$1.50 TAX LAW IS WEIGHED BY STATEC. OF C. Weaknesses of Rate-Making Measure Pointed Out in Report. Announcing that the pendulum on tax reduction ‘‘has swung too far,” the current bulletin of the Indiana State Chamber of Commerce is pointing out weaknesses of the present $1.50 tax limitation law. The bulletin has been prepared by L. S. Bowman, former state auditor, and director of the chamber's research department. The chamber neither opposes nor supports the $1.50 limitation, retention and strengthening of which has been supported in platforms of both major parties. The chamber points out disadvantages and advantages of the statue. Application of the new ratemaking law has resulted in tax reductions without corresponding budget reductions in many municipalities, the bulletin states. In other cases, there has been insufficient revenue to meet budget requirements. Working balances have been depleted. Tax anticipation loans were made to meet current expenses in some instances, the bulletin points out. Bond and interest indebtedness were defaulted. Other results of the law in some cases have meant that emergency improvements were delayed for want of revenue and crediting rating for ..borrowing was impaired. In support of the laW, the chamber's publication pointed out that it ‘‘subjects all budgets to an appointive county board, tax levies may be lowered but can not be raised, final authority is moved one step away from jurisdiction of officials who spend the money, and taxpayers are provided additional opportunity for carefully reviewing and planning the budget.
