SAME AS LAST YEAR.
Tax Rates Will Not Change. Say /
Experts.

Tax experts who have watched the sit
uation for many years and are close to
TIE tax making bodies, believe that the
total tax rate for the current year will be
very close to the rate last year. There
Will be some shifting about The state
tax Will remain about the same. The
county levy will be lowered. The city lew
ma remain close to the same and the
board of education levy is sure to be in
creased. But it will amount to about the
same total as last year.
The guess the levies is as follows

1t is, of course. possible that the city
levy will be held to &c cents, the same
last year. But there is but small chance
that any other levies will be lowered AMI
a chance also that the county levy may
so a little higher than the figure shown.
The total levy is not likely to be lower
than S1.e5 the valuation of S1C1 and is
more apt to be the same last year,
perhaps a cent two higher.
