TAXES RAISED
FOR ALL PURPOSES

In former report it was shown that
Of the aggregate amount of general
property taxes levied in the state for
all purposes for several years past, APP
prOXimately 10 per cent went to the
state, 20 per cent to the counties, and
20 per cent to the towns, villages, cit
les, villages and schools.
When the general property tax alone,
or the general property and income
taxes combined are considered, approx
imately 10 per cent of the total is paid
TO the state. But all railroad, tele-
graph, express, sleeping car, freight
line and insurance taxes, most of the
inheritance tax, and Is per cent Of
street railway and telephone taxes are
paid to and retained by the state
When these taxes are included in the
statement they materially increase the
percentage of all taxes raised which
is received and used by the state for
tn support. of state government.
1t should be borne in mind that Of
the $19,5S0, $50 received by the state
from all classes Of taxes 1882 ,425

net balance from all classes of taxes

year i'm question which was retained
and used for state purposes was ST.
053, 1874. AS nearly as the same can
be expressed in terms of taxes this
item represents what it cost the peo-
pie of the state for the support Of
state government for the year in ques-
lion After crediting the state with
the various amounts returned to The
local districts in the form of school.
highway and other aids, and charg-
ing the districts receiving the same,
the percentages of aggregate taxes
from all sources received and used by
the different classes Of political sub
divisions are as follows:
Retained and used by the state.
$500. .... - 1870 of the total
Received and used by
counties $780,. 49,. 227%o of the total
Received and used by
local districts
towns, cities and
villages - .36.4% of the total
Expended for school
purposes $500. 275%o of the total
Total - 100000
While the aggregate amount of taxes
levied and collected varies from year
to year, the apportionment thereof
between the state and its several
political subdivisions is reasonably
constant The foregoing percentages
therefore, represent approximately the
proportion of all taxes raised from
year to year which is devoted to the
support of the state. the counties, ;he

when the house passed and sent to
the senate the republican tax revision

The final vote on the measure was
274 to 1885, nine republicans voting in
the negative.
The chief feature of the bill as af-
fecting persons of ordinary incomes
are effective on the bills passage.
They include an increased exemption
of $500 for heads of families, making
the new exemption $4,000 instead of
$4,000 as under the old bill, and an in
creased exemption of 5000 for each de-
pendent making the new rate $500 in
stead of 5000.
AS passed, the bill in 1923 will be
cut $818,O00,0O0 from the present
levies yielding $3,6OO,0OO,OOO a year.
The reduction in 1922 will be approxi-
mately $4OO,OOO,OOO and for the pre-

Lord Curzon Says Empire Has
Yielded All Possible With
out PeriIing Realm.
CALLS TERMS final
Lloyd George Declares Government
Went as Far as Possible to Pur-
chase Peace and Good Will
of Irish People.

London-Lord Curzon, the secretary
for foreign affairs, speaking in the
House of Lords on the Irish negotia-
tions said the government had offered
all that could be given without com
promising the safety of the realm, the
sovereignty of the crown and the digni-
ty of the empire.
The British government declared
Premier Lloyd George, in making its
settlement proposals to Ireland, had
decided on putting the whole of its
terms into the letter to Eamonn De
Valera without keeping anything back,
and the sequel had proved, he said,
that it was right in adopting that
course.
Terms, Limit of Concessions.
He had heard no suggestions from
any part of the world except Ireland,
he remarked, that the proposals had
not gone to the limit of possible con-
cession
81 want to make it clear" continued
the prime minister, that the govern
ment did not put forth haggling terms,
but put forward everything they pos
sibly could concede to purchase peace
and the good will Of the Irish people.
In Ireland itself, so far as | can see,
the doubt is not so much as to the
terms, but as to whether the govern
ment really means them.
THAT is a question of working out
the terms-Of elucidatiOn and elabora-
ton, and not changing of the terms.
The outline cannot be altered, nor the
basis changed"
Disquieting Statements Made.
I'm view of the fact that the House
is about to separate and the fact that
very disquieting statements have been
made, and even of few disquieting
facts, we are bound dis government
to take thought of all possible con
tingenc.es, however unpleasant they
may be.
"The first is the possibility of an
agreement, in which case the details
will have to be threshed out, which
will take time. There is always apt
to be an atmosphere of suspicion sur
rounding relations between two coun-
tries-a suggestion Of bad faith if there
is a misunderstanding on the slightest
particular.
Delay Called Disastrous.
1T would thus be the duty of the
executive" said the prime minister, "to
place a bill embodying the details and
principles before the Parliament for
immediate action, because delay is
reached.
Il wish it was not necessary to deal
with the other contingency, but we are
bound to take notice of certain things
which have been said This contingent
cy is that our terms are rejected"
