HoImde| Farmers
In Tax Protest

Theron Campbell, prominent
farmer of Holmdel, intiInated at the
mass meeting of the farmers of the
Holmdel district at that place Friday
night, that he was going to appeal to
the state legislature to effect revis-
ion of the methods Of computing as
sessments on farming lands About
200 farmers were present and the eoun
ty board of taxation attended in a
body.
Mr.. Campbell's proposed method is
the computing of assessments on farms
according to their income. He declared
that the present method was discriml-
natory against the farmers and that
there wasn't man in the legislature
who had the farmers interest at heart.
His assertion that the county board
of taxation had the power to redress the
farmers brought forth sweeping deni-
al from Albert l.. WINS of Red Bank
head of the county tax board, who ex-
planned that the board, was merely
executing the law. Mr.. Campbell con-
tinued with the assertion that farmers
thruout the country are beginning to
awaken and that in Iowa, Indiana and
Pennsylvania they have thrown down
the bosses.
The cause of the meeting was the dis
satisfaction among farmers of the
Z olmdel district with the increased as
sessments this year. The public pro-
test had been widely advertised.
James Fury, realty on Mattison ave-
nue., Asbury Park, and a member OF
the tax board, attended from that
city.
Mr.. wins declared that the alleged
exorbitant tax rate at Holmdel was
wholly up to the men who spend the
money. He declared that four years
ago Holmdels budget was $4,000 and
to-day it is $33, 000
AS consequences you have the in
creased taxes to pay he said.
In reply to Mr.. Canpbell's query as
to what steps could be taken to remedy
the situation, Mr.. WINS referred him to
the state legislature which has sole
jurisdiction in the matter
