BISHOP BOOMERANG.
Cause of Assessment Raises In Center
Land.

Among reasons that have been adj
vanced for the raise In the assessments
on land In the center of the city Is one
that In the Bishop suit to recover dam
ages for his Crown street property,
the land was assessed very low, ac-
cording to real estate dealers. The
claims were accordingly put up to con-
siderable over the assessed valuation
per foot frontage. Accordingly there
were many who said that this was the
case in all of the section. Little did
they realize what a boomerang this
would prove, for the board of asses,
sors have been working overtime to
get the assessments to a figure that
would agree with the figures furnished
by real estate dealers when they ridl-
culed the assessments of $375 foot
on certain land that they claimed was
worth from $500 to $500 foot, This
price was also set upon as good by
Judge eager In deciding the case, and
he allowed $500 a foot AS this struck
the board of assessors as good sign
that their computations of value were
too small, they followed the decision
with the recently announced raises
amounting to 81, $50, 900
There has been considerable com
ment and worry among rent payers
over the increase as the increased tax
es resulting will be met largely by
rises In rents

DR.. Levy also talked about the pros
porous condition Of the church at the

congregation of half century ago. The
