Unless_there is a genmeral revalua- tion of Putnam’s property agd the grang list is increased to at least $6,- 00,000, the town and city taxpayers will be called upon to stand another substantial boost in the tax rates. it was stated on Thursday by city offi- cials who are in close touch with fl- nancial conditions in both the town and city governments. The assessors must be called upon to equalize assessments. one official stated, in order that those who are not paving what they should in the way of taxes be obligated to do so. Some taxpavers' property is already assessed for as much as it should be, it was stated, but there is other prop- erty that goes into the list at far be- low its actual value. It was ,pointed out that action that should lead to arrangements for the revaluation work should be under- taken in the very near future. if the increase in the taxation rate in both town and city is to be avoided. Much of the unimproved property in Putnam is not gzhtfully assessed, one official poinfcd vut. and as an instance of what he meant by this he men- tioned, the site of the new high schoel building, which for years, as a_vacant corner lot of between 6 and 7 acres, went into_the list as belng worth from $50 to $100 an acre. When it was sold to the town of Putnam the town had to pay on the basis of more than $2,000 an acre for the unimproved land, which was in a very desirable location in_the city. In addition to bringing the property valuations as they appear in the grand list up to somewhers near their rea- sonable worth, the officials who dis- cussed the matter on Thursday sald that all taxable property should be sought out and properly assessed. The constantly growing cost of mdintaining local government, espec- ially the citv government, makes it imperative that mere revenue be pro- duced. This can be done either by in- was the possessor of a teacher’s cer- tificute. and the demurrer was sustain. ed by the court. Since then there has heen mo court wxction in the case, al- H. E.
