TAXATION AND EXPENDITURES W a ll Street Journal— People w h o com plain abo u t their taxes m ight find a useful hint in the re p ort recently filed b y the N ew Jersey board of equalization. The average ta x rate had jum ped from $1.97 o f last-year to $2.24 tor the present year, an increase o f 18.8 per cent. The board said: “ The increase is due to the fact th at local 'expenditures have in creased in a greater ratio than the sources o f local revenue.” > The ap p allin g fact can be ap plied to all the states. The cen sus returns g o back to 1860. They sh ow the average per capita levy to be more than three and one-half tim es w h a t it w as a t the earlier date. Of course, the ta x rate per $100 also increases.

The college alum ni were, as usual, equal to the emergency, and quickly gathered a team to meet the ‘V arsity .’ Although they showed flashes o f brilliant team w o rk and did some spectacular g o al shooting, the old “stars” were unable to keep the pace set by the younger generation. The score o f 5.1 to 20 w as doe largely to the difference in condition rather than in ability.
