suPREME COURT DENIES WRIT.
Msndamas Against State Equalization
Board Denied.
rrom ,he lererson ol.r Iress

AAAA4 NAN 49,
Judge R. E Rombauer, attorney
for the St Louis School Board, yester-
day presented an application to the
Supreme Court for a writ OF manda-
mus to compel the State Board Of
Eqaliz1tion TO asses corporate prop
erty, including franchises, at It's full
cash value.
In making the assessment the State
Board has followed the rule Of county
assessors, fixing the value for taxing
purposes at about one-third OF the
actual value Of the property, as here
tOfore. That is, in assessing corporate
property, the State Board has taken
the value Of all tangible property,
added to It the franchise value, and
then applied the one-third rule Of the
whole.
The Supreme Court unanimously re-
fused TO issue the writ.
Should the State Board OF Equaliza-
ton assess corporate property at its
full cash value, then this would COM
pei the assessment OF all real estate,
farm and personal property to be
raised to It's full cash value In order to
maintain an equality Of assessment, as
the law requires. This would operate
to enormously increase the taxes Of
farmers, business men and other own
ers OF real and personal property.
This rule Of assessment has never
been applied in the history Of the
State, and the State Board Of Equali'
xation in its assessment is simply fol
lowing a custom as old as the State
