SCISSOR Declares Values of
Kenosha Property Will
Not Come Down.
.ALES VALUE HIGHER
hundreds of Sales Considered
in Reaching Decision Against
Reducing Values.

"There will be no reduction In the
,aluation of property in the city OF
kenosha for taxation purposes" de-
Jared City Assessor John Stevens TINS
morning, and the people OF the city
AN get ready to pay next year just
about the same taxes they paid with
considerable trouble this year.
"We have examined vast number
IF sales made in the fall and winter,
continued the assessor, land these
sales show that there has been no re-
duction in the sales value of property
transferred in Kenosha. Under the
law for making the valuation, values
must be based on sales value and per-
sonal( inspections. would not say
that there will be any increase in val
nations Of property this year. This
can be determined only after the per-
sonal inspections of all property are
made. These inspections will be start
ed the first Of May as provided by the
law
Expect Reduction in Total.
While there is to be no reduction in
real estate valuations as returned Tor
taxation this year, it is not improb-
able that there will be reduction in
the total valuation of property in the
city. In May Of 1920 Kenosha indus
trial institutions we're carrying very
large stocks of raw materials and con-
siderable stocks of completed products
and these all came in for valuation as
personal property. The cautious move
ments Of the manufacturers this year
IS shown in all lines of industry and
it is taken for granted that the manu-
facturers and possibly the retail mer-
chants will not have as large stocks
for taxation this year as they had in
the former year. 1t is admitted that
there has been no considerable reduc-
ton of rentals in Kenosha and this is
taken to mean that real estate values
are keeping up to the former year high
standard.
Hundreds of Transfers.
The assessor and his assistant have
been very busy with the copying Of
the transfers from the books of the
register Of deeds and it is declared
that more property was transferred in
Kenosha in the six months since May
Of 1920 than in any former six months
period in the history of the CITY,
The prices shown for these transfers
have furnished an excellent guide for
the assessor in. fixing values. AS
transfers have been made in practic-
ally all parts of the city, the new val
nations may be based on these trans
fers. In some cases property sold was
sold for considerably more than the
assessed valuation and the sale fur
nished the rule for the new valuation,
The work Of making the valuation will
not be completed until the first of
September and the taxes assessed on
the valuation will be made by the
council on the first Monday in Deem
Der.

MILLION FORDS
MADE IN YEAR
Ford Motor Company AL
most Reaches Million
Mark Last Year.
FOUR MILLION NOW

During its producing year which end
ed July 81, the Ford factory in Detroit,
built 996, 500 Ford Cars. Conditions
that existed early in the year-the diff
fculty with which fuel and materials
were obtained were responsible for
tie company's failure to build its es-
timated 1920 production of mil
lion cars. The output of one more
working day would have raised the fig
ure to over a million. Besides the
cars, 1908 Fordson tractors were built.
Next year, say Ford officials, one and
a quarter million Fords and two hun
dred thousand Fordson tractors will be
manufactured by the Ford Motor Co.
At the present time more than two
hundred thousand people are awaiting
delivery of their Ford rars.

without any OF the noise incident 10
former years and the FLYING flags on
public buildings and the deserted
streets alone testified 10 the unusual
occasion. There was no public demon
stration.
The nearest real celebration was put
