NEW OFFICIALS
MUST FIGURE ON
C|TY'S TAX RATE

There has been speculation as to
whether or not the incoming city ad-
ministration will adopt the figures of
the new state appraisal on realty, which
will be at least double the former as
sessment, possibly more than thai tag
ing the city over. If that should be
done, the city tax rate for general pur-
poses could probably be cut in half.
But the rate for schools, parks and
the Cosstt library, would remain the
same, as those rates are fixed by law.
Consequently these three departments
would receive at least double their
present revenues, and would be on easy
street financially, which would be q
novelty at least for the schools, The
park commission has always kept with
in its budget allowance and the Cos
| slit library has had ample funds for
carrying on its work.
No conference on the question OF the
| city assessment has been held by the
| incoming mayor and commissioners,
but they probably will consider the
matter soon after the first Of the year.
The present tax rate is $500, OF
which soc goes to the schools 15c
to the parks and 3 cents to the library.
| If the total for the general fund could
| be held down by any means to a dol
| lar, that would bring the rate IT.
