The latest step in the science Of
surgery is the removal of pieces Of
shrapnel, steel jacketed bullets and
other metal substances by the use Of
powerful electromagnetic in the hos

DC. Now Unmistakably overassesse

II is absurd to imagine that the taxed
fraction of Washington is underas-
sessed when its real property is rated
i'll the actual assessment as worth
s13.692,197 >more and ON the 100 per
cent basis as worth s73.31O,010 more
than that of the whole of Detroit, with
it's great industrial establishments and
its population 1G0.669 larger than that
of the District.
There are 342,776 Washingtonians,
one-thrd of them colored people, the
vast majority of them employed or
very small employers, with IL compare
tive lack of extensive and costly in
dustrial plants, with a minimum of
even minor millionaires and a maxi
mum of clerks. workingmen and small
tradesmen and transient non-taXpay-
ers. These 342,77S Washingtonans are
credited with owning over $4,000, 900
more of taxable real estate than the
5O3,445 people (160,669 more than in
Washington) who own the whole of the
city of Detroit. Does any one in the
world believe this to be a fact?
Is it to be believed that the taxed
fraction of non-indUstrial Washington
is underassessed when it is SHOWN to
be worth in terms of taxation assess
ment, on the same basis of 100 per cent,
over seventy millions more than all of
Buffalo, with population 9S,S9O
greater. and with it's grain elevators.
its mills, its steel plant. its lake com
merce, its manifold manufactures and
its retail business establishments?
Is the taxed fraction of Washington
underassessed when it. is valued ton
the 100 per cent basis) as worth $122,.
S32,22 more than the whole of wealthy,
prosperous, busy, industrial Baltimore,
with 226,7s4 greater population? And
on the 100 per cent basis s120,41S.05O
more than Cincinnati and $167.795, ,T4O
more than the whole of Minneapolis?
In per capita assessment valuation
of total property values, real and per-
sonal. Washington has a higher per
capita figure than 155 of the 1874 Ameri-
can cities in 1912 and a less per capita
than only thirty-nine of those cities.
Since 1912 the assessment of Wash
ington real estate has been pushed
from $50 to $50 millions, representing
as an assessment on the two-thirds
basis $40 millions of taxable realty.
The trosSness of the overassessment
uf Washington realty as compared with
that of other cities in 1871: is thus ac-
centuatcd.

GASOLINE FEE ABOLISHED.
Private Garage Owners Will Here
after Escape Cost of Annual License.

Washington automobilists in the fu-
ture will escape the payment of an
nual license fees for the storage of
gasoline in private garages.
Corporation Counsel Conrad II. Syme
has ruled that there is no law specifi-
caIly imposing such a tax and the
Commissioners have approved the de-
cision.
The tax amounts to S5 Il year OF
the 4l9 licenses for the storage of gas
oline issued last year, 800 were issued
to owners of private garages. it is
stated. The decision to abolish the
tax means a reduction in the Districts s
revenues amounting to about $1,000 a
year.
Action in the matter was the out
growth of u protest made by James T
Gibbs, who declared that he did not
believe the law of February 9, 1906,
under which the fee has been col
lected applicable to owners of private
garages.
