Salem Taxes Top Average, Survey Shows NEW YORK, Feb. -Property owners in Salem have higher taxes to pay for 1948 than do those in most other cities in the United States, according to a survey of 333 cities released by the National Municipal league here. The 'adjusted" tax rate in Salem comes to $3019 per $1,000 worth of property, comparing with the average for all the cities of $29.57, and with the rate of $28.90 found in other cities of its size group, 30,000 to 50,000 population. The figures are adjusted ones, corrected from the nominal rates to enable comparison among cities. This was necessary since many cities use less than the actual value of property as the legal basis of assessment.

Salem uses 41 per cent of true value. Its actual rajtt is $73.50. The total assessed value of property in Salem is set at $22,352,447, equivalent to $725 per capita. The survey discloses that adjusted tax rates have risen 6 per cent since 1947, reflecting the increased costs of municipal government. The year before that the tax rise was 15.7 per cent.

The conservative increase at the present time seems to indicate, according to the report, "that municipalities are following a prudent course in not gearing their assessments, as well as their financial structures, to inflationary property values."
