Railroad to arbitrate assessment dispute with Georgia
Comptroller General William O Wright said the Atlanta and West Point railroad plans to submit its property assessment dispute to arbitration after declaring the current appraisal around 4 500 600 too high. The railroad argues its income drop since 1912 justifies a lower rate and will name an arbitrator to the state railroad commission for Wright to appoint a representative. If the two arbitrators cannot agree within twenty days, a third arbitrator is to be chosen, with the governor making the final appointment if needed.
