.24 while the maximum burden is on express companies at $3.17. If the present gross receipts tax gates on gas and electric companies were equalized to make their burden conform to the $1.85 burden found for common property, this rate would be increased from seven and one-half per cent to 11.19 per cent, resulting in additional state revenues of $6,968,777, based on the 1932 assessment. On the other hand, equalization of the express company rate from the present figure of one per cent of gross to .58 per cent would involve a relatively small loss of revenue, since express companies paid only $74,699 in 1932 which would be reduced to $43,325. The figures of the number of deer legally killed in California have been compiled by the state fish and game commission, and they disclose that there were 7425 less deer killed in the state this season than were brought down in 1931. There were 18,380 tags returned to the commission this year, as against 25,805 for last season. The decrease of something like 33 per cent is no indication that deer are getting scarcer in California, for there are some 400,000 roaming the mountain range and lowlands of this state according to latest estimates. The fact that the kill this season is less, is due almost entirely to the world wide depression. Last year 132,000 deer tags were sold. This year slightly over 100,000 were disposed of, a loss of nearly 30 per cent. The ratio of hunters who bought tags and those who were successful in their quest for venison was maintained this year, as it has since the deer tag law went into effect in 1927. The ratio of deer killed is about one for each six hunters who go out into the mountains. Mendocino county, which for the past six seasons has led the list of counties in number of tags sent in, maintains that lead this season, with 1275 deer killed. The total for 1931 was 1708. In Modoc county, where the limit is one buck per hunter 916 bucks were killed, placing second on the list. Owing to a heavy depletion of deer in Modoc county due to an epidemic among these animals, sportsmen are considering additional protection for Modoc county. Siskiyou, always a favorite section for deer hunters, is third, 896 tags being turned in. Other leading counties reporting more that 300 deer killed are: Fresno 882, Plumas 829, Los Angeles 819, Humboldt 807, Tulare 725, Sonoma 709, Santa Barbara 532, Shasta 527, Lake 524, Lassen (1 buck limit) 508, Riverside 488, Tehama 487, Monterey 484, El Doroda 462, Santa Clara 415, Trinity 418, San Luis Obispo 377, Mariposa 376, Glenn 348, Ventura 317, Madera 316, Napa 304. Sacramento county turned in 2 tags; Imperial county 4, while San Francisco and Sutter counties report no deer killed during the season.
