Town Board otRellel Elves ‘Sol-
diers the Benefit oltbs Usual
$1,000 Tax Abatement
The town board .0! relief, which
will complete its work'uuon the tax _
list today, has decided to grant
the usual exemutlons to army veter-
an: ill accdrdnnce with the law upon
that subject as it stood previous to the
changes made by the last session or
tbsgenoral assembly. The my intro-
moves the exemption provision and
substitutes therefore suite pension of
constitutionality ovtllls law has been
questioned. however, and the matter
is now awaiting tile-decision of the
Supreme court. As the board of relief
must: complete its work by the end
of the present month and there was
no possibility that the decision of the
supreme court would be received be»
fore that time, the board decided to
follow the custom of preceding years.
This action is in accord with that tale
en in many other places in the state
and was advised by William H. Cor-
bin, state tax commissioner. whose
opinion was asked. The exemption in
each case amounts to 31000
The reply 01 Commissioner Corbin
to the question as to what disposition
should be made of the matter was as
follows:
“I have lust asked the reporter or
the supreme court whether there will
be any further opportunitv during _
February for a decision to be‘handed
down relative to the constitutionality
of chapter 187 of the public acts of 1,
1911. which provides lor the payment. 1
of thirty dollars to the veterans of
the Civil wall in lieu of the statutory
exemptions. He advises me that there
is no likelihood of any such meeting
or the supreme court betel-e the first
Tuesday in March when it is possible
for such an opinion to be handed
down.
"Acting on the opinion at the attor-
ney general, the comptroller has an-
nounced that he will not make pay-
ments as provided in said chapter 187.
"While I have no statutory humor-
lty to give you a binding opinion, my
personal view is that in all towns
where the assessors did not deduct the
statutory exemption of soldiers.“ om.
