ESTATE SEEKS
A COMPROMISE
Efforts Are Being Made to Ad-
just Appraisal Without
Hearing, Appeal to the
State Tax Board.

Efforts are being made 10 reach
a compromise i'm the matter of the
tax assessment of the J. NJ Stude-
baker estate, the appraisement of
which as made 10y the county board
Of review was appealed from by
Auditor Arthur Wolfe and Treas.
Keller. The county board of re
view by a vote Of three TO two fixed
the appraisement on the personal
property of the estate Of S250.OOO.
Township Assessor Noorde had pre-
viously fixed the value of the estate
at S2170,S90. Auditor Wolfe and
Treas. Keller took an appeal from
the action Of the county board Of
review to the state board of tax
commissioners.
1t was learned Tuesday that at
tOrneys representing the estate had
held conferences with Auditor Wolfe
in an effort 10 reach a compromise
in the amount of the assessment.
The point upon which the disagre
ment hangs is the shares of Stude
baker corporation stock owned by
Mr. StUdebaker at the time Of his
death. An argument being advanced
by attorneys for the estate is that
the value of this stock has decreased
nearly a million dollars since the
death of Mr. Studebaker The com
mon stock of the corporation was
selling above par at that time. II is
now quoted between SO and So. The
law contemplates the assessment OF
the stock at its value when the es-
tate was created.
Humke's Appraisal.
The holdings of the Studebaker
estate were uncovered when the es
tate was appraised for inheritance
tax purposes last week State In
heritance Tax Commissioner Albert
Humke assessed the estate at over
$4.0O0,000. This assess ment included
the real estate holdings as we'll as
the personal property holdings.
Only the personal property holdings
of the estate are being considered i'm
the present appeal from the ap
praisement made by the county
board of review, the real estate hold
ings of the estate being already on
the county tax duplicate.
Auditor Wolfe said Tuesday that
no agreement had been reached i'm
the conferences held between him
and attorneys for the estate No
figure has been announced which
would lie satisfactory 10 both sides
but il is understood that an ap
praisement of from $500. 600 10
10000 would he accepta bile 20 the
county officials on account Of the
shrinkage i'm value Of the corpora
ton stock since Mr. Studebaker's
death. this being approximately
One-third valuation.
1T is CUSTOMARY" said Auditor
Wolfe. Ito assess personal property

ton purposes"
