Emory Cites Figures To Show
Housing Has Benefited City

Figures tending to prove that the
establishment of two low-rer.t hous-
ing projects here by the Housing
Authority of the City Of Whining
ton has benefited the county and
city governments rather than dam
aging them by the removal Of tax
able property from the tax books
were quoted yesterday by H. r.
Emory executive director of
HACOW.
Emory pointed out that despite
the fact HACOW has purchased
property formerly valued for tax
purposes at $127, AS, the taxable
values in the city and county dur.
ing the past year, showed an in
crease Of more 1890, 900.
In removing property valued al
$127, 145 from the city and county
tax books, Emory pointed out, HA.
COW reduced the amount of taxes
to be collected annually at the cur.
rent rate of 30 cents per $500 vaiua.
ton for the county and $l.40 for
the city by the total sum of ST.
1877. 10.
At the time this property was
brought, he said, HACOW under.
took to pay the city and couL,ty
governments $12, 49, 60, Of which
So, 831.41 represented back CAKES
due in 1898 or years prior thereto
and $2,289.19 represented taxes
which had become liens on prop.
erty as of 1899 and some of which
was listed as back taxes.
This, he, pointed out, was an
average of four years back :axes
paid on all the property purchased
by HACOW. Some Of the property,
he said, was not in arrears at all
but on the other hand some Of it
had back taxes due for a period Of
ten years.
In addition to paying these tax
es, he pointed out HACOW has
spent and is spending approximate
ly $1,000, 900, making work for lab
oers and skilled artisans in the
city. This, he said he believes, is
the cause of at least a part Of the
increase in taxable values in the
city and county during the past
year.
Further, he said, much new
property has been built in the city
and county because OF property
purchased made by HACOW. He
cited one instance in which a
warehouse was bought by U.
COW and the owners of the old
property moved to a new site and
built a new warehouse. In another
instance, he said, HACOW pur-
chased the property on which al
old store stood and the owner con-
structed a new store elsewhere.
Still another enterpreneur, he said,
erected a store near the sit of one
Of the housing projects because
erection of the units there created
q new market in that section of
the city. In many instances, he
said, property owners who sold
property to HACOW took the mon
ey they received and erected new
houses. Others, he said, moved
their houses to new sites when the
land on which thy stood was sod
and used money paid them by
HACOW to modernize and improve
their houses.
