SAYS REAL ESTATE
TAX IS TOO HIGH
President Davis of Bronx
Chamber of Commerce
Makes Protest.

At the annual meeting of the Bronx
Chamber of Commerce the following
officers we're elected for 1910:
Albert f. Davis, president; John u
Walworth. first ce-president; IL. Ter
aid Chaplin, second vice-president'
Charles Ulman. third vice-president ;
Joseph VI. Taylor, secretary; Joseph T.
Dobbs. treasurer, and Louis +. Stump,
counsellor.
resolution was adopted approving
the proposed consolidation In one ou-
reau Of the functions of all depart
ments now having jurisdiction over
buildings. Charles y. Winston OF
fered a motion, which was adopted
asking the Interborough TO issue trans
fers at the south end or l4Sth st. stars
of the 149th st. AZ station.
MIR. Ullman suggested that all Il
and subway stairs encroaching on the
sidewalks be placed within buildings
They are more of an obstruction 10
street traffic than are stoops and sho"
windows, he said.
Mr.. Davis suggested the need OF new
bridges at Boston Post Road, near the
northerly city line, and across the Haf-
lem River at Morris Heights, and the
need of the prompt construction OF the
subway extension TO Westchester ana
Pelham Bay Park. In taking the chair
he said in part:
eve start at a most suspicious time
in our own borough with progressive
officials and with a comprehensive
transit system under construction
which will open up TO development
every section Of The Bronx. But to
encourage this development we must
have relief from the excessive taxation
of real estate, which unjustly bears 80
per cent Of the cost of our extravagant
city government with its piled up debt
of billion and quarter; and need
less restrictions on building operations
must be abolished.
Optimism is taking the place Of
pessimism; we all believe good times
are coming. and what every one believes
is bound 70 prevail. With the faith
that moves mountains, let US do our
share TO hasten the day"

paid partly from federal funds and
partly from state funds. These patrol
men were employed only in the season
of the year during which danger from
fires might be expected. This period
of employment has averaged approx
mately two months in the spring and
the same amount in the fall. and the
patrolmen have been paid during the
time of their appointment 81 per day
for the time actually spent by them in
work. The duties Of these patrolmen
were to suppress and prevent forest
fires, as far as they could, in the coun-
ties in which they were appointed. and
also by personal contact with the peO-
pie in the county to point out to them
the danger from forest fires in the de-
struction of timber. buildings. fences
and other valuable products, and also
TO emphasize the fact that a large per
cent of the forest fires which occur
red were due to causes which could
have been eliminated with care on the
part of the individuals. The work of
the county wardens has been inspected
once in three weeks, as nearly as pos
sible, by the district wardens. and the
whole work has been inspected by the
United States forest service. The dan
ger season for forest fires ordinarily is
for period of three months in the
spring, Feb. II to May 10. and for
Il period of three months in the fall,
Sept. 10 to Dec. 10, but the patrolmen
were only under appointment and paid
for the actual time during which fires
might be expected because of the eli
matte conditions existing mt the time.
1t was soon evident that, while the
county patrolmen were accomplishing
considerable amount of effective
work, nevertheless even one patrolman
in each county where there was large
amount of timber would not secure the
necessary amount of forest protection.
Consequently the next step was to Sc
cure the cooperation of the timber
land owners by organizing associations.
since II was felt that only in the event
that timberland owners became finan-
cially interested in the matter of for
est protection of their own lands and
supplemented the funds of the state by
funds of their own to be expended in
forest protective measures could per-
manent good be accomplished in this
direction.
Under this plan the first county in
the state TO be organized was Harlan
county. and the success Of the Forest
Protective association in this county
has been so remarkable and its growth
aud effectiveness so continuous that II

Kentucky forests play big part in
the industrial life of the state, and not

produce, which, according to the last
figures of the census available. was

it is Of interest to point out the direc-
ton in which the forests of the state
are of vital importance to various in
terests. The capital invested in log

1910 was $21 1891 900 and the average

over 100000 crossties were pur-

In 1914. Another great industry which

products. is the mining industry. espe-
cially the coal mining industry, and it
is for this reason that in the coal min
ing regions of the eastern part of the
state the state forester has met with
the heartiest cooperation in an endeav-
or to suppress the forest fires.
The timber used in the mines is in
the form of tagging, stulls, props, ties
and lumber for the construction of
buildings of various sorts. 1t is fig
ured that from three to four feet, board

among the states in the production OF

Under the caption of "The Re-

ington Herald contains the fol-
lowing editorial;
''The grand jury in Clark
County, to which was delivered
a most impressive and startling
charge by Judge Benton, has re-
turned indictments against two
men for bribery, and against two
for false swearing and two for
betting on the election. We are
confident from the personnel of
the grand jury that as thorough
an investigation was made and as
decisive results were obtained as
were possible. Yet it seems
rather as if the mountain had
labored and brought forth but a
mouse. In spite of the fact that
the grand jury stated, we be-

REGARD FOR THE LAW.

be removed rather than the mutila
tion of the member.
Our Tax Laws are distasteful and
detrimental, but the remedy should be
to amend them instead of allowing
them to undermine the morals OF the
people by openly disregarding them.
The successful evasion of one Law
may encourage the violation of others
and in time breed a contempt for all
Laws.
While every citizen owes obedience
TO the Laws, the Laws should be made
fair and equal to every citizen.
The Tax Laws are neither fair nor
equal and are productive Of deceit and
dishonor and II for no other reason
than this should be changed.
