New State Tax
Levy is Smaller
Than Forecast
Unofficially Placed at 2.37 Mills;
Due to Large Increase in In
tangible Revenue.
Lincoln, July 29. Though the
state tax levy for 1929 will exceed
last year's it will not equal the early
estimate of 2 mills, it was indicated
Monday at the office of Harry Scott,
tax commissioner.
A tremendous increase in revenue
under the new intangible tax law,
coupled with a gain in total valu
ation of tangible properties, will re
duce the estimated levy to probably
2.37. figures foreshadowed.
Prior to a final meeting of the
board of equalization Aug. 2, it may
call Assessor Sam Greenleaf of Oma
ha to explain why increases in
Douglas county on intangible hold
ings are relatively less than the rest
of the state, it was suggested.
Law Held Valid.
The law was held unconstitution
al in district court in Omaha. The
case will be taken to the supreme
court.
During the current week the state
board of equalization will meet to
fix the amount of the levy as pro
vided or by the legislature ol 1927.
In 1928 the state levy was 26 mills,
which included .22 mill for the cap
itol and 1.84 for the general fund.
The increase this year is necessitated
to provide for enlarged appropria
tions made by the legislature.
Rail Valuation Up.
Property of all classes. Commis
sioner Scott reports, has ben raised
exceedingly compared with 1928,
with the most marked showing on in
tangibles which are apraised this
year at approximately 1300,000,000.
whereas the former figure was $172,
500.000. Tangible property is raised
$35,700,000 while the railroads are
boosted approximately $1,562,185 un
der their last valuations. The aggre
gate assessment of all tangibles, in
cluding the carriers, is $3,163,154,
664. Class A intangibles, under the
new law, hopped from $65,500,000 a
year ago to $157,000,000 this year
and in class B the gain is from $107,
000.000 to $143,000,000.
With the state receiving one
sixth of all revene from intangible
taxes, the share this year is esti
mated at $256,000, whereas in 192S
it received but $116,45S, an increase
of nearly 120 per cent.

BUS RATES CUT
From 'Wednesday' Daily
The bus fare to Omaha received
a Blash today when Ike Gillensky of
the De Luxe bue lines announced
that the fare over his line between
Plattsmouth and Omaha would be
forty cents in the future instead of
seventy-five cents as at the present
time. The bus lines have been run
ning a rate of $1 for a round trip
and now this rate is further slashed
by the De Luxe line to forty cents
straight for a one way passage. This
reduction brings the fare back al
most to the days of the two cent
railroad rate when the fare to Oma
ha was forty-two cents.

solitary one on the recent unsuccess
