TAX BOARD USURPS POWER, SA US LA WYER
Exposure of the menace In the manner in which the Indiana State Tax Board is Interpreting the provisions of the Tuthill-Kiper act in an attempt to set aside a final finding of the Indiana State Supreme Court and of Judge Linn Hay of Court, room 3, in de daring that the horizontal increase orders of the State tax board of Aug. 23, 1910, are void in Marlon County. w*a mad# yesterday by Attorney Willtam H. Thompson before Judge Hay. Attorney Thompson launched an attack upon the actions of the ctate Legislature passing a law which, as interpreted by the State tax board, virtually sets aside a decree of the highest court of tbe State. The argument was oiade by Attorney Thompson in supporting a petition of the taxpayers of Washington Township, asking that an injunction be issued restraining County Treasurer Ralph Lemcke from collecting the horizontal tax Increases and preventing the tax board from enforcing its so-called equalisation orders as based on the Tuthill-Kiper act. Prior to the argument of Mr. Thompson, counsel filed five additional suite In behalf of the taxpayers of Frsnklln, Warren, Wayne, Perry and Pike, seeking the same relief as asked by the farmers of Washington Township. The plaintiffs in tbe additional cascß

latter board ordering the same horlsontal increases as mad# by the State Tax Board on Aug. 23, 1919, put on the tax duplicates, amounted to the setting sslde of flnsl finding of the Indiana State Supreme Court. ‘‘Snch an action can reauit in nothing else but the entire usurpation of the Judiciary,” aald Attorney Thompson. "If the Tuthill-Kiper act can be applied as # has bean done, then no Security can b granted to a litigant in court,” he contended. Mr. Thompson emphasised the point that If tbe Legislature can meet in spetl*l session and enact n law gives the State Tax Board the power to <lo something which the State Supreme Court and Judge Hay had declared to be Illegal, then final decrees of court can be “wiped out and aet aside at will.” This contention appeared to be one of the strongest points of the argument of Mr. Thompson and a point on which he devoted much attention and cited many court opinions.

It brings values that almost surpass belief —there are even silk plush coats to sell at $19.75. There is nothing in the market conditions to produce a sale like this. But several otherwise shrewd makers allowed themselves to get a bit panicky by reason of the recent hot -spell, and closed out a thousand coats to us at a price that enables us to hold a sale that is wonderful.

Counsel contended that the decision ot Judge Hay In declaring the horizontal increases illegal and void is still in effect and force because the State Supreme Court upheld the finding of the lower court “They have placed the same old horisontal Increases on the taxpayers of Marion County without a single change, the very same ,horizontal increases which honor and the State Supreme Court declared to be void,” stated Mr. Thompson te Judge Hay. Another point on which Mr. Thompson dwelt at length was that neither the tax board or the county board of review issued notices to the taxpayers that hearings were to be held for the purpose of Increasing assessments for 191# under the guise of authority of the Tuthlll Kiper aet. The attorney went into detail concerning the alleged exceeaive harden placed upon the taxpayers by virtu# of the horizontal Increases because the property was assessed above the true cash value.

Many other points were advanced in interest of the petition by Attorney Thompson and Jndge Hay asked many questions besides hearing the TuthillKiper act read in full. Attorney Thompson argned for more than two hours this morning and resumed speaking at 2 o'clock. Deputy Attorney General U. S. Lssh was to follow Mr. Thompson. Defendant Ralph Lemcke, county treasurer, took the stand and testified that his office was open for the collection *f taxes on the figures on toe tax duplicate* which now includes the horizontal increases. He stated that if the taxes were not paid on time the property involved would be advertised for sale in an effort to col lock back taxes. This admission of Leme'ie was one of the chief contentions of the farmers that unless Lemcke was restrained they would be deprive! of their property without due process of jaw. / The hearing was scheduled to continue throughout the day.
