WOULD MERGE ALL
TAX COLLECTIONS
License Collector c. L. Whit
ney Proposes Plan to Sim
pIify Present Methods.
NEW ORDINANCE DRAWN
Places All License Depart
ments Under One General
and Independent Head.

Merging of all city departments that
.ollect license taxes into one depart
ment is proposed by c. L. Whitney, IL
cense collector, in Il communication sub
mi tied to Richard P. Morris, street com
missioner. yesterday. Amendments to
the present ordinances bearing on the
collection of license and new ordi-
nance creating the separate department
OF license tax, have been drafted by the
city attorney and were submitted along
with the letter outlining tho proposed
innovation.
Mr.. Whitney is confident that not
only can a saving of more than $1,000
a year be effected in this manner in
the cost of collecting license tax, but
the amount of tax collected can be
greatly increased.

Separate Department.

Under the present ordinance tho city
auditor is the assessor of license taxes
and the operation of the department
comes under his supervision so far as
pertains to merchants tax, liquor tax
and all the miscellaneous licenses taxes
now imposed. The polltax department
is q separate adjunct, coming under the
department of streets, Dog licenses arc
collected in separate department, the
work being done by contract and some
what independently Of the city,
Mr.. Whitney would have all these de-
partments merged under one head with
n license assessor and collector appoint"
I'd by the commission and free to con-
duct his department independently OF
The auditor g Office.
majority of the members of the
commission are said to have expressed
themselves in favor of the plan and it
is expected that the step Will be taken
and the new department created before
The first Of the year.
The present contract for the collec-
;ion OF the dog tax does not expire un~
Ill next April, but that department
could be merged with the main license
department at that time.
Cost Of Operation.
Under the present system it costs the
polltax department approx mately $4,000
to collect from Sl5, 700 to $4,000 n year.
1t costs the general license department,
with Mr.. Whitney in charge, about
$500 to collect about S350,000 license a
year. The total cost of the two de-
partments for 1913 will be about S12,-
200. The cost under Mr., Whitney's
system would total about sl1 900. This
saving, however, would be insignificant
as compared TO the increased efficiency
and consequent greater revenue from
the license taxes, it is argued.
Mr.. Whitney would have the head Of
the license department paid S2400 a
year, the same salary that other depart
ment heads receive.
During the first ten months Of 1918,
ending October 81, Mr.. Whitney has col
iected a total of $343,3 ,3Ss.50 whereas
the highest amount ever collected by
his department in any previous year for
the entire twelve months was $780,
j331 in 1911.
The proposal made by Mr.. Whitney is
along the line that several special audi
tors have recommended to the city coun-
I'll and the city commission in past
wears after auditing the city books.
