Acl Valorem Tax * Rate For the State Fixed at Five Mills The state tax rate for 1923 was lixed Saturday at five mills, or five dollars on each’ thousand dob.irs wot tit of*prop erty. by action of Gavert.or Walker ar.d Comptroller General William A Wright. Of the five mill assessment, 4.90 mills goes ;io general purposes, in cluding the support of the common schools, and .10 mills to the sinking fund to retire matured" bonds of the state. The assessment is the maximum per mitted by law, and applies to all prop erty in the state subject to taxation, ad valorem. Comptroller General Wright stated Saturday that the tax digests show a decrease of $7,000,000, chiefly in Ihe assessment of real estate, which made it necessary to impose the maximum rate. The railroads assessed their property at $166,275,968, or an increase of $1,259,687 in valuation. The comptroller general denied the recent statement in the legislature by Representative Bussey, 0 f Crisp coun ty, that the railroads in Georgia assess their property at a valuation ofi only 22 per cent. He stated that an error was made in computing the rate thru overlooking the fact that some of the most valuable railroad property in Georgia, including the Western & At lantic, Georgia Railroad, and Augusia & Savannah, are exempt from state taxes.
