Reapportionment To BE Made More
Equitable-Ash Street Sewer
Ordinance Passed.

At an adjourned meeting of the city
council held last Friday night, the
council decided to amend the occu-
patton tax now in force in Dallas.
Several lines of business not now in
cluded will be added to the list and
an effort will be made to reapportion
the amounts more in accordance
with the extent of the earning capac-
ity of the firms, so that the merchant
doing a small business will not have
to pay the same as the larger ones.
The ordinance authorizing the con-
struction of the Ash street sewer was
passed and the plans of Engineer F..
Fl. Morrison therefor were accepted.
