Linda Jo Links Reporter TAX FACTS Important assessment changes in the State Revenue Act were made hy the General Assembly at its session in 1959, the Taxpayers' Federation of Illinois has reviewed. t The quadrennial assessment year for counties of less than 500.000 inhabitants Was changed to 1963 and every fourth year thereafter, except in townships lying wholly within a city of more than 50,000 population. In these townships, the assessment is to be made quadrennially be g i n n i n g in 1960. The law relative to ther a u n d r e n n i a l a s s e s s m e n t i n Cook county was changed to provide for the division of the county into , four assessment districts. The date as of which real property is assessed for taxation and a$ of which taxes become a lien against such property will be Jan. 1, commencing in 1960. (Personal property is still assessed for taxation each year as of April 1) The month in which application must be made for judgement and order of sale for taxes and special assessments on delinquent lands was changed from September to October. The adjournment date for Boards of Review in counties of 100,000 or more inhabitants was changed from Dec. t . to not later than Dec. 31. At recent sessions the Genen 1 Assembly ha$ adopted a number of amendments to the Revenue Act pertaining to exemptions. In 1955, all property of public building commissions as well as parking lots owned by schools, non-profit hospitals, and religious and charitable institutions became exempt. At the 1957 session, staff and student housing of schools and church-owned parsonages were exempted along with municipally- owned railroad terminal facilities. Laws adopted in 1959 exempt all. property .af Veterans' organizations used exclusively for charitable, patriotic and civic purposes. Also at this session, amendments exempt all property of park districts of less than 500,000 inhabitants and all property of public water districts. the total requests not yet acted upon. Taking into account requested postal rate- increases, Congress has exceeded budget requests, at latest stages of action on the bills thus far reported by about $300 million. Maurice H. Stans, U. S. Budget Bureau director, estimated that some forty spending measures before the current Congress "priced out at more than $326 billion" over a five-year period. They would, he said, add $50 to $60 billion annually to present federal expenditures. While Mr. Stans admitted he didn't expect such extreme measures to come to pass, there is no doubt that the urge to spend is on the upswing. The record is plain. Since the end of the Korean War, total federal spending, including highway aids, has increased from $67.8 billion (fiscal 1954) to an estimated $83.5 billion fqr fiscal year 1961, up 23 per cent. But behind this fact lies this sobering statistic: while spending for defense will have increased only 1 per cent, or from $43.3 billion to an estimated $43.'8 billion in that period, non-defense spending for domestic-civilian programs will have increased 86 per cent, or from $191 billion to an estimated $35.7 billion. The President's budget for the next fiscal year asks for $79.8 billion of spending and projects a $4.2 billion surplus to begin retirement of the huge $285 billion debt. There won't be much surplus left if even a few of the bigger current spending measures get by a Congress rushing fpr the "campaign" exit. Thus, the prospective $4,2 billion budget surplus is subject to "pressure" from all sides. If members of Congress are apathetic on these issues, this may reflect citizen apathy as well. With the key issues just ahead, it would seem that now is the time to alert citizens to facing up to the fiscal challenge of the 1960's. In this election year, Congressmen are being vigorously pressured to Vote "aye" to the spending of up to $50 or $60 billion over what the federal budget calls for in the year beginfliijg. July,; 1,. Taxpayers' Federation of Illinois said this week. Of the seven or eight bills yet to come out of the House Appropriations committee, four will carry the bulk of On the average, each of us in 1960 will work two hours and 16 minutes of every eighthour working day to meet our tax bills, the Taxpayers' Fed-' eration of Illinois stated. TJi|s means that each person will be working 4 minutes longer in 1960 to pay his tax bills than he did in 1958. According to a "1960 time card" for an eight-hour working day, prepared by Tag Foundation, the division is an follows: Taxes -- .2 hours 16 minutes. Food and Tobacco -- 1 hour 28 minutes. Housing and Household Operations -- 1 hour 24 minutes. Transporta t i o n -- 36 minites. Clothing. Accessories, etc. -- 34 minutes. Medical Care, etc. -- 19 minutes. Recreation -- 18 minutes. All Other -- 1 hour 5 minutes. In trying to find an answer to the question, "Where is the soaring cost going to halt?", it might be well to pause and reflect upon a simple principle of economics: "There is no such thing as a free lunch." Or, the reading of a little poem, which might be titled "The Wail of the Dollar," should bring home the peril of inflation: I want to be a dollar So that everywhere I go The people who possess me Can see arid feel and know. That with,me in their pockets, They have one hundred pence. And not in God be Trusting For forty-seven cents. . COMPLETES . STUDS' COURSE Milton J.
