SAYS CONCRETE
HIGHWAY BEST
KNOX COUNTY ENGINEER FA-
VoRs HARD.SURFACED ROAD
TO COUNTY LINE
INTEREST GROWS IN PROPOSED
THoRoUGRFARE EENI
MASCOT AND MARYVILLE

81 am certainly glad to see that
Blount county has taken stand for
a concrete surface on the proposed
Mascot -Maryville road, and that
Blount wants her part of the road to
be of type that will stand up under
the present heavy tratnc between
Knoxville and Maryville, which will
multiply many times in the next few
years" said H. F. Holt, a Knoxville
engineer in discussing the proposed
bond issue which the Knox county
court will be asked to vote for this
road on October 6.
"The traffic on the Maryville road
is heavy now, the continual eXpan-
sion of the aluminium company, with
constantly increasing population at
Maryville will cause this traffic, es-
pecially on trucks, to increase rapidly.
1t is also a matter of record that
paved road increases traffic of itself
as soon as it becomes paved, especial
ly attracting automobilists riding for
pleasure.
"Knox county has wasted hundreds
of thousands of dollars on roads, the
present condition of the pike system
of the county being evidence of that
fact.
Concrete roads are not expensive
in the long run, in fact, they are
cheapest when compared to any other
type of road, because when properly
built, they stand up for years with
nominal upkeep. While they may
not be necessary on roads where traf-
fic is light, a great mistake will be
made if anything else is put down on
the Maryville road. Eastern states
especially, have been compelled to
find out what type of roads will stand
heavy traffic. Many of them are 60
ing to concrete roads, in fact, num-
Der have already adopted this type
hwere traffic is heavy"
Blount county and Knox county
roads will unite at Haddox crossing
at Stock Creek.

OF
LOCAL BANKS
TOTAL OF FOUR INSTITUTIONS
IN BLOUNT is MORE THAN
TWO MILLIONS
GENERAL BUSINESS CONDI-
TIONS IN BLOUNT COUNTY
ARE MOST EXCELLENT

The total resources of the four
banking institutions as shown in their
statements called for at he close of
business Sept. IL, and published last
week, is $2,206, ,643.3S. The Bank of
Maryville had total resources of
$3.50, ,949.29. Bank of BIount CounJy
1926, ,754.1 First National Bank
$619, ,44990. Peoples Bank of
Friendsville SGT, ,49O.O4.
Business conditions in Blount
county in general are in most
fiourishing condition. Business men
and farmers are all doing excellent
business, and every one who wants
work is able to find it in this county.
In fact the demand for workers is
greater than the supply, and good
wages are being paid. Manufactur-
ing plants in the county are doing a
heavy business.
With the receipt of the 100000
road bond money and the beginning
of construction work on the new
pixies, this county will be perhaps the
busiest site in Tennessee.

COURT ACTS ON BOND
ISSUE NEXT MONDAY
Sentiment Favoring Issue Is
Apparently Unanimous But
Opinion is Divided as to
Route for Highway

The resolutions to be presented
call for the old pike to be followed.
There is difference of opinion as to
the route that the road should take.
Some favor leaving the present pike
this side of the Little River bridge at
the Spilman property, or at Pistol
Creek bridge, or near Eagleton' s
school house, and thus putting Vose
and Alcoa on the highway, uniting
the City of Alcoa and the City of
Maryville by this concrete highway.
However, sentiment seems to be un-
animously in favor of the pike COM
Ang into Main street at the end of the
paving at the M. E. church, no matter
which way the pike runs. The first
and second of these proposed changes
in the route would come through
Alcoa.
Maryviile and Alcoa must be tied
together by a good highway.
Some favor building an independent
connecting road between the two
towns and letting the hard surfaced
state highway come the old route!
This matter will have to be detefmin-
ed by the county court. Surveys of
the route proposed in the resolutions
as passed at the meeting last week,
and published in The Times, and also
of the three proposed changes in the
route, have been made this week ana
data collected for the information of
tie court
Th9 ccF'rt should not fail to auth
orize this bond issue as it will mean
more to the county than can be esti-
mated. The state will always keep
the road in repair and the county will
never be out one cent on it after its
construction.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1919-09-30

