of the Term.

PRINCETON, y. j., October 1i.-Pop-
ular use Of the term high brow" to
express scorn of intellectual things is
condemned by President John q. Hib-
ben of Princeton University. This term
is not used merely to express contempt
for pedantry or intellectual pharisaism,
said Dr. Hibben in his address to the
students at the opening of the univer-
sity Yesterday IF this were the case,
he added, II would not quarrel with
those who might thus use it. This term
is generally employed as a weapon of
emasculated minds which are content

Figures Given in Report.

The report shows that the total as
sessed valuation of real estate in the
District for the fiscal year that ended
June 30. last was 1891, ,209,9 ,904, of which
s207,173.905 was the assessment on land
improvements.
The total assessed valuation of real
estate for the previous fiscal year was
S390,09S,S4S.
The total personal tax levy for the
fiscal year 1916 amounted to $1,31S, ,34212
and the assessed valuation of tangible
personal property i'll the District for the
same period amounted to S3S.O42.o00.
Out of 1888 personal tax accounts there
are .-60S who pay a tax OF less than 50,
it is stated: 14l who pay a tax of 500
Or over, leaving 9,849 whose tax is be-
tween IS and 500.
The report recommends annual regis
tration of automobiles and motor cycles
the payment Of an annual fee based on
the value and horsepower Of the ma
chine, and the abolition OF the personal
tax against all vehicles so registered.
Such law. it is contended. would tend
to equalize assessments on automobiles
and would enable the office to keep bet
ter track of ownership.
Water Main Assessments.
other facts developed by the report
are that during the year assessments
for water mains We're levied in the
amount of s4698S2S and that 1888
miscellaneous licenses. amounting to
s112, ,083.34. a slight increase over the
previous year. We're issued.
The report also throws a Sidelight on
the District budget now being framed
by the Commissioners. 1t states that
the estimated amount of District revenue
for the fiscal year to end June so. 1918,
is SS,914367. This means that the Com
missioners i'll providing Tor the needs
OF the municipality for the fiscal year
that begins next July may estimate up
to this amount and an equal sum to
be provided by Congress under the half
;.nd-half act. In other words. the budg-
ct may carry a total OF nearly S1S.-
600, 900 although it is not considered
probable that the Commissioners will
estimate up TO the full amount avail
able.
