. Ilanley fought against the ad
mittance as evidence of. a great
slack of records and copies of each
f&sue of the Independent since it
came into possession of the Ford
family. j
Mr. Gallagher said the fact a
man was wealthy was no grounds
for charging malice but wealth or
reputed wealth gave weight to a
man's words.
"If Henry Ford were, guilty of
malice for publication of articles
he could be sued and judgment
rendered," said "Gallagher. "If the
publishing company were guilty It
could be sued and damages col
lected. And if both wero guilty of
malice a verdict could he obtained
against both."
"You Intend to prove a Joint

Judge Fred M. Raymond.
"Yes, a Joint and individual
malice," said (hillagher. "Henry
Ford and the Dearborn Indepen
dent are one and tho same of poli
cies." I'ho Judge said he would reserve
decision until a specific occasion
arose. . ,

property In this state shall be list
ed upon the assessment rolls and
valued and assessed according to
the provisions of law, and equaliz
ed between persons, firms, com
panies and corporations, and be
tween the different counties of
this stato, and between the differ
ent taxing units, ?o that equality of
taxation shall be secured accord
ing to the provisions of law.
, "Section 2. The state tax ' com
mission is further authorized to ex
amine and test, tfye work of county
assessors at any time, and to have
and possess all rights and powers
of such assessors for the examina
tion of persons, and property, and
for the discovery of -property sub
ject to taxation, and if it shall as
certain that any taxable property
Is omitted from the assessment
list, or not assessed or valued ac
cording to law, It shall bring the
same to the attention of tho asses
sor of the proper county In writ
ing, and if such assessor shall ne
glect or refuse to comply with the
request of tho tax commission to
place such property on the assess
ment list, or to correct such incor
rect assessment or valuation the
tax commission shall have the pow
er to prepare n r- ;iplement to
such assessment list, which sup
plement shall Include all property
required by the tax commission to
be placed on tho assessment list
and all corrections required to be
made. Such supplement shall be
filto -with the assessor's assess
ment list and shall thereafter con
stitute an integral part thereof to
I ho exclusion of all portions of the
original assessment list inconsis
tent therewith, and shall be sub
mitted therewith to the county
board of equalization.
'section 3. The tax commission
shall have power to direct and to
order any county board of equaliza
tion to raise or lower the valua
tion of any taxable property and to
add such property to the assess
ment list. The tax commission
may require any such board of
equalization to reconvene after Its
adjournment for the purpose of
performing any order or require
ment made by tho tax commission
mm may make such orders as it
shall determine to be just and nec
essary. If such board of equaliza
tion snail tail or refuse forthwith
to comply with any order or re

tho tax comnisision shall hove

- Has Full Power -
It may be. easily seen from the
foregoing that the county assessor
has little power in his office and
I hat he is practically a servant of
the tax commission.
The law also contains a section
that requires every public officer
to comply with the tax commis
sion's orders and if he shall ne
glect or refuse to comply imme
diately r.fter the order has been re
ceived the commission may apply
to a judge of the circuit court of
the county in which the officer is
located and obtain an order to com

These returns will be compared
with the government income tax
returna to determine if fraudulent '
reports are made. A penally of a
fine of not less than $100 nor more '
than Jl.OOt) is provided as punish- I
ment for furnishing a false return.
The law was passed by the leg-
islature upon presentation of state- i
raents that big business concerns
are escaping their Just share of;
taxation. It was claimed before the
legislature that many business
houses are turning in low assess
ments, through the information
given the deputy county assessors
and that they are thereby escap
ing taxes which they rightfully
should be paying. . Because of this
situation the legislature passed
the law requiring the filing of
statements which will show the
full assets of each business, to
gether with the earning power, so
that the commission may accurate
ly determine the actual ' value of
each business. From these figures
it will be possible, It was thought,
to place business houses upon the
proper basis for taxing purposes.
The blanks will be in the' hands
of all merchants of the county by
the end bf this week. Assessor
Calkins says, and returns must be
made within 20 days after the re
ceipt of the blank. The reports are
to be kept confidential by the as
sessor and the tax commission
and will not be open to public in
spection. BIG FIGURES IN
