James Duffy, Superintendent of as
sessments, for Dodge county, was a
guest at the Windsor Wednesday. Mr..
Duffy is of the opinion that the law
creating the Office of superintendent of
assessments for counties should either
be repealed or else so amended as to give
authority to enforce the decisions of
these officers. The county boards have
generally paid no attention whatever to
recommendations of their respective
superintendents but have set about
equalizing valuations by the old system
of "you help me and I'll help you"
