Fully ExpIaided by Hon. Roy J.
Cain. Says Amendment Pro-
vides That Commissioners
Duty is To See Every Tax
Payer.
SECTION OF ACT GIvEI

There appears to be considerable ques
ton and some misunderstanding in re-
gard to the duty of the taxpayer under
recent legislation affecting the assess.
ment Of property.
The impression seems to prevail that II
is the duty of the taxpayer to appear be.
fore the County Tax Commissioner las.
sessor) in his Office at the County Seat
in order to properly list his property and
that this the only lawful manner in
which property can be listed.
The original Bill provided for just such
a course but it was so vigorously OPP
posed that AN amendment was offered
and carried providing that the Commits
sioner (Assessor) or his deputy must see
each taxpayer in person or call at his
residence for the purpose of assessing
his property. If the taxpayer is not at
home the Commissioner leaves a notice
and schedule, where the taxpayer, with
IN the prescribed time, must certify to
same before the Commissioner tAssessor)
or his deputy or anyone authorized to
administer an oath and return same to
the Commissioner (Assessor).
While it is not so written in the law,
it was generally understood by the men,
bers Of the Legislature, especially those
Of US who approved the original Bill,
that the County Tax Commissioned lAs-

tify the taxpayers to meet them at the
