 Discusses Taxation

After discussing several proposi- tions taken up by him in other ral- lies, MT. Bartlett reached the matter of tax reduction. His rival, MT. Quiz ley, has promised a few days ago that he would reduce taxes if it was necessary to close up city hall offices and put the ito let" sign on the door. Last night, Bartlett asked:
 Would you reduce the tax rate by doing away with some of your fire men, policemen and teachers, by stopping necessary Improvements or by cutting the salaries of city en- ployes?"
 The candidates made it plain that such a program would not meet his approval, although he expressed a conviction that money being eXpend- ed can be so handled as to bring greater return. The average city en- ploye does not do as much for his pay as the average factory worker, probably through political practice, but a change in this condition can be effected, Mir. Bartlett asserted
