Description:Excerpt from Biennial Report of the Wisconsin State Tax Commission to the Legislature But while the legislature imposed this duty on the. Tax commis sion, it utterly failed to provide it with the necessary machinery to carry it out. There are over assessment districts in the state, many of which have one or more assistants, so that the total number of persons employed in the assessment of the property of the state each year is not less than Except in a few chartered cities, all these assessors are chosen by popular vote at the general spring elec tion in April and required to begin their work on the first day of May following. There is no test of ability or experience required in the selection of these assessors, and the salary prescribed is such as to deter competent men from accepting the post. While the tax com mission is charged with the duty of securing uniformity in assess ments and equality in the distribution of the tax burden, it can neither select the assessing officers, nor prescribe their qualifications, nor fix their compensation, nor dismiss them for incompetency. The result is that different assessing officers are chosen at random every spring with no requirement of qualification, responsibility or experience, directed to assess over worth of property in the following two months in a uniform and equitable manner. It would be difficult to conceive of a more absurd or illogical method of securing uniformity or efficient service. Imagine the effect on a private' business required to be conducted in the same manner namely, by employing a general manager to conduct it and then depriving him of the power to hire his own help, fix their compensa tion, or dismiss them for neglect or incompetency. Yet this is precisely the status of the tax commission in relation to assessments under existing law. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
