The chief item of taxes of townships is for road and bridge pur- poses, and the unnual expenditure is | about $3,000,000, he said.

The annual expenditure for transportation, he said, was such that a 50 percent reduction would be a saving of $485,000 per year. The tax commissioner, in addres: ing the commissioners, cited the di ficulties they encountered in making tar/ reductions because most of the expenditures under thir jurisdiction jare provided by law. Counties Cut Levies “1 had hoped to be able to give, you the exact amount of reduction of county ‘taxes, but the auditors of some of the counties have not yet supplied us with abstracts of their tax listg, which should have beer in our hands several weeks ago,” said Mr. Converse. “When we last made a tabulation, we had received ab- stracts from thirty-two counties. In those thirty-two counties the total amount of county taxes levied in 1922 was $4,241,000, In the same thi:ty- two counties in 1928 the total amount of county taxes levied were $3,926,- 000, a decrease of $315,000, or a re- duction of 7.43 percent from the taxes levied. “School boards were not. so suc- cessful in reducing tax lev!
