Alexandria, La, March 81, 1922
Mr.. Editor:
There has been considerable discus.
sion in the newspapers Of late on the
subject Of the taxes that are paid by
property-ownsr in Louisiana. do NOT
claim to have any solution for the
problem, nor do I wish you to con
slider me an advocate either Of an
increase or Of Q reduction In our
taxes. My object in asking for q few
moments Of your time is to anaiyze
the taxes we pay in q way tha:
have not seen any one analyze it yet,
and l believe a careful study of the
analysis which / desire TO present may
be worthwhile.
call your attention to Article No.
10, Section No. l, Of our Constitution,
adopted last jcar. rescing as follows
mo properly shall be assessed
for more tnsa its actual cash
value, and ~ txxpa yers shall
have the right Of testing the
correctness Of their sssessn,ent
before the courts at the domi-
cile of the assessing authority.
The valuation and classification
fixed for State purposes shall
be the valuation and classifica-
tion for local purposes; :. but the
taxing authorities Of tie local
subdivisions may adopt . dif-
ferent percentage of such yalu-
alton for purposes of local tax
ation."
/ now call your attention to q
portion Of Section No. /, Act No.
109 of. the extra session Of Louis
lana Legislature held in 1925.
"All property subject to tax
alton shall b assessed for State
purposes, ~ herein provided, at
actual cash value"
Article No. 10, Section No. 3, Of.
the Constitution, provides . millage
for State purposes Of 5k mills, pro-
vided the Legislature may, by . two
thirds vote, increase the rate to not
exceed 5x mills.
We have q board in our State
known as the Louisiana tax commits
sion, consisting of three members,
whose duty is to equaize al assess
ments. II, therefore, all property II
assessed at its actual cash value for
State purposes, a. provided by the
act referred to, no one can have any
just complaint As to his assessment.
This leaves us for discussion the
millage that we pay.
l live in the City Of Alexandria
where we pay q total tax Of S4x
mills, and which is probably ~ high
as is paid in. any municipality in
the State. Let US take it a. an ex-
ample. Similar analysis may be made
of any other taxing district in the
State.

PRINCETON DAILY

Return of Dartmouth and

Special Dispatch to THE NEw YORK HnaLp.
PRINCETON, Nov. 24.-The Daily
Pr~ncetonidn this morning in an edi-
torial advocated taking Cornell, Dart
mouth, Williams and Amherst on next
years schedule. for the four contests
preceding the final games with Harvard
and Yale.
The campus daily agreed that this
year Johns Hopkins, Maryland and Vir-
ginla we're admirable choices from the
point of view OF early season develop
ment. but questioned whether. with the
pared down schedule necessitated by the
barring OF preseason practice. early
season development Is the only consider
alton
1T is only OF recent years that Dart
mouth and Williams have ceased to visit
Princeton" the Tiger organ comments
"And, now that our invitation list Is
necessarily limited. we might do well
TO urge them hither again together with
Amherst. rather than occupy our few
Saturdays with meetings OF less import.
rCornell would admirably fill the bill
for the intensive preliminary. She might
sometimes be a little too much for a
Princeton eleven: that Is. considering
the fact that they have been practicing
only four weeks. But Princeton and Cor
nell have much more in common than
have Princeton and Colgate or Navy.
ut is. Of course. necessary TO plan

Harvard and Yale in good condition, but
can we not simultaneously endesvor

contests of the liveliest interest by meet

follows:

IL he engages in any outside contest as

without having received permission to
do so.
Canapary played at Columbia several
years ago and was elected captain OF
the Blue and White eleven in 1919. The
following season he enjoyed his most
successful year and was given honorable
mention by, Walter Camp for the place
of halfback on the All-American team,
after which he left college. He returned
to Columbia this fall and entered the
school of business. and in view of the
fact that he had played only two years
of varsity football he was declared eligi-

The team will be here until j 80 to-
