Home Tax Exemption

No state has become more tax conscious than Connecticut. And it is right that we undertake to revive our tax system from time to time. It is very easy to raise taxes, but considerable of an undertaking to lower them. Just now this state is en- gagged in weighing the entire tax system. It is certainly out of proportion. We tax real estate too heavily. We shift burdens to the shoulders of the motorist. We contemplate making these latter ones even heavier, so that the growing costs of high way maintenance may be met without dlp- ping into general funds.
 A low tax limitation on realty and a homestead exemption up to $5,000 are favored by President Hugh Potter of the National Association of Real Estate Boards. That should have familiar ring to us here in Connecticut. Only this week Charles Palomba of this city appeared be- fore the hearing of the special Tax Study Commission in Hartford and advocated exemption up to $3,000 valuation of ali property. Last year in the Legislature and two years before that there were sim liar proposals as MT Palomba's.
 Also in 1883 it was proposed that all new dwellings be exempt from property tax for their first five years While some of these ideas received n little support from our legislators there didn't seem to be the necessary strength amassed to put any of them across. Yet some such plan must eventually be adopted in order to boom the building business and to per- suade what home owners there are left to make necessary repairs and alterations, such IS constitute legitimate business for the building trades.
 Such concessions are hard to obtain, but would do great deal to restore the countrys basic industry. Partial or tenn. porary measures along these lines have been stimulating wherever they have been tried. Pittsburgh has had reassuring experience with lower tax rate on homes and has suffered no losses in taxable values, because land values have risen az building taxes were reduced. Where there was q net loss in tax collections, as there probably would be in many cases, { it might be made up less painfully in other ways.
 Another suggestion made by MT Potter, who insists that he isn't radical is this: Capital will have to be satisfied with small return" Lower interest rates would be one form af smaller return. Capital already seems to be getting used to this idea. Long-term investors have been go- ing heavily into low-priced bonds and n- terest rates tend to fall May we look hopefully towards our banks, loan com -panies, etc, for some help along these lines
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-05-26

flclsIs connected with Che state hospital at MiddIelown declare their inability Co cope with conditions there. The hospital was always filled to capacity which Is not de- sirable under any circumstances. When full capacity Is maintained over q long period of time efficiency ultimately be- comes impaired. We have progressed since that day when millions were sug- gested for institutional expansion in Con- necticut. Such expansion has not gone far enough.
 Now we are at the point where we must finish what we started. It is going to be difficult work as our present financial condition is none too good with an $6,000,- 900 deficit looming next January. If we desert that old republican slogan of pay ing-as-we-go, we do 50 with the thought that if done some years ago, 1t might not be so expensive to do it right now. But for the best interests of the state we trust that whatever financial expedients are adopted, the welfare of the unfortunate of our state is not overlooked

Bachelor Tax Delusions

Some of our fellow-citizens are getting excited again about tax on bachelors, such as has been adopted in Italy and is threatened in Germany and some other countries. There is talk of it now in Cali forna, Indiana and Rhode Island. It is usually urged as a counter move against a declining birth rate. Advocates, too, argue that the selfish bachelors should divide up thci rincomes. Some think they're having too good time. Others think they're not having a good enough time. There will never be any agreement on these points. But there is one economic factor that seems to be overlookedb most of the bachelor-baitng reformers. Bache- Jors are usually free spenders. If they were married, they would probably start righ in, as husbands usually do, saving their money. And that, as all of us who have been initiated into the newer eco- monies realize, is terrible thing.
 Money should be scattered around. It was savings, wasn't it, that got us into the mess we're just now getting out of? From savings come excessive investment overproduction and industrial paralysis If this philosophy is true, there should be no more marriages until it is proved that two can squander better than one.
