LONG BEACH. Calf. No. IA
city OF $4,000 people without any
taxes. That is the startling situa-
ton for which plans are being made
in the case Of Long Beach. Cal.
The startling situation came about
because Of the fact that Long Beach
some ear ago purchased the top Of
Signal I'M, in h a city for public
park purposes.
With the discovery of the famous
Signal Hnl oil fields some years after
the purchase, the land has become
almost priceless and at present brings
the city $40. 0o0 n month royalty. The
city also owns other land in the same
lcality and the income FROM all Of
them Will shortly be sufficient to
pay the city's expenses. thus doing
away with the necessity for taxation.
