BKA8LEY SAMPSON PACES REAL TAX PROBLEM DILEMMA Clinton, April 18. — The county commissioners of {tampion county hare recommended a 36 per cent honaonlal redaction in real celal values. At the same tint* they do not me, for their livea. how they arc to meet the expenses of tbn county from the funds available under tbe conati tutlonal limitation of 16 cents for State and county. And, too, the coun 130,000 short of the requirements for s *t* months' term. thu> necestilat tip s contribution of that amount from the State ruasury. The whole trouble is r.ot due bo he reduction in real estate values but largely to the falling off in per sonal property value*, it being estima led that the $8,000,000 of personal starts of last year have shrunk -o 000,000 tl.ii year. For instance, the one item of cotton show* a 75 per rent reduction in value, while mult"; follow with another immense shrink age in value, only to be outdone by the prospective decrease In the value of the county's 3,000 auto-auh'les. Kven the cutting out of the numer ous progreirsive agencies of the coup ty will not solve the prvbiem of fi nance, while there are few that would willingly consent to the dis continuance of theme most helpful agencies.
