Gambia Necesario en- la Ley de Reamorti-
zacion Bursum.

La ley de reamortizaci6n pasada por
la asamblea Legislative pasada % de-
fectiva en- dos ~respectos, y por esta ra-
ION no ha t~rabajado bien. Uno es que
los municipios no son permitidos de
emitir bonos de reamortizaci6n que lle-
van mas de A por ciento de redito annual.
ST este provisto fuese cambiado a modo
de permitir q los condados exredir bo-
nos de reamortizaci6n al 5 por ciento,
So verifcaria tai reamortizaci6n como
contempla la ley. Ell otro es ell que
prohibe q los condados de reamortizar
sus deudas existentes q raz6n de mas
de ID por ciento de su avaloramiento
tasable y amillarado. En- Ell ccndado
de Santa Fe, por ejemplo, no puede
ef~ectuarse bajo este provisto, y 81 con-
dado esta pagando 6 4 ocho por ciento
sobre algunos de u bonos, cuando po-
dria conseguir n rebaja q B por cien-
to 8 menos redito. Por cierto, el con-
dado de Santa Fe no podria soportar
bonos de 5 por ciento sobre toda su
deuda, pero Sc cree que 81 podria por
medic de bonos al 8 4 por ciento, 81
81 provisto de Is por ciento fuese cam
biado a modo de permitir int reamor-
tizaci6n de mayor alcance. Sc debe
permitir q los condados y ciudades que
reamorticen sus deudas actuales q
una prorrata reditual que no exceda de
5 por ciento, pagadera donde y como
SO crea propio. ST la ley Bursum fue-
SO cambiada en estos respectos no hay
duda que tendria buen efecto y seria
para los m%ejores intereses del pueblo.
