STATE TAX LEVY
MAY BE THIRD LOWER
Committee on Economy
and Consolidation Recommends
Welcome Relief.

Columbia, Dec. 6.-Reduction of
the state tax levy for 1922 by. at
least one-third IS to be the major
proposal of the Joint Legislative
Committee on Economy and Consoli-
dation according to an announcement
following a two-day session of the
Committee in Columbia last week.
The meeting was attended by Sena-
Tor Niels Christensen, chairman,
Senators F. A. Miller and W. Fred
Lightsey, and Representatives E. T..
Hughes and J. E. Anderson. The only
member absent was Representative
John K. Hamblin, who was unavoid-
ably detained by cases in court.
According to the Committees
statement, three different devices will
be used to reduce the state tax levy
from twelve mills to eight mills or
less. The first is to postpone the con-
stluct on of practically all building
operations for a year. The second is
to carry on the state government at
smaller cost by means of better or
ganization and improved operating
procedure. The third is to raise part
of the states money by levies on
those now escaping wholly or parti-
ally their fair share of the burden.
All told, according to the Commit
tee the general property tax can be
reduced over $2,OOO,OOO as compar-
ed with 1921.
After considerable discussion the
Committee came to the conclusion
that financial conditions in the state
would justify its recommendations
to the legislature of deferring prac-
tically all building operations by state
institute ons in 1922. Such action
would result in a reduction of the
appropriations by approximately half
q million dollars. The committee real
ICES that this means merely the de-
ferring of expenditures which in
some cases will have to be made la
ter. In only few instances, how
ever was the committee able to
learn of conditions making the erec-
ton of new buildings at once very
desirable and in most cases it was
thought no great hardship would re-
suit from a postponement of the
building program for one year.
