DATE OF ISSUE OF THIS PUBLICATION.
As explained in previous numbers, this periodical,
owing to the great pressure for space, is now issued
in two parts. The first part, comprising the New
England and the Middle and the Central States (the
latter embracing Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan), is published in the first half of the year and
appears in May or June. The second part, comprising the rest of the country, is published towards
the close of the year, and is sent to our subscribers
to-day.
The change has been forced upon us by the constant addition to the number of municipal bond
issues and the inability to compress the information
concerning the same within the limits of a single
number. Not only are the older and more important
civic corporate bodies uninterruptedly putting out
further bonded obligations, but many of the minor
places, previously free from debt, have also entered
the ranks of borrowing communities and are constantly creating new issues. Besides this, in the
newer sections of the country where expansion and
development are such noteworthy characteristics of
affairs, new civil divisions are all the time springing
up. The result is that the demands for additional
space have outgrown our ability to provide for them
in the customary way, leaving no alternative but to
issue the Supplement in two parts and to assign a
portion of the country to each part.



No. 2791.

AVAILABILITY OF MUNICIPAL BONDS AS
SECURITY FOR DEPOSITS OF POSTAL
SAVINGS FUNDS.
In recent years municipal bonds have gained important
advantages through their exemption from the Federal income
tax and through the further fact that they are eligible within
certain limits and under certain regulations and restrictions
as security for deposits of Postal Savings Funds. The Postal
Savings system was established by Act approved June 25
1910, but the growth of the system has been greatly stimulated by amendments made by an Act of Congress approved
May 18 1916, and by another amendment made by Act of
July 2 1918. Under these amendments certain limitations
In the original law upon the aggregate of the deposits of
individuals have been greatly curtailed and the law liberalized. By the first amendment, the provision in the
original law that the balance to the credit of any one person
should never be allowed to exceed five hundred dollars, exclusive of accumulated interest, and the further provision
that"no one shall be permitted to deposit more than $100 in
any one calendar month" were both eliminated, the only
limitation imposed being that "the balance to the credit of
any person, upon which interest is payable, shall not exceed
$1,000 exclusive of accumulated interest"; a succeeding
section provided "that the Board of Trustees may, in their
discretion, and under such regulations as such Board may
promulgate, accept additional deposits not to exceed in the
aggregate $1,000 for each depositor, but upon which no interest shall be paid." The amendment of 1918 is contained
in the Postal Service Appropriation Act for 1919, approved
July 2 1918, and provides that the credit of any one person
in a postal savings depository, exclusive of accumulated interest, shall not exceed $2,500 and that non-interest-paying
deposits shall not be accepted.
Under the Postal Savings Law the funds received at
Postal Savings depository offices in each city, town, village
or other locality, must be deposited in solvent banks located
therein, provided these banks qualify to receive the deposits.
One of the qualifications is the pledging by the banks against
the deposits of "such security in public bonds or other
securities authorized by Act of Congress or supported by the
taxing power as the Board may prescribe, approve and deem
sufficient and necessary to insure the safety and prompt
payment of such deposits on demand." In accordance with
this requirement the Board of Trustees, consisting of the
Postmaster General, the Secretary of the Treasury and the
Attorney General, has prescribed the terms and conditions
and the figures at which different classes of municipal
obligations, meeting the requirements of the law, will be
accepted. These regulations are general in character and
were promulgated Aug. 16 1916, the rules being subdivided
in 28 sections, of which Sections 8 to 12, inclusive, appertain
to the securities to be pledged for the deposits. Section 8 of
these regulations was amended in 1917 by the Board of
Trustees so as to include Federal Farm Loan bonds. Some
other but minor amendments were also approved by the
Board of Trustees during 1917. These are all incorporated
in the transcript of the rules given below.
As far as prices are concerned, State bonds and also bonds
of the Territory of Hawaii are accepted at their market

value,but not above par; bonds of any city or county'having
a population of over 30,000 are accepted at 90% of their
market value, but if such market value is above par they
will be accepted at only 90% of the par value; bonds of any
city, town, borough or village in the United States having a
population running between 20,000 and 30,000 are accepted
at 80% of their market value, provided said market value is
not in excess of par; while bonds of any other city, town,
county or other legally constituted municipality or district
in the United States, otherwise eligible, are accepted at 75%
of their market value, but not to exceed 75% of the par
value. The eligibility of the securities is fixed by Sections
9 to 12 of the regulations. In the "Chronicle" of Jan. 27 1917
(page 315) we published some very interesting facts concerning the legal acceptability of bonds offered as security for
Postal Savings deposits, as contained in the report of the
Postmaster General and the Solicitor of the Post Office
Department for the fiscal year ending June 30 1916. We
now give Sections 8 to 12 of the Board's regulations in full
with all amendments included:

proved shall be accepted for the purposes named. Such securities, in the
amount so specified, shall be deposited with the Treasurer of the Board of
Trustees.
2. The Board of Trustees will accept as security for postal savings
deposits, at the respective values heroin fixed, negotiable interest-bearing

90% of their par value.
(d) Bonds of any city, town, borough, or village in the United States,

taxes, will be accepted at 75% of their market value, but if such market
value is above par, they will be accepted at 75% of their par value.
3. The term "net funded indebtedness," for the purposes of paragraph
2,(c),(d), and (e). Is hereby defined to be the difference between the legal
gross indebtedness of a city, town, county, or other legally constituted
municipality or district (Including the amount of the bonds of any civil
division whose territorial limits are approximately coterminous therewith)
and the aggregate of the following items, when included in such legal
gross indebtedness:

4. The Board of Trustees reserves the right to re-classify the securities
acceptable for deposits and to change the valuation at which they will be
accepted. Under no circumstances will securities of other classes than
those above named be accepted.
Sec. 9. Bonds of the several classes described in Section 8, Paragraph 2,
(b), (c), (d), and (e), to be acceptable as security, shall be the general

either directly or ultimately, without limitation to a special fund, from
the proceeds of taxes authorized to be levied upon all the taxable real and
personal property within the territorial limits of such political divisions:

statutes and appropriate proceedings, the effect of which is to make such
bonds general obligations of such assuming political division, and payable,
either directly or ultimately, without limitation to a special fund, from the
proceeds of taxes levied upon all the taxable real and personal property
within its territorial limits.
(b) Bonds isssued by or in behalf of any city, town, county, or other

UNITED STATES DEBT.

