mend 60 Per Cent Cash VaIue.

The convention of county assessors
of Washington will be held in Olym-
pia on January 16, says the Walla
Walla Statesman. At the meeting IT
will be urged by the state tax COM
mission to adopt a resolution provid-
ing that in each county the same per-
centage of the true valuation shall he
followed in the assessment of all
classes of property.
The state tax commission will. II Is
understood, express a preference for
60 per cent, having, for the time be-
ing, abandoned the campaign for n
full valuation started during the an
pearance of the assessors before the
state board of equalization last Sep
tember.
The term property is intended to in
clude moneys on deposit. and every
other class of personal property hay-
ing a fixed and definite value. Under
the uniform 60 per cent assessment
plan the man who had on deposit ST.
600 would have it assessed as though
1t were only $500, and the value on a
$1,000 tract of real estate would be
put in at 5000 likewise.
