He advocates that im- provements on real estate be exempted from taxation and that all the burden be thrown on the land itself. The only result advantageous to the poor would be the lowering of rents, and that advantage is more apparent than real. It would be un- profitable to hold vacant land, and it is argued that the idle pesple would be put to work building houses, in spite of the fact that we now have more buildings than are required by the population, as is evidenced vy the rows of vacant houses in all sections of the city. A “single tax” law might give an impetus to building operations, but it would be an unnatural and unhealthy impetus. Many people would be attracted into a business which would finaily strand them with nothing ta do after the inevitable crash. ‘Taxation is principally for the care and protection of property by police and fire departments, ete. Land requires very lit- ue of such protection; houses require very much, and they should at least bear an equal burden of taxation. If land must pay all the taxes in order that a surplus of houses may be built, why not go a step further ard help along a good cause by throwing the principal bur- den of taxation on bachelors? “A great stimulus would be given to” matrimony, and many more deserving women would have a chance to draw pin money or alimony. If a man ts willing to pay his fair share of taxes for the pleasure of having a large and spacious yard or lawn, rather than cover his land with tenement houses, let him do it. If he is willing to pay taxes on vacant lots, which yield no income, why not let him do it? Fortunes have been made from the so-called “unearned incre- ment,” but we do not hear so much about the fortunes lest speculating in land. If such spectlation ts an evil, the remedy is worse than the disease. THOMAS W. GILMER.
