The new act would give the local collector but about three months and three weeks to collect aU the taxes In this county, which is thought to be an impossible task. The bill provides that the coun ty commissioners shall constitute the board of equalization with the county assessor meeting with them in an advisory capacity only. The bill provlrdes that all special acts giving special times for sheriffs of various counties to settle taxes be repealed and that taxes be settled by the third Monday In January. All that have not settled by that time are to be reported and the state auditor is to certify the reported taxables of the county for the previous year plus ten per cent, within sixty days to the state insurance department and then within 90 days from the third Monday in January the Insurance department is required to bring suit against the delinquent sheriff for taxes due. The state tax commission Is allowed $10,000 instead of $6,000 for enforc ing the provisions of the machinery act.
