property owner and his assessment,
and then alleges "Too low"
Until this week the Board of Re-.
view work has consisted of listening
to property owners who came in with
the cry of taxes ''too high" Except
when Maxwell Edgar went before the
board two years ago and forced as
sessment of capital stock in Sears,
Roebuck & Co. and the International
Harvester Co., the board has gone
along easy and never bothered much
about assessments "too low
Roy West, chairman of the board
has appeared as attorney for the In
ternational Harvester Co. at the
same time he was passing on their
tax assessments. He is close to
Deneen in politics and in the U. s.:
senate hearing of the Lorimer case
telegram from West to Deneen was
introduced by LoriTner attorneys. The
telegram was sent day or two after
Lorimer's election by the legislature
and showed that West knew Deneen
had traded with Lorimer and Deneen
was to be the next U. S. senator.
If Hoyne smokes out West and
shows the workings of the Board of
Review he will be mixing it with Chi
cago's heaviest business interests.
One property owner who was fined
$3.50 has since increased his schedule
from $4,000 to $500,0O0; another
from Sc, 600 to $50, 900; another from
$4,000 to $250;0O0. If this rate of in
crease holds throughout the 5000
complaints filed this week an enor-
nous increase will go on the tax roll.
ISSUE PUBLIC FUND APPEAL
Following the refusal of President
Mccormick to allow the special grand
jury sufficient funds with which to
carry on the investigation of the
Lorimer bank the members of the.
jury issued public appeal. =

MAY PROBE WHY EoRGAN CAN

Why James B. Forgan, president of

to an assessor, you can't come into
my house and See my personal prop

hearing before the Board of Review
on the 5000 complaints filed by
States Attorney Hoyne.
On the return made by the assessor
in Forgan's district is written, Ere

ings of Fergan will be asked about.
Other higher-ups who are called to
come in and be searched are:
John J. Mitchell, director in four

who control the public utilities OF

Somebody in the Board of Asses

Brothers in bad through the bungle.
When The Day Book published the
statement that the copy of Mandel's
personal property schedule furnished
the states attorney by the assessors
only listed a measly $805 Mandels
wondered what was wrong.
Their lawyer went over and found
that the copy was OF and it should
be $685., 900 instead of $S05. To be
sure and get in right MandePs swore
