SHELBY BOARD
REJECTS RAISE
State Tax Increase Said to Be
Unjust.


SHELBYVILLE, Ind, Aug. &-Pros-
poets Of a horizontal increase in the as
sessment valuation of household goods
and farming implements in Shelby County
doomed certain today as the result of &C
ton By the Shelby county board Of re-
view in refusing to grant recommends
lions OF the State board Of tax commits
sioners. The State body had recommend
ed 80 per cent increase on both house
hold goods and farm implements.
Members Of the review board declared
the assessment Of personal property in
this county to be reasonable and that an
increase would be unjust.
Anticipating an order from the tax
board for horizontal increase the board
Of review also lowered assessments OF
household goods owned by these persons
who had been summoned before the board
because OF low assessments and who had
consented to an Increase. It was said the
property had been assessed as high as
possible and the county board did not
propose to have a horizontal increase
placed on top the first boost.
It was also said the revenue from the
increase ordered by the State would
amount to S926 and the cost OF boosting
the valuation would be half that sum.
Special to The Times.
GREENCASTLE, Ind, Aug. S--Mem
bers Of the Putnam County board OF re-
view today had voted unanimously against
accepting recommendations Of the tax
board for Increases in valuations Of
household goods, farm implements, au-
tomobiles, horses and sheep. The tax
board has the power TO order horizontal
Increases throughout the county and this
course was considered very likely.