The Blount county court will be
asked next Monday to vote for the
issuance of $150,OOO for road bonds
to build a hard surfaced road from
the Knox county to the Loudon
county line, through Maryville. The
road from the Knox county line to
Maryville will be of concrete and
from Maryville to the Loudon county
line, it will be hard surfaced, but not
of concrete. The road will be not
less than 16 feet in width.
Resolutions asking for this appro-
priation, as by order of the mass
meeting held last week, will be pre-
sented by a committee consisting of
T. N. Brown, W. H. Willard and W.
B. Townsend, named by r. R.
Kramer, chairman of last weeks
meeting. An associate committee
of 100 men will also back up the com
mittee of three in presenting the
resolutions.
The need of getting this appropria-
tion at this time is evident. Under
the last census, Maryville is entitled
to state and federal help in building
this road, in the construction of a
viaduct which it is proposed shall be
built from Henry street to Main
street. Unless this state and federal
help is gotten now Maryville will not
be helped by these governments later,
as the next census will put this town
beyond the limit for state and federal
help. 1t is estimated that he viaduct
will cost $75,000, and the state and
federal governments will pay two
thirds of the cost, this amount being
estimated in the $150,000 bond issue
asked to meet the government's of
fers.

SEVENTH-The State Board of
Equalization will them give additional
opportunity to the taxpayer to make
complaints and have same passed

sors and County Board of Equaliza-
ton will have different ideas of
values in the different Counties, and
that is the very reason that the State
Board of Equalization was created, in
order that the State Board may re-
concile these different views of val
ues in the different Counties and eff
feet equalization as betwee nthe
various Counties.
Before an assessment of anv class
of property in any County, District
or Ward shall, as whole, be raised
or reduced, and other wise changed
on a percentage basis, by the State
Board reasonable notice in writing,
must be given to the Chairman of the
County Court, or to the County Court
Clerk, of it's intention to change the
assessment, whereupon, proof by af-
fdavit or deposition may he submit
ted by the County Court Clerk or
Chairman, in opposition to such
change. In other words, before the
State Board can make change in the
assessment, it must give an oppor-
tunity to the County through the
County Judge or County Court Clerk,
and to the property owner, to offer
proof in addition to what is now De-
ing taken. When the proof is all in
on both sides, the State Board will
then takeeither of two courses,-that
is certify the proof and assessments
back to the County Board of Equali-
cation for reinvestigation, or it may
pass on the proof itself just like the
Supreme Court would do in a lawsuit.
If a more perfect system can be de-
vised for equalizing assessments, and
if the interest of each taxpayer can
be more safely guarded, we would
like for such system to be outlined to
US.
Before the adoption Of the present
aW, each County was left to protect
self against higher assessment than
prevailed in other Counties. If you
can conceive of a judicial system,
of various Chancery Courts
and various Circuit or District Courts,
without Supreme Court to recon-
cile conflicting opinions rendered in
these various subdivisions, you will
have judicial system which would
compare favorably with the system of
AK assessments which we had in
Tennessee prior to the passage of
Senate Bill No. II.
Briefly summarized, before the
assessment is made in 1920, it will
pass through the following stages;
FIRST-The Chief Tax Statistician
will establish the value of the proper
~ throughout the State, discovering
he unassessed and grossly under
assessed property.
SECOND-A copy of his work will
,e furnished the County Tax Assessor
n each County in the State, to be
lsed by the County Tax Assessor as
basis and as a guide.
THIRD-The county Tax Assessor
will make the local assessment, 1T
,eing his duty to see each taxpayer
n person and each taxpayer will be
,iven an opportunity before the Tax
Assessor.
FOURTH-The assessment will go
rom the County Tax Assessor to the
county Board of Equalization, where
he taxpayer may again appear and
,e heard.
FIFTH-The assessment will go
rom the County Board of Equaliza-
ion to the Chief Tax Statistician
where the taxpayer will again be
,iven an opportunity to file proof.
SIXTH-The assessment will go
rom the Chief Tax Statistician with |
