"In one case," Mr Degen told ttM Commissioners, "we found that ttM county a.ssessment on a property la Easton was t7,500 and the etty •¦¦ cessment on the same property !• $30,000."
County Commissioners aald tlMy plan to make a thorough atudy At all assessments in an effort tB "bring them Into line" and SaatMl will  be studied first.
"But," Commiasioner John said, "no changes will be put effect unless the   entire   oouaty Is equalized.
"We have an entirely diSenal problem in the county", aald Oamt» mlssioner Charles Cnangst. "In ttW city there is one assessor, but ma have to deal with more thaa Mt assessors In at many wards aai districts. And each assessor hM Mg own idea of property values."
The Commissioners, under UM law. may revise any asseaanMOt flf* ures turned in by eounty They plan, however, to call into conferences to find out they arrive at their flures and them to place values on property that are more nearly equal thaa those that have been disclosed.
