CLOSING SALOON WOULD

Loss viii Be $780, ooo-Tax Can
ceations Increase.

The certainty that a number of De-
trot saloons will be forced out OF
business by the new liquor law is al
ready causing city officials TO figure
just what the effect upon the city
treasury will be, If a few saloons go,
the effect will be ncglible but the
wiping out of 500 il the extreme
claims OF the committee OF one hun
dred are indorsed by the courts.
would be a different thing
The city now gets half OF the liquor
license fee. or $3.50 for each saloon.
Wiping ont 500 saloons would mean
loss i'm revenue TO the city OF $780,
900 or about three per cent Of the
present tax levy
The saloon license money goes TO
support the poor commission and
health board funds entirely. aud the
police department fund in part. The
surplus goes to the city's deficiency
fund which replaces the delinquent
and uncollectable taxes The deiici-
ency fund Is not in thriving condi-
ton just al the present time.
More taxes have been Cancelled
since July ! by the council than were
eyer Cancelled before in such a space
ot time From July /. 1909. TO Feb.
Is. 1910. the council Cancelled $40

rect This is total OF Sl5,6S004 OF
taxes rcmitted representing an as
sessed valuation of nearly $S5O000.
From July /. 1905, TO July !, 1909.
the council RENTED S9l6ll4 of 1908
taxes. COMPARING this with the can

wear. II can be seen that in less than
two-thirds of the time. the council has
this year Cancelled much more of the
previous Years taxes than was done
for the whole OF the last year with
the 1908 taxes.
In addition 10 the cancellations, the
treasurer's Office has lately had
charged of more than $4,000 of de-
linouent personal taxes as uncollect-
