By the Assoclated Press. Chicago's financial ups arnd downs into the Census Bureau statistics of c“‘;‘?\.' t Midwestern tropolis, e greal mef recently cl.me aut flat with the statement of being broke, looked just that way in the 1020 nmncm line-up, but gave promise of nearer normalcy in 1930 figures, and down again in 1931, Just how low is the Chicago situation, in which tax levies have been tied up, partially untangled, and re-knotted in State legislation, only the “financial statistics of cities” reveal. Among 13 cities having a 500,000 pop- ulation and over in 1920 tables, Chi- cago reported least revenue from gen- eral property, special and poll taxes. The total was $28,890,000, compared to Buffalo, thirteenth city, which had $33,280,000. New York, largest city, with more than 6,000,000 inhabitants, re d 8 $467,738,000 tax revenue, 17 times as much as Chicago, with more than 3,000,- 000 popul.ntlon Philadelphia, nearing the 2,000,000 population mark, rema 896, 02! 000, more than three times Chi- cago’s total. Census Bureau experts said that in the absence of any tax levy whatever in Chicago in 1928, that column in the table being marked for a foot note, “Data not available,” the 1929 collec- tions were practically all delinquent taxes. But with a $63.68 per capita levy in 1929, as compared with New York's $66.85, the 1930 revenue, not yet com: piled by the wu, probably will e: ceed $100,000,000, or about the norm: that won't make Chi otg;o\u as she may look, for 19! fund.s t filled some of the earlier gaps, and this year sees the tax levy again tied uy in State litigation.
