N. Us Average Tax
Rate Jumps 6 Points

Notwithstanding an increase of
more than S297,OOOOOO in ratables,
New Jerseys average tax rate for
the current year is close to six points
above the figure for 1924, according
to an announcement today by the
State Board of Taxes and Assess
ment.
The total ratables of the State for
1924 amounted to S4,504,O47,295 and
the average rate was S3,671. The
ratables for the present year aggre-
gated S4,SO1, ,535,O02 and the average
rate is S3,72S.
By way of emphasizing the alarm
ing upward trend of tax levies, the
State Board cites the fact that in
1907 the average rate was $1,627.
Since then there has been steady
climb to the present high level.
One explanation of the increased
levy is found in the boards state
ment that the total required for
municipal budgets this year is $179,-
004 4,457.61. This is the largest amount
ever raised by the State for this pur-
porse and is leap of S13,677, ,64316
over 1924, when the municipal bud
gets necessitated the collection Of
$165, 5,326,S14.45.

Which System Is Best

We have heard lot about the
roads that the Romans built; but
wages and life counted for little in
their construction.
In ten years time the United States
has built more hard surfaced roads
with we'll paid labor than the Romans
ever thought of constructing. Today
a man can travel for thousands of
miles in this country on wonderful
hard surfaced highways. They fur
nish a pleasant and safe means of
transportation for millions of people.
Road commissioners realize more
and more that it is essential to utilize
old graveled and macadamized roads
as the base for permanent hard sur
faced pavements.
While 100000 might build mile
of Roman road which would last for
a thousand years, the same 100000
will put an asphaltic concrete surface
20 feet wide two inches thick at the
center and five inches thick at the
edges over nearly six miles of worn
out macadam under the plan of the
California Highway Commission for
utilizing old gravel and macadam
roads as base for hard surface
covering. Six times as many people
can be served and six times as many
miles of highway that will last for
many years can be built.

Choose Goou' Hardware,
IT Is Most Tmnortan,

Hardware to many home builders is
such small item in the entire cost
Of building that they often neglect
it to attend to larger things like foun-
dations, roofs, walls and other parts
Of their new home.
And that is where they make their
mistake. In the first place give par
ticular attention to the hardware on
the front door. This is the first thing
a visitor sees while waiting for a
door bell to be answered, and one
should remember it is the little things
that give the lasting impression.
Choose hardware that harmonizes
with the general architecture of the
rest Of your building inside and out,
If you would avoid the grotesque.
Do not be carried away with hardware
that Is attractive for itself alone.
Remember hardware has two i'm
portant roles in your home. The
first is, it protects your property
therefore, have it strong enough to
resist the invader; second, it serves
as an extra decoration.

Anticipate Great
Traffic Increase

Looking forty years into the future
to the year 1865 traffic experts of the
Regional Plan of New York and it's
environs predict that the volume of
traffic in that year on the twenty
three main arterial highways leading
into New York City from outlying
areas in New York, New Jersey and
Connecticut will be from three to
three and one-half times the present
maximum capacity of those thorough
fares. The estimate of this great in
crease in vehicular traffic is contained
in one hundred and twenty-five
page monograph entitled Highway
Traffic in New York and Its Environs'
prepared by Harold M Lewis, execu-
tive engineer, and made public today
by the Regional Plan of New York
and It's Environs. The report is the
result of more than two years inten-
sive study of the highway problem
caused by the growth of traffic in the
New York Region.
Traffic in New York City, states the
report, and in particular, Manhattan
Island, has already reached such
point that the north and south ave-
nues crossing 48th street will be carry
ing the limit of their traffic hourly
capacity by the year 1880, even though
present official proposals for increas-
ing roadway space are carried out.

BUILDING
Builders Refuse
Unions Demands

All building operations in Engle-
wood came to a complete stop on
Tuesday as result of the refusal of
contractors and builders to sign the
new wage and working agreement
drawn up by the local labor union.
The bricklayers' union has called a
sympathetic strike, and masons are
also out to help the laborers' cause.
The ultimatum states that all labor
ers shall be paid $S day and allows
ten holidays with pay. 1t also de-
mands that all workers be members
of the union or such members can de-
mand their removal. The agreement
runs until May 1, 1926.
The men also demand an eight hour
working day and a A hour week, all
overtime being paid at the rate of
double time and time shall go on until
they are paid off if compelled to wait
afer 1890 p. m. on Saturday unless
paid by the day.
All laborers are also enjoined from
using their own tools on any work
they are employed to do under a S25
fine. They are forbidden to take or
ders from anyone but member of
their own union or members of the
bricklayers' or masons' unions, and
they are prohibited from using any
tools of members of either union un-
der penalty of $25 fine.

Creatures That Man
Is Unable TO Tame

A wolf can be tanned Even the big
savage timber wolf. If caught young,
becomes as passive as dog. But that
queer 'wolf-like animal known as the
Tasmanian devil refuses to respond to
treatment. 1t is always wild and saw
age. and usually dies If kept in cap
tivity. 1t is one of the ugliest crea-
lures alive. The great cats, such as
the lion and tiger, can be tanned; SO
can the South African lynx and the
South American panther.
But the black jaguar. one Of the most
dangerous Of wild beasts. always re
mains savage and treacherous, and
even when caught as kitten refuses
to have anything to do with mankind
The ordinary, leopard can+be tanned II
caught young enough, but is liable to
revert suddenly to savagery. and the
same may be said Of the bobcat, the
North American lynx.
Another North American animal
which has an evil reputation is the
wolverine. 1t is dreaded by the trap
per, for 1t will force its way into o
shanty and destroy the stores.

Schedules Taking Shape
For Realtor Specials

Plans opened some weeks ago by
leading real estate boards over the
country to bring large state delega-
tions to the coming annual convention
of the National Association of Real
Estate Boards are now ripening.
Schedules are being formed for spe-
cial parties and for holiday trips fol-
lowing the convention.
The convention will be held in De-
troit, Michigan, June 1926.
All railroads have granted rate of
a fare and half for the round trip.
The reduction in rates will be made
under certificate plan.
Eastern convention comers will be
largely grouped around the delega-
tions from New York and from Penn
sylvania. The New York and New
England Realtors will come either by
boat from Buffalo, chartering the new
steamship Greater Buffalo" for its
maiden trip, leaving the evening of
June 22, or by special trains leaving
New York City the same evening.

be eliminated.
