Tax Levy Near Certainty To Help Pay Bonus
Columbus AP reports a statewide levy on all taxable property is likely next year to fund World War II veterans bonus bonds. State Tax Commissioner C Emory Glander said the levy is needed unless excess surplus funds appear. The financing plan would use monthly $1,000,000 allocations for 18 years from 1949, totaling about $180,000,000. the rest about $32,500,000 would come from the levy. The General Assembly twice appropriated surplus funds to cover bond payments to avoid the levy.
