Taxation Plans That Would He'll

Taxation Plans That Would Help
This is the alarming situation as it
exists today. Home-ownership is
necessary for the preservation of the
earth's fertility and the development
of the highest rural civilization, and
for this reason every State should
adopt such policies as will encourage
home-ownership and discourage ten
ancy. This can proably best be done
through the power of taxation, a
suggested programme being as fol-
lows:
/. Tax. resident owners first
1000 of real estate at only half the
usual rate.
2. See that personal property is
not taxed at a higher rate than real
estate.
8. See that land held out of use
for speculative purposes is taxed as
much per acre as land held and oc-
cupied by industrious resident citi-
zens.
4. To insure publicity, require the
publication in the county papers of
the rate per acre at which every
man s land is assessed leach township.
beat or school district being publish
ed separately; and compel the tax
assessors to fix uniform standard
of values for cattle, hogs. horses.
farm products, etc. Publicity offers
the best way to remedy present in
equalities and discrimination by
which the strong and powerful are
favored and the weak robbed. d.-Pro-
