It's a comedy, first with Rosalind Russell and Meivyn Doug- las co-starred. It's a romance, sec- ond . .. one of the most uproari- | ous romances the screen has known. |It's a delightful motion picture, third . . . directed as it was by | Alexander Hall, and with a stel- |1ar supporting cast which includes Binnie Barnes, Allyn Joslyn, Gloria Dickscn, Lee J. Cobb and Gloria Holden. And, finally, it's the forth- coming Columbia attraction at the iC:\Di!()l Theatre, where it opens on ‘Sundny after having received some 101‘ the most laudatory advance no- | tices ever accorded a motion pic- | tur his Thipg Called Love” is a acky, gaily uproarious marital comedy in which Rosalind insists |upon being the platonic bride of | Melvyn Douglas, who loves her {madly. She loves him just as mad- ly, and she doesn’t want their mar- riage to go on the rocks. She | therefore insists—to Melvyn’s in- | dignation and disgust—that the, learn to live together peacefull in the same house before they even attempt to share the same room. “This Thing Called Love,” from its “Men of the FB.L"' the new March of Time film depicting me training and work of the Federal | Bureau of Investigation, will also | be shown. Dramatizing a typical but hypn- thetical case from the F.B.I. files, the March of Time shows how the Bureau is now fighting the nation’s internal enemies, and is thus prov- | ing itself a vital arm of nationa defense. Playing for the last times are “Laddie” and “Sky Raider." TAX RATE REDUCED HALF-MILL ' lowest Tax Since 1918 Sef | By Equalization Board Here A tax rate of 17% mills, |tax rate since 1918, was set for Juneau last night when city coun- ci]men held their final session as a’ board of equalization. An increase of $154,750 in the to- | tal assessed valuation of real and personal properties and automo- biles within the city over the as- sessment values on the books a year ago enabled councilmen to set the lower rate, according to May- or Harry I. Lucas, Tax rolls showed an assessed val- erty for 1941 of $7,383,395, or a gain of $130,650 over the assessed valua- tion of $7,252,745 last year. Auto- mobile valuations this year total $219,225, as against $195,125 a year ago, a gain of $24,100. Total assessed values in Juneau 17% mills, will yield slightly less raised in taxes to meet the 1941- 42 hudget requirements. If the 18-mill rate in force last year were applied to this year’s assessment valuations, the income from taxes would be $136,847, or more than required in the city budget as ap- proved recently. There was a brief period of low tax rates around 1917, when the rate was 16 mills, city records showed, and in 1918, when the rafe was 15 mills. However in 1916 the rate stood at 20 mills and shortly after the end of World War I they again climbed to 20 mills, in 1926. Turoffs Celebrate 14th Anniversary Today with Party Mr. and Mrs, L. W.
