TAX BUDGET CUTS GRATIFYING TO FARM BUREAU MEMBERS AND OTHERS

Not since the Indiana Farm Bureau came into existence nearly 12 years ago have reports of cuts in local tax budgets been so gratifying as they have bt m during the last ten lays, according to Lewis Taylor, diector of the tax and legislative department, who made the statement in Indianapolis this week. “Citizens everywhere, particularly fanners, are in deadly earnest in arresting the incase in taxes,” he said. “Their attendance at budget meetings has oorne fruit in the general tendency :o cut appropriations to the lowest possible limit. This shows the power of friendly and intelligent discussion of public expenditures with county councils and township advisory boards.” However, in some instances the advice of interested citizens has been entirely disregarded and appropriations riiade over their protest, according to the Indiana Farm Bureau official. “In all such cases, an appeal should be taken to the state tax board for a review of appropriations so made," he continued. “This can be done by petition signed by

ten or more taxpayers other than those who pay poll tax only and who are affected by any such levy and any such rate who may feel aggrieved with any such tax levy or any item thereof." The law provides that such a petition must be filed with the county auditor not later than the fourth Monday in September which comes on the 22nd day of this month. “We want to urge fai;m bureau tax committees and officers to take immediate steps to perfect these appeals,” said Mr. Naylor. “This office will cooperate in every way and will furnish blank forms for this purpose upon application.” Regarding fines and bond forfeitures that should find their way into the common school fund, Mr. Naylor urges that all county farm bureaus should without delay take steps to see how much of this fund has failed to find its way into its proper place and that any failure of any of our officials in any of these respects should be promptly dragged out to the court house steps where all honest citizens may take a good square look at them.
