ARAB LEADERS DEMAND
Government PLEDGE
Recognition of British Royal
Commission, Investigating
Disorders, Conditional.

JERUSALEM, August 70 (Jew1sn
Telesraphic Agency High Commis-
sioner Sir Arthur Grenfell Wauchope
was informed tonight that Arab lead
ers would recognize the British Royal
Commission, empowered last month to
investigate recent Palestine disorders,
only on condition that the government
pledge itself to carry out findings OF
the commission.
The ultimatum was presented after
influential Arabs, including members
of the Arab Supreme Committee and
an unofiicial Arab delegation which
returned from London several days
ago, met at tea given by DR.. Hussein
Khalidi, mayor Of Jerusalem. They
discussed acceptance Of proposals
made by the Iraq foreign minister,
Nuri Pasha Essaid, acting as inter-
mediary between the Palestine gov
ernment and the Arabs.
Although Arab circles are optimistic
of achieving positive results at tomor-
rows session Of the conference, q rift
in the Arab united front appeared.
Followers Of former Jerusalem
Mayor Ragheb Bey Nashashibi have
agreed to summon q separate con-
clave, even if it should mean breaking
OF with the Arab Supreme Commit
tee, unless Nuri Pasha's proposals are
accepted.

MORE FOR MILK
Martinsburg Group Wants
Same Prices as Are Paid

srscial Dispatch to The Star.


MARTINSBURG, w. Va, August
26.-Because of the sharply increased
costs of both feed and labor. dairymen
furnishing milk to plants in Martins
burg, meeting here this week, decided
to take action to put the prices for
milk received by them on the same
level as the price now being received
by local dairymen for milk shipped
out of the county.
County dairymen now selling their
milk to concerns supplying nearby city
markets are receiving an average Of
about AZ cents per quart, while
dairymen selling their milk here re-
ceive about 3is cents for milk of SIM
liar quality.
An increase of at least so per cent
in all classes of feed was noted by the
40 dairymen attending the meeting.
and it also was pointed out that labor
costs were about 80 per cent higher.
A year ago corn cost so cents per
bushel, while today it is in the neigh
borhood of s110. Wheat prices also
have risen sharply. with wheat which
cost rs cents a year ago now costing
81 or more in local markets. Dairy
feeds which a year ago cost around
$50 per ton now costs about $4S, they
pointed out.

APPRAISAL AGENCY
HELD COUNTY NEED
Economist Finds Unjust
Assessments in Vir.
ginia.
b. IRE Associated Press.

b. IRE Associated Press.
BLACKSBURG. Va. August 2o.-F.
L. Underwood, associate agricultural
economist at Virginia Tech, has con-
cluded that undesirable and unjust
variations" in property assessments
will persist in Virginia until some
on-political" appraisal agency Is
set up IN county governments to con-
tinuously revise" these assessments.
A study, based on the 1880 reports
from ~ counties. showed. he said,
that the ratio of assessed value to
sale value was extremely variable
between classes of property, political
units, and individual properties"
He found range in assessment
ratios Of from one-fourth OF ! per
cent to 385 times the sale value Of the
property.
Boards Work Analysed.
"In general the lowest ratios Of as
sessed to sale value we're found In
Southwestern Virginia and the highest
ratios in Southeastern Virginia." he
wrote in booklet based on the study.
Properties with buildings we're gen.
orally assessed at much higher per-
centages Of sale value than were
properties without buildings.
." The differences in sale value
were not fully accounted for in the diff
ferences in assessed valuation. Prop
critics of relatively low sale value per
| acre were over-assessed in relation to
properties relatively high sale value
per acre
In analyzing the work of the boards
Of equalization, Prof. Underwood found
that the boards generally have de-
creased assessments and that adjust
ments made, whether decreases or in
creases. bore but little relationship to
the previous assessment situation.
Most Of the time of equalization
boards he found to have been taken
up with hearing complaints. AS a
consequence. he said, little study has
been made of the general situation.
Taxing Authority Proposed.
Better than abolition Of periodic
reassessments and better than the
present system of grievance-adjust-
ment by boards of equalization would
be the establishment of a non-political
taxing authority manned by hired
personnel employed on the basis Of
qualifications for scientific appraisal
of real estate values and operated con.
tinuously under the supervision of the
State Tax Commission.
such an office or department in
the county government could con-
tinuously collect, file and correlate
information concerning sales values
of property and continuously revise
assessments on the basis Of sale value
or any information concerning In.
come e-producing capacity.
In order to be wholly effective.
however, such a county department Of
taxation should be wholly divorced
from political influence and its en-
ployes secured and retained on a
basis of merit.
Until some sort of continuously
functioning scientific tax authority is
in operation. wide variations in prop
erty tax burdens will persist, COM
plants will arise and boards of equali-
zation will be compelled to cope in
effectually with an undesirable and
unjust situation"
