EQUALIZE IN FACT
5S it looks as if the tax equalization law will be re
pealed The house ways and means committee voted
Adversely against three bills providing, for its repeal
*J)Ut' this report was overruled by the house itself by a
Slecord vote and the bills go oi) the calendar.
Ju Jt would be a shame to repeal the tax equalization
SjaW, if the tax system is to be retained as a
HltanSs It is true the law as enforced is not, satiRfact
entirely. Howevcj. the state’s revenues have
increased since its,adoption in 1'* ** , re
g iealed I he property owners will go back to returning
htir property at any price they desire. This '*oul<l
ftiiOt be right and the state will suffer. '
St iThe present opposition to the tax equalization law,
at least where the objection is made by sensible
§ ioh:ons and not Bolsheviks who woukl abolish < l
orms of taxation—is found in its enforcement. Of
_wWe it would be c«t of the question for the equn)-
Szing board*to inspect all farms and property to as
certain its value but a better way of arriving at the

B Itbere are too many cases where equalizers sit in
g,B office and “equalize” the lax returns of a county.
Sfit numerous instances “A” is made to pay taxes on
Sjroperty valued as high as f‘B” because they- happen
Sr be neighbors regardless off the income eachi derives
ilirpm the property. “A” ™ay own poor land and
«Teap a poor return from his labor and B may o
land and make money on his property. It makes
fsjid difference tb the equalizers, who may,have never
“* >feh cither piece of property.
•‘•If’ says The Macon Telegraph in commenting
the’agitation against the equalization law.Jany-
'» iHc'e the present law is to benn force—that is,
ieorgia is to have a substantial attempt at equali-
lon—some’such system as the following jnmit be
luted: First, have made a county map which
lilies every lot of land or farm with numbers M
m of each niot designated; yeebnd,, keep, a record (
nook in whictithe names of alj land, owners,and t.icir,
ami are ret down; ami, third, employ three* °r Wur
‘liigent, disinterested men who live out of tne
cmmty and do not own a dollar’s worth of property
in. the county, to make a survey. Hyi.ve tt e8 jjj3>££
meet every plot of laud in the county and.f)x to
ne best of their ability a fair, impartial valuation
uj the same, to be turned over to the Clerk of the
loijrt. This appraisement should suffice for a num-
■“Thb^woiild furnish, the tax assessors definite
itla on which to fix the rate. It would also relieve
e’hcnest, conscientious farmer from the humiliation
which ho is subjected in having to subscribe to the
Sit method of returning taxes. He is confronted
a printed form ,at the bottom of which are
ie ominous words, put there'to frighten him into
jiihfulncrs: “ do eclemnly.sweor that I have given
the above property at its true market value. But
scarecrow fails t6 frighten. The farmer knows
tins'people do not give in their property at its true
lkt-ket value—at wjiat they could get for it. Some
■e jt in at less than one-half its value, and others at
' than one-fourth. Just as long as the individual
_^Uce. of returning taxes is observed and just as
t as men-arc selfishly inclined, this variation will
J as some are more selfish than others,
(Surely, there is a better way to equalize taxes—
“ taxes of every kind should equalized.”
