COUNTY TAX RATE TO REMAIN SAME

There is little possibility of the state tax board increasing the assessment of property in Wayne county, according to CJounty Auditor Bowman. Wayne county's assessment comes up before the board Thursday and the county auditor will appear before the board to explain in detail the assessment of property in every township in the county. An increase of $1,356,450 is shown in the assessment of real and personal property in this county, and within all probability the assessment of railroads and public service corporations, which is done by a state commission, will make this increase even larger. The total assessment of property in Wayne county this year is $37,398,849. The total assessment of real estate is $23,899,390. The estimated assessment of public service corporations based on last year's assessment, is $4,045,299. Finland in the first half of 1914 exported 33,000 tons of paper pulp.
