Mining output law failed to cut taxes claims says auditor
An auditor declares that the mine output law did not relieve mining firms of taxation. Examining 1914 to 1919 data from Grant Socorro McKinley and Lan counties, he shows mineral land values and other mining property rose sharply under new supervision, with total assessments nearly quadrupling since 1914. He identifies firms including Chino Copper, Phelps Dodge, Mogollon, and others and argues the law increased overall valuations by about 500 percent across the period.
