THE CITY RKVEXVK8.
WbH nearly everyone will admit
that the elty occupation tax U In
equitable and double teiatlon, It will
hamper the work of the elty official!
If the meaaure la held up by a refer
endum at tbla time. In order not to
cripple tna clty'a finance, wouldn't
It be better to aecure an acreement,
If poaalble, with the olty council, to
repeal the occupation tax altogether,

Initiative meaaure for the repeal of
tbe entire occupation tax would

adopted by the city council about a
year ago was decisively beaten In
October. The number of business
and professional people who pay the
occupation tax 14 fat exceeded by the
number ot individual property own
era who arc not so taxed. Knowing
that cutting off the occupation tax
would necessitate a raise of about
two mllla la the general tax levy, tbe
other property owners might conclude
that this would.be a good opportunity
to "let George do it," and therefore
