MAY REVIEW ASSESSMENTS
Attorney General Advises Tax Commission
That Il Has the Power

Attorney General Bird has furnished
an opinion to the state tax commission
holding that the commission has power
to review general assessments upon its
own initiative, The opinion was
written at the request of the commits
sion for construction of the ad yalor.
EN- tax law as amended by the CopIey
act passed by the legislature of 1908.
Something Of stir will be created
Throughout. the stats by this opinion
restoring to the commission it's origin
al power to increase or lower general
assessments, without asking leave Of
anyone as to whether any change in
LIBERALIZATION OF general property is re-
quired. The corporations assessed un-
der. the ad valorem.law are threatening
an attack upon the system, claiming
that the rate at which their properties
are taxed in exorbitant because the
commission had no power to review
general assessments except upon COM
plant by tax payer. They charged
that the valuation OF general property
had not been kept up to the standard
and az result tho rate determined by
dividing the total valuation. had in
creased year by year 20 point where
1t was excessive and UNJUST.
Originally the commission had this
power but the objections OF local as
sessing officers resulted in repeating
this feature OF the law The attorney
general holds, however. that the a
made in 1909 restores this
power.
II Is understood the members are
aware of the view OF the state lawyer
md are planning 20 operate under his
holding. They will probably hold
meeting next week.
