Increased Assessments
 WiH ProUide Millions

To the Editor of The Age Herald.
 Most worthy of thought and study In considering the proposed immense Increase of the bonded debt of Bir- minghan are facts and figures, not sentiment. The burden of debt is to be borne. not so much by those who are especially ambitious for orna- ment and gorgeous display. but by already overburdened taxpayers and home owners of Birmingham. Let us therefors consider calmly and well the conditions by which We are con- 1ronted.
 The assessed valuation of ths real and personal property In the city of Birmingham for the year 1921 Is sl4o.4bs.6So.oo. according to the city financial report.
 The tax rate Is IS mills. distributed in the following manner. five mills for general city purposes: eight mills for schools and mills for paying in- terest on general city bonds. and maintenance of sinking fund. Accord ing to this assessed valuation, there should be s7o2,267.so for general city purposes. s1,l23.62s.s4 for schools and s702,2s7.s0 for paying interest on general city bonds and maintenance of the sinking fund referred to, mak- Ing a total of s2.62s,164.44 derived from taxation for all of said purposes.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-05-10

The result of this arrangement would be that at tho end of tho 16 years We shall have accumulated an interest and sinking fund. which by reinvestment at interest while the remaining outstanding bonds are ma turing. sufficient to wipe out our en- tire bonded indebtedness, and leave . probable surplus. after which we shall be able to abolish the five-mili tax now collected for that purpose.
 Another feature is that we shall have received and expended over s1o. 900, 100000 for buildings in tho 16 years for which we shall have gotten the benefit of 100 cents on the dollar, instead of owing s7.0oo.0o for bonds on which we shall have paid more than an equal amount of Inter- est by the time of their maturity. thus netting us considering the in- terest paid. less than $50 cents on the dollar.
 We should then be debt free with ample income to pay as we go, with F tax rate reduced from 21 mills to 16 mills, and all debts paid. Aside from this ws shall be spending our money here. thus putting into effect our motto: Trade in Birmingham" in- stead of spending 1t elsewhere for interest on bonds.
 Every citizen. whether . voter or not, is vitally interested in this mat ter, for it affects the cost of living.

Total interest and sinking fund. Total public buildings

~s><> PANPOSSN. A0tO EsSNo las much as freight charges, which as everyone knows the consumer always pays in the end. So 1t Is with taxes and interest on bonds, for whenever property owner pays increased taxes he adds 1t on his rent charge, and the merchant adds it to the prices of his merchandise, and the cost of shelter. food and raiment Is corres- pondingly increased to the non-prop- erty owner.
 Another phase of the situation is that the less burdensome our taxes are the more incentive there Is for people to own property. and also the moro demand there will be for prop erty.
 Before we plunge headlong farther into debt in the manner prescribed by the proponents of this $7,000. .00o.00 bond issue let us stop to consider the cost and whether we may not manage our affairs so as to get out of the financial muddie instead of going deeper in. At least the public Is en- titled to the whole truth about the actual, dire necessity for such an enormous increase of bonded debt. and what it Is going to cost as well. Let us not hand them "Cat in tho bag"
