taxes be levied only upon land and
lots.
Would BE Levied 40 Now
ne state, township and county
taxes would be levied on all property
as now. But the money required for
running the city government and city
schools would be raised on lands and
lots within the corporation limits
alone.
The tax rate for Richmond (gen-
eral) is now $1.1O on the 500 and the
city school tax rate is IS cents on the
500.
County Auditor Bowman estimated
today that lands and lots in Richmond
are assessed at about fifty per cent. OF
their actual values.
The plan suggested by Mr.. White
would result in the increased valua-
ton Of land and lots and a slight In
crease In the tax rate.
He would make 1t optional for cities
to adopt his plan.
Mr.. White explained that by shift

Whites Theory of Taxation Would Lead
People to Improve Their Vacant Lots

couraged and factories would And it
profitable to locate in the city.
"Cities will prosper in proportion as
they shift the burden of taxation from
personal property and improvements
to land" said Mr.. White.
Mr.. White attacked the inconsistent
cies Of the present system of taxation
as one that placed premium upon
rascality and stifled industrial devel-
opment. The main reason for this as
the speaker views 1t is that the burden
of tax was sought to be laid upon
personal property and improvements
instead of upon land. He proved from
the experience Of many American ana
Canadian cities where the burden OF
tax had been shifted to land that re-
markable growth had been shown over
those cities which continued to levy
most Of the cost Of municipal govern
ment upon personal property and I'M
provements.
Pleads for Home Rule.
Mr.. White made a plea for home
rule for cities so that each city might
meet it's own problems in its own way.
He called attention to the constitu-
tional convention to be held In Indiana
next year and urged that advantage be
taken Of the opportunity to make it
possible for cities to control their
own tax problems.
Until this is done the speaker sug-
gested that the tax laws of Indiana
were so loosely drawn that much re-
lief might be obtained through arbi-
trary administration Of the law by the
local assessors. This he said was be-
ing done In Portland, Ore, In New
York city and Houston. Tex, where
land was made to bear from sixty to
seventy-five per cent OF the tax Dur
