Honolulu, October 11. The Sup
reme Court today, in a decision of,
which Chief Justice Hartwell Is the
author, sustained tho Tax Appeal
Court in the matter of the assess
ment of tho Wailuku Sugar Company.
Tho company made a return valuing
its property at $1,700,000. The
asssessor raised it to $2,380,000, and
on appeal the Tax Court decided the
value to be $2,000,000.- The assessor
appealed. The court holds, that
while that lower court mighuproper-
ly havo sustained a higher valuation,
I- .
mete ia uu ouumuL niau lUCMTBIua
Hon was erroneous or based on a
wrong theory or insufficient data,
wherefore it is sustained.
James L. Coke was the attorney
for the Wailuku Sugar Company.
while the valuation fixed by tho
Tax Appeal Board and confirmed by
tho bupreme Court is higher than
the return made by the Company it
is just the figure fixed by tho com
