Valuation of real estate and i'm.
provements in Indianapolis and
Marion county for 1925 is raised
s16.745,750 over last year. in figures
which County Auditor Harry Dunn
was to submit TO the State tax board
for approval his afternoon.
Dunns figures placed n total val
uation of S449, ,999910 on real estate
and improvements this year as com
pared with S433.254,16O in 1924. The
figures do not include valuation OF
personal property. The total valua'
ton for all classifications in 1924
was $731, ,265,210. and II is believed
that this will be greatly increased
when personal property valuations
are completed thia year.
II Dunn's efforts TO prune the
various departmental budgets are
successful. the tax rate may be held
stationery. but requests have been
made for increases and even the In
creased valuations may not permit
a tax levy cut.
Dunn was TO appear before the tax
board late this afternoon 70 request
that the boards recommendations
for a per cent increase in Center

because the recommendation we're
based on estimates and the final
