CURES FOR TAXES
A program of tax reduction through
legislative measure will be drafted
thla afternoon by the taxation com
mittee of the Chamber of Commerce,
waa the information given out to
day by W. H. Gore, chairman of the
committee. .There are several pro
posals which the committee will un
doubtedly make to the Jackson
county delegation to the state legla
lature bearing on remedies for pres
ent conditions an taxation mattera.
One of the remedies to be ad
vanced by the committee will un
doubtedly Include a proposal enab
ling partial payment of property
taxes at shorter Intervale than the
half-year period now In vogue. It la
felt that taxpayera generally will
welcome the opportunity to pay
taxea for a shorter period of time,
thereby reductlng the actual amount
necessary to pay at any one time.
Proposals effecting the two-mill
state school levy and the per capita
levy for school purposes will also be
considered at today'a meeting. At ft
later date the committee will also
consider the J. C. Baraea plan of tax
reduction through exemptlona on
home owners' property.
