Mayor Griffin of Hoboken talked with officials in Washington yesterday can pliers at bis city. He proposed that the City of Ho- boken be permitted to buy the piers. Should they become exempt from | taxation through Federal Gov- mment ownership Hoboken would lose $145,000 in taxes yearly, suffering 4 loss In ratable property of $6,282,700. rated at $9,000,000. If the piers are exempted, 20 per cent, of the city's ratable values will contribute nothing to the local Government.
