County levies went from $261,- 355,899 for 1949-50 to $303,781,966 for 1950-51, a 16,2 per cent in- crease in one year.

"Property taxes are only one of the revenue sources of local gov- ernments in California," the as- zociation pointed out. "Counties, cities, and school dis- tricts also share in state-collect- ed revenues and many cities col- lect good-sized sums from licenses, fees, and sales taxes "It makes little difference which pocket the money comes from, the people have to pay all the taxes. "The heavy increase in local axes during the post-war period cannot be continued in the face of demands for taxes to finance mili- tary expenditures at the national level," the Taxpayers' association declared.
