The Consumer and the Water Rates.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
| have not noticed an important
phase of the Increased water rate
referred to in the public prints and one
that may properly be considered 1t is
that tine burden of installation Of meters
will fall directly on the tenant and not
on the owner IL the method for
meeting the expense proposed by the
Commissioners g carried out The ma
jority of tenants are people of small
means, and such tax would be serious
~ fe-t by them. / do not think that it
can be successfully disputed that wher-
ever meters have been installed it has
BEEN found that in the aggregate very
much less wafer has been consumed by
these smaller beneficlaries than the regu-
lations have designated the mir. mum al
lowance. As. an illustration, It may be
pertinent to cite the tenant of a house on
a rental of, say, SIS per month, and en-
1oying the benefits of hydrant in the
back yard, or, to be within limits, the
most inexpensive plumbing In his small
house that is possible. For this he is to
pay the same rate for water that a ten
room house calls for, and with perhaps
two or three we'll equipped bathrooms, etc.
And provided that the installation of
meters be made a direct charge against
the individual p zee of property, at a
liked and uniform price, and regardless
OF real or assessed values, IL would con-
stitute an unequal and therefore un-
JUS taxat on. 1t will be discrimination
( in favor of the prosperous and to the dis
advantage OF the poorer property owner,
and for that reason, If no other appears.
the expense for the installation should
be prov ded for by congressional appro-
priation. But this sugg estion is advanced
in the face OF the fact that already
other public conveniences and necessities.
such as water mains. sewer ppes and
sidewalks, are laid upon assessments
upon AUDITING property per front foot
and regardless of the actual worth of
the property or assessed valuation, nor
graduated by any manifest or supposed
benefits enjoyed. so that property. no
matter how insignificant, may have to
Ray a larger amount for these improve
ments than assessed against properties
worth ten times. and even five Thousand
times. as much for the same class Of I'm
provements along their fronts and en-
joying therefrom benefits so large IN
proportion they cannot be estimated.
While a congressional appropriation
would even this matter of expense for
installing the meters, it would also give
the general government a chance to pay
for the water used In the public build.
