THE RECORD PROGRESSIVE TAX PROPOSITION.

TIT AVING forced his singetax doctrine upon the Progressive
I6l Republican platform adopted in Newark last week, state
Assessor Record says now that it is 1.-THE most important

Record does not propose, either, to see the doctrine embalmed. he

False notions of taxation have been carefully developed in the
popular mind for generations, in order that the mass of the people
That statement is true enough. The generality of people do not
much involved and not edifying except to the student and specialist.
The State assessor would do the tax problem thinking for the null
titude. He has read Progress and Poverty and imbibed the prin-
ciple taught by Henry George. The panaeea for all the ills of
property taxation, he holds, is a single tax on land. AS Record
truly says. this is a most important proposition in a State where
land has been indistinguishable from other property in taxation.
The great majority of the voters of the State are not landowners,
while thousands who own pieces of land also possess realestate
improvements and personal property of a value greatly in excess of
their land. These voters might find the Record tax program at
tractive. Financial institutions which have little else but personal
estate for taxation would be benefited by single tax, for they would
have no tax bills. With single tax we would have to dispense with
the taxes on corporate charters and the capital and receipts of
corporations. That would wipe out about $25O0,000 of miscel-
laneous corporation tax, 81, 1000 of municipal franchise tax and
about 81 100000 of personal and franchise tax of the railroads. To

for investment. How would suburban places grow under the shadow
of such Il land tax? And, finally, how could New Jersey maintain
such a system Of taxation with all the surrounding States taxing
buildings and personal property as we'll as land?

of F~reeholders in refusing permission
to the Shade Tree Commission to erect
seats on the Court House steps to be

The people who paid for the build

afford and they certainly should not
be deprived of hat privilege by the
erection of seats for a comparatively
few invited guests.

Letter Hit tho Mark.
tor of the Evening Star:

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The residents of Pointer street owe
you a vote of thanks for publishing
the letter ! wrote to you a few weeks
ago complaining of the street signs.
My letter told of the lack of street
signs and the misleading sign on a
row of houses. The houses in question
are located on the north side of Pointer
street and Elizabeth avenue and were
labeled fremont Row" This sign
looked like the ordinary street sign
and strangers were satisfied hat Tire
mont Row was the name of the street
instead of Pointer, as it should be.
Not only has the Objectionable sign
been removed, but new sign posts with
the names of the streets attached have
been placed on Elizabeth avenue re-
Gently. This does away with an incon-
venience which existed for years, and
until my letter appeared in the Eve
ming STAR the many appeals of the
residents had been unsuccessful in hav-
ing the matter adjusted.

Let us first consider the case when
the Head line and the Life line are

union is only at the very start. the two

the point of the beginning, and sepa-

striking out for himself mentally al
most as soon as the light of reason
was kindled.
If the lines continue running together
for a little distance, the independence
of thought is shown not to have begun
until the age indicated by the point Of
separation. The precise period must
be computed from the Head line, ao-
cording to the rules set forth In the
section on age.
The point of separation of the two
lines produces an angle which Is moro
or less acute. The more acute the
angle, the more sensitive does Il show
the person to be. If the angle fS OBJ
fuse, the person will be corresponding

And If the angle is very obtuse and
the fingers are thick and spatulate or
square tipped. the mind will be Of

sCHooLHoUsEs AS CIVIC CENTRES.

school buildings are coming to be used as civic centres,
S as well as places of instruction for children For many
years they stood unoccupied and unused except in school
hours. representing an immense waste of public assets. Grad
ually. in spite of the crustacean opposition of those who obstinately
adhere to the traditions of their grandfathers, innovations were
adopted. Free lectures were given, and even social entertainments,
and finally schoolyards were turned into summer Fairgrounds. The
Jersey City Board of Education has now decided to open school
buildings for neighborhood dances during the summer season and
to use the roof as a garden for mothers and their little ones. The
plan is in operation in many public schools in New York city, and
is highly successful there. Every public schoolhouse should be
utilized as a civic centre and made full use of for the welfare of the
neighborhoods in which they are established.
