sessed in New York as real
property. II you combine Dis
trict real and personal property
per capita assessments, the Dis
trict figure would become ST.
701, or more than New York.
One of the Is cities still Is
higher, though - Baltimore,
which has a heavy personal
property levy, Mr.. Martin says.
Baltimore's total is $2.738.
No matter how you look at
it. Washington is highly as
sessed compared to other cities.
Here is how Washington
compares with the nearby jur-
isdictions:
Montgomery County - Tax
rate. $2.67; assessment-even
with the hotly protested recent
increases-about so to so per
cent of fair market value.
Prince Georges County-Tax
rate, $2.41. with assessment
about 40 per cent of market
value.
Arlington Tax rate, $2.81,
with assessment about 40 per
cent of fair market value.
Fairfax Tax rate, $2.61.
with assessment at about 20
per cent.
Falls Church Tax rate,
$2.75. and assessment about
IS per cent.
Alexandria-Tax rate, $2.75.
and assessment at about so
per cent.
Varying Assessments
Any comparisons provided
by these figures also are COM
plicated by varying interpreta-.
lions of assessors on what is
fair market value. Arlington.
for instance, figures this at
about Is per cent under selling
price.
OF course, the fair way to
do what must be done in public
works is to have Uncle Sam
shoulder his share of the bur-
den in grants and other loan
assistance. or by largely in
creasing the annual Federal
payment. Since Uncle Sam Is
AS usual-looking the other
way every time this subject
comes up, this is beyond
realistic expectations at this
time.
But he may be cutting the
financial throat of his own
Capital if he continues to kick
up the real estate tax.

Metropolitan Scene
The Only Hope For Expanding Public Works Here
Is To Absorb Another Substantial Tox Boost

Like it or not, the bald fact
Is that District residents are
going to face substantial tax
boosts If they want any stable
public works program outside
that covered in the regular city
budget.
The logic is simply this: The
Budget Bureau has turned
thumbs down on any large
scale grants or interest-fre
Federal loans to the District.
The alternative to these is
floating a bond issue, which
Congress never has approved
since 1878, or obtaining inter-
est-bearing Federal loans. In
either case the city will need
money to pay the interest. It
can get this from an increase
in the annual Federal payment
or through taxes. Chairman
Taber of the House Appropria-
tions Committee has sought
consistently to cut the pay
ment, not raise it. The easier
road for Congress to take is
to raise taxes.
What do you stand to face?
It's anybody's guess but these
are possibilities:
l. An increase in the $2.15
per hundred dollars of assessed
valuation real estate tax rate.
2. Increased sales tax rate
or extension of its coverage.
The latter is a more likely ap-
proach because it would run
into less opposition.
8. Increase in the rates or
lowered exemptions in the in
come tax with the latter also
q better bet, probably because
Of less opposition.
4. Increase in the liquor
taxes. which are lower in the
District than in the surround
ing counties.
5. A boost in the cigarette
tax Of possibly one cent.
6. Extension of the business
franchise tax to professions.
7. Increased water rates.
These and a new sewer tax al
ready are in the works plan.
8. An increase in the gaso-
line tax. which also Is less in
the District than in the nearby
States. Receipts here pre-
Sumably would be to cover
some improvements in the
highways section of the works
plan.

u S. Postwar Foreign Aid Bill Adds Up to Sal Billion

The President told legisla-
tors a couple Of weeks ago:
ut is necessary to do more
in the Far East :" He told
Of his desire to cut the 70
per cent foreign-aid total now
going to Europe to SO per cent
and thereby hike the present
Far East percentage from IA
to approximately 81.
OF the total SAL billion hand
out, the United States will
never get back $27.8 billion
which was distributed as
grants or gifts" Returns on
the 1892 billion in loans so far
totals only $3.4 billion. slightly
more than IS per cent.
American foreign aid is not
handed over to the recipient
to spend as he chooses. It is
distributed and spent under
close supervision of the United
States departments in charge
Of the many aid programs
such as point-four projects.
The principal fund distributors
have been the Mutual Secur-
ity Agency, the Defense De-
partment. the Agriculture De-
partlnent and the Defense Pro-
duction Administration.
The $35 billion in eco
nomic aid went for food, cloth
ing, essential raw materials.

