HOUSE NO. 337§ ' M | assessors are; appointed for the several NEW ASSESSMENT PLAN ADVOGATED Continuous, Instead of Five- Year Basis, Urged by Mary- | land State Secretary. Special Dispatch to The Star BALTIMORE, November 24.—Change from the general reassessment of the counties every five years to a continu- | ous basis, so that at least a fifth of | each county would be reassessed_each | vear, 1s advocated by David C. Wine- | brenner, secretary of state. He pointed out that this system makes for a more efficient assessment | organization and keeps assessments on a more equitable basis. Employment of | assessors on a continuous basis, he be- | lieves, would also eliminate inequalities and political considerations. The present system of a general re- assessment every five years, Mr. Wine- brenner asserted, constituted “an out- standingly inherent weakness in our taxing policy. “I think that a majority of the | thoughtful citizens of the counties are impressed with the need of a change In | the law and practice hitherto followed with respect to county reassessments. | “Over a perfod of years there is a | | i | natural and gradual increase in the value of real estate, which increase should be reflected by increased asst ments. Whether such increased assess- ments are fair, and it is reasonable to suppose that in the majority of in- stances they are, or not the natural tend- ency of the taxpayers is to object. ‘When, moreover, the majority of tax- payers of an entire county are at the same time confronted with increased assessments a general countywide pro- test invariably follows. “Under the present plan different election districts of the county. De- spite any formula which the State Tax Commission might devise to stand- ardize assessments, the inescapable consequence of having different asses- sors in the various election districts is a complete lack of uniformity in the assessments fixed.” L.
