ty except railroads Whose maxi.
mum earnings are fixed by the
l. =. CO. experienced the deAa
tion. Just why any sane person
would expect tax valuation
based on war time conditions to
be maintained after the war is
over, this commission is unable
to comprehend.
In conclusion it might be per
tinent to add:
1st-That the total value of all
mining property in Arizona in
1916, before war conditions had
affected it. was $216, $40, 796 90.
In 1927 all mining property was
valued at $288, ,235, 4O3. This is
an increase of more than $71,
600, 900 90 over the 1916 value
made under like conditions with
no war conditions affecting either
year.
2nd-The mines received for
1927 an average price of only
thirteen cents per pound for
their copper. as compared to
twenty seven cents during the
war. 1t costs several of the
mines more than twelve cents
per pound to produce copper.
3rd-The assessed value of
mines for the peak year. 1918.
was Al times the net earnings.
The assessed value of mines for
this year-1928-is thirteen times
the net earnings. The state of
Utah assesses it's miues at three
times the annual net. earnings.
That is the highest valuation on
mines Of any state except Ari
zOna.
4th-No new mines of any con.
sequence have been brought in
to being for twelve years, but on
the contrary mines formerly as
sessed for more than $37, ,O0O.
10000 have been exhausted and
abandoned as producers, nothing
being left to tax except barren
hcles in the ground.
5th-New property other than
mining is continually being
brought into being, as shown by
the millions of dollars of build
ing permits annually in our
larger cities, as we'll as the mum
erous large irrigation projects
that have come into existence
during the past few years.
! 6--Despite all of these condi
tions, the fact remains that the
mines, railroads. telephone, tele
graph, private car, express, pub
lie service and other corpora
tions, pay sixty five per cent o1
all taxes in Arizona, while al
other taxpayers pay only thirty
five per cent.

COMMISSIONERS CALL KERBY
Phoenix, July 10, 1923.
Hon. Geo. w. P. Hunt,
Governor of Arizona,
Phoenix. Arizona.
Dear Governor:
This commission has taken
note of the fact that Mr.. James
Kerby is making the claim that
the burdens of taxation have
been shifted from the mines to
the small taxpayers. No state
ment could be more inaccurate
and further from the truth. The
actual facts are as follows:
In 1912 when the Tax Com
mission was created it found all
mining property assessed on-a
valuation of only $40, ,OOO, 100000
For the year 1927 all mining
property was assessed on q val
uation of $288, 900, 10000. This
shows an increase of $269, 900,
10000 and is more than fifteen
times the valuation of the year
1911.
While it is true that during the
great World War all values we're
inflated. and especially those of
the producing mines whose pro
fits we're enormous from twenty
seven cent copper, it is also true
that the State obtained its share
of these profits by placing an
enormous valuation on them
based on their great earnings
during these prosperous years.
No one presumed for moment
that these values would be main
tanned when times again became
normal. War time tax valua
tions might be likened to bub
BILE that keeps getting larger and
larger-each year during the
war, tax values were inflated, but
when the Armistice was signed
Immediately collapsed.
All classes of property with
the exception of railroads were
greatly reduced for purposes of
taxation after the war was over.
Mines that we're assessed for
more than $37 900. 900 during the
war, are not now in existence.
Such we'll known mines as the
United Eastern at 1Oatman, the
Consolidated at Hum boldt, the
Iron Cap at Globe. the Shannon
at Clifton. the Imperial at Silver
Bell, all formerly assessed for
millions of dollars, have passed
out of existence as producers.
Ia fact during the war there
we're assessed and taxed more
than eighty producing mines.
For the year 1928 only twenty
appear as producers, and two of
these produce at actual loss.
During one year of the war,
the Inspiration mine had a net
earning practically equal to that
of all of the mines 10 the state
during the year 1927. This all
goes to show just how foolish
and childish it would be to try to
maintain in any court in the
land, valuation based on war
time conditions. Every state in
the Union went through period
of defation. Arizona's was pos.
sibly greater than some others,
for the reason that our greatest
industry is mining.
All mining property shows an
actual reduction of $40 over the
peak valuation, after deductipg
the mines that have been dug
out and passed out of existence
as producers.
The state average for irrigat
ed lands during the peak year
was $148 per acre. For 1927 the
average was S99 per acre, a de
fation of 333 per cent.
Range cattle at the peak value
were $50 per head. In 1927 they
we're assessed at $17 per head, a
reduction of 1870.
Sheep we're assessed at So per
head, and in 1927 at Sc, reduc
ton of 25 %.
Io fact, every class of proper

COSTS
ANALYZED FOR
TAX OFFICIALS
Thoresen Says Commodity
Costs and Living Standard
Increased Expense

Boise, Idaho, Aug. 17.-(AP)-In-
creased commodity costs, due to the
World war and the expansion of gov
ernmental activities because of q
raised standard Of living, were given
as reasons for increased govern
mental expenditures by T. H. Thore-
sen, tax commissioner Of North Da-
kota, in an address to members of
the Western States Taxpayers asso.
citation, in convention here today.
Granting that the people do not
want to abandon many Of the things
performed by government, to reduce
taxes, Thoresen cautioned the tax
payers to guard against over
expenditure and to demand that "the
cost Of public improvements and
public. operations shall be in keep.
ing with the nature. Of the service
given"
In explanation Of the system in
augurated in North Dakota to stem
the rising tide Of taxation. Mr.
Thoresen said:
"The state has been put on q
budget system since 1926" After
careful scrutiny Of proposed budgets
by special committee consisting of
the higher officials, the report must
be in the hands of the legislature no
later than the tenth day of the legis.
lature."
Each county is on budget sys.
tenn, each official must file budget
request with the county board, after
which it is published and a public
hearing held. The public levy is
fixed after the hearing.
"Since 1925 there has been, q city
budget law, which requires the same
procedure as in the county,"

not the slightest use unless you

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. 17.-CR-Four
southeastern states counted 10 dead

In the wake of receding waters
railroads, telegraph and telephone

heavy odds to restore communication
lines which were broken by raging

South Carolina, and Georgia.
Property owners in those states
contemplated thousands Of acres Of

While officials said there was no
danger to residents in the valley.
some so families were declared by
an officer at Union, S. c., to have

The Union Manufacturing com.

Broad River company's dam at Parr
Shoals, near Columbia, were already
seven to twelve feet under the flood
crest, with all gates open. Early to-

with enough vent to relieve the
pressure and prevent collapse.
Waters Falling
Some 40 miles to the west the rar.
