FROM STATE

Placing the taxation of growing timber on a yield basis would
eventually increase public revenue. At the present time some of the
Northern Counties ire seriously embarrassed by the failure of non
resident owners to pay any tax. 1t would not help the State, nor the
County, nor the Township, nor the School District to have land revert
to the public for taxes for the result would be a reduction of the taxable
valuation that would compel the imposition of a confiscatory rate. The
placing of the tax on timber on a yield basis would not only tend to
restore and rebuild our timber resources but to reduce the tax rate on
other property and give to the State and its municipal subdivisions a
source of greatly increased revenue in the years to come. "-GoUernor
