thorizing the sale Of 100000 in city
bonds as a first instalment toward
the construction Of the wharf, dis
tribution and storage sheds planned.
Thirty-three bids for this work have

an additional storage shed also have

In discussing the question Of the
proposed increase in the city's in
debtedness by the Issuance OF bonds
Mayor Harvey has drawn attention
to the fact that in New England

by the savings banks in buying. mu-
nicipal bonds, is per cent OF the
assessed valuation, after deductine
such bonds as have been issued for
water supply purposes. and also such
bonds as may be held in a sinking
fund.

figures are as follows:

Tax Exempt Securities.

The surprising decline in income
tax payment during the peak of the
prosperity period, reveals how many
wealthy people have escaped taxation
in large measure by buying tax ex-
empt bonds
Is it good business for public au-
thorities to keep on issuing bonds with
this privilege? The reason for 80 do
ing has been, that the exempt bonds
bring a higher price. But proba oily
the public gets the worse end of the
bargain The higher price paid does
not compensate for losses IN taxes.
1t would not be fair to tax securities
already issued on an exempt basis.
without making compensation to
owners for the higher price paid to
get the exempt privilege. But it seems
doubtful policy to allow any more of
them to be issued The great amount
OF these securities available permits
biz class of wealthy people to es-
cape fair t&1ation.

NMag

The present economic conditions,
though they are necessarily painful
when we are passing through them,
are not without their good factors.
The past few years men have been
far more scarce than jobs. COnse-
quently, any kind of wOrkmen were
employed. good. bad, and Indifferent,
and they all demanded and of course
received, the same wages. The
wages, by the way, were far beyond
TIER widest dreams in normal
times.
Now this condition has changed.
We have increased efficiency among
our Iaborers because the men are
seeking jobs rather than the jobs
seeking the men. consequently, all
the poor wOrkmen are either driven
out of employment or forced to i'm
prove the quality of their work. As
result, this increase in efficiency
is bringing us increased production
at lower costs.
