Car Taxing Is Stopped
The State Board of Equalization urged a halt to motor vehicle tax rolls for 1953 and announced new 1954 procedures under LB 165. A flat $1 tax for 1953, with 1954 values to be derived from adjusted actual values, must be reported to counties by July 1, and a December meeting will set values for new cars.
