FALLS ON THE RENT PAYERS Wage Earners and Others Who Must Foot Bill Show Little Inter- est in Huge 1921 Expenditures— Landlords to Pass Along Burden. b , dealing with the abnormal budget of the City of New York for the year 1921, is addressed to the It is time the rent-payer came to a realization of the fact that 86 ber cent. of the taxes of this city comes out of the pockets of the people who pay rent The rent-payer thus far bas manifested only slight interest in a budget for 1921, which ts $70,000,000 in excess of the budget for 1920. Landlords and real-estate owners bave raised the only for ° objections to the tax-rate incre the opinion that he ts not interested. —(\\9 he on the landlord. K But the landlord is the money for his taxes from his tenanta. Under the law he Js entitled to a reasonable return on hia investment, The tenant, in reason, cannot expect the landlord to pay {ncreasod taxes out of his own pocket and, certainly, the landlord has no tnten- tion of doing so, THE TENANT PAYS, Every rent-payer in Greater New York should read and digest and remember this INCREASED TAXES MEAN INCREASED RENTAL; Just at this time, when rentals have mounted to an. oppressive figure, the city j# preparing to expend $343,000,000 as the cost of Gov- ernment and pass up $38,000,000 in addition to the Legislature, which will formulate legislation by authority of which the taxpayers will eventually be mulcted of that amount too, In order to be able to raise more money to spend the City Gov- ernment bas raised the assessed valuation of roal estate for purposes of taxation {n 1921 in the City of New York to $10,248,090,319, This in an increase in aasessed valuation of $1,243,732,948 over 1920, The Constitution allows the city to collect for local t poses 2 per cent. of the assessed valuation of rea) estate. Under the provisions of the law the city Is empowered to collect in taxes next year, in excess of the collections of 1920, 2 per cent. of 91,243,782,946, or $24,874,658. Thier sum {s to be exacted from landlords, BUT THE TENANTS ARE GOING TO REIMBURSE THE LANDLORDS {n increased rentals, Every ront-payer in the city will be affected according to his ability to pay. Here is a concrete example of how the increased taxation works out to the damage of the tenant's resources, A certamn west side apartment house—thousands of similar cases might be quoted—is valued for taxation purposes this year at $950,- 000, Tho house shelters seventy-two tenants. For taxation purposes in 1921 thin house t# valued at $1,150,000. On @ valuation of $950,000 at a taxation rate of $2.48 per $100- this year’s figure—the landlord paid tn taxes to the city the aum of $23,660, WHICH HE COLLECTED FROM THE TENANTS. On & valuation of $1,150,000 at a taxation rate of $2.85 per §100, which fe approximately what the rate will be {n 1921, the landlord will pay in taxes to the city the aum of $32,775, WHICH HE WILL COLLECT FROM THE TENANTS, His Increase in taxation for the your 1921 will amount to 89,218. This sum, divided pro rata among the seventy-two tenants, will take from each the sum of § for the year or, practically, $11 « month. Tho rentals in thin house average $1,800 @ yoar On the baste of his increased assesement alone the landlord will be justified In rataing the rent of each of his tenants 7 per cent No tax imposed {n recent years haw caused so mach grum 4nd resentment ax the State Income tax A man earning $7,500 @ year {s jnstified, according to economists, tn paying $1,800 a year for rent Take « $7,500 & year man tn the apartment house described above. He 1s married and pays a State Income tax of 1 per cent. on $7,600 leas $2,000 exemption, or $55 a year, and bis cries of protest can be fleard across the Hudson Itiver But his landlord, because of a awollon city budget, can take § @ year away from him and he doesn't utter a peep.
