How STATE School Tax Law worke


iii biz annual report al superintendent

Wheeler calls attention Ia the way III
which the larger towns and cities are
being BLEED for the benefit Of other parts
Of the state. In 1905 the city Of Bur
lington received as interest on the
United States deposit fund the sum of
s2,IT7.5s and AZ interest on the Hunt
ingt0n fund the sum Of SBs7.l4, q total
81 81 ,s64s72. Ely the consolidation Of
these funds and legislation relating to
thefn at the last session 81 the lsgis.
latlsre the amount received by Bgrlug.
ION In 1907 from the state public school
fund was only SS009I. or sa063 ST less
than tie city has been accustomed to re-
ceiYe from the funds controlled BY the
state. This loss falls upon the city and
neeessitatas an increased appropriation
equal 70 the loss
In this connection Superintendent
" heeler says it Il interesting to note
the effect of the state legislation upon
burlington III respect to tie state school
tax. Burlington paid as state school tax
ii 1907 s1i.802.90 and received 1851.
~ thus contributing ss,74091 for
school purposes outside Of itself and Id
other parts 81 the state.
Mr. Wheeler continues Without
pFesnming 10 question OF to discuss the
rrupriety II such legislation. indicating
Z settled policy Oh the part 81 the state,
II may be proper to suggest that 1t
would seem al II there should be a limit
to the extent to which the larger towns
and cities can be properly mulcted fof
