The campaign to bring about a condition under which the city of New York shall not be taxed to the extent, a r the expenses of other communities | and the State at large Is already un- der way, The following bills will) shortly be taken out of committee and Put before the Legislature for dis-| cussion: A bill introduced by Assemblyman Joxeph D. Kelly of the Twelfth Dis- t| trict, Manhattan, providing for « re- | peal of the law which requires the Btate to pay local taxes on wild lands | in the Adriondacks, Under the law as it stands the State pays practically all a taxes of many mountain com- | munities deca: no Sta th@isunds of weres ot land’ in the counties in which the taxes are as- » Should this bill pass the city | ew York would not be assesxod t weventy per cent. of the taxes which Y) the State pe to these remote com- in} munities.

A bill introduced by Assemblyman | Kelly for the refunding by the State ; to the city of sixty-five per cent. of |the State Motor vehicle tax, paid by idents of Greater D Under | the existing law every penny of this tax goes to tho maintenance of up- .| State roads, The Kelly bill, if passed, | would mean a revenue of about $800, 000 to the city this year, and that would knock « point off the tax rate, A bill Introduced by Assemblyman | Maurice Bloch of the Twenty-second District of Manhattan, providing that the State sball pay the expenses of the regulative activities of tho Public Service Commission of the Firat Dis- trict. This ts a just measure becaus the regulative function of the com mission ts a State function and | paid for by the State in the Second District, embracing the State outside New York City.

The raving should amount to $400,000 on administrative expenses, Under the provisions of the bill the Board of Estimate is to have the pewers of | initiative and supervision, now exer- cined by the Board of Water Supply, | it will be up to the Board of Bsti- to say whether the Schoharie extensidn scheme, intended to store « water supply which will not be need- ed for at least fifteen years, shall be put off until the city is able lo finance it, The postponement of the Scho- harie extension plan would save the | city $100,000 a year In interest. A bill’ withdrawing the financial aid of the Stats from rural com. munities for the maintenance of dirt | roads within the limits of those com. munities. In all justice the people of the communitiny should pay for The city’s 10 per ont. contribution to the maintenance ot rouds in villages and towns | amounts to over $700,000 a year. A bill creating a new city depart- ment to take over, generally speak- | ing, the control and maintenance of all’ public buildings and bridges. The Evening World bas maintained that by abolishing the Department of Bridges, and giving control of the bridges to the Borough Presi- dents, the greater part of the en- Rinecring and administrative ex. penses of the Bridge Department would be eliminated. Bills giving the City of New York & greater measure of home rule are in the hands of Senator Cromwell of Staten Island, Tho Evening World has pointed out that under authority conferred by the Cromwell bills the city could consolidate its scattered and overlapping engineering forces at a saving of $800,000 a year and bring about a reduction of one point in the tux rate.

A bill restoring the equal division between the State and the city of the excise taxes collected within the city, This would add _ $1,000,000 to the city’s revenue and reduce the tax rate 11-4 points. A bill to allow the city to retain the} tax on stock transiers co.lected with in the city. If the State should agr to this the city’s revenue would } increased $4,000,000 a year on an uver- age. The loss of revenue to the State could be made up by an amendment to the Inheritance Tax Law, Should the city be given the $4,000,000 a year for taxes on stock trangactions, oc- curring solely because of the oppor- tunities offered by the city, five points would be clipped off the tax rate. A bill to be introduced by Senator Wagner providing for a change in the administration of the Sinking Fund. Under the present system more of the State's revenue than is required ts diverted annually to the Sinking Fund to retire bonds. Senator Wagner be- eves his bill would release $10,000,- 000 to be applied to State expendi- tures, Such an addition to tho State's revenue would take off $10,000,000 of State taxation and, approximately, $7,000,000 of city taxation, The Clty Administration has pre- pared a bill providing that the State shall appropriate $10,000,000 out of the last authorized bond issue of $50,000,- 000 for highways, toward the construc- tion of highways in New York City. ‘There are many constitutional objec- tions to the bill in its present form. It is likely it will give way to the meas- ure advocated by The Evening World, which provides that @he State shall share equally with the city. every year the funds appropriated for the maintenance of highways, ‘This would give the city about $2,000,000 a year of Stato funds for street repairs, Of this sum the elty would contribute, by way of taxation, 70 per cent, or $1,- 400,000, but the net saving to the city would be $600,000 a year and the re- duction in the tax rate would amount to three-fourths of a point. ‘The above, in outline, is the plan to which Mayor Mitchel wishes to com- mit the legislative representatives of the city, the clvic organizations, the press and the public. . ‘The legislative session Is young and the plan is, of course, subject to revision, if revision be required by the recommendations of the Mills and Brown Committees, which have been studying taxation and city financing.

Hofmann has but to touch the keys, and the pianoforte finds a soul. It sings with subtle delicacy, with a sonorous power, a scintil- lating brilliance, that makes Hofmann’s Columbia Rec- ords pure delights of sone. His record -of Liszt's «Lie- bestraum”, for instance, is an absolute revelation to anyone who has not heard recent Columbia triumphs of pianoforte recording. Thesame matchlesspurity of tone is characteristic of COLUMBIA RECORDS by other great figures of the con- cert-platform—Godowsky, Schar- wenka, Kathleen Parlow, Ysaye, and Casals, And to this perfection of tone is added a marvelous definition, a clear separation of instrumental sounds, a glowing richness of en- semble effects in Columbia Rec- ords of orchestral, band, and in- strumental trio selections. pn You can arrange a Columbia recital or symphonic concert, which will be on as enjoyable as the actual per- formance of the artists, The artists may be absent in person, but they are present in personality jw Columbia Double Disc-Records.” New records on sale the 20th of every month.
