A fleet of small aircraft evacu- ated 65 women, children and elderly men from the area Sun- day and more flights were to be made today. Much of the town, on the Cana- dian National Railways main line 66 miles west of here, was inun- dated Saturday by a 13-foot flood crest after a dam laborihg under water from the spring runoff burst on nearby Ivanhoe Lake and rushed into the Ivanhoe River. y { Some two-storey houses were in water up to their roofs.

H. O. Peppler of] Toronto, by township financial] chairman I. C. Richardson as heading a list of delinquent tax- payers for mining rights. He said $69,433 is owed the township with another $8,000 due this year. The exact amounts owed by Mr. Michener and Mr. Peppler were not announced. Reason for the situation is 1954 legislation severing mining rights from surface rights, allowing a person to keep mining rights on land seized by the municipality for non-payment of taxes. Mr. Richardson said resident mining companies paid taxes in full. Non-resident holding com- panies, which pay an acreage tax to the province to keep mining rights are the ones not paying. ACCUSE PROVINCE The council meeting accused the provincial government of be- ing partially responsible for the situation because it took no ac- tion to aid the municipality. Six northern mining communities submitted a brief to the govern- ment in December showing al- most $200,000 owing in mining taxes. Mr. Richardson said the mu- ricipal affairs department told the council to add three mills to the 1960 rate to cover uncollected and uncollectable taxes on min- ing claims.
