This explanation of "The Houston
Plan of Taxation" has unquestion
ably left a deep and favorable i'm
press on the mind of every citizen at
the meeting, and has awakened an
interest that will operate in the
modernized system of equalization
and of taxation for Shreveport.
AS the Caucasian would repeat,
the equalization of the value of
realities for taxation will operate in
reaching property under-assessed
and the property over-assessed from
which there will come an equitable
adjustment from which greater rev
enues will be obtained than will be
required for the legitimate conserv-
atiye needs of government, and
finally will secure a lower rate OF
taxation than now prevails.
The presence of Hon. ]. J. Pasto-
RIA was secured through the efforts
of several citizens who inaugurated
over a year since the agitation of
the equalization of taxable values in
Shreveport.
