,;: ■■' • -' ■" ♦ [PEEBS ASSOCIATION. J IN VERCARGILL, yesterday.. The Assessment Court for the borough of Inyercargill sat to-day. The serious work of the court was .reduced to a little over a hundred objections from 60 or 70 objectors. The court during the day heard 10 oh- . jections, in each of which the protest was mainly' with the object of having the unimproved value reduced. In eight cases the unimproved value, was red need by. the court and the amount of the reduction was added to the value of the improvements on the properties in nearly every case. Two decisions were reserved. In one case a point was raised- whether the valuations had been made in accordance' with the Government Valuation of' Land Act, the contention being tha.t the man who had made the assessment was not. "a valuer of reputed Ideal knowledge." This point was reserved for argument at a later stage.
