HEARING ON REPEAL
OF ExEMPTING REAL
ESTATE MORTGAGES

Senator Burlegh OF Aroostook was the
only man TO appear before the committee
on taxation Tuesday afternoon favoring
the repeal of tine law passed four years
ago which exempts real estate mortgages
from taxation, There was widespread
opposition to any change in the existing
law. however, particularly by speakers
from Portland and Bangor. II was
charged that Houlton was practically the
only town in the State where a dislike
for the present statute existed.
Senator Burleigh opened the hearing by
saying the loss of taxes on mortgages
had cost Aroostook county around $1,000
or $4,000. He denied it had resulted in
the borrowers getting their money at a
lower rate of interest and said the
Aroostook register OF deeds had told him
the rate was slightly higher now than
before the exemption law was passed.
The law was no relief to borrowers, he
said.
Then those who opposed the repeal Of
the present statute unlimbered their guns.
James Fox ESQ.,, of Portland favored the
exemption and said the tax on mort
cages had always been paid by the bor-
rover. Samuel Rosenberg, a Portland
real estate dealer, said that II a tax were
again placed on mortgages it would stop
building by Jewish people in his city be-
cause higher rates would be charged poor
people who wished 10 borrow.
The principal speeches in opposition
were made by Hon. J. P. Bass, former
State Senator Taber D. Bailey and P. H.
Gillin, Esq. Of Bangor.

Henry Van Dyke, the American min
