WHETHER the railroads are re-
turned to private ownership or
not, there is one thing absolutely
certain, there must be an increase
in freight and passenger rates.
There is no need for any one to
dispute the fact that, under the
present conditions, high priced
material and labor, the railroads
can not meet the expense at the
present rates. These facts are
shown from the records and not
from hearsay from the unin-
formed. Every business enter
prise is dependant upon tue rail
roads to a more less degree and
when the operative powers of the
railroads are crippled, all other
business industries must bear
their proportional part of the
burden. Whether the railroads
shall be returned to private own
ership or not, the public may ex-
pect an increase in rates to meet
the increased expence OF opera
tions. When it comes the ex-
tremist and pessimist will do his
kicking, but the conservative and
informed public, will accept it in

TAX LAW.

The action of the State Tax
Commission at Frankfort in re,

asses meats is causing great
deal IF complaint and nearly
every where the new tax laws
are blamed for the present condi-
ton.
u 'er the old laws the tate
boaru of equalization exercised
the right to raise assessments
horizontally in counties, while
under the new laws the authority
is limited to requiring any in
crease to specify property In
possession of taxpayers, and
then only when such property
has not beer listed at its fair
cash value" in accordance with
the constitutional law.
Under the old laws all kinds of
property was subject to uniform
taxation for state, county and
municipal purposes. Under the
new laws bonds, stocks, mort
cages, notes, accounts, money
and credits. agricultural imple-
ments, manufacturing machinery,
raw materials and prod ucts in
process are taxable for state
purposes only.
Under the old laws money on
deposit in Kentucky banks and
trust companies was subject 10
state, county and municipal taxes
the rates approximately 3 per
cent, while under the new law
the tax on such deposits in one
tenth of I per cent for state pur
poses only.

l. is unfair to compare present
tax bills with tax bills under the
old law. The comparison should
be based on what the former tax
bills would have been had prop
erty been assessed according to
the law, which has not been
changed in this respect, and what
the tax bills would be under
the increased assessments if the
new laws exempted intangible
personal property from local
county and municipal taxation
had not been enacted.
Without the benehcent effect
of the new tax laws the enforce
ment of the old laws would have
been disastrous in the extreme
and to attribute the action Of
the taxing authorities in their
endeavor to equalize assessments
all over the state to any provi-
sion in the new laws is a mis-
take.
