Support was pledged to the stand taken by the farm organization in opposing decisions of the State Tax Commission with regard to assessment of farm lands and improvements. Frank G. Shelley, chairman of the tax and legislative committee of tht Farm Bureau, pointed out that the action of the Tax Commission had opened uo an excellent opportunity for securing fair and equitable tax legislation for Rural people by emphasizing the present unfair and obsolete methods used. He brought out that investigations byv. the tax committee furnished ample support for the stand taken by farmers and of the county. These findings were explained at hearings before the Tax Commission at which more than one thousand farmers and homeowners made protests. We have lost our right to be represented in taxation by giving complete power of assessment to an appointive commission, assessors making our county the dirunder men field merely ection of, and subject to arbitrary rulings of the State Tax Commission, and stripping our County Co mmissioners of all power as a President Belliston of Juab President Birch of Tintic like, ke under Terrby Mrs. Etta declared history of her grand-the- r Board of Equalization."
