Te such a change on the county records meant far more wotk than they gave them until February 20th to report ways and means whereby they realized The taxpayers replied that some years previous the Board of would make reductions in their demands upon the taxpayers. That time Equaization came into the County requesting of the Assessor a blanket has well passed, and we are asking oui selves the question.

They also know that while he did not take kindly nt Farmers of the upkeep of Chicago being placed on the remaining taxpayers. Their claim was taken into Court and their claim was sustained and there the matter stands now. In consequence of so much property allowed to escape taxation, the levy upon the remainder was placed at 37 mills, which is $37.00 per $1000 valuation. Kindly keep that figure, $37.00 in mind for a moment. It is well known to the taxpayers of this Valley that millions of dollars in stocks, bonds cash and other securities have escaped its proper assessment, and thus failed to help carry the government upkeep. Consequently, the tangible property of cities and counties are taking care of the entire governmental expense. As a result Logan City levy Is 45 05 nulls which Is $45 05 for each $1,000 valuation a Chicagoan would thmk if he came into We are wondering Logan and learned of their tax levy, and whether he would feel like investing his money either in a home, a factory, or some other enterprise High taxes do not stimulate building, buying or owning, but is a handicap to the advancement of any city or county. Why Is it that real officers are so anxious to maintain the high standard of taxation? They seem to be the only ones in favor of that condition. All who receive their livelihood from the public purse have no objection to public expense while all others object to it. Why is this? Commissioners and Others Pay No Heed. On December 20th last, forty men selected from each of the towns In the Valley met In the Court House with the Commissioners and other officials and Informed the commissioners that In as much as they had failed to relieve the taxpayers of any part of their burden of 1931 but had really increased it over the preceding year, that they now asked a reduction for 1932. They explained the difficulties they had met with during 1931, and stated something must be done toward alleviating their Business Men troubles for 1932. These men were plain spoken and left their request in askii that the Commissioners reduce their own salaries 25 perwriting cent for t year 1932, and the yalso asked that the County Treasurer and those his office, the County Assessor and those In his office, the Cle and all In his office, and with the tacit understanding that County the Sherifi office should fare likewise In accepting a reduction of 25 per cent in tl salaries to show good faith and s ympathy toward the taxpayers mai taining such a stand which was meritorious and in order. The Commissioners listened attentively and took the matter "und advisement and there it still slumbers Incoming Commissioners Salaries. Ere long the present commissioners will be expected to set the salari of those who take office next year. That will be their duty. If they fall do it, the matter will stand as now If the Commissioners do fail wb w all know the reason. A Judge once said to a witness. Your actions have so loi that I can not hear what you say. This County is right spoken now looking actions from the Commissioners. They were elected by the voice of ti people and while the majorities were not very much, they were neverthi less elected, and we have been told that they are our servants, and such we are going to expect them to serve us as servants usually ser those who do the paying. History Is now being made. The taxpayers are thinking. They are rea ing and concluding. They are deciding. They may not be saying muc but there surely is a reckoning day coming. J. A.
