GERMAN MUNICIPAL CONTROL.
How the Local Government of tho
Large Towns Is Managed.

Large Towns Is Managed.
G. ]. n. Rogers Of the local govern
ment board in London has issued spe-
cial article on local government In Ger
many, compiled with exhaustive full
ness, says the New York Herald. The
following extract states the attitude
Of Germany toward the much-vexed
problem Of municipal trading:
I'm most of the large towns the gas,
water, markets and electricity under
takings are owned ana managed by the
local authorities. AS regards tram
ways, German towns are not quite so
advanced as towns in England, but it
Is the evident intention Of the COM
munal bodies generally to obtain pos
session Of that important means Of
communication whenever the oppOrtun-
ity offers. In addition to the under
takings mentioned, all towns of any
size have their own savings banks, and
most of them carry on the business Of
pawnbrokers. A large majority, too,
possess municipal theaters and concert
halls. A few own quarries one (Gor-
litZ) engages in the manufacture of
bricks and tiles. owns coal mine. and
manufactures artificial stone. In con-
nection with the ownership of COM
munal forests, several towns deal in
timber for building purposes. and the
supply of fuel Harbors, docks, quays
and wharves are also owned by various
towns"
In the opinion of many of its oppo-
nents municipal trading should not be
conducted with a view to profits. In
Prussia this question is settled by the
law. Section of the communal taxa
ton law provides that Commercial un-
dertakings of the communes shall be
administered upon the principle that
the income raised shall suffice at least
to meet the whole of the expenditure
arising from the communal undertake
ing, inclusive of interest and reduction
Of the invested capital. An exception
is admissible so far as the undertaking
serves at the same time public need
which is not otherwise met" The lat
ter part of the provision refers to wa
terworks, markets and similar under
takings, but these concerns are, as a
general rule, to be so managed that no
loss shall fall on the local taxes.
