GAS COMP ANY
REVIEWS PLEA
TO TAX BOARD
Wants $1,000, 900 Increase
in Assessment Reconsid-
cred, Says President.
RATE CUT STRESSED
Chairman Brown Firm in His
Stand That Valuation
Is Fair.

With little hope for change in the
attitude of Chairman John j..
Brown Of the State tax board,
Clarence L. Kirk, president of the
Citizens Gas Company, will appear
before the board July IL, and again
request that the 100000 increased
assessment of the board be recon-
sidered, he announced today.
Kirk will base his plea for no in
creased assessment over the $12,-
100000 valuation of 1926, on the fact
{ that the company has filed a re-
Quoted rate schedule with the pub
lie service commission. The COM
mission has already granted the
company a month to aid in the
creation of tax payment fund, but
it was agreed Monday that the new
rates will be effective in July.
Rates Not Basis
Rates can be no concern of the
tax board in making valuations"
Brown declared today. eve are
functioning under the method ap-
proved by the United States ST.
preme Court and take into consid-
Grafton property value, annual in
come and valuation of capital stock
in arriving at our figures. To con-
slider the new rates would be to an
ticipate income. We must take the
figures from the 1926 reports of the
company. =
"Our efforts in arriving at valua-
tons must be standardized and we
can make no exception for the
Citizens Gas or any other COM
pany."
Point to Reductions
Kirk has pointed out that his
company has made voluntary redue-
tons in rates three times during the
last two years. At the same time
they have paid two % per cent divi-
dents, including those on back pay
n1ent, on 100000 of common stock,
spent 100000 on improvements
and created huge surplus.
While the company voluntarily
can reduce its rates, with commits
sion approval, they cannot be raised
without a public hearing, Commits
sioner Howell Ellis, who handled the
gas case, stated.
