DEAR SIRs:--
Regarding the matter Of roads
snd the proposed large bond issue for
building them: 1t does seem to me
that in view Of the large sum of money
expended by the State for the building
of roads ia this county, and another
considerable sum to be appropriated for
the completion of State Road System
here, that after ayailing ours yes OF
the $40 900 year, due us from State
Fund under the Shoemaker Law, by the
raising of a like sum by the County,
which amount for the present. tn be
used for che building Of a permanent
road in the southwestern section Tia
Plata to Rivsrside) this being the Sec
ton of the County that is not tapped
By State road or proposed State road.
that cur people and our Legislators
who repr, sent them In Annapolis,
shold go little slowly in bonding the
County for the large sum Of $l00, 600,
for other roads, where the County has
to pay the entire cost for maintenance.
OF the roads already built by the
State, our people have had to paw a
relatively small portion compared TO
the amount of benefit derived; the rich
er parts OF the Safe paying the major
portion ioa The building and apkeep Of
these roads Our State tax rate for the
past SIX years aas been steadily increas-
ing, and will probsbly increase some
what further il the next few years; but
out of this increase harles county has
receiv ed most gener GUS share of the
money appropriated by the State
Should the ad ii'ional s100, 900 bond
issue be authorized, our County tax
rate must necessarily be increased con-
siderably, and remain nigh for good
period of years And out Of the money
by the floating Of these bonds,
but small p. rtion (about one tenth
of the remaining County roads, could
be built, budding a road of a perma-
nent character as proposed, and main
tanning 1t as road If this kind should
be maintained .fter it is built.
Our County is not rich one by any
means, and any considerable liner ase
IN taxation would be very much felt by
the taxpayer, at this time.
1t would seem that our aim should be
co keep the tax rate down as much as
p 'ssibie, without erippling the progress
of our ountyi otherwise the result
might be- 70 discourage too m any Of our
very worthy citizens OF limited means
who are looking TO theirs and the Coun-
tvs future. Very respectfully yours, :.
