Company. This statement was
brought to the attention of the coun-
ty tax equalizers and the value of the
property was then fixed by the board
at 100000 for taxable purposes. 1t
had been previously assessed for tax
alton at a valuation of $500 and
after an arbitration proceeding this
figure was raised to $4,000, on which