Latin America, $500 million to
the Near East and Africa and
Sill billion to other areas
threatened with the Commu-
mist yoke or economic collapse.
OF the $50 billion in new ap-
preparations President Eisen-
hover is asking for foreign
aid during the 1854 fiscal year,
which begins July /, $2.7 bill
lion would go to Western Eu-
rope, SIT billion to the Asia
Pacific area, $500 million to
Greece. Turkey and Iran..and
$500 million to others. Last
week, however, the Mutual Sc
curity Agency advised Con-
gress to cut 1854 million OF
the $50 billion request.
. Two Policies Reversed
Up until the Republicans
took over, two policies pre-
vailed with regard to aid dis
tribution: Most Of the funds
were appropriated for the
economic side Of the foreign
aid ledger. as opposed to the
military side. and the greater
percentage of the combined
fund was devoted to aiding
Europe. Everything points to
a reversal Of those positions.
The military chunk will be
bigger, according to Gen. Ell
senhower's plans, and so will
the Far EaSt'S.

gestions have been discussed
in past District tax history
and been discarded.
The most dangerous Of the
proposals and the one that
always comes first to mind at
the Capitol is boosting the
real estate rate. Actually
the Commissioners have power
to fix the rate but have never
recommended raising it be-
cause of their belief that
property, already providing
about IS per cent of the city
income, is carrying enough Of
a load. All recent increases
in the rate have been ordered
at the Capitol.
Doneer in Raise
Why Is further increase
dangerous? Because it could
accentuate the flight of resi-
dents and businesses able to
pay taxes to the nearby coun-
ties. While the nearby county
tax rates are somewhat higher,
their assessments are, with the
possible exception of Mont
gomery county, considerably
lower resulting in a lower &C
tual tax payment on compa-
rable property.
District Assessor James l..
Martin is required to assess at
full and true value. Neither he
nor other assessors interpret
this to mean current selling
price. The factor Of imitation
is too variable. Actually. he
estimates that present city as
sessments on the whole are be-
tween so and 10 per cent Of
average current selling prices.
How does this compare with
other big cities? Get this. and
remember that less than half
of the District area is taxable:
OF Is cities having a popu-
lation Of 100000 or more. only
one exceeds Washington in
average per capita assessment
of taxable property-New York.
The District figure is $2,222
per capita against New York's
$2,461.
Furthermore. New York does
not have a tangible personal
property levy such as the Dis
trict has. Items like machin-
cry, which the District consid-
ers personal property, are as

By John M. Rosson

Since the end of World
War II this country has spent
SAL billion on foreign aid.
That's a lot Of money. So
much, in fact, that most
Americans paying the bill
have only the vaguest idea OF
where it all went.
Foreign aid, where the
United States is concerned, is
doled out and ultimately
spent under two general clas-
sifications: Economic and
military.
Over 40 Beneficiories
Since June, 1945, this coun-
try has come to the aid Of
more than 40 nations to the
tune of $35 billion in economic
assistance. Six more billion
has gone for arming and
clothing foreign troops.
Because there are elements
Of military security involved.

are admittedly incomplete.

Department does say were dis

In many European Countries
this money has provided the
only means by which bombed
out factories and war-torn
cities could begin to rebuild.
In others, it has improved
medical and education facili-
ties and in some it has helped
to stabilize tottering currency
values.
How Long?
The SAL billion foreign. aid
voted by the Congress since
1945 already matches the to-
tai contributed by the United
States to its allies during the
entire five years of World War
II. Economy-minded men on
Capitol Hill are asking one
question: How much longer
must this 60 on?" Few Of those
closest to the problem can see
any end at all.
Nor does Gen. Eisenhower
see any hope for early relief.
In a message to Congress early
this month he said:
1.-THE United States and our
partners throughout the world
must stand ready, for many
years II necessary, to build and
maintain adequate defenses
-. :" And when our partners
run short of funds to build
those adequate defenses. it
probably will be Uncle Sam
who takes up the slack.

Great Britain has received is
a military secret. In a similar
manner France has received a
minimum of IS billion. Ger
many at least $50 billion, Italy
at least $2.7 billion and Japan
at least $2.A billion. Four adj
ditional countlfes-National-
ist China. Greece. the Neither
lands and Austria-have re-.
ceived more than 81 billion
each.
European countries received
another SIS billion since 1915,
but the Commerce Department
gives no breakdown by coun-
try. It lists the amount in
lump sums labeled "unspec-
ifled Western Europe" and
other Europe"
An idea Of the disposition
Of the military allotment can
be obtained from a regional
breakdown, which shows that
