The equalization factor thus determined shall be Used in like manner in each of the t hree succeeding yeafs. This equalisation power by the department does not include the right to review or change ^dividual local assessments Ihade by any local assessment officer. •The department compares valuations put upon property by the local assessors of a county or district, as revised by. the county board of review or, board of appeals, with the estimated full, fair ;cash value of such property. Under the statutes, the department determ i n e s s u c h r e 1 a t i o n S h i p through analysis of bona fide property sales, property appraisals, and such other means as it considers proper and reasonable. When the department has completed its equalization of assessments, it sends to each county clerk the percentage to be added to or deducted from the locally assessed valuation of property in such county. Then the county clerk applies this percentage adjustment to every individual piece of locally assessed property in the county, both real and personal, and the resulting equalized assessed valuation is. the basis for the extension of the taxes for the year of the ossessift&it. For convenience in computing the equalized value, the department also provided each county with a multiplier, which may be used instead of the percentage equalize!- in determining the tax base. For example, if it is found that the aggregate assessed valuation of property in X cpunty for . a given year is 25 per cetit of the estimated full, fair cash vahle, the percentage to be added Is 300, and the multiplier is 4. Accordingly, if the assessed valuation of a vacant lot as locally made is $75, its equa,: lized valuation for tax extension purposes by: the county clerk may be determined either by increasing $75 by 300 per cent or by multiplying $75 by 4. Either way, the equalized valuation is $300. Boards Of revieW, authorized to hear the complaints of aggrieved taxpayers and otherwise adjust the tax rolls, have existed continuously in Illinois sifice the Advent of the general property tax in 1839. In counties with township organization (other than Cook and St. Clair) the chairman of the board of supervisors is ex officio chairman of the board of review. However, if the chairman of the county board so requests, the county board is authorised to delegate some member other than the chair- Now's the Time to Buy Winter Motoring Protection During Our PRE-WINTER SALE OF USED CARS *-loweif Prices OrriTop Qinfiff' Used Can Taken In Trade On New Hamblen SEE THESE...

In counties not under township organization, the board of cdunty commissioners serves as the bdard o€ 'review. St. Clair cdunty has a board of three members, elected for six year tehns. In Cook couhty, the fuhcticms of a board of review are performed by a board of appeals of "two members elected for four year terms. tn the important work of eqUali^ng assessments, boards of review of downstate counties are required to act as equalizing authorities between all the townships within a county, tinder legislation passed in 1957, they do this by cotnparing assessed valuations .with sales values, appraisals, anb such other means as the boards deem necessary. To mdke SuCh comparisons and to gather research data for the bobrds, the 1957 legislation mandatorily requires boards of review in counties containing 25,000 or more inhabitants (ahd not having the appointed office of cotinty supervisor' of Assessments) to appoint clerks -- counties under 25,000 Inhabitants, hot having Supervisors of assessments, may appoint such clerks. In equalizing, the board changes valuations by making uniform additions to or deductions from the assessments op a percentage basis. Thus, it might decide that an equitable assessment requires adding a certain percentage to the assessment to the assessments of all property on urban lots in one township or in a part of that township. Or it might deduct a certain percentage from a l l a s s e s s m e n t s made in a township because it Considers that the local assessor has valued property in his jurisdiction on a higher level than the assessor of other townships. In adjusting levels of assessments between townships, boards of review in any one year cannot increase or decrease the total assessment of any assessment district by more than 25 per cent of the equalized valuation of the township for the previous year (of course, additions, depletions and deletions are excluded). Such changes represent "Equalization" of local assessments. Equalization does not correct inequalities between individual assessments -- these can be corrected only by reviewing each assessment separately -- but it does attempt to c or r e C t inequalities betwastu wfiole types of property or areas. PARROT SERVES AS "MASdoT" FOB MUSEUM EXHIBIT Vividly recalling a tradition prevalent in the American Navy of the Revolutionary War •--War of 1812 era, a loudly squawking and very milch alive parrot from Manama Was officially installed last wfeek as a permanent occupant of an exhibit at Chicago's Museum of Science and' Industry* To bear the very appropriate name "Popeye the Sailor Man," the parrot will be only one .of many attractions of an entirely new display that will include a Full-size reproduction of a large section of the starboard gun deck of an American fighting ship of ISO years ago when OUr Navy Was in its Infancy. Described by Museum officials as one of the most spectacular installat ions to jbe plated in the big lake froht institution, the new exhibit Is an addition to the already extensive "SeapoxVer" d is p ta jf presented to the Museum hy the Navy a year ago. It will give viewers a true picture of what our early meno'- wai- looked like both inside and out. As they get the first look at the exhibit, spectators will see a wide section of the ship's outer hull, with two Very businesslike 24-pounder guns stk*kiiig out from the gun-ports. Like the shipis of the early Na^y, the hull fcides are painted blabk with a wide white stripe hing aroUnd them at the port level. Decision to use a parrot jfn the exhibit was baked on old Navy customs.. Tales and pictures of early American fighting ship days almost invariably have shown a noisy parijot perched on one of the sailors shoulders or right where the action was hottest. The choice of the name, "Popeye" for the parrot also reflects popular thinking. The colorful, swashbuckling, o Id sailorman pictured in the widely followed Popeye newspaper and television cartoons has recome with countless young folks an almost accepted reminder of the carefree adventurers who accomplished su£h Well-nigh unbelievable feats on the seven seas in the days 6f yore.
