PRIVATE CAR LINES
 SHOW AN INCREASE

The assessed valuation of private car companies operating in Arizona was fixed yesterday by the state tax commission at $1.63O,772 an increase of over $35O,0OO over last years as sessment
 The heaviest tax payer of the pri- vate car lines, is of course the Pull man company, with an assessed val uation this year of $S14,684. This is an increase of approximately $120,- GOO over 1914, due to the greater number of cars operated this year in the state. The Pacific Fruit EX- press is second with a valuation of $411,443. and the Santa Fe Refrig- orator Despatch company third. It's valuation is fixed this year at $2SS,- 010. The increase in the total as sessed valuation over last year is largely due to the increase in VaIua- tiOns of the larger companies. There are 37 companies operating in the state, a number of which are as- sessed at the minimum valuation of

LOWER VALUATION OF
 EXPRESS COMPANIES

The state tax commission yester day completed the work of valuation of express companies operating in the state, and fixed the assessable valuation for 1915. The valuation of express companies was fixed at $S7, 727.14, a decrease of over $16,000 from last years assessment.
 The valuation of express compan- ies is obtained by subtracting the amount paid the railroads for trans poItation from the gross receipts, and on the valuation thus determined the state leVies a tax of six per cent. While there is a decrease in the re- ceipts this year, the express com panies paid the railroads a higher percentage of their income for trans rOrtation, 51 per cent of the gross re- ceipts being expended for this item, as compared with 49 in 1914. The falling off in valuation is believed to indicate loss due to the competition of the parcels post. The valuations for 1914 and 1915 follow:
