session has a severance tax bill
in committee but the likelihood
of it ever reaching the floor of
the house is remote. Coal lobby
lists, according to the commission
er, have, by various means, al
ways managed to defeat all such
bills. According to figures avail
able, approximately $30,000,00O
worth of coal is mined annually
in Ohio. Some $l0,000,000 is listed
| on the tax duplicates and only
$l5O,OOO in taxes is collected
during the year.
Re-appraisal
Mr.. Becker in summing up the
reappraiSal problem said that H.
B. 3l7, effective Sept. II, 1947,
required all county auditors to
assess all real property in the
county every six yeaHS. Noble
county's last reappraisal was held
in 1926 and the valuation placed
at $l0766,620 Reductions over
the 23-year period have lowered
the valuation to $6,773,830 or to
62.92 per cent Of the 1926 Valua-
ton.
Sharp Increase
To raise the valuation to COM
pare with that of other counties,
the tax department suggested an
increase of SO percent in Valua-
ton. The tax department has
been using the 194l real estate
| values as a basis for the reap
praisal values, according to the
commissioner. He also suggested
that the county in running re-
appraisal should hire a compe-
tent outsider to manage the re-
appraisal but should hire local
citizens for the field work. Under
a law passed recently by the leg
iSlature, the county commission
ers can issue bonds to secure
monies for reappraisals. The
bonded Indebtedness must be
paid off within six years how
ever. No vote in the issuance OF
bonds is necessary.
Delinquent Taxes
| According to a report sub
| mitted by the department of tax
| alton, Columbus, Noble county
ranks Gath in Ohio in the amount
of delinquent taxes uncollected
Of the $77,0l2, delinquent real es'
tate taxes make up $4l,8l3 of the
total. $32, 2,443 in tangible person
al property taxes is delinquen
while the remaining $2,756 is or

To sell delinquent lands, thu
