Draw Heavy Crowd

A proposed sales tax and other
provisions of Alexandria S tenta-
tive budget of $7.3 million. are
expected to draw heavy attend
ance at a public hearing at 1870
pm. Thursday.
Alexandria Chamber of Com
merce and the Retail Merchants
Association were to meet at $3.50
pm. today at the Hotel George
Mason to map strategy in their
fight against the proposed 2 per
cent levy.
Last night, the Alexandria Cit
liens Advisory Tax Commission
discussed decisions it had reached
in recommending new revenue
measures and heard the views
of representatives of citizens
groups and businessmen.
Reassessment to Help
The commission chairman, for
mer Vice Mayor Albert A. Smoot,
said that part Of the additional
revenue needed for 1953-1954
would be provided through the
regular four-year reasseSsment
now under way in the city.
Mr.. Smoot said that the reas-
sesSment, ordered by the City
Council in conjunction with
State tax authorities, would in
crease the city's assessment total
by about 40 per cent, according
to a spot survey.
Mr.. Smoot said that, in view
of the reassessment. the COM
mission recommended that the
present real estate tax rate of
$2.75 per 500 of valuation be
left unchanged.
The commission also recon-
mended stronger enforcement of
personal property and business
license tax laws.
Close to Legal Limit.
Mr.. Smoot said the city is
dangerously close to it's legal
debt limit of IS per cent of as
sessed valuation. but that this
limit will rise when the reas-
sessment is completed.
1--WE feel, however," Mr.. Smoot
said that the city must face up
to the fact that it can't keep
putting of projects that might
be paid with current funds. You
shouldn't slap everything into a
bond issue. You can't keep city
needs waiting indefinitely"
Meeting elsewhere, last night,
three Alexandria civic groups
threatened to release a plan that
it said will doom the proposed
general tax if the levy is carried
out. The warning that Alexan-
drians would be asked to boycott
the city's stores came from j. L.
Mcbride, president of the Vet
erans Jamboree Association, Inc.
A joint resolution was signed by
the Veterans Jamboree Coopera-
tive, Inc, and the Alexandria
