crate pension and good roads tax.
But II the state school tax of one
and a half mills is not adopted
the Limit shall be four mills. The
present Constitution limits the
state tax rate to six mills for state
purposes and one mill for pen-
slons, making levy Of seven mills
Oh 90 per cent assessment. But
the state is not required to limit
the assessment. to 80 per cent. and
II = chose to adopt the 100 per
ccn4 basis the tax would be rqliv-
aIent to II mills on the present
rate of assessment. This amend
m"nt also provides for Iimita-
tlon for parishes. municipalities,
levee and public boards of five
nll1s, instead of the ten mills at
present. But where a municipal
ity IS exempt from parish taxes
it may levy tax of 10 mills. This
cuts in half the present limit. The
Confederate and good roads taxes
are cut in half also, which would
produce the same amount Of rev.
enue as at present. Special taxes
are reduced one-half also and
where bond issues have been
foated, such a tax is to be levied
as will meet the obligations as
sumed.
The Hamlcv amendment pro-
Vldlng for state fax of one and
half mills in aid of the public
schools was said by Mr.. Thomas
to be ga clean-cut proposition
without any clubbing and is sub
mltted to the voters on its merits.'E
The third administration
amendment provides that the par
lshes shall levy an additional tax
of one and one-half mills over the
one and one-half mills to take
the place of the present three
mills for schools. Police iuries
under the existing law must give
to the school board three mills
OF It's ad valorem tax for the sup
port of public education. which
at present is based on so Der
cent valuation The new law
will REQUIRE the jurors to give
three mills on a 100 per cent val
nation. This will eliminate the
special district tax system. which
places unequal burdens on poor
ana wealthy communities. The
amendment would be fairer dis
tributiOn of the revenue Of the
government for educational pur
poses.
