ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 25.—Only $100,000 of approximately $2,000,000 in loans recorded in Alexandria and neighboring counties is reported in tax ts, Corporation Counsel H. Noel Gar- ner told the Alexandria Kiwanis Club in an address dealing with tax equ. | ization. The remaining $1.900,000, which legally is taxable, produces no revenue to the State or city, he said. Less than 4,800 persons of 12,000 in the city who are assessed for poll taxes are paying, he sald, because of the in- sufficient measures provided for th collection by th te Legislature. It is the politicians’ wish, he declared, to have as small an electorate as possible in order to make majorities more easily controlled. He favored the ap- pointment of a central board to make the tax burden fall more equally throughout the State. Open for Inspection 323 to 333 Bryant St. N.E.
