fore going far into any plans it would
like 10 have any suggestions, whether

been made to put one or more plates
on the present soldiers and sailors

having the names Of the men Of all
wars in the same place. II has also
been suggested that a monument or
marker in some other part Of the town,
at the Center or Depot, perhaps, would
help in It's way TO beautify some cor
ner. thus not only perpetuating the
names Of those who served in the late
war, but also enhancing the appear

UNFAIRNESS OF OUR
METHOD OF APPRAISALS

Staunch defenders Of our present
system OF state taxation are mighty
few. Apologists are more numerous
while the general attitude seems to be
one of despair at ever getting any
thing much better. Listing visible
property, and such other kinds as are
owned up To, at a varying scale Of val
uation, and using such an appraisal az
the basis for all general taxation, both
state and local. is both crude and un-
fair. Crude because It is incomplete;
unfair because II is inequable as be-
tween individual taxpayers. One OF
the worst injustices arises from the
partial value appraisals. Disregard
ing the plain letter Of the law, listers
inventory property not at its true sell
ing v:.lue. but al an admitted lower
scaling. usually from fifty to seventy
FIVE per cent. This relates especially
70 real estate. II all listers Of all
towns adopted the same scale and
listed property accordingly il wouldn't
be 20 bad. but while one enters il at
perhaps fifty per cent, another scales
Il at seventy-hve. Even then there
might not be any great equality we're
