Foresees Possible Hike
in Property Valuations
Visit of Appraisers to City
Interpreted as a
FOrerunner.

The appearance of two appraisers
from the Office of the state tax COM
mission here during which they in
spected all non-mineral property with
in the city limits is being viewed as a
possible fOrerunner to a general in
crease in valuations on all real estate
and personal property.
According to information given The
Miner the appraisers are covering all
Of st. Louis county, and carried with
them real estate and personal prop
erty descriptions secured from the
Office of the county auditor
Also cOnjeCtured is whether or not
the tax commission is securing data
on non-mineral valuations in st. Louis
county to be used in defense of its
recent cut in mineral valuations The
nOn-mineral valuations in some parts
Of the county, the appraisers revealed
to The Miners informant, are notori-
ouSly low.
Those in Ely, The Miner was in
formed, were not out of lire as much
as in other taxing districts, according
to the appraisers investigation, but
some are at great variance with others
here.
An increase in valuations, if such an
increase is to be made, would propably
be on 1871 valuations, since the tax
commissioner has made his final de-
termination of 1910 valuations for the
county. Taxes in 1941 are paid on the
1910 valuations.
Real estate is assessed only during
even numbered years, with the eXcep
ton Of properties on which there has
been an actual valuation change of
500 or more Valuations are made as
of May l.
After the assessor completes his fig
ures. in the case of the city, the coun-
Gil, usually during August, sits as a
board of equalization to, in theory,
equalize the valuations as between in
dividuals. The figures, along with
others in the county, then go to the
county board which equalizes them as
between taxing districts. The state tax
commission then receives them, along
with other valuations in the state, and
equalizes the valuations as between
counties. Final determination of val
uationS is made by the commission.
The two appraisers were H. G. Still
well and D. A. Nutting.
