PASSED TEE House
The Colby Franchise Referendum
Bill Goes Through
THE SENATE MAY KILL 1T
The Purchaser of Tax Title Is Re-
quired TO Pay All Back Taxes
Against the Property That Have
Accumulated.

Lansing, Mich. May 29.-Rep. Col
by last night had the house pass a bill
which, if it becomes law, will pre-
vent the street railway company in
Detroit from getting a franchise grab
from the "ripperized" common coun-
ell 1t provides that no street railway
franchise shall be granted by the COM
mon council uniess the proposition is
first approved by the people at an
election. The bill may be killed in the
senate.
Rep. Colby said: IF there is no
street railway franchise deal behind
the recent Detroit ripper legislation
the powers that be ought to let this
bill go through the senate and become
q law"
The legislature devoted considerable
time to the consideration of Detroit
measures.
Rep. Bland got through his bill au-
thoriZing the people of Detroit at the
November, 1902, election to vote upon
the proposition to have 100000 of
bonds for the erection of a new bridge
connecting the city with the upper
end of Belle Isle. On the floor of the
house Bland had the bill amended so
as not TO allow tracks to be laid and
street railway cars to be run over the
proposed brluge.
The Bland blanket Detroit charter
amendment bill is now up to Gov.
bliss, the house having concurred in
the senate amendments. In addition
to the charter changes the bill pro-
vides another important change rela-
tive to a system of assessment and col
lection Of taxes for the highway fund,
which will now be made by a general
assessment instead of by wards, as
heretofore. By this method the tax
rate for the entire city becomes uni
form, whereas, under the old system
the rate varied as much as 81 cents a
thousand.
The purchaser of a tax title is re-
quired to pay all back taxes against
the property that have accumulated.
The total appropriations made by
the present legislature amount to S5,-
542, 1926, including the general pur-
pose, or omnibus, bill Appropriations
made by previous legislature or stand

tax, to be raised by taxation this year

prosecuting officials in charge of the
grand jury investigation, who were in

now expect the star promoter to ap-
pear as a witness. Yesterday Rep.
Vandercook was the first witness. He
had long session with Prosecutor
Ward before going on the stand, and
was before the jury the better part of
an hour. 1t is evident that he had
something of interest to impart, and
it is said to have been in connection
with the efforts made to secure spe-

A News Service Without Parallel

There is ample Justification for the
claim made 10y the Chicago Record
Herald that its readers enjoy every day
in the week. Sundays included, news
service that is without parallel in range
and completeness. The reason is obvi-
ous-the combination of the varied and
extensive facilities of the two great dali
les, the Chicago Record and the Chicago
Times Herald. In addition to the indie
pendent news facilities of both papers,
the Record Herald receives the COM
plete news service of the New York
Herald, the New York Tribune and the
Associated Press; and when it is con
sidered that its news columns are supple
mented by all the special features so popu-
lar in the Chicago Record and the Chica-
go Times-Herald it will be seen that the
Record Herald holds a unique place
among the great newspapers of the
United States.
