EXPERT DISCUSSES
MORTGAGE TAXATION

A tax on mortgages, being a special
tax upon one form of Investment, is an
indirect tax, and the result of a release
of mortgages from taxation will be
lowering in the rate of interest on
loanable capital. The man who buys
property on credit Clet us assume for
purpose OF illustration the case of
farm purchased with borrowed money!
has no reason to complain If the
capital which he borpows is not taxed
to the holder Of the instruments that
represent the loan. 1t is true his prop.
erty will be assessed to it's full value
regardless of the debt resting upon it.
but the first effect OF such an adjust.
ment will be to reduce the price he
must pay for his land that is to say,
the tax results in depressing the value
OF land by an amount equal to its
capitalization The second effect is
that he will be obliged to pay less for
the money borrowed with which to
purchase the land. 1t is doubtless true
that up to a certain point these two
tendencies will counteract each other,
for the lower the rate of interest the
higher will be the valuation of land.
But the balance will most certainly be
to the advantage OF the man who de-
sires TO buy land with borrowed
capital; for the rate which fixes the
price of land is the commercial or in
dustriai rate, while the rate tnat must
be paid fer the money borrowed is the
current rate on loanable capital. Not
only is that latter lower in itself than
the market rate on industrial capital,
but it will be yet further depressed by
the exemption o. su2h capital from
taxation Ii is lack of confidence in
commercial laws by which values are
determined and to whicr ntracts are
adjusted that incites TO a constant ef-
fort on the part Of legislators to lay
hold of loanable capital for the pur-
pose OF taxation Experience shows
this to be impossible and analysis
shows it to be unnecessary. There is
no reason in the nature Of the case,
due allowance being made for the
peculiar industrial qualities Of govern
ment bonds, why thc farmer should
pay more for money &lan the govern
ment The farmers true interest lies
in removing every element of un-
certainty that surrounds a loan, and
one Of these is the threat OF the Law
that mortgages should be taxed -

Economy in the University Of Michi-
gan and Statistician for Interstate

PERSONAL PROPERTY
Complaint Because it Does Not Pay
It's Share OF Taxes.

It's Share OF Taxes.
There mas been much complaint of
late because personal property, es-
pecially intangible property, does not
pay its fair share OF public taxes, 1t
is said the homes OF working men pay
more in proportion to value than any
other kind Of property. The criticism
is not confined TO any section of the
country The conditions that existed
soon after the century commenced
were in some respects unprecedented.
1t is doubtful ii there was ever a
time in the history of this nation
when the rate CT interest on tbs best
securities was so low as at that time.
This commonwealth could borrow
money at the rate Of about two per
cent and the price OF unquestioned Sc
curites was so high that they yielded
the investor but little more than three
per cent on his investment. In such
cases the payment OF tax OF $40 On
81 900, which is but little above the
average rate of late in this city, would
reduce the net income on such invest
not strange that those conservative
capitalists who never take risks by in
yesting in securities that are not gilt
edged forgot to inform the assessors
OF the amount of their holdings and
the practice of concealing intangible
property became very popular and is
likely to continue so. The rates vi in
terest have advanced within the last
three years and the last legislature
deemed it wise 10 exempt from tax
alton the bonds OF the state issued
after Jan. /, 1906, thus following the
precedent established BY the United
States soon after the commencement
OF the civil war Of eXempting govern
ment bonds from state, county and
municipal taxation
Some complaint has been made by
real estate owners because the rate OF
taxation OF savings bank deposits Is
60 Low, but it is doubtful ii the public
realizes as much in proportion from
the taxation of intangible property
held By private investors as from the
tax on savings bank deposits.
The laws Of the commonwealth, as
interpreted by the supreme court in
recent decisions, make it easy for
citizen TO claim a residence where he
SPENDS very little Of his time, and
capitalists naturally seek those mu-
inequalities where the lowest tax rates
prevail and where assessors are most
obliging,
Assessors are aware that II they
resort to extreme measures there will
be changes in the legal residence Of
some tax payers and a consequent
shrinkage in the valuation list. There
is undoubtedly much undeseryed criti-
eism bestowed on this class OF public
officers by people who do not appreci-
ate the difficulties in the way OF strict
ly equitable taxation -Fftchour5

hung suspended over the fireplace.
Max was very pale.
