| John R. Carr, president of the state

unit of the National Small Businessmen’s Association, told members of the Kiwanis Club today at their luncheon in the Columbia Club. “This need is especially acute in Indiana since conditions: have reached such a point that taxes will soon destroy the businessman, who is the backbone of the country,” he said.

AUTOS WORTH 3 MILLIONS NOT

But Marion County Plans to Collect; Sends Cards To Owners.

’

By NOBLE REED About $2,800,000 worth of autos registered in Marion County are not on the township assessment books for taxation, records in assessors’ offices disclosed today. Failure of the owners of more than 14,000 cars to list theirymachines for 1939 taxes was revealed Stale Auto License Bureau, assessors said. James F. Cunningham, Center Township assessor, said about 12,200 cars owned in his township were not put on assessment lists when deputy assessors called at homes and offices last spring. About 1800 other cars were missing from the books of the eight other townships in the county, officials said.

Equals 1-Cent Levy

Failure to get the 14,000 unlisted cars on the books would result in a

levy to raise that amount for governmental purposes.

Center Township, about 2000 cannot be located, Mr. Cunningham said. Many of these .istéed wrong ad-

confuse taxing officials, it was said. Cards Carry Warning

“The 10,000 others either deliberately sought to escape paying taxes on them or neglected to list their cars through carelessness or oversight,” according to Mr. Cunningham. Through the double check system with the Auto License Bureau, however, very few of them still living in the county will escape being taxed, officials warned. Cards are being sent out to all owners whose machines are unlisted, notifying them to call at the assessor’s office and sign up for them or take the chance of having them put an the books by assessor's clerks at arbitrary valuations. Assessors urged business and professional men who have been listing their cars from downtown addresses to stop this practice because of the duplication of personal property assessments at their residential addresses.
