We will not discuss the smaller
levies. The time we could give
wouldn't permit minute examination
anyway. We therefore pass to the
larger levies for Road. Bridge and
Ordinary fund.
The Commissioners tell us the Or.
binary County fund has been in the
red for years and they raised that
levy half mill to pull 1t out. That
reason seems good and 1t is hoped
that having gotten 1t out they will
keep it out on a less levy.
All county officers are now paid a
regular salary instead of some of
them being paid by fees as formerly.
But the same fees are still charged.
the only difference. being that now
all fees are turned. into the county
treasury whereas. formerly only such
fees as were in excess of officials sal.
aries were returned to the county
treasury as excess fees. And the fact
that all fee offers used to turn in
large amounts of excess fees would
indicate that the county offices which
were formerly paid by fees should
still be more than self supporting.
The only difference we can see in this
respect that would call for a greater
expenditure from the Ordinary fund
is the fact that some Of the salaries
of county officials have been raised
by state law. namely that of the sher-
IN, the assessor and the superinten-
dent OF schools.
We notice another greater expendi-
ture than formerly in greater salar-
les to depnties and that much more is
paid for extra help in all the offices
than was formerly allowed. Some of
these deputies are undoubtedly worth
what they are getting. some may not
be. Some of the extra help is un-
doubtedly needed and may not be get
ting any more pay than they deserve,
but the cost OF running all the coun-
ty offices we believe to be double what
1t was a few years ago-and It would
seem that by a-policy Of rigid econ
omy some of this expense could be
cut out.

COMMITTEE MAKES REPORT
ON HIGH TAX PROPOSITION

To the Delta County Farmers Edu-
cational & Cooperative Union from
s. B. Bruce, H. E. Wilson, and A L.
Roberts, of the Executive Committee,
investigating the cause Of high taxes
in this county, and trying to find
ways by which they can be reduced.
report as follows:
This committee spent day in Del
ia March 7th, visited with some OF
the business and professional men in
Delta, and spent a number Of hours
with the County Commissioners, and
other county officials.
We suppose most Of you have seen
the Abstract of Assessment leaflet
gotten out by our Assessor which
gives a full synopsis of property val
uations and levies of the county, and
therefore know that the grand total
of the county levies amounts to 13
mills. Then in addition to this is
your school district levy, your town
levy, if you live in town, and the
state levy.
The state levy is high-very high.
In fact it is considerably more than
| it was nine years ago when the whole
property of the state was assessed at
one third valuation.
They said they wanted full valu-
| alton because such a high levy-over
! three mills-looked bad, and the
state would make much better show
ing at full valuation than the one
third basis and have as much levy.
We wonder what we are to think of
our present showing of over four
mills at full valuation. And this in
spite of greatly increased valuation
The State is raising about six times
as much revenue as it was nine years
ago. If this continues-but we must
prevent it II possible. We ourselves
voted considerable amount of this
increase in road and school tax, but
| is it not time to call a halt?
The town levies we will not discuss
for the very good reason we know
nothing about them. but suppose they
are mostly as low as they should be.
The school district levies we also
do not know much about, but hope
that they fill the bill with about as
much economy as is consistent with
| good schools. In District No. 3 at
Paonia for instance. the amount of
revenue for this year is about one
and one half times what it was be-
fore the war. And about all this in
crease was in teachers salaries. A
little over one half the taxes you have
to pay are usually school taxes.
Then we come to county taxes,
which are 13 mills altogether this
| year-and this includes FIVE mills of
general school tax which the Com
missioners tell us they are obliged to
levy according to law. OF course this
allows the school boards of the diff
ferent districts to reduce their spec
! ial school levies by an equal amount
and should not add one penny to your
taxes.
Also of this 13 mills the Commits
sioners told us there was the Mathers
Compensation levy of eight tenths of
mill also compelled by law. But
we couldn't help noticing in the Com
missioners' semi-annual report for the
last half of year 1921. published in
the Delta Tribune. that the only war
rant drawn on this fund during that
period was one for s25.O0 and that
100000 was transferred from that
fund to the Ordinary County fund.
The balance of the county levy is
made up as follows:
