Parking Meters
| Illegal Profits

The vast majority Of the IS 900
parking meters installed in cities
and towns throughout the country
are collecting far more money than
is necessary to amortize the cost
of the devices and to pay for their
maintenance and operation and for
that reason are being illegally oper-
ated. the American Automobile As
sociation charged today.
Courts have consistently ruled.
according to Thomas P. Henry Of
Detroit, president of the motor club,
that parking meters could not be
used to collect revenue beyond the
amount necessary to defray their
cost and pay for their operation.
With millions of dollars of park
ing meter income going into gen.
eral revenue Golfers" he declared
1T is important to note that only
minor and inconsequential amounts
have been devoted to permanent
parkingrelief, such as off-street IA
cilities or to other traffic improve
ment purposes"
This criticism came at time
when the House District Committee
here is considering a bill to give
the Commissioners authority to ex-
tend the use of parking meters

Americans Tax Bill
For Year Exceeds
"a Billion Dollars
Reach $4l0 Per Family,
Census Data Show;
locuI Governments Leud
By OLIVER MCKEE.

During the year ending June 80
1910, taxes collected in the United
States amounted to nearly $l4,300,-
900 900. or one fifth of the national
income, the Census Bureau an
nounced today.
Tax collections averaged $410 per
family, or $109 per capita, of which
s39 went to the Federal Govern
nent, s27 to the States and $43 to
local governments.
In eight years, tax collections have
increased so per cent, according to
census figures. In 1882, they totaled
s8.248, 900 900, or s66 per capita.
The breakdown was as follows:
Federal. including customs and in
ternal revenue, $5,114,000000; States,
s4.17l 900, 900, and local govern
ments, $4,000, 100000.
State Collections Multiply.
State tax collections were per
cent greater than in 1899 and were
two and a half times as large as
corresponding collections In 1882,
and II times as great as in 1918.
Collections of State taxes in
Maryland last year totaled $56,89s,-
900. and those in Virginia amounted
to s56.808 900. The Census Bureau
survey contains no figures on tax
collections in the District.
approximately "a per cent of State
collections in 1910 came from six
main categories of taxes. These
were sales taxes, unemployment
compensation taxes, leyies on spe-
cific businesses and occupations,
motor vehicle and drivers licenses,
income taxes and property taxes.
Sales taxes alone accounted for
DO per cent of the total, and more
than half of this amount came from
levies on gasoline.
While the States, in recent years,
have increasingly turned to sales
taxes to secure revenue, the relative
Importance of property taxes has
steadily declined. In 1919 property
axes accounted for As per cent of
total State tax collections. In 1910,
they produced only per cent of the
funds obtained by State govern
ments.
THE widely publicized income
and inheritance taxes, still the CEN
ter of some controversy, are rela-
lively unimportant sources of State
revenue" the bureau reported. "As
revenue producers, net income taxes
are also reliable from the
point of view of the needs Of gov
ernment, because income tax re-
ceipts tend to fall markedly during
depression years. when the Govern
ment is most seriously in need of in
creased revenues, while inheritance
tax collections vary unpredictably
according to the fluctuations of cap
ital values of property, and the
deaths of few very wealthy
individuals"
Sales Taxes Produce More.
Income taxes. and inheritance, es-
tate and gift taxes yielded and 3
per cent, respectively, of the 1910
totals.
Sales taxes netted s1,647 .40O, 900
last year. nearly II per cent more
than in 1899. Twenty-three States
had general sales tax, which pro-
duced s490, ,20O,0 in revenues. The
sales tax on gasoline, in effect in all
States, produced $845 400, 900.

Dairy Protests
Sci for Friday
County Loop Managers
to Consider Moove's
Utiee Come Argument

= The Macomb County Baseball
League had better hire q police
man next Friday. Someone is
going to have to keep order.
Managers of the eight loop
teams will meet at 8 o'clock in
Mount Clemens to decide on
the protest arising out of the
Mount Clemens-Utica game
Sunday which resulted in
80 victory for Utica at the end
of II innings.
CHARGE TWO BASES
The protest was lodged by
Ed Moose" Moore, the claim
being that Malow, Utica runner
took home from second-two
bases-on a wild pitch to score
tying run in the ninth. Or
vile Lee, manager of the Utica
nine, asserted that the runner
stole third and came one
one base on Gentz's wild
throw.
A second point expected to
end in hot argument is Hellner's
run in the second when he hit
long drive into the right and
Schering either threw his glove
at the ball or at the ground in
disgust. Hellner, though tag
ged out at home, was given a
run-despite hot debate from
the Uticans.
ACT AS COURT
In all probability, Moore and
Smith will present their argu-
ments and the umpires will
give their version at the meet
ing. The six managers not in
volved will act as a court to
decide the arguments.
