County Assessed
Valuation Is
Sl,449 Per Man
NEW YORK -- For the first
time since 1957. the Government
has made a full-scale survey of
nroDerty tax values in Mason
County and in other areas
throug:hout the country.
It was undertaken ly the Cen-
sus Bureau in connection with its
1962 Census of Governments. As
a result, data is now available on
the 67,449,000 pieces of real and
personal property that are carried
on local tax rolls in the United
States.
In Mason County, it shows, the
gross value of local property came
to $24,494,000. as compared with
the total on the books in 1957,
$17,077,000. Deducting the portion
that was tax-exenmt locally, the
net amount was $23,767.000.
This constituted the tax base
upon which local tax rates were
applied, but it was not the full
market value of the property in-
volved. Normally, property is as-
sessed for tax purposes at farbe-
low its actual value.
THE LOCAL assessment roll,
which was the basis for tax pay-
ments due in 1962, consisted of
real property in the sum of $18,-
929,000 and" personal property of
$4.838.000.
. The survey shows that the pro-
perty tax continues to be the ma-
jor source of local government fi-
nancing, accounting for nearly 90
percent of all revenue at that le-
Vel.
It lists $367 billion in property
available for taxation by local
aencies. Not included in this to-
tal are buildings bclonging to hos-
pitals, schools and churches with
tax-exempt status and public
buildings.
Taxable property values have
soared nearly 30 percent since the
1957 survey, the Census Bureau
reports. This rapid growth is at-
tributed in large part to new con-
struction in the period, both resi-
dential and commercial• To some
degree, also, it is due to higher
assessing of property.
MORE THAN HALF of the 67
million pieces of real estate list-
ed on local assessment rolls are
non-farm, residential properties.
Another one-fifth are acreage and
farm plots. Vacant lots, which
number 13 million, are nearly one-
third as numerous as residential
properties.
What does :Mason County's as-
sessment roll represent in terms
of local
• population ? In effect, it
m equivalent to $1,449 in taxa-
ble property for every man, wo-
man and child in the county.
This is more than is liste@ for
most places in the State of Wa-
perShingt°n'capita.the average being $1,125

last biennium according" to the
Commission's 19th biennial report
submitted today to Governor Al-
bert D. Rosellini. Copies of the
64-page booklet were distributed
to legislators.
For the two-year period end-
ink June 30. 1962, total Tax Com-
mission revenue was $687.589.831,
an increase of 13.6 per cent over
the preceding biennium. Collection
costs were low. less than 90 cents
per $100 in revenue.
During the biennium the state
two-nlill property tax. levied by
the Tax Commission in its ca-
pacity as the State Board of
Equalization and collected by the
State Treasurer. produced $21.-
853. 520.
Commenting on its audit pro-
gram. the Commission reported
that despite limitations on the size
of its audit staff, total audit re-
covery was nearly $14,500,000. An-
nual recovery per auditor aver-
aged about $90,000 and for each
dollar of salary and expense that
was a return of $14 to the state.
The Collection Section in fiscal
1962 collected 6.272. warrants on
past due accounts as compared
with 4.567 in 1960 and 4.911 in
1961.

Carlson points out. Uncle Sam is
makin K it possible for you lo take
refund in Series E Savings
Bonds by the simple expedient of
putting an "X" in the apln'opriatc
box on the tax form.
Last year some 40 million tax-
paycrs received cash refunds on
their la.xes. Judging from samp-
lings of OlmUOn. a tot of them
would have preferred to gel their
money m Savings Bonds it" tbcy'd
had the chance. Bond Chairman
Carlson \\;\'ants to make sure ally
of them who live in Mason County
know they now have that chance.
The way the bond option works
is simple. Thn Treasury will issue
the smallest possible number ot
E Bonds of the largest possible
denominations to covet, the am-
ount of the refund. If there's any-
thing left over, a check will be
written for the balance. Details
are given in the instructions.
What about joint returns ? Carl-
son gave us the answer to that
one too. "John and Mary Smittf'
on the tax return beeonles "John
or Mary Smith" on the bond reg-
istration, making them co-owners.
