TERMS OF THE BILL

The. bill provides that the rate OF
taxation upon property within the
territory to be added 10 the city
shall begin. for the year 1919 at
% per cent. OF the full city rate and
increase z per cent. of the full city
in 1899
1t gives to the new territory 90
years before il becomes subject TO
the tuil city rate. beginning with
rate which is lower than the present
rate In the district proposed to he
annexed from Anne Arundel county
ana about the same as the present
rate IN that portion of Baltimore
county proposed to be brought into
the city. The present Baltimore
county rate Is s1.O6 with an addition
OF ~ cents road tax i'm part of the
territory and 20 cents in another
part. Thus part of this territory is
nov, now paying N.l6 and part of ii S1.26.
ne present rate In the portion of
Anne Arundel county TO be annexed
IS M.ao The present full city rate
Is Sl.9S. So that. If the full city rate
should be the same for 1919, the tax
rate IN the new te itory for 1919
would be Nls. and manufacturing
industries would pay much less than
they now pay because all of their
personal property would he exempt.
whereas, those in Baltimore county
nave no exemption and those in
Anne Arundel county have only an
exemption OF their plants.
Al the Legislature of 1916 the Dele
gates from Anne Arundel county
tried to get the law granting this
exemption repealed
Considering the additional benefits
OF city government. in the shane OF
better health protection better
school facilities. the orderly and
systematic development of property
and waterfront, the benefit of the
citys uttered water supply and of
connection with the city's seweraee
system. and adequate police and FIRE
protection. the tax rate proposed in
the League bill is most reasonable
and FAR less than that paid for the
Dement'S OF city government by other

PROTECTION PROVIDED IN
THE BILL FOR ALL EX-
listing INDUSTRIES

All kinds OF legitimate business
now being conducted in the terri
tory proposed TO be added To the city
are fully protected by the provisions
in Section 10 of the League bill: ,
That no ordinance of the Mayor
and City Council of Baltimore exist
ing prior TO the passage of this act.
prohibiting the maintenance of stock
yards. ahattoirs packing plants or
other plants for the handling of
livestock and livestock products. or
fertilizer or acid works or SOAP fac
tories or rendering plants: or pro-
hibiting the keeping or driving of
livestock or the keeping of fowls, or
prohibiting or regulating manufac-
turing or other Industrial works or
business existing. and as conducted.
prior TO. and at the time of the pas
sage of this act. shah apply TO any
portion of the territory annexed By
this act TO Baltimore city, but moth
ing herein contained shall be con-
strued to affect the power of the
Mayor and City Council of Baltimore
60 pass ordinances under the police
power. or any other power in the
charter. affecting the territory and
the inhabitants thereof annexed by
this act to Baltimore city. to the
same extent as they may pass such
ordinances affecting the territory and
the inhabitants of Baltimore city
as IL existed prior to the passage
of this act.
And common sense teaches that
If the city. in order to encourage
manufacturing is willing TO make
the sacrifice Of taking from the tax
books all personal property used In
manufacturing. IL certainly will not
unnecessarily do anything to dis
courage any legitimate industry.

YOUNGSTERS BACKWARD
In ENTERING TOURNEY
District Title Events in Singles and
Doubles Need Competitors.

Junior and boy tennis players are
somewhat backward in sending in en-
tries for the annual District tourna-
ment scheduled to start next Mon
day afternoon on the Princeton Club
courts, Otis and warder streets north
west
Louis I. Doyle, in charge Of the
affair, says he has had several en-
tries, but as yet has failed TO get the
bulk of entries received at this time
last year.
The boys from the high schools
and prep schools have so far failed
10 send in their entries in bulk. In
the next day or so a number OF scho-
lastic entries are expected.
The tournament Is divided into two
sections this year. There will be
competition for boys under nineteen
years of age in sin giles and doubles.
Boys under sixteen will also have a
crack at the boys championship in
singles and doubles.
Prizes have been offered in each
event The tournament was won by
Harold Selden last year. Dudley and
Cissell won the doubles tournament,

CANOETSTS CAUTIONED
TO use PROPER LIGHT
Lanterns, Not Searchlights, Re-
quired for Frail Craft.

Now that canoeing is in full sway.
these closely connected with the river
front are DESTROYS OF keeping promI-
nentIy before the paddler the rules and
regulations which govern the popular
pastime.
With hundreds roaming over the up
per waters Of the Potomac, after dusk
and many late into the night. the law
governing the lighting of canoes is re-
garded as especially important
Many paddIers. a majority of them
new TO tn esport. are ignorant OF the law
which requires that a lighted lantern be
kept in the craft after dusk. Some equip
their boats with searchlights OF small
patterns. and a number Of fancy light
ing contrivances have been seen.
That Is all wrong. The law requires
lantern with a white globe which
shines on all sides. 1t need not be kept
constantly in view. but must remain
lighted.
II should be shown only when danger
of collision is apparent. such as when
a launch. or other craft approaches.
Poor weather has kept canoeing from
being as popular this season as at the
same time last year. The war. TO an
extent. has taken away interest. too.
The sport is picking up now. with the
advent Of excellent weather. The river.
which has been yellow with mud for
several weeks. Is now clear.
