Halifax Will Consider
IIALLPAX, (OP)-New proposals for solution of this city's tax prob- lems will be considered by Hall- fax city council later this month.
Among the proposals are com- plete nauessment of property in the city by an independent orgI.n- isation which, would also investi- gate the city's assessment depart- merit.
Tax iroubles were discussed Tuuday night at a meeting of aldennen-with representatives of the Halifax Board of Trade. the Somrmmity Planning Association. zha Halifax-Dartmouth Real Estate Board and other citizens' groups
The meeting followed an earlier xroposal that rental housing be axed at the 83.50 residential rate -athsr than the 39.85 paid by busi- iem property. The him would be to encourage bulldlmz of more ental properties in the City to re- ieve the housing shortage. Several ecent rental projects have been ouilt in nearby suburban commun- .ties where taxes are lriwer.
Gordon Black of the Community Planning Association said the crux
ms Solution
of the matter was "the inadequacy of rental housing."
Abraham Sheffman, spokesman for the Real Estate Board, said business was paying the lion's share of the tax bill and home owners would have to pay more whether there was a reassessment or not.
Under the present system the residental rate is fixed at 33.50. The business rate varies annually with the" size of the civic budget.
Rea'I.essmIit proposals follow chargns within and outside the council of assessment inequities. especially on business properties.

Seek To'End
(Reuters)-Dozens of young Aus- tralians are hacking through un- explored jungles of western New Guinea in a major drive to tame stone age cannibal tribes by the and of next spring. ,
The haurdoua campaign re- celved fresh, impetus from re om that two Australian patro men were cut to pieces in the last week by a savage pygmy tribe.
Reasons for cannibalism in the remote tropical territory have never been clearly established. some authorities say it is simply due to a meat shortage. Others say cannibalism is a tribal ritual unrelated to food supplies.
Miss Beatrlck Blackwood. a dis- tinguished British anthropologist who spent many years with the tribssmen, is convinced that short- age of proteins among the pyg- mles la the main reason.
Paul Hasluck, Australian min- later for territories, has directed the Papua-New Guinea adminis- tration to wipe out all forms 01" head-hunting, cannibalism and black magic practised since an- cient tlmes in the wild western regions.
Bodies Found
Patrol officer W. J. Johnston said the first signs of cannibalism he had encountered were the gruesome sight of half-eaten bod- ies in campfires. He said he had found at least 2) tribes openly practising cannibalism."
Tribal custom varies in each locality, he said. Some eat onlyiu their enemies and regard their own dead as sacred. The ancient belief that a man who eats the heart of a brave warrior will him- self become brave still prevails among many tribes, Johnston said.
After the Australian patrols blaze a path through every un- explored area, larger partlcs,will go in to build permanent sta- tions at strategic points.
The largest expedition ever to penetrate the Telefomin district of northwestern New Guinea headed Wednesday for the scene of the two reported murders. Three while officers. 32 native po- lice and N native bearers sought to determine the fate of senior patrol officer Gerald Leo Szarlra. 30. and cadet officer Geoffrey Harris. 21.

Harris and Szarka were con- ducting separate patrols in the dangerous area. They had plan- ned to meet at a later date. At least five native policeman in their parties were also reported slain.
