on the statement of true values as pre-
pared by the income tax assessor and
filed in the records of the state tax

comparison of these values for the
first district cities is Kenosha, Ss7s;
Racine, s1,o55; Beloit, SS2S; GAINESVILLE.
1898; Waukesha, S7s2. In the same
cities the per capita holdings of per-
sonal property are placed at Kenosha,
$3.50; Racine, $3.50; Beloit, 1855; James
vile, 1888 and Waukesha, S214.
In most of the cities named there
has been an increase in the taxes
which have just been collected over
the taxes of the former year but the
report on the 1920 tax will not be is
sued until this time next year when
the full facts in regard to the taxes
paid will be available at the Office Of
the state tax commission.
