TAX BOARD
COMPLETES
ITS HEARING

Representatives of the East Chicago
industrial plants and part of the repre-
sentatives of the city and Chamber of
Commerce returned last night from Indi-
annapolis, where they were before the
state tax commission on an appeal of
assessed valuations of the Industries
from the county board of review at
Crown Point.
All of the Industries but one respond
ed to the m That one was the
General American Tank Car corporation.
Yesterday afternoon a telegram was sent
by the commission. asking a Representa-
tives to appear Before the board at 900
this morning without fail.
City officials B. ID. L. Glazebrook. P.
A. Parks and W. o. Harmon renamed
for the hearing this morning.
The best of feeling prevailed at the
hearing among all the representatives.
1t was the general belief on the part of
the appellants that the industries came
clean with their valuations and that the
state tax commission were given. in the
main. reliable Information in regard to
the actual valuations.
The testimony of the three experts
that were sent to this city by the tax
fS1S ~
confirming and correcting the figures
given by the corporations.
The only variance that was material
developed in the case of the Inland Steel
ompan which was valued by Mr..
Adams. representing the company at
s12, 000. 000. The experts stated that
they were not able to get at all of the
value in the short space of time given
them for the work. but that the very
minimum figure which they would place
upon the value of the Inland steel plant
was SIC. 900. 900.
AT the close of the hearing arguments
were made on behalf of the people by
P A Parks. +. L. Evans. w. E. Roe
and B. D.. L. Glazebrook; on behalf Of
the industries arguments were made by
L. l.. Bomberger and w. J. Riley.
1t is thought that a report will be
received from the tax commission al
most Immediately after the close of
their session which will be on July 81,
1917.
