The 1915 tax budget, generally re- karded as something that affects only the wealthy, means that the avérage man, his fomily consisting of five, han to part with $200, or one-fifth of his income, City Chamberlain Bruere, who han figured it all out, said to- day: “On the basin of the 1918 budget, if every man, woman and child w taxpayer in equal amount, §40'w be the per capita cost. All of ts taxpayers, more or less—peragnally, or through our parents, or the? land- lord.” ‘The 1915 budget amounts to’ $199,- 298,286, an increase of $6,287,78f over the 1914 budget, The $40 figure in| _ obtained as an approximation by dividing $200,000,000, the amount of | the new budget, by 6,000,000, the pop- ulation of the city. “ The budget is jacked up for several reasons, says Mr. Bruere, There ie $1,000,000 increase in interest rates, due to the war, and a similar amount to take care of the cost of removing last year's snow. Deficiencies in taxes compose another important item, Mr. Bruere thinks there can be lib- eral cutting jn the budget for the De- partment of Education in 1916, “Including the interest rat ize,” said Chamberlain Bruere, “what it means to pay for public improve- ments, Public improvements havev | amounted to $100,000,000 a year. Now it in ‘the morning after.’ “We must pay for public improve- ments of years and years ago, The burden of expense was transferred to unborn generations, We are now trying to adopt a better policy, the ultimate aim being to have the city pay its expenses as it incurs them.” ANERKAN FLAG ON THER STOCKNGS MAY UND WOMEN NL Chicago Organization Starts Crusade Against “Desecray tion” Prevalent in London.
