This would not be true, of course, in cities and villages where most of the value is in the buildings and only a small portion of it is in the lots, There was a sim- filar exemption of $300 on household furniture and a’ similar exemption of 0. for wearing apparel and also upon, mechanie’s tools, while there was a $500 exemption upon farm ma- chinery, But you will readity realize that in no school district were there any great numbers of sets of farm machinery, so that in the aggregate the amount escaping taxation through spe gxemption of farm machinery was ht any considerable portion of the essed valuation™ of the district. But ‘there were many residences, many sets of household furniture, and many outfits of wearing apparel in each of these high schodl districts so that the aggregate amount of ‘pro- perty exempt from taxation in these three classeg was very large, and this discrimination against farm land ac- counted, in.a large maesure, fur the exceedingly high taxes against which the complaint was so vehement. Wanted Revision “When ‘the members of the legis- lature assembled, it was found that the sent’fient was almost unanimous among them that some change would have to be made in the laws I have referred to pertaining to the general subject of the classification of pro- pay for taxation and the partial exemptions; and while there was this general agreement that those laws would have to be amended, if was a much more difficult. matter to de- cide ‘precisely. what form the amend- ever, general agreement upon certain ment should take. There was, vat which congtityte in many pringjples which they judged ought Why Change Necessary “First, that if it was necessary in order to lighten the burden upon lands to also forego a small jon of the revenue which had in recent years been coming in tom lroad property, they should not on that ‘account recede from their pledge te reduce the proportion of taxes paid by farm lands and, “Second, that if their principle was sound as they claimed it was that all property should be taxed upon an equality, then there was no reason Why they should refuse to treat rail- roal property fairly simply because it was railroad property. ° “Their view prevailed as is proper in our form of government. The governor’s approval of the Jegisla- tion followed as a matter of cuurse for he had definitely committed him-' self to favor legislation which would , relieve farm lands of a portion of their excess burden, 1 “There, was another element of public, opinion which exereised a marked influence in the shaping of this legislation and that was the opinion entertained by those who believed that the high assessed val-| uation which we have had in recent | years has in itself contributed to ex- travagant expenditures, In 1918 the aggregate assessed valuation of pro- perty gn our state was $888,000,000. The following year in 1919, as a re- sult of the new legisldtion the as- sessed valuation jumped to $1,500,- 000,000. It was slightly less in 1921 and 1922, being in 1922, $1,308,000,000. This tremendous increase in assess- ed valuation was held by some to be one of the chief causes of what. they considered .were extravagant public expenditures, and there was a de- mand that the assessed valuation be reduced. The-new legislation was a recognition also of that element of public opinion and resulted in de- creaging . the ‘assessed valuation by $223, ? Could Issue Bonds “It is, of course, evident that with the higher assessed valuation taxing districts could bond themselves for larger amounts thah would have been possible under the’ low assessed val- uation in effect prior to 1919, and these, large bond issues neces. itated levies for interest and for sitking tricts.no small portion of the total tax burden,’ my Bulk pigs k ceipts 500, Steady.
