Utaht share of Federal, state, and local taxes for the four yean 1948,. 1649. 1950, and 1951 amounted to 11,043 million, or $140 million more than tthe States assessed valuation for 1951. Total taxes ia 1951 of the assessed valuaequaled , tion for tha entire Skate. Utah laws provide that 'property hi Utah should be assessed et 40S of its reasonable fair cash value. However, a urvey made in E951 indicated that property it actually assessed more near iy at 201 of current market value. If U It assumed that assessed values equal 201 of. the actual value entire accumulated tax-- : Utah would pay the taxes imposed by Federal, state, and local governments in Utah for about 15i years at 1951 rates. IN TAXES At first glance, it would appear that responsibility for the Increasing propor- -: lion of wealth and Income required for taxes lies with the Federal Government. However this underemphasizes the fact that in recent years, there has been decided tendency to shift the responsibility for financing certain functions to SHIFT the higher levely of government, - The state and Federal governments have assumed s major role in, many. functions ' . formerly performed mainly or entirely by local governments, auch as welfare ectivitiea and road building and maintenance. ' A concurrent aignificant trend hat been the increase in Federal granti-in-ai- d to state and local governments and state grants to local governments. Dur ing fiscal 195L the state of Utah received FederaT grants-in-ai- d totaling $13.9 million, an increase of 177S over fiscal 1940 and 9,6009 (97 times) over .fiscal 1930. In 1951, Federal grants 17.81 of the total Utah ; represented state revenue. These date include only 'Federal grants channeled through the state treasurer reported by the State Finance Commission, and exclude all Federal payemnts for projects carried out in directly by the Federal Government Utah. increased The ... centralization of gov- emmental functions and the rapid rise in Federal and state subventions are two reasons for the relatively smaller increases in local and state taxes competed with the much pester increase . in Federal taxes. Of course, the major I factor far the relatively pester increases in Federal taxes Is the tremendous ex- pension of Federal expenditures In recent years for war, defense, and foreign sid, as well as increases in domestic outlays. Federal taxes in 1929 accounted for about 27$ of the total tax burden in Utah. In 1940, Federal taxes repre-aente- d 32$ of the total tax burden. By 1951, Federal taxes had risen to 68$ of all taxes paid by Utahns. .
