The Taxed One-Ninth.

TO the Editor OF The Evening Star:
Won't you please to say to our board Of
aldermen up on the hill who are planning
the destruction of the capital city through
the agency of a personal tax bill, that they
should go slow and consider the results Of
such action before 1t is too late.
Washington is just beginning to grow and
to attract hither a class of people who are
able to build up beautiful city which will
be the pride of America-and their work
will soon double the real estate values Of
Washington.
Here are some pertinent facts which
should be considered by our aldermen in
the Senate and House. viz: One-third of
Washingtons population are colored peo-
pie who would not be affected by this pro-
posed tax law. One-third are poor white
people who would pay no personal tax;
one-third of the remaining third of the
population is made up Of senators, con-
gressmen, cabinet members, heads of bu-
reaus, transient military and naval people
and department clerks whose residence is
in the states. Another third of the last
third are taxable people, but whose legal
residences are also in the states, although
they spend their winters in Washington
Now there is left the last third of the re-
naming notwithstanding only q ninth of
the entire population of the national capi-
tal-whfch is to be mulcted out of 81 600 600
in personal taxes by board Of aldermen at
the Capitol building, when not one of the
450 aldermen bears a dollar of the burden
of their own assessment law. Think of IT!

A Confscating Tax.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The objections to the revival Of the per-
sonal property tax as proposed in the House
are manifold
1. With interest on bonds down to about
3 per cent it would be, as Mr. McDermott
of New Jersey said, confscation-to take
from people, especially women, whose reli-
ance in many cases is their income from
investments, one half of that.
2. 1t would inaugurate espionage and a
reign of terror among people with little
money laid away for a rainy day.
3. In Baltimore, as you can ascertain
the tax on personal property, state and
city, ranges from Al cents to 40 cents on slOO
as against $1.5O per 800 as proposed in the
obsolete law of II law not executed as
admitted, for twenty-five years. In Mary
land the tax on mortgages is per cent on
income. and the lender has to make oath
that he will pay the tax. Now by the House
bill the tax on a bond for s., 600 secured by
mortgage at 6 per cent, would be $75
This interest being $500, the tax on this
mortgage would be, in Baltimore '$24, or
about one-third.
4. A personal tax law in the District
ought to be framed, but such a law ought
to be framed carefully and with an idea
that 1t Shall be permanent. Such a law
ought to be drafted after full consideration
by joint commission. say Of three sena-
tors, three representatives and three citi-
zens, the citizens to be appointed by the
President, and day ahead should be fixed
when it should go into operation, and 1t
ought to be clearly defined who are bona
fide citizens and at what date in each year
the assessors should begin to make their
assessments, say either in January, Feb
ruary, March, April or May. Such a law,
properly framed and Of which everybody
would have notice. or could have notice,
would enable not only people who are here
in Washington, but those who might think
of coming here to live, to know exactly
what they might have to expect to pay as
