The information hus collected will be used in compiling statistical ratios of value to market"value of properties in the county. Utah laws require that assessments be based upon fair market value. The study, it is felt, will demonstrate hpw equitably the appraisal methods reflects this value It is anticipated that the study will pave the way for better equalization of assessments throughout the state, Assessment sales ratio studies have been made in several states iif recent years. They are designed fo point out factors that determine values of properties that are external to the properties themselves. Factors of this nature that can be measured are: the demands for property in a given area; the desirability of a propertys loca tion and the marketability of the particular type of property. The information that has been derived from such studies has proven of great value in, implementing ap praisal programs and thereby providing for fair and equal taxation, said Commissioner Smart. We will try to determine the geographical, population and industrial impacts upon sales prices and whether adjustment factors should be used to determine assessed values, he said. It may be that certain areas where the population has dropped sharply, a demand factor should be used in determing the appraised values of buildings. The State Constitution requires the Commission to determine uniformity of tax assessments as between counties. This research program, Mr. Smart said, is aimed at finding whether there exists such uniformity between counties, and if not, what readjustments should be made. The research program is directed by John B. Rackham. The study in Kane County will be conducted under the supervision of George A. Trybon. Persons interviewed are asked ax Commission to-g- ive by their full cooperation. The sole purpose of acquiring the information is to provide the people of the county and the state the fairest possible property tax program. at USU. If anyone is interested in taking this examination, application blanks can be obtained from th& County Extension office. The deadline is March 25. Anyone who would like further information on this matterean contact Ihe County Agent, Carl Hatch.

Kanab physicians wrill contribute their services to this program along with the help of nurses and members of the Kane County Polio Organization. Protection from Polio is as important for adults as for children. er The National Polio Foundation strongly advocates immunization for adults. Word was received in Kanab Wednesday by Charles G.
