SMALL INCREASE
IN LOCAL TAXES
State Board of Equalizers' Ac=
ton Will Cost City Only
About $1,000 More a Year

The state tax rate of 1854 cents on
each s1o0< was reported officially yes
terday to the board of supervisors by
the state controller.
The supervisors finance expert, Cyril
Williams, computed that the eity's total
burden of taxation has been scarcely
altered by the 10 per cent increase
placed upon the local appraisement by
the state board of equalization
The 40 and so per cent increases of
some of the southern counties has so
raised the entire states appraisement
that the state budget may be realized
by rate several cents lower than an
ticipated. and the net result, accord
ing TO Williams. will be that the city
will pay about $1,000 more to the state
than if the state board had not re-
adjusted the values OF all tha counties.

COOKS TECHNICALLY
PROVES OF NO AVAIL
Frank Smith Sent to Jail for
Four Years

The point raised by Attorney Carroll
Cook that the information charging
Frank Smith with burglary was in
valid because while a prior conviction
was alleged against the defendant it
was not also stated that he had ac-
tually suffered punishment, was de-
cided adversely TO the accused man by
Judge sConley yesterday. Cook claimed
that under an amendment of the law
passed at the last session of the legisla-
ture il was imperative that the district
attorney should allege the defendant
had served the term of Imprisonment
imposed when he was first convicted
Assistant District Attorney Louis
Ward in reply pointed out that the
amended section had no reference to
information. but that in effect it pro-
Yided that before the defendant was
sentenced il was necessary to show he
had undergone the prior punishment
Cooks next technicality was an in
struction TO his client not to plead
but Ward asked the court to instruct
the clerk to enter a plea of not guilty.
This Judge Conley did under a provi-
sion of the law which so empowered
him Cook then said his client would
plead guilty if the prosecution woulo
withdraw the prior Ward consented
10 do this and Smith thereupon re-
versed his plea and was sentenced to
four years imprisonment.
Smith stole money from Joseph Baer
July 5. Daniel Doherty was jointly
charged with him, but after he was
sentenced Smith said Doherty was
Euiltless.
