TaYiur Franchises,

''Our Board Of Equalization said Joseph
Putryle yesterday, Exercised by the fact
that a downtown corner, the key to a
whole block. was recently sold at a fancy
price, thought fit 20 pile up the assessments
on surrounding property, much OF which
was already overburdcned. This action,
while oppressive TO some owners and det-
rimental 10 real estate business, will bring
in but a paitry sum In taxation compared
with what might be harvested II some
tax measure similar to the Ford fran
chise tax law. which has just been declared
constitutional by the Supreme Court OF
New York. were enacted here.
Under the Ford law, which is being hit
terly fought by the corporations. twelve
reliable franchises. assessed last year at a
little over SOL .0o. will now pay taxes on
over sl9l. 100000, an increase of about $780,
900. 600. Even this Increase is more than
$40, COO 900 short OF the original increased as
sessment made by the board Now, surely,
this Is a move In the right direction. The
State and the city have every moral right
to assess at their just value the privileges
they extend to corporations. In our own
case such a course would yield a very
large additional revenue and would. il
seems to me, materially relieve the tinan-
Cial str,rseDCy."
