COUNTY TAX RATE REBATES
SHOULD Be AUTHORIZED, SAYS
MEMBER OF TAX COMMISSION

ly 100000 The rest includes for
the most part horizontal raises on
land, etc, by classes and counties
The increases totaling 100000 on
mine improvements we're sent out by
telegraph yesterday to the various
county auditors.
This increase Of $14,OO0,00O in the
total assessment valuations in Ne
yada," said Commissioner Colburn,
means many things. 1t will provide
adequate revenue for the state on its
rate of sc cents a hundred. 1t win
equalize assessments by making those
paying on values below the average,
pay up TO the average. II does not
hurt the small owner who is prac
tically untouched ard It Is no inius-
tice to the large owner who is merely
required to pay a reasonable and
average value. II results in equaliz-
ing the contribution TO the state from
the various counties, but the most
important fact is that It opens the
door to the county commissioners to
reduce the county rate
County rates based on aggregate
values of S1Ol 100000 when applied
to existing values Of Sis, 100000 must
produce more money than the coun-
ties need A county tax rate based
on last years values and multiplied
by this years rates will produce on
the average about IA per cent more
taxes than the commissioners expect
ed when they levied the tax.
"This added money to the counties
win be a surplus paid to the counties
by the taxpayers. The commissioners
should see their way clear to reduce
the county tax rate so that taxes will
60 down every time assessments 20
up. They can do this next March
but ! think there should be some
way of rebating the rate for this
year in the counties when It is founC
more money win be produced thar
expected
"The thing for the people to re
member is that unreasonably low as
sessments mean unreasonably higl
taxes, and reasonably high assess
ments mean reasonably low taxes
: The counties have the opportunit
now to cut the county tax rate an
II they do not the burden Of tn
people will not be high assessment
but extravaganza in spending count

AS a general result Of the elevi
tions that have been made, the stat
treasury will carry a healthy surpm
instead of being burdened by a heav
debt. as has been the case for Sc
