Cities have grown both In wealth and population more rapidly than. the rural districts. We have not at hand statistics of the cities of the Maritime Provinces. but there are offlcial figures published whicn show how the cities of Ontario have enlarged their expenditures. their taxes per head and their in- debtedness and most cities are much alike in that regard. The assessed value of property in the cities oi‘ Ontario increased by 50 iper cent. between 1914 and 192i. but the taxes incresned 128 Deri ‘cent. The taxes for schools mount- ed upward 166 per cent. and the general expenditure. including both schools and civic services. gener- ally. rose from $260,885,000 in 1921 to $430,000,000 in 1924.

Civic taxation per head, lo far as we may judge from Ontario’; ex- perience in its leading cities, had idoubled between 1920 and 1924. or from $21 to $42 per head.

Yet when civic taxes run up in some cities to $200 per family, with provincial and federal tnx levies piled on top of them, the burden must be taken into account in making up the family budget for the year. it is evidently one of the potent causes of the high cost oi living, which is with its yet and
