Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the State Board of Equalization of Alabama: From September 14th, 1915, to October 1st, 1918
Section 27 - With reference to the provision, No commission shall be allowed or received on any assess ments of local or special county school taxes, we desire to call attention to the fact that. Under the present Rev enue Act the duties of the assessor have been considera bly increased without. Commensurate compensation. In all counties but two (jefferson and Montgomery) the assessor is compensated by fees, and in our Opinion it is vital that adequate pay be given. With development of methods the office becomes increasingly important, and aside from the fact that the official should receive fair treatment, adequate compensation will always attract efficient men. On the other hand, -where it is denied, even with intention of relieving expense upon a worthy fund, the losses under insufficient administration may overbalance the saving of commissions. We further recommend that the assessor be allowed compensation equal to that allowed the collector.
