For State Treasurer

Guy U. Hardy proprietor of
the Canon City Record will be !,
candidate for the office of State
Treasurer on the Republican tick
ct and no one has been mentioned
for the office whom we would
rather see occupy that responsible
position or who is better qualified
to fill it than Mr.. Hardy. Mr..
Hardy has always been a faithful
republican. he is Il man of sterling
qualities and his paper has always
been in the fore front fighting Re-
publican battles and if elected he
will give the State strictly up
to-date business administration us
far as the Office of State Treasurer
is concerned.

CIVILSERYICEH HEAD
FAYORS PENSIONS
E. H. Goodwin Says Government
Should Pay Adequate Salaries
and Institute Pension System.

Elliott H Goodwin. secretary of the
Civil Service Reform Association. of New
York, appeared yesterday before the
House Committee IN Reform in the
Civil Service and spoke in favor of a
ment employees.
The proposition is" he said, that the
government should pay its employees ade-
quate salaries. A fair salary does not
mean only enough to subsist on. but
enough to recompense for duty perform
ed and to admit the laying by OF some
thing for the future.
IF this contributory pension system
goes into effect, and If an empIoye
claims that he cannot stand an average
reduction OF 5 and per cent as his con-
tribution. then that is evidence that the
salary being paid is not sufficient. Too
large reductions under the plan will
mean that clerks will leave the service
and new men will refuse to enter"
DO you think a reclassifcation of
salaries should accompany pension leg
islation?" asked Congressman Talcott.
TT certainly should be taken into ac-
count" said Mr.. Goodwin. but reclass-
ifcation is a large and separate ques-
ton"
I'VE cannot indorse the Austin bill,
which proposes a fat. horizontal raise
of Is per cent in connection with a
contributory pension system" asserted
Mr.. Goodwin, who, like some other
speakers, did not favor the Austin plan.
we want salaries adjusted to agree
with the service performed" said Mr..
Goodwin. There are many salary in
equalities in the government service
to-day. For instance. the entrance sal
aries are low, and, on the other hand,
there are employees receiving good sal
aries and practically performing no du-
ties

alton results. in respect 70 land values
in the District of Columbia, are as good
as they are under such poor system.
For Annual Assessments.
my bill provides for annual assess
ments and the increase Of the valuation
of land to the full market value. The
rate OF valuation win be gradually In
creased. and at the same time, viii grad
ually exempt all improvements. The bill
is intended TO encourage improvements
and discourage land speculation. It will
benefit home owners, and cause the own
ers Of valuable land, improved or un-
Improved. TO pay more revenue, into the
District treasury.
Il expect to meet the opposition of
many Of the land SPECTATORS in Wash
ington, but, on the other band believe
II win receive the hearty support In Con-
gress OF a large part Of the member
ship, which has awakened to the fact
that comparatively few men have been
availing themselves OF the assessment
and taxation laws TO exploit the District
of Columbia for their own pockets"

GEORGE TAX BILL
HITS SPECULATION
Author of Measure Says 1t
Will Discourage Land
Sharks in District.
SINGLE TAX THEORY
Son of Famous Economist Would
Apply Fathers Ideas to the Dis
trict-Bill Very Comprehensive.

Providing for annual assessments, a
graduated scale whereby in the next four
years assessments OH unimproved proper
ty shall be increased by about 80 per cent,
and done away with altogether on i'm
provements on real estate and furnishing
a complete new legal machinery for real
estate assessment in the District, the
Henry George, jr., bill was introduced in
the House late yesterday afternoon.
Besides the radical single tax provision.
which The Washington Herald predicted,
as far back as las: June, would be offered
by the New York member, the bill con-
tains many changes from the existing
law which, in the opinion Of Mr.. George.
will stir up a more noticeable interest
in the District than any bill so far in
troduced.
The final provision or section of the
bilI- indicates the extensiveness of the
measure. Section q reads: That all ex-
istlng laws or parts of laws so far as
they relate TO the assessment of real
property for general taxation in the Dis
trict of Columbia, and only so far as
they so relate, are hereby repealed"
Other Important Provisions.
Other provisions Of the bill permit the
Commissioners to increase the rate of
taxation when, in their discretion, such
a move is necessary TO provide the Dis
trict government with required revenues;
increase the number Of deputy assistant
assessors from four to ten, and create

board OF appeals composed OF the Dis
triet assessor an assistant assessor,
designated by the assessor ana
member Of the board of personal tax
appraisers, also DESIGNATED by the as
SCISSOR.
Reterrina to the radical single tax
reform along lines advocated by ms IL
Iustrious father, Mr.. George said yes
terday:
..The hill proyides that the land and
improvements, instead of as hitherto
being assessed at two-thirds OF their
value, shall undergo progressive
changes in respect to their assess
,ments: that in 1918 the land shall be
assessed at eleven -fifteenths, or a tr4he
more than two-thfrds its true value.
and for four years thereafter there
shall be a progressive increase of one
fifteenth until In 1917 and every year
thereafter the land shall be assessed at
ffteen-fifteenths, or its full true VaIue'
Not to Assess improvements.
"on the other hand, in 1918 the i'm
provements on land shall be assessed at
nine-fifteenths of their true value, and
each year thereafter the assessment
shall be decreased progressively by
one-fifteenth. until. in 1917. and each
year thereafter, improvements shall not
be assessed at all.
THAT is, section provides for bring
ing land by progressive stages up 10
full assessments and for abolishing en-
tirely taxation on improvements. The
intention is to encourage improvements
and to discourage land speculation.
: The bill will. an sure, discourage
land speculation. The circumstances
here are different from those existing
in any other part of the country. The
general government pays one-half of
the expenses of the District govern
ment. 1t has, moreover, erected the
most magnificent Government buildings
here and has projected a group along
the Mall that will, when completed,
make the most superb collection Of
marble structures ever erected outside
of ancient Athens and imperial Rome
Excited Active Interest.
These facts have excited a very active
interest in land speculation. Fortunes
have been and are being made merely
by buying and selling land in the Dis
trict of Columbia. The taxation laws
have long fOstered speculation. Personal
property Is assessed annually and at its
full value, but land is assessed only
every third year and then at two-thirds
of its value.
THE tax rate is. on its face. / per cent
that is, IL per cent on a two-thirds
valuation. On the very areas where
home-building booms are about TO de-
velop. the tax rate is much lower. This
is not chargeable TO the assessing author
tiles, but to the very bad system under
which they have had to work. The
miracle is that the assessment and tax
