present law, each County was
left to protect itself against a
higher assessment than pre-.
vailed in other counties. If you
can conceive of Judicial system,
composed Of various Chancerv
Courts and various Circuit or
District Courts, Without
Supreme Court to reconcile con-
flicting opinions rendered in
these various subdivisions, you
will have a judicials system
which would compare favorably
with the system of tax assess
ments which we had in Tonnes
see prior to the passage Of
Senate Bill II.
Briefly Summarized, before
the assessment is made IN 1920,
it will pass through tie follow
ing stages:
FIRST-The Chief Tax Staff
stician will establish the value
of the property throughout the
State, discovering the unassessed
and grossly Embarrassed pro-
perty.
SECOND-A copy Of his work
will be furnished the County Tax
Assessor in each County in the
State, to be used by the County
Tax Assessor as a basis and as
Ia guide.
THIRD-The county tax as
SCISSOR will make the local as
sessmeut, -it being his duty to
see each taxpayer in person and
each taxpayer will be given an
opportunity before the tax as
SCISSOR.
a'ourth-The assessment will
90 from the county tax assess IL

2 on, where the taxpayer may
a IN appear ami he heard.

/ SIX I'll The assessment will,

81 ian with his final report. to
til State Board of Equalization.
4 SEVENTH The State Board
of Equalization will then give
additional opportunity to the
: taxpayer to make complaints
an | have same passed upon.
EIGHT The State Board will
then either hear and de-
termine the matter itself, or re-
mand it to the County Board
of Equalization for a reinvesti-
cation.
This statement is made to allay
any fear which may be in the
mind of any taxpayer about any
snapshot assessment being plac-
ed upon his property without
his being given a full oppor-
tunity to be heard.

Equalization. and any complaint
which he has to make about his
assessment will be heard by the
State Board. From this, it will
be seen that at every stage OF
| the assessment, the utmost eau
tion has been used in framing
the law and in adopting method
of administering same, that will
cautiously guard and protect
each taxpayer in the State
against an unjust assessment.
! 1t is through these different pro-
cesses that this assessment must
30 before finally made official,
and through such processes we.
should certainly be able to effect
a far and equitable assessment
of the property of the State.
1t, was realized by the trainers
of the law that perfect assess
ment could not be made in a day
and could not be made by one
man or one set of men,s but
should represent the joint action
of the local authorities and the
State Board, in order that the
inequalities may be as complete
Y as possible eradicated from
our system. We are aware of
the fact that different witnesses
in different Districts have differ
ent ideas of value, and it will be
the duty of the Local County. Tax
Assessors and the County Board
of Equalization to reconcile those
differences and equalize the
| assessments between individuals
and betw cen OWL Districts with
in the County, using the proof
which we submit to them as a
guide. We also realize that local
County Tax Assessors and County
Board of Equalization will have
| different ideas of values in the
| different Counties, and that is
! the very reason that the State
Board of Equalization was Great
4 ed, in order that the State koard
may reconcile these different
views Of values in the different
| Counties and effect equalization
as between the various Counties.
| Before an assessment of any
class of property in any County,
District or ward shall, as a whole,
| be raised or reduced, and other
wise changed on a percentage
basis, by the State Board reason
able notice in writing, must be
given to the Chairman Of the
County Court, or to the County
Court Clerk, of its intention to
change the assessment, where
upon, proof by affidavit or depo-
sition may be submitted by the
County Court Clerk or Chairman,
in opposition to such change. In
other words, before the State
Board can make change in the
j assessment, it must give an
opportunity to the coulty
through the County Judge or
1 County Court Clerk, and to the
property owner, to offer proof in
] addition to what is now eing
q taken. When the proof is all in
Ton both sides, the State Board
will then take either Of two
courses, that is certify the proof
and assessments back to the
: County Board Of Equalization
for reinvestigation, or it may
pass on the proof itself just like
/ the Supreme. Court would do in
La lawsuit. If a more perfect

derstandmg in the minds of some
people as to the method Of putt
ing the new assessment laws in
to operation. Certain taxpayers
appear to be laboring under the
impression that,the work which
is now being done by the Chief
Tax Statistician and his corps of
Assistants, under the direction
of the State Board Of Equaliza-
tion, is an assessment for 1920
and is final.
This is an error. The testi-
mony now being taken is in no
sense an assessment. The Chief
Tax Statistician and his corps of
Assistants are not Assessors, and
in fact, have no authority under
the law to make an assessment.
We are ascertaining the actual
value of the property throughout
the State, in order that we may
discover and bring to light. the
unassessed and the grossly un-
derassessed property of this State,
that the burden which the aver
age taxpayer Of the State would
otherwise have to bear, may be
lightened, and that the taxpayer
who has been escaping his part
of the burden. may be made to
deal honestly and justly with his
neighbors and with the State.
In order that the taxpayers
throughout the State may under
stand the exact method to be en-
ployed in putting this law into
operation, ain submitting this
statement to the public.
A copy Of the proof which we
are now taking will be submitted
in detail to the Tax Assessor in
each County in the State, on or
before the ttssa dav;of January,
1920, and this proof will bring to
his attention the grossly uuderas-
sessed property of his County,
and will be used by the Tax As
SCISSOR as a basis and as a guide
in making his assessment in 1920.
The County Tax Assessor will
perform the duty of making the
assessment, and each taxpayer
will be given an opportunity
when the Tax Assessor is max
ling the assessment, to have any
errors corrected which we have
made in taking the proof, and
after he has completed the assess
ment and made the correction of
any errors which we have made
and after he has completed the
assessmentand make the correct
ion of any errors which We may
now make in taking this proof,
his assessment will then go to
the local County Board Of Equal
zatlon, as heretofore, and the tax
payer Will be given the second
opportunity Of having any error
corrected which may still exist
in the assessment. A copy OF
the assessment will then be re.
turned to the Chief Tax Staff
