the issue of fluoridation of the
city water supply on the
November general election ballot.
He was told 338 of the
signatures which had been
presented the previous week had
been certified to the county
auditor.
The 338 signatures would not
be a sufficent amount to get the
issue on the ballot, Rolf said, and
asked if he could present
additional signatures.
City Attorney B. Franklin
Heuston advised him that he
should wait until he is notified by
the city clerk or county auditor
that the number of names is not
sufficient. He would then have 10
days to submit additional
signatures.
We give advice, but we do not
inspire conduct.

An improved county
assessment ratio for the coming
year was announced this week by
County Assessor Willis Burnett.
Burnett said he had been
notified by the State Department
of R~venue that the assessment
ratio for the county for 1971 tax
collections would be 37.7.
This is considerably higher
than the ratio for this year's
taxes.
In order to compare the two,
it is necessary to double the 13.6
ratio from last year. The
adjustment is needed because of
the change from a 25 per cent to
a 50 per cent assessment level.
Comparatively, the assessment
ratio for this year would have
been 27.2 using the same basis as
the 37.7 figure for the coming
year's taxes.
The increase in assessment
ratio will be especially beneficial
to schools which saw a decrease ill
the amount of state
apportionment money they
received because of the low
assessment ratio last year.
The State Department of
Public Instruction figures local
tax support on the basis of the
dollar amount which would be
collected on a 50 per cent
assessment as determined by the
State Department of Revenue.
Assessment ratios in the state
ranged from 47.4 per cent in
Skamania County to 26.2 per
cent in Whitman County.
Burnett said the improvement
in the county assessment ratio is
due largely to a state program
under which county assessor's
offices were allocated additional
funds to hire more help to speed
up evaluations.
Mason County participated in
the program last year, and, was
recently informed that it had
been allocated $36,840 for the
coming year.
Burnett has submitted a
supplemental budget for the
coming year under which three
field deputies and three office
deputies are being hired using the
state funds.
