LETTERS TO EDITOR
Moving Toward Single Tax

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
I am reading with keen interest the
account given in your issue of today
(Juy 2Oth) of the recent tax reform in
the city of Pittsburg. At the risk of be-
ing regarded as an enthusiast. I venture
to predict that the good results promised
by the civic commission of Pittsburg will
accrue in due time; and that the applica-
ton OF the "single tax" in a modified
form will justify itself to the full.
For those of us who have long men,
or:es It is amusing to recall the scorn and
derision that greeted the single tax agi-
tation when it made it's first appearance
in the arena of political discussion The
confiscation OF land values was held to
be contrary to common sense, repugnant
to revealed religion and false to the sacred
traditions of our fathers. Yet, in spite
of all. the special tax on land values is
still with us. And Mr.. Burns account,
Instructive as it is. does not tell the whole
story. The "differential' tax on land
has not been solely confined to municipali-
ties. i have read that two Canadian
provinces in the far west have adopted
it; certainly the German empire in its
federal capacity has levied an t'unearned
Increment tax.
Finally I cannot allow Mr.. Burns state
ment that Pittsburg and Scranton are
the first in the field to pass without
question. An editorial of the Mobile Reg
tster dated four months ago describes
the TAX system of Houston, Tex. Ac-
cording to the Register, Houston inn
poses rate of 20 per cent on land and
only 25 per cent on improvements. This
is. of course. the rate of assessment and
indicates a discrimination against land
quite as heavy that which obtains in
Pittsburg. Moreover. Houston sets a.
shining example to her sister cities by
the total exemption of personal property.
as well as every ordinary business or oc-
cupation.
We of the south are not always so un-
progressive as we seem. Yours very truly,

were loaded and unloaded. including the
wounded after the battle on May 16,
