Comptroller Craix's Statement.


In statement on the budget Comp
troller Craig said:
Attempts have been made TO create
confusion with respect TO what is known
as the State school moneys apportioned
to the city. The Greater New York Char
ter has always required that these
moneys upon their receipt be paid into
the general fund for the reduction of
taxation. There has never been any de-
parture from this course. The Corpora
ton Counsel last year expressed the view
that n different course was required by
the State education law as amended In
1917. This view, however. has been held
to be erroneous, as the amendment OF
1917 made no change whatever in the
pre-eNisting law in this regard.
I'm every city of the state except
New York. Boards of Education In pre-
pairing their budget estimates are re-
quired to deduct from the total the
amount to be received from the State
School moneys; so that only the net
amount remaining can be raised by
taxation. In New York City the bud
get estimate submitted by the Board
OF Education must be for the gross
amount required for all purposes with
out any deduction of the State School
moneys. The Board of Estimate and
Apportionment appropriates the amount
I equircd and raises the same by tax
alton, az an offset to which the State
School moneys pursuant to the Char
tel are placed to the credit of the gem
erol fund for the reduction OF taxation.
These increased appropriations for
the Board OF Education may raise next
years tax rate above this year This
il a very serious matter, for the slight
est increase in taxes has invariably
been seized upon by landlords to raise
rents throughout the city to an oppres-
sve degree. Whether rents are in
creased next year depends very largely
upon the requirements of the Board Of
