Manteo, were unable to appear in
their behalf, as they didn't receive
notices until the day of the meet
ings set by the board, or after
ward. Law usually gives ten days
notice to the taxpayer.
The Dare County Taxpayers
Association is the outgrowth of
public reception of the notices
sent out on the new valuations. 1t
is citizens group, open to all
property owners of the county, and
receives voluntary contributions to
a fund to be employed in fighting,
by legal means, for a fair valua-
ton. Plans are to take first a
number of the most inequitable
instances whereby may be shown
the general inadequacy of the
system that has been set up. All
actions in these cases will be un-
dertaken at the Associations eX-
pefise to the extent of it's resources
as may be determined by the con-
tributions in hand.
Petitions now circulated in each
township for signatures of those
property owners who are not sat-
isfied with appraisals for the year
1858, read as follows:
TO BOARD OF COMMISSION
ERS OF DARE COUNTY, ACT
ING AS A BOARD OF EQUAL
IZATION AND REVIEW, CLERK
To THE BOARD OF EQUALIZA-
ITON AND REVIEW, AND
CLERK OF BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS:
"Notice is hereby given that the
undersigned taxpayers and prop
erty owners of Dare County re-
spectfully protest the re-appraisal
of property during 1858, and the
use of such appraisal for the levy
of ad-valorem taxes, and the APP
prevail of such appraisal for use
on the tax books of Dare County.

eve believe that the appraisal
will be detrimental to the economy
of Dare County, and its approval
against the best interest of the
property owners, citizens and tax
payers.
Jointly and individually we sub
scribe to the purposes of the Dare
County Taxpayers Association, and
join a program seeking relief
through the Board of Equalization

Assessments, and such other means
as are by law provided.

placed on our properties, and to

sci as may be employed by and

the county's resort property. A
million and half dollars were
added in Kennekeet and Hatteras
townships, mostly in the beach
areas.
Evidence that the Commissioners
themselves consider the job incor-
rect and poorly done is accepted
by many as a result of the actions
of the Board itself in having wiped
off several million dollars of the
valuations turned in by the New
Jersey company employed to do
the job at a cost of $4,000.
At last reports, the Commission
ers were said to have wiped off
four million dollars of these valua-
tions in some ten days Immediately
before the primary when the whole
board canvassed several communl-
ties, where they made liberal re-
auctions. They also promised sew
eral others, it was reported at the
meeting Wednesday night by citi-
zens who say the notices of reduc-
tons promised several days ago,
had not then been received.
In the meantime, the board had
set Thursday of this week for
adoption of the appraisals now to-
falling some $25 millions as against
$18 millions last year. A tax rate
of 70 cents per $500 which they
had tentatively promised the citi-
zens some weeks ago, now appears
to be gone with the wind. The estl-
mate of the county accountant is
that if the several county budgets
as submitted are adopted, rate
of not less than last years basic
rate of $1.05 may be set. In addl-
ton there are other special taxes
to be added for schools, and for
other things.
Had not publicity been brought
out several weeks ago by this
newspaper, revealing some of the
figures on the valuation in Allan
tic township, it is probable that
property owners would never have
known before election of the con-
templated $36,OOO,OOO that the New
Jersey firm had declared the
county to be worth. An aroused
people clamoring for more figures,
finally brought out the full report
on valuations in the county's sew
eral townships.
When the inequities were
noticed, and the many apparent
mistakes brought to light, a storm
broke around the heads of the
Commissioners. More than 500 peo-
pie came to the courthouse de-
manding adjustments, but they
got little relief. Hundreds Of
others, living some distance from

Prices for Whole

In Wool Program

Under the wool payment pro-

consider carefully the possible
course of vTool prices during the
entire marketing year when sell

Richland County Agricultural
Sterilization and Conservation
Committee.
While market prices differ
greatly for the wide range Of
grades and classes of wool pro-
duced, each individual grower
should market to get the best
possible price for his quality
wool. Growers who sell their
wool when market prices are
highest for the year benefit In
two ways: % More money at
the time they sell their wool and

Spring Wheat
Varieties Get Price
Support Discount

Price support rates on IL va
rieties of spring wheat will be
discounted 20 cents per bushel
on the 1858 crop, local farmers
were reminded today by Arthur
Anderson, chairman, Richland
County Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation Committee.
The varieties concerned, which
are considered undesirable be-
u of inferior milling or bak-
ing qualities are as follows: Hard
Red String Gasser, Henry,
Kinney, Premier, Progress, Sphinx
Gotta, Sturgeon; Drum - Golden
Ball, Peliss, Pentad; White -
Florence, Sonora.
Because these varieties are diff
ficult to determine from threshed
samples Of wheat, the identifi-
cation Of the variety going under
price support will be the farm
er's responsibility based on his
knowledge of the varieties he
seeded and harvested. The pro-
Queer will be asked to make a
certification regarding undesir-
able varieties similar to the GER
LITIGATION made that he produced
the wheat and produced it in the
current crop year.
