STATES TAXABLE
Value SHOWS 1888
PER CENT INCREASE

Tabulation Of assessments abstracts
OF the ninety-two counties Of Indiana,
which has been completed by the state
board Of tax commissioners, discloses
that the total tax duplicate OF the state
has increased 1873 per cent under the
operation OF the new tax law.
The total taxables in the state In
1918 amounted to s2,124.951,446 net.
whereas the new assessments amount
to $5.15S,73o,s75. About 100000. 900
in mortgage deductions will be taken
from the 1919 figures, leaving the total
1919 duplicate, as it now stands, at
about $5.058, 900 900 in round numbers.
Members of the state board Of tax
commissioners declare that the total
duplicate will be far larger than
$5,000,000.000 before the end OF the
present session of the board, Aug. %
Fred A. Sims, chairman Of the board,
declared that in a number Of instances
the assessments made by local asses
sors and by the boards Of review will
be materially boosted because they
are not in line with the true cash
value system that has been applied
successfully in most instances. The
work Of boosting the valuations OF the
delinquent towns, townships, cities
and counties will start today, when
the board begins its session Of equal
cation. 1t is believed that the total
duplicate will be more than $4,000, 900,
900 when the state board completes its
work.
Comparison Of Averages.
The average tax rate Of all munich
palities OF Indiana in 1913 was $3.01
The law requires that the rate be re
duced in the same ratio as the assess
| ments increase. II the $4,000, 000,00(
| figure would stand, and none Of the
! municipalities was granted authorit!
to raise more taxes in 1920 than the!
did this year, the average tax rate To-
next year would be 1927.
! Wayne county's tax tabulation, a.
completed, shows that the county ha
increased from $24,348,950 to $51 ,406
$50, and that the average land valua
ton is $103.6s an acre.
Henry county has increased from
/ $16,O00.00o to $44,0Oo,0oo, Union from
| $4,500,000 to $12,970,000, and Fayett
from 1851 900 to $19,e46,000.

chickasha Cotton oil Company and

Cases in Supreme Court; Ar
gued at Capital. r.
REPRESENTS BIGGEST
CASES OF KIND HERE
Question Is Taxation On Moneyed
Capital; Paid Under Protest by
comnanies; County Fights to
Retain Big Amounts. =

The cases in re: assessment Of
the Chickasha Milling plant and in
re; assessment of the Chlckasha Cot.
ton OIL company, involving certain
taxes paid to the county assessor IN
der protest, was argued yesterday
before the state supreme court.
According to William Stacey, coun-
ty attorney who repreented the coun-
iy in the cases, the litigatlons are
appeals from the district court of
Grady county. The cases, he saws.
were conducted as two separate liti.
cations up to their appeal to the SUI
preme court, which tribunal consoll.
dated the two causes in view of the
fact that they involved the same
question of law.
The cases, Mr. Stacey says, are
the outgrowth of the assessment
made by County Assessor Bryan
against the companies. The compa-
nies, he asserts, declare that only
their personal tangible property,
while the eounty's contentious are
that the corporations should be tax.
ed on their moneyed capital.
If the contentious Of the state are
sustained by the supreme court, the
yearly tax on both corporations win
be approximately $4,000. II the
company wins, the taxes Of both cor
porations viii be approximately Sill
600 yearly, MI Stacey says.
Should the corporations win before
the supreme court, the county would
be forced to refund the difference
between the amounts, taxes on the
capital having been collect
ed for 1918. This tax was paid un-
der protest.
County Attorney Stacey stated this
that this was one of the
most important cases in which Grady
county has ever been involved.
Alger Melton, of the law firm Of
Bond, Melton and Melton, represented
bhe corporations In the case.

of a special cabinet meeting to dis
cuss the critical industrial stuaton
was under consideration early this

The program for the working out

Wilson, with the announcement that
that national industrial conference
had definitely disbanded, leaving
recommendation with the president
that small, committee be left to
work out the problems for a future

Administration leaders made no
effort to conceal their concern over
the threatened strike of the bitumin-
GUS coal miners, as well as the new
strike movement Of the railroad
workers and the feeling that has been
brought between capital and labor by
the dissolution of the industrial con-
ference.
