Some Figures Showing Relative
Finances.
Despite Big Increase in Revenue, a
Deficit is Re-
ported.
NEED A LOOK AT THE BOOK

Frankfort, Ky, Oot 16.-When
Gov. Beckham in his speeches, makes
the claim that no State in the Union
can make q better financial showing
than Kentucky, and that the State is
virtually being run ON tax rate of
Az, cents. he omits the fact that the
increase in the value of assessed prop
erty, effected by his board of Equsli-
cation, takes money from the tax
payers Just as would higher tax rate.
The figures show that this increase
in the value OF assessed property pro-
vides the State with q revenue Of
1918, 423, which it did not enjoy
under Republican rule. The revenue
act of 1909, which imposes special
license taxes ON articles and occupa-
tions therefore exempt from license
has added another sio4, 1861 81 paid
