Topeka July 22 AP A state tax levy of 1.43 mills on the dollar for the current fiscal year was announced by Gov Clyde M. Reed. The levy, a 0.02 mill cut from last year, applies to a valuation of about 3.65 billion dollars and will raise roughly 5.22 million dollars. The total state taxes for 1929 and 1930 are listed at about 10.65 million dollars, down from 13.88 million in 1927 28.
