they will not vary this percentage in
the assessment for this year. Perhaps
there is not an assessor present who
could conscientiously say that the
property of his county is assessed as
much as fifty cents on the dollar, and
] know that in most of them, the as
essment is hardly half that sum. Our
total aggregate assessment for the
entire state is about four hundred mil
hon dollars. This should be increased
very largely and when done, we will
be able to decrease the state millage.
would rather see property assessed
on some reasonable basis of value
with a corresponding decrease in the
millage than to have very low as
sessment with a necessary high rate
of millage When people think of
coming to Florida, when they consider
making investments here, they do not
ask what our basis of assessment Is,
but do ask and consider very seriously,
what our millage is. / hope that you
will cooperate with me in this regard
by adopting a resolution to be strictly
adhered to. binding yourselves to as
sess upon a fifty per cent basis. There
may be some assessors not willing to
do so; there may be some boards OF
county commissioners who will refuse
to cooperate in this regard. But,
want to say here and now, that unless
there is conscientious effort on their
part to see that property is assessed
upon an equitable basis in keeping
with other counties of the state, that
they need not be surprised if the ta1
roll from their county is rejected.
Avoiding Taxation
There is much property in th'
state which is now avoiding taxation
absolutely. There are Legitimate
sources of revenue which the stat

tax. rolls will disclose that some
counties in Florida have their prop
erty assessed at nearly twice the value
assessed in other counties AS fair
minded men, as officials who have
sworn to do their duty, you agree with
me that such a condition must not
continue if it can be avoided. This is
a subject to which / have given con-
siderable thought and my delibera-
tions lead me to but one conclusion.
We must center authority somewhere,
with power to enforce its decisions.
Experience has shown that we cannot
permit each of the fifty-four counties
to pursue their own will as to the
basis of assessment, because many of
them are trying to avoid the payment
of their just share of state taxes. The
ferred, should force the recalcitrant
county to come up on a level with its
sister counties in assessment values.
The adoption of this plan of course, is
matter for the consideration of the
! Legislature, but it is my purpose to
recommend and to cooperate with
them in an effort to remedy existing
conditions. / believe the legislature
should authorize the appointment of
, a tax commissioner and give him
sole authority in the matter. | am not

commission as we have heretofore
tried. 1t has been suggested, and
there is some merit in the suggestion
that tax commission composed OF
the comptroller, the state treasurer
and the chairman of the railroad COM
mission would give us results. If we
!are to have a commission composed
iof any number of men, then the above
officials, in my opinion, should com,
IpCse the board. What we want is re
sults, and l seriously question if ta1
commission so composed would have
sufficient time to give the question
that serious consideration which it.
Importance demands. For that rea
Ison, / rather favor a tax comissionel

operation with the tax assessors ant

needless for me to say that such
commissioner should be one who i

Three negroes, serving on a cor

that the death of 4-year-oli Harry
c. Gardner, negro boy, run over
and killed by car driven by M. H.
Splitter, 3061h Scott street, was &C
cidental, and Splitter was accord
ingly released.
II was the first jury of negroes
which ever sat at a Scott county
inquest
Contradictory testimony was sub
mitted. Several little girls were
called The children testified that
Spittler's car was moving swiftly,
and that no headlights were illum-
mated when the Gardner boy was
run down. Older witnesses de-
MED these statements, and insisted
that the DINNERS were on. Splitter
declared he did not know the boy
was in his way.
