PANAMA FAIR

(Continued from page 1.)

' was delivered by the Rt. Rev. E. J. Hanna, followed by the reading of a Paalm by Rabbi Martin Meyer. Addresses were made by President C. C. Moore, Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane, Governor Johnson, Mayor Rolph and other officials of the exposition. At high noon, the real ceremonies attendant upon the opening of the "Jewel city" began. President Moore telephoned to the President of the United States at the white house in Washington that the exposition was completed and ready to be opened. President Wilson immediately pressed a button and completed an electric circuit over a telegraph line to the radio telegraphic station now being operated by the United States navy department at Tuckerton. N. J. This automatically worked the relay key In the Tuckerton station, and instantly powerful electric waves, generated by the Federal Telegraph company radio apparatus flew 3,000 miles across the country and were received at the fair grounds on two long antennae wires stretched from the tower of jewels. From these the electric current was transposed, and sent throughout the exposition grounds to the machinery hall where the main door opened, and to the Fountain of Energy, which began to play. Exposition officials said that by tonight at midnight 250,000 people will have passed through the turnstiles, should the weather be anything like favorable. The exposition consists of 250 building In three main groups, lying in garden plots and sunken pools. It stretches in a glittering band half a .mile wide along the southern shore of San Francisco bay-. - - , It has cost 150,000,000. Of this $12,500,000 was raised by this city; $5,000,0D01jy the state of California, and $2.500,000 by the fifty-eight California counties. The foreign and state participation represents $10,000,000, the amusement zone $10,000,000, and the outlay by individual exhibitors another $10,000,000. Eighty Thousand Exhibitors. There are eighty thousand individual exhibitors, with displays arranged along forty-seven miles of exhibit aisles in eleven of the main exhibit places. Forty-five foreign nations are represented, many of them -having increased their space since the war. Forty-three of the states and territories of the United States are represented. Twenty-eight states and territories have official buildings. Twenty-four foreign nations have pavilions. Entering through the main gates at Scott street one is immediately within the south gardens, 900 feet In length. 500 feet In width, and three lagoons find rich spaces of panales in bloom. Festival Hall. To the east, and commanding that end of the gardens is Festival hall, where the greatest pipe organ in the world is installed. . With its inspiring dome, 152 feet in diameter and 185 feet in height, the Palace of Horticulture commands the west side of the gardens. Facing the exposition gates as one enters is the Fountain of Energy In the middle lagoon. Across the South Gardens are the Tower, of Jewels and the facades of four of the main exhibit palaces, linked with four that face north and San Francisco bay, into a unit by colonnades. To the extreme right is the Palace of Varied Industries, and next to it the Palace of Manufacture, the. Court of Flowers separating the two. To the left of the tower Is the Palace of Liberal Arts, and then the Palace of Education and Social Welfare, the Court of Palms separating these two.

EQUALIZE RATES

(Continued from page 1.)

Four of the eleven counties were not represented. They were Dearborn, Decatur, Ripley and Rush. Of the seven represented, Union was the only one from which the county assessor did not attend. Counties Send Delegates. The representation follows: Delaware, four; Fayette, eleven; Franklin, one; Henry, eleven; Randolph, twenty-one; Union, two; Wayne, forty-five. Several others did not register. Prosecutor Reller went Into an explanation of the dog tax law which he said is really a lioense, and must be collected when the assessor makes out the assessment sheets. According to the prosecutor the dog tax is not an anual tax but may be collected on the same dog a half dozen times: a year, or as many times as the dog changes ownership, as receipts for the 'payment of the tax are not transferable. "The prosecution of delinquent dog owners is the worst duty the prosecuting attorney has because, it is usually some one too poor to own a dog." said Mr. Reller. "It makes no difference whether a person owns a dog, if he is keeping one he is liable tor the tax. The penalty for delinquency is )5 to $20. There is also a penalty against the trustee and the assessor for failing to collect. Must Pay on Pups. "A three-months-old pup is regarded

as a dog. If you find any pups younger than three months, list them and collect the tax when they reach three months of age. Homeless and ownerless dogs must be killed. The purpose of the law is to provide a fund from which live stock losses can be paid. Some of the assessors raised the question as to what recourse a dog owner has if bis dog is killed. He has none unless he also lists the dog as personal property and pays another tax on him, members of the tax board said. ' " . Tbe assessors applauded-when Dr. Scales of Boonville, the hew .member of the state board, said the pay of assessors is not commensurate with the duties and responsibilities. "We want you to be big enough and brave enough to assess according to your best judgment with real fairness to every man," was the advice Dr. Scales gave. Mr. Wolcott spoke of some of the inequalities in assessments in the state, discovered through the assessment report blanks which have been provided for the past two years. County Scale Differs. '.'Through these reports we found adjoining counties differing from thirty to fifty per cent in assessments," Mr. Wolcott said. "In one county the average assessment of household goods was $19; in another it was $5'. "Tax rates are increasing alarmingly all over the state. Wayne county is one of the few counties where the rate has not increased at a marked pace. The higher the rate, the more people try to hide their property. "We don't expect a revolution in assessments this year. But we expect the beginning of a great change. The taxing laws are not flexible. "Tbey say, 'assess at tbe true' Sash value and that is the thing to do. Do not assess real estate at 100 cents on the, dollar and then assess merchandise; at thirty cents on the dollar' and don't assess $200 land at $30 an acre and take $100 land at the same figure. "I will give Mr. Mathews a list of the chairman of the other meetings in the state. These nine chairmen will get together and fix a uniform rate of assessment for the state before March 1. When we get that schedule, other matters will adjust themselves. There is only one basis of taxation, it is the true cash value." Explains Expert Sysl rt. When assessors raised a question as to the procedure when a merchant lets his stock run down at assessment time and then stocks up afterwards, Mr. Wolcott explained the system introduced in Wayne county two or three, years ago of hiring experts to assess corporations, merchandise and other taxables of a similar nature. Auditor Bowman spoke of the difference between assessing a few years ago and assessing now. It was formerly a practice of assessors to leave schedules along their route to be filled out but It Is now necessary for the assessors to come in personal contract with the tax payer, he said. "Unless you do, school boys would be better because they can get around quicker." Mr. Bowman said. "We have special assessors here who have been very successful. One- assessor has taken 142 corporations in Richmond. Now he is going to take every corporation in the county and will receive pay for the work from each township. Card System Used. "Our card system of keeping record of mortgage notes has made some interesting disclosures. We have found there is some fictitious indebtedness to avoid taxation. , . '"I believe ..Wayne county has had higher assessments than other coun-

ties. It haB been about fifty per cent here and thirty-three and one-third in other counties if not less. . We have some inequality In our county. The real estate in the city la assessed at sixty per cent and in 'the county at forty per cent," ' The - question . was brought up by assessors as to the change in farm values due to the different methods of farming. An assessor said he has had cases of the fertility of farms decreasing because of the poor farming methods. . ... - Members of tbe tax board said the assessors should use their own judgment In deciding such matters. Instructions were given regarding the assessment "of real estate improvements and improved real. estate. James Houck, third member of the tax board also spoke. The meeting was led by William Mathews, Wayne county assessor.
