Spain Hostile At Tunney liull Yarn MAnrtm, Apr. 8 (AP) Various Madrid newspapers have published' protests against reports published abroad that Oene Tilnney went Into the arena while In Spain and killed a bull. The papers consider the taurine profession requires something more than Just strength and cour REVISKD TAX ASSESSMENTS The new state tax commission created by the )cg islutiire has authority that will concern every 'taxpayer in' the stale. Differing from the attempt at assessment refoi-m of two ' yeais ago, the new law calls for three memlwi's who will act as supervisors over the county assessors and seek to have a more uniform assessment throughout the state. How it is administered will be watched closely by business men, farmers and manufacturers alike, and an excellent statement on this angle is contained in the lost issue of the Oregon Voter:' - , . t "Obnoxious enforcement of tho new laws will do V, towrjiw datpajre and k,wjU, ,retjii;d thejjtuse .of ti , ; reform, in Oregon many years. Common sense en- .... forcement will build up good will for Oregon that will be of inestimable value to our state. . . . What the honest taxpayer wants is a fair deul. He does not ' cui to evade just tox obligations or to dodge tux and ' assessment laws. But he does want to know that he is being treated on a parity with his fellow taxpayers and that he will not lie penalized because of his owner ship of property or .business enterprise in Oregon." The Voter comment goes on to point out how thoj lack of common "sense administration by Mr. Fisher, tax 'com missioner, two yours ago, especially with his "blue blank" antagonized tho entire business element of the state and a gross overassessment was indicated by the tendency to: look upon Iwok values as tux values. These arc two entirely dif ferent things, the Voter points out, with Illustrations show ing how a merchant may carry n stock of women's clothing, or a lumber mill n yard full of low grades of lumber, or a farmer a shed full of machinery, all of which may be car-( ned on their respective books nt a value much higher than they could possibly bo sold for. ; "At what value shall agricultural implements be assessed? f a farmer kept books, he might carry his implements at cost subject to an annual depreciation. . This accounting would satisfy requirements of bus iness und of Income tux administration but would re flect grossly exaggerated values for property taxation purposes. Tho machinery might sell for junk. Its value for taxation puriwses is stimewheres between its junk value and its book value. Local assessment prac tice largely determines this in different neighbor hoods. The same applies to sawmill machinery, log ging machinery, logging railroads and every other class of machinery. Uun down and rusty, even though out of use for the period of a long shutdown, manufac turing muchinery may be carried on the books at cost less annual depreciation but its value for taxation purposes is not the same as it would bo if the ma chinery were in constant, profitable use. To assess under such conditions is not a simple matter. Appli cation of hard and fast rules to machinery assess ments, disregarding local practice and local conditions, would lo disastrous to tax administration." The new law, which is designed primarily for the puipose of equalizing tho tux burden has much of merit to commend it. But it will 13 successful or a "flop" in direct proportion1 lo the attitude of the new commission. The farmer who has a few head of sheep assessed Dow at $G u head is perfectly willing to pay at the rate of $8 if that is uniform throughout the state and if he is reasonably sure thut the cuttle and hogs of his neighlmr und the buildings and merehandiso and homes of tho man in town are going to lie assessed in like relation to their true value. But neither the furmer nor anv other taxmviT is lo submit meekly to a murked increase in assessed values!"" ,mw"ln of Ji"n.- wB r-,Gets Rheumatic And unui ne is sure thut some such uniformity exists. He will ngreo to a gradual readjustment when ho has confidence that all other taxpayers are undergoing a similar adjustment. And by a gradual change is the only way the new law can properly and successfully bo put into effect. Radical en lorcement will destroy its purpose.
