ZONE FARES FOR STREET CARS, No. s

Last week word can from the State Board of Taxes and Assessments
that the utilities companies would pay nearly 100000 in franchise taxes
this yea. Emphasis was laid IN the fact that this was $722307 more than
last year. !
Municipal officials everywhere werepeaed with the idea that the cities
and towns were going to get so much money.
They had reason to be; for every dollar Of franchise taxes turned in
by a utility company reduces by uSt SO much the taxes that would hav to
be assessed against other property. Franchise axe make possible lower To-
cal tax rates and I've the individual property owner money.
for Street CawG'
And the answerw would be: ut has a great deal to do with it; the pub.
lie has to pay the bill.
OF the 100000 apportoned among the various communities more
than wothirds-$2O26S0O2 to be exact-has been assessed against the
Public Service companies. And of this $2O26SOO the Railway has to meet
the largest share.
Again, of the $4,000 over last year, three Public Service companies
account for more than $4,000.
Think of it, nearly half a million dollars increase in franchise taxes in
On yeari This is lot al estimate. 1t is a fact.
And every dollar, not only of the increase, but of the whole tax, has
to con out Of rates The companies strictly speaking, dom pay 1t. The
consumer, the car rider, pays ii. The companies in a sense, merely act as
collectors and turn the money over to the municipalities.
That's why franchise taxes have something to do with Zone Fares. The
Railway Company nus meet its expenses from carfares; franchise taxes are
and the only wa a street railway can provide for higher taxes, higher wages
and higher material costs is by getting more money.
And the Zone System worked out by the company makes the charges
