HAS ONE MONTH
Rickard May Name Title Battle

New York, March /. - Having
named July as the date, Tex Rick
ard has until April to select the site
for the Dempsey Carpenter match.
He may name the place within ten
days or he may use the entire thirty
days extension granted by the prin-
cipals.
Beyond an almost positive intima-
tion that the bout will be staged in the
United States, Rickard would not talk
about the place under consideration
today. II really haven't decided" he
said. There are so many things to
consider and SO much at stake that I
don't want to jump off too quickly.
When do name the place, you proba-
bly, will have a big surprise
He said he had received no new Of
fers for the bout.
Connecticut, New Jersey or Mich
igan seem to have chances of landing
the battle of the generation
Connecticut has been coming into
favor because of it's fifteen round de-
cision law, its desire for the bout and
the excellent rail facilities it enjoys.
New Jersey has good points in being
close to the metropolis with good
transportation facilities and a favor
able leaning toward the fight.
Benton Harbor, Mich, is also being
considered. .
Rickard can decide for himself as
he is now the sole promoter. Late
interests of Charles B. Cochrane and
William A. Brady and posted a check
to cover their forfeits which were
withdrawn.

Army of 1000 Assessors Start
Work Today.
Slump Expected in Valuation OF
Farm Products.
ASSESS PERSONAL PROPERTY
Real Estate VIII Not Be In.
cluded This Year.
Taxes Levied in 1920 TotaIed
s6S,O26,73S.66.

An army of assessors numbering ap-
proximately 1000 today began the an
nual valuation of property for taxation
Personal property only will be assessed
this year. Real estate is assessed one
year in four. The law requires that
the task be completed by May /.
Expect Slump in Valuation.
Farm product valuations undoubted-
ly will show large slump from the
1920 returns, according to Samuel T.
Howe, chairman of the state tax COM
mission. However, this will be offset
to a certain extent by the additional
quantities of wheat and other products
on hand, unmarketed this year.
For several weeks, representatives OF
the tax commission have been holding
schools of instruction for deputy asses
sors at county seats in various parts OF
the state. The commission has also
furnished a pamphlet of advice and in
structions to assessors SO that uniform
methods may be used thruout the state
in dealing with similar problems.
If an owner fails to list property for
taxation and it is discovered by the
county clerk, the law requires that a
penalty of so per cent of the tax be
exacted. If the omission is not discov-
cred until next assessment year, the
penalty is 100 per cent. Fines and jail
sentences are also provided for false
returns.
The total assessed value of property
in Kansas in 1920 was S3,S69.51 914
as compared to $425.2S1,214 in 1907
when the commission was organized
Personal property valuation in 1926

'tota1ed 77,524,12o, about one-third
of which was owned by public service
corporations.
Totaled SOS, ,O2s, 7ss in 1920.
Taxes levied in 1920 totaled s6S,-
|026, 1856. Only $5.44O.33S.S4 of this
amount. however. was for state taxes.
The balance was for county, township,
city and school district taxes.
The rate Of the levy is determined
by the tax commission in August of
each year. The assessed property
valuation is then known, as well as the
total revenue to be raised for the state
and its various subdivisions.
The biennial report of the commits
sion points out the difficulty of OBJ
tanning uniform assessments and urges
that the county, rather than the town.
ship. be made the unit of taxation, in
charge of county assessor, authorized
to fix all values.
Notwithstanding strenuous efforts
to have such condition realized, there
yet remains great inequality in the
work of the assessing officers" says
the report. Under the present plan
the work of assessment is a sort of side
issue upon the part of those engaged
in the work. The varying judgments
of the persons engaged in the work
produce inevitably different valuations
of the same kind of property. Boards
of equalization are ineffective to pro-
uuce eQuaf1ty IN assessments, because
their duties are performed practically
within ten days. which is too short a
time for a board to investigate care
fully the relative values placed upon
like kinds Of property thruout the
whole county
Need Larger District.
What is needed is the creation of
larger assessments districts. The town
ship is now the unit assessment dis
trict, but the best results in equality
will be impossible until the county is
made the unit of assessment and a sin
gle officer given power to assess all
property in the county. In this way
only can the assessment reflect the
Judgment of one person.
