FRIDAY, APRIL 2, 1920. 1920 Assessment To Be Increased 10 Percent- IVest The 19-0 assessment of Marlon county property will represent an in crease of nearly 10 percent over the 11 figure, according to County As sessor Ben F. West. Assessor WeFt claims that this increased valuation is necessary because of the remova' of automobiles and mortgage notes from the tajc rolls, wnicn was author ized under an act , of ttis-lSl legis lature. v t The total valuation of Marion coun t srooerty at the present time la $42. 2.142. estimating that the" county will lose two million dollars of this from the 1929 tax roll, this wouli leave the eounty with a comparative ly large levy in proportion to valua tions here and elsewhere. The 19 per tent assessment increase will return the figure to about $42,000,000. The additional assessment is favored by many assessors of this state as pre senting to the outside- investor the as pect of a small levy add a large va' uation. i While the valuation is Increased in proportion to the expense of coun ty government and other needs, As sessoi'West points out that, it will give a lower niillage on the final tax roll make up. Another point is thit hy this additional assessment, public 'utilities will be put in Jiu.e to assui'.-.e their share of the burden. f Speaking of the Increase, Mr. West states "this office is making every ef fort to cooperate with the tax paying ?lublic, for the common benefit of all concerned, and trying to avoid any t-undue increase not consistent witn ithe natural rise . of tuxes bound itome within the next few years. This fcounty is among the lowest tuxod fcounttes in the state, especially when ithe scope of county projects ana im m-ovements is taken into considera tion." f A meeting of deputy assessors for "Marion county will be held at the Uourt house Saturday at 10 a. m. At (that time, Assessor West will furnish this deputies with annuallnstructiors and supplies. An act of the 1919 lee; Jslature requires county assessors to repeat the agricultural and horticul tural census taken last year. Fare rs when interviewed by the assessors re asked to give correct Informatf. concerning the amount of acreage (own or planted in 1920.
