ATTORNEY GENERAL HAvNER
GIVES OPINION ON LAW
Will Be Applicable This Year In
stead Of in 1921, AZ Generally Be-

tons Must Make Application.

In an opinion from the office of
Attorney General Havner the law
passed by the Thirty seventh gencr-
al assembly concerning the exemp-
ton of soldiers, has been held APP
plicable to the tax payments of this
year, instead of becoming effective
with the taxes of 1920. payable in
1921, as had been announced. There
seems to have been a misunderstood
ing as to the Interpretation of the
law, and it was generally held that
the exemptions would be allowed for
the first time next year.
DR.. R L. Chase, chairman of the
legislative committee of the G. A.
h. sought an opinion from Attorney
General Havner. with the result that
the attorney general held that the
law became applicable at once.
More Work for Officials
Because of the general understand
ing that the law was not effective
this year. county auditors thruout
the state made up the tax books with
out giving credits for exemptions. The
cause much extra clerical work in
the offices in making necessary
changes.
Every veteran of the civil war whose
taxes exceed the legal present exemp-
tons will secure an additional ex-
emption of $3.50, and Spanish Am
erican war veterans an additional
exemption of $685.. based on the
levy OF $50 mills payable in the city
this year In many cases the in
creased exemptions absorb all the
taxes levied.
sha1s View Of Case.
In referring in a letter to the
county officials, explaining the ne
cessity of changes in the compilation
OF taxation figures, Frank S. Shaw.
auditor of state. says:
The decision Of the attorney gen.
eral has r.ade about seven kinds of
trouble for the county officials, and
after that decision was sent out we
| had a great many letters from county
auditors as to what to do. and our
answer was not to change their books
but for the treasurers to collect the
tax as set forth and the board of sup
ervisors to make a blanket order for
refund which apply to every soldier
who asked for the increased exemp-
ton"

ONE "FtU" CASE REPORTED.
Continued Evidence Of Break il
Epidemic-SmaI Spreads.

But one new case of influenza was
reported to the city health depart
ment in the twenty four hours end
ing at noon today. making a total Of
two for the past seventy two hours.
This is, taken as evidence that the
epidemic Of influenza has passed.
Physicians have expressed the belief
that the breaking Of the epidemic
was due to the zero weather, but
Mayor Wilson maintains that 1t came
about thru the strict Quarantine
measures.
There has been slight increase
in the number Of smallpox cases In
the past two days, but not in such
proportion as to suggest an epidemic.
Very few patients now are housed at
the detention hospital.
Many homes. under quarantine fol-
influenza. have been released in the
past three days. IN
