The Tax Question Is
Worrying Crisp County
Property Owners Are Uneasy Lest
They Be Still Higher Taxed.

CORDELE. Ga.-Local business
men are beginning a concerted effort
here to ascertain what may be done
in 1922 to prevent raise in state as
sessments OF tax as was done during
the past two years. Many a tax payer,
it is claimed, is being driven to fail
ure to give in his property at fair val
ue by the plan of adding twenty-five
per cent. The returns. it is claimed,
were made last year at a shrinkage,
largely due to the fact that the state
tax commissioner came in during the
previous year and arbitrarily added the
increase. Tax payers want to know
this year ahead OF time, so that the
tax returns may be made with intelli-
genCe.
