fence "a an assessor and in the cor.
poration counsel's office. Hally has
come 10 the conclusion that 'un.-
form" law Is about the most unequal

For this reason he made a fight liz

the Board of Commerce rooms. TO have
the home rule law give cities the right
to govern themselves as to the sub
jects of taxation for municipal put-
poses.
"A uniform tax rule is inequitable
because IL does not affect all classes
equally" says Hally "On real estate
II Is fair. but the uniform taxation OF
personal property is most unfair. mas
much as the man OF wealth is able to-
conceal his property The poor man
