sessment and does not expect to have
them in shape until some time Tuesday.

for this year to be S72, zee, 4s5. The total
as presented to the board BY the tax com
missioner was S72, 423, 045 and, therefore

suited in a net reduction OF 1926 $50.

Hsved and intended to be 40 per cent Of the

value Of ST2, 2R3, 1925. BY comparison Of tn,
figures of last year with those Of the cur

consideration that nearly 81 600, 600 Of i'm
