DETROIT, Aug. 31.-All Detroit
shook hands today with white-haired
heroes of the Civil War More than
5000 members of the Grand Army of
the Republic and affiliated organiza-
tions had reached the city when the
forty-eighth annual encampment was
officially opened this forenoon. Every
train, boat and interurban car arriv-
ing here today carried scores of OLD
soldiers and their wives and daughs
tiers. 1t was stated at G. A. r. head
quarters that 10000 delegates are ex-
pected by tomorrow.
Today was devoted to committee
meetings at the headquarters of the
G. A. r. and several of the associated
bodies. The committees worked in ex-
ecutive sessions to get the convention
cleared for action as a veteran ex-
pressed it.
II was hoped to complete routine
work today so the committee men,
bers would be a bic to join their COM
rades and ladies' tomorrow on boat
rides. The first public meeting will
be held at the Lightguard Armory to-

Many PROBLEMS
MUST BE SOLVED
BY STATE BOARD
Tax Commission Ready to
Make It's First Report
Assessors and Auditors
Are Heard.

The state board OF equalization was
in session all day today hearing state
ments from county assessors and audi
tors relative to the reports their re-
spective counties submitted to the
state auditor showing real property
valuations. The state tax commission
expects to make its first report to the
board this afternoon. The abstracts
on file with the state auditor will be
taken up late this afternoon and val
uations contained in them discussed.
One Of the interesting problems that
confronts the tax experts is how to
give to Madison, Jefferson and FIRE.
mont counties assessed valuations
this year for the 1914 tax assessment
is based on the 1918 valuations, but
Jefferson and Madison counties were
not created until after the period of
assessment had gone by last year 1t
was the duty of the appraisers to have
settled the assessment problem, but
they apparently have not done so.
Heavy Shrinkase Agricultural Lands.
The shrinkage in valuations runs
apparently through all classes of prop
erty. Compilation of the valuations
shown on the various county abstracts
for agricultural lands shows that this
year they show a total assessed valua-
ton of $10s, s92. 622 and last year they
showed as reported on the alb
/ stracts but not as equalized, a total
assessed valuation Of s124,657,52S, or
shrinkage this year over that of last
year of S14,654,906
! In the waste land classification Just
the opposite condition exists, indicat-
/ ing that there has been some switch
ing done in classification. The total
assessed valuation of waste lands
shown by this years abstracts for the
entire state is S1.S11,195, while last
year waste lands in the state were
given an assessed valuation OF 81.
147,117. There has therefore been an
increase in waste land valuations this
year over last OF s164,07S. This is a
matter it is understood the board will
probe into.
! The following tables show the agri-
cultural and waste land valuations by
counties and the totals for the state
as reported in on the abstracts for
1914.
