High Trolley Fares
Blamed To Taxes

Atlantic CITY, oct. 10 tA. L. -
Municipal. state and federal officials
were vigorously assailcd Tor their
extravaganza III a special tax re-
port made today tn the American
Electric Railway Convention here.
William II. Maltbie. of Baltimore
is chairman OF the committee max
ing il.
The report declared that owing TO
governmental eNtravaGance IN part
every Workin@man in the United
States is paying an average tax OF
81 year which IS hidden in his car
fare. This is about tWO-thirds of a
cent out of every fare.
"One of the most serious prob
lens OF the dal is that of municipal.
state and federal CNtraVasancc." the
report said. The check upon public
extravaganza is to hp found only N
a demand on the part OF the public
Tor economy. and one Of the firSt
and most important steps in the de-
velopmcnt Of this public demand Is
the climiiia ton of indirect taxation.
approximately 10 per cent. of the
gross receipts OF the street car COM
panics Of the United States is de
voted to some form OF public bur
den. The average fare at the pres
ont time is So cents so an average
of nearly tWO-thirdS of 4 cent out of
every street ear fare collected in the
United states is an indirect tax up
on the street ear users for the bene
fit Of the general public.
The average workman riding to
and from his work $40 DAYS in the
year pays in this one item an indirect
tax of approximately 81.
1T this indirect tax and other
numerous indirect taxes which nc
pays could he bundled together with
the relatively small direct tax which
he is called upon to meet. Labelled.
and known to him as a tax. We
would find pressure for public
economy making Itself evident at the
polls in unmistakablc fashion.
Among the "ObSOlete" taxes point
CD out by the committee is ono Ior
paving between car tracks which had
its inception in horse car DAYS when
the animals boots destroyed cedar
block pavement between the rails.
Car riders do not realize. the re
port declared. That state end federal
bodies which fix the car fares of the
country, agure al Of these taxes in
when arriving at a fair fare.
