TAXING SYSTEM
MAY Be REVISED
Summit "Lexowers" Said TO
Be Dissatisfied With the
Present Methods.
Especial to the Evening star.l

SUMMIT, April 6.-Following the
consideration of few assessments Of
property along Morris avenue, East
Summit, the special tax assessment
investigating committee went into
executive session Saturday night. 1t
was the opinion of Councilman Ed
ward G. ringle that consideration Of
the report to be made by the commit
tee to common council should be an
executive session of the committee.
Romeyn Berry, who has been par
ticularly active in the work or the
committee is to frame a tentative re-
port and it was agreed that this re-
port will be considered by the COM
mttee in paragraphs before maj
adoption.
While the majority of the commit
tee have not given any hint of just
what the report of the committee will
contain, it is almost certain that in
consequence of tbs probe the commit
tee feels that it has found that the
system of tax assessment as followed
by the board of assessors has been
rather in the nature of q haphaZard
or hit-and- miss proposition.
To sustain this contention the COM
mittee found on going over the assess
ments Saturday night that in one case
a tract of land had been assessed in
1910 on a valuation of 81, 700, in. 1911
the assessment was raised to $4,000,
and in 1912 it was reduced TO $1,6OO.
In several other cases the committee
found that differences of almost 100
per cent existed in the assessment of
property on both sides of a street.
1t is believed the committee Will
recommend that q system of assess
ment should be followed whereby
piece of property on a street shall be
assessed at a maximum figure, TINS
property to serve as a unit by which
comparisons of other properties shall
be made and assessments fixed.
Assessor Stephen r. Mullen, who
has been in the South during the Win
ter was in attendance at Saturday
nights session and he upheld the work
of the assessors. He explained that
the increase of 900 in one year in the
assessment of the tract of land con-
sidered at the meeting was due to the
order to boost assessments In 1911 and
was not the fault of the assessors.
Many who have followed the In
Vestigation of the committee are of
the belief that the committee has ac-
complished nothing, and there are
some who declare the meddling of the
committee with the assessments has
served only to retard realty develop
ment here.
1t is not likely that the report of the
committee will be in shape to submit
to council for at least six weeks.
