20 MILLIONS COST OF
TAX PAYING MACHINERY
CONTINUED from Page y

Continued from Page u
which was carried westward to a GER
tain extent, has enormously compli-
Gated the situation. Wisconsin has,
for instance, 1880 local governments
possessed Of full assessment machin-
cry
Moreover, in many states we have
not only too many municipalities but
too many subdivisions in them Many
are created near the large cities simp-
ly to avoid municipal jurisdiction.
Chicago has 81 district tax levying
bodies. Such conditions inevitably
produce more politics, more extraya-
gance and greater completely
Until such conditions are remedied
we must content ourselves with slow
ly working out reforms under condi-
tons as they exist, but we are likely
to see more rather than less decen-
tralization, waste, graft and inefficlen-
cy.
There is the constantly increasing
tendency to levy so-called assessment
for benefits upon restricted areas,
thus bringing in another long train
of officials with the consequent com
plicated computations. These assess
ments also lend themselves very read
lily to real estate speculation and ex-
ploitation
In the matter of assessment ma
chinery we should face frankly the
fact that local administration is now
a failure and it is always certain to
be such. Taxation is a state, not a
municipal function. The logic of the
situation, therefore requires state ad-
ministration with municipal tax levies
rather than local administration with
state tax super-imposed
Many states are trying to improve
inefficient local assessments while re-
tanning the local assessor. In other
words, the public is paying one lot OF
officials good money to persuade or
coerce another lot to obey the laws.
The may be political expediency, but
it is not good sense Wisconsin has
some 1900 local assessors getting an
average of 5000 each, the rural figure
being $50. From watching their work
for ten years | think it to be literally
ltrue that they never make a good as
| sessment except under the whip OF
central authority and this whip even
! did not do much good until the re-as.
tsessment law was passed which gave
/ it lash, If the supervisors were Civ
en- direction OF assessments made in
their districts by subordinates OF
their own choosing, the net saving
to the public would not be less than
100000 annually.
Simplify our system of govern
ment, give the public chance to un
dertsand its workings, centralize re-
sponsibility, and the energy now beat
ing against dead walls and wearing
itself out among the tagled threads
Of our municipal organization, will be
freed to give us the better governed
America to which our people are en-
titled and for which they are now
paying the fun price"
