The manner in which he restores the money and reunites the cian makes a story that provided many laughs for the audience. ry the adlng u!

that some discussion should take place on the necessity for the in- crease in the rate of assessment which we are about to pass,” said Coun. Chandler. “With that in mind I would call your attention to the fact that last year we ool- tlected. when arrears are counted in, some $2,000 more than the cur- rent revenue. By that I mean that we collected more dollars and cents by a special eflort directedagaixist arrears. than we would have col- . lected had we ignored arrears al- ‘ together and taken 100 per cent of t the current taxes. In spite of that, , at the end of the year the Council found itself with a deficit 0t $19,- 229.38, to which should properly be ‘ added $5,576.37, the amount of un- resented coupons payable in the fiscal year but not presented

for payment during that tim . "You will see from the. he continued, "that had we collected lever-y cent of current revenue we would $0111 have had a deficit of some ,000 last year. Bearing 'th.at 1n mind. the Finance Com- ittee this year arrived at the

ma" Seven‘ conclusion that, other things being

equal and no material reductions Ibeing possible in the expenditure, it was necessary to increase the tax rate by a sum sufficient to balance the budget this year. "You have already passed the Estimates for this year, amount- ing to $284,017.60. It is therefore hecessary for your Finance Com- mittee to arrive at some rate that would produce sufficient revenue to meet that expenditure without put- ting the City further in the hole. 5 This leg: our interest charges are over 1 000 more than they were last year. Willi that in mind we decided that it was impossible for us. or for any other committee of this Council. to secure that amount l under the old tax rate of 2'... per

cent. y "Reluctant as we are to impose

added tax burdens on our citizens at this time. we felt that it was in the interests of the City to have a'ba..'n:.\1:e<l ‘cu-agar. this. year. t» - t-iculariy because in the next two years the City of Charlottetown will be required to sell somethin
