CHANGES WILL BE
 MADE IN LICENSE
 SCHEDULE IF 1923
New Methods of Computing Will Make Schedule More EquitabIe-Jitney Li-
 CenSeS Increased

License on merchandise stocks will be based next year on the 60 per cent assessed value, rather than on 100 per cent value, according to an agreement reached by city commis- sioners Monday, when the first draft of the 1923 license schedule was prac- tically completed.
 Automobile and repair shop li- censes will be figured on the basis of number of men employed, re placing a blanket license now In force This will include painting and decorating, repairing, renovat- ing and yulcanizing shops, and will mean material reduction in li- cense of small shops
 Jituey licenses were fixed in con ference at S65, taxicab licenses at $50 and interurban lines at S25. Each of these licenses has heretofore been S15. License on riveit-yourself lines was increased from $10 to s15.
 Some businesses not heretofore covered by license are included in the new schedule. Among these are mercantile investment companies and small five and ten cent stores.
 The license on wholesale cream cries was fixed at s100, and that of retail milk purveyors at s25. Under the present schedule both of these come under one rate of S35.
 The fixing of the jitney license elicited the most discussion. The raising of the license Is part of a program of ". B. cloe, commissioner of public safety, to regulate the number and operation of the jitneys Other regulations are under contem- plation.
 An attempt is being made to in clude in the license schedule a pro- vision requiring payment of jitney licenses and some other licenses by January 15, instead of April 1. Opin- ion from the legal department will determine whether this clause will be inserted. It Is pointed out that under the present delinquent period of 90 days. many jitneys and simi- larly small capitalized businesses are operated up to the limit and then abandoned, with the result that nc revenue is obtained from them.
 A. c. Smith, jitney inspector, has completed a count of jitnies, and is
 
 taxicabs and interurban lines. Ht declared that practically all jitneS operators are in favor of increasing the license and in favor of other regulations that will tend to stabi- lize the business. He will make a report on his survey soon.
 While the change in the method oi computing license of merchandise and repair shops will result in de- crease in revenue from that source it is said that other changes made in methods of computation. whicf include license on gross receipts during the year for certain business will equalize the revenue, bringing it up to approximately s75o,o00. tho figure for last year.
 IT. M. Taylor. city comptroller de clared that the new schedule will bt the most equitable ever employed. I will place . heavier burden on tho larger businesses, he said, and will also be more all-lnclusive than an, heretofore.
 The schedule will be ratified at : later meeting of tho commission.
