A BIG CORPORATION

/ To the Editor:
Dear Sir
l. / wonder il it ever strikes the tax
payers of our city of Pensacola that
they are stockholders in very big
corporation.
| I wonder If there are many OF those
stockholders who have any idea OF the
financial position Of the city, or take
any interest in it.
If they were stockholders in large
commercial undertaking would they
not require that certified statement
Of the affairs of the concern be placed
before them periodically in order that
they might decide whether their in
vestment was sound or whether the
stock was only paper stock?
| Perhaps some figures from Mr.. Ha-
germans report of the operations from
October 1st, 1919, to October, 1870,
might be of interest to these stock
| holders.
| The treasurer's receipts for that per-
Tod were 494,525.92, and his disburse-
ments (including 55.250.64 bond invest
ment), $633,723.37. Food for reflexion.
Floating iabilities.--This liability is
incurred by the operating expenditures
exceeding the operating revenues year
by year. On October 1st, 1919, it
| amounted to SIP, 349.53. and on Octo-
Der list, 1920, to $143,004.53, or an in
crease of s30,655.00 for the year. Pro-
vision for the retirement of $90,239.7
has been made, leaving balance of
So2, 764.76 unprovided for. OF course,
these liabilities will be met, but how?
Out of the next year budget, which
means that appropriations for other
purposes will fall short during the
year.
Now I shall give you few figures
from the assets of our city corporation,
and leave them with you to ponder
over.

In his general remarks. Mr. Hager-
man says: at is very important that
detailed Inventories of every city de-
partment should be taken yearly, and
set up in the books. The only record of
inventories in the books at the present
time were taken in 1912. 1t is also i'm
portant that the records of the city
water front property and other real
estate be revised and brought up to.
date.
The dividends which a stakeholder of
a city corporation should receive are
minimum taxation with maximum SER
vice.
Are we receiving our dividends reg
ularly?

Isn't it for the people of the state

Arguments for and against the