DEC., 1918.]

United States Debt and the Congressional Acts Authorizing It.
In the following detailed statement of the debt of the United States, we give references to the laws authorizing each
of the issues of bonds outstanding to-day. In 1917 the country entered upon an entirely new era in its debt history.
In the prosecution of the war against the Imperial German Government, new obligations hava been issued on a scale of unparalleled magnitude;and although hostilities have now ceased,and peace is virtually assured,at least one further issue of Liberty bonds will be necessary and is now being arranged for. By the Act of April 4 1917 authority was conferred upon the Secretary of the Treasury to issue $5,000,000,000 long-term bonds at not to exceed 332% interest ($3,000,000,000 of this being
for the purpose of establishing credits in the United States for the foreign Governments enlisted in the war against Germany), and $2,000,000,000 certificates of indebtedness, the latter running for periods not exceeding one year. By the
further Act of Sept. 24 1917, authority was conferred to issue $7,538,945,460 convertible 4% bonds to retire the $3,000,000,000 non-taxable 332% issue authorized to cover loans to the Allies, and to provide for new Allied credits of $4,000,000,000, the remaining $538,945,460 to be used for converting certain outstanding bonds, including the Danish West Indies,
Alaskan Railway, Panama Canal and naval construction issues. The bill also provided for the issuance of $2,000,000,000
each of one-year Treasury certificates of indebtedness and five-year war savings certificates. The interest rate on the
certificates the Secretary of the Treasury was left to fix. By the further Act of April 4 1918, amending the Act of Sept.24
1917, authority was conferred to issue $12,000,000,000 of bonds at not exceeding 43% interest, the 12 billion dollars, however, to include the bonds issued under the Second Liberty Loan, and $3,638,945,460 being in lieu of corresponding amounts
of unissued bonds authorized by previous notes. Under the same Act the limit upon the amount of certificates of indebtedness that may be outstanding at any one time was raised from $4,000,000,000 to $8,000,000,000. By the further Act
of July 9 1918, amending previous Liberty bond enactments, the liniit of issue was raised to $20,000,000,000 at not exceeding
43.%; but including bonds theretofore issued and increasing from $5,500,000,000 to $7,000,000,000 the additional loans
or credits that may be extended to the Allies, making $10,000,000,000 altogether that may be loaned to the Allies. By the
Liberty Bond Exemption Bill of Sept. 24 1918, the total of War Savings Certificates that might be issued was raised from
$2,000,000,000 to $4,000,000,000.
In June 1917 $2,000,000,000 of 332% bonds were offered under the Act of April 24 1917. The subscriptions amounted
to $3,036,226,850, but only $2,000,000,000 was accepted. In October 1917 an offering of $3,000,000,000 4s under the Act of
Sept.. 24 1917 was made. Subscriptions reached an aggregate of $4,617,532,300. In accordance with previous announcement, one-half of the over-subscription was accepted, making the total of bonds put out under this offer $3,808,766,150.
In April 1918 $3,000,000,000 of 414% non-convertible bonds (Third Liberty Loan) were offered under the Act of April 4
1918. The subscriptions amounted to ,176,516,850, all of which were accepted. In Sept.-Oct. 1918 $6,000,000,000 of
414% non-convertible bonds (Fourth Liberty Loan) were offered under tho Act of July 9 1918. The subscriptions amounted
to $6,989,047,000, all of which were accepted.
The Act authorizing the First Liberty Loan was given in the "Chronicle" of April 28, page 1649,with further particulars
in the issue of May 12 1917, page 1849, and the text of the Treasury circular in the issue of May 19, page 1959; and of the
Second Loan the full text of the bill as it became a law in the "Chronicle" of Sept. 29 1917, page 1252, and the text of the
Treasury circular in the issue of Oct. 6, page 1355. The Act authorizing the Third Liberty Loan was presented in the
"Chronicle" of April 6 1918, page 1404, and the text of the Treasury circular in the issue of April 13, page 1517. The
Act authorizing the Fourth Liberty Loan appeared in the "Chronicle" of July 13 1918, page 131, the Treasury circular in
the issue of Oct. 5, page 1328, and the text of the Liberty Bond Exemption Bill on Oct. 5, page 1327. Certificates of indebtedness have been issued from time to time under the Act of April 24 1917 and the amendatory Acts of Sept. 24 1917,
April 4 1918 and July 9 1918, always for short periods.
In the following we present a full detailed statement of the debt of the United States as reported by the Treasurer at
the close of business on June 30 1918, this being the very latest monthly return issued at the time of going to press.

the certificates were to draw 4% interest from April 1 1879 and were convertible in sums of $50 or its multiples. The amount issued at the close of the fiscal
year (June 30 1879) was $39,308,110, but they had been converted so rapidly that there were outstanding at that date only $12,848,210. On Oct. 31
1.879 the entire authorize I amount had been reached, the maxi's-min of the issue being $40,012,750. Of these there were still outstanding on June
30 1918 a total of $11,200, included in debt bearing no Interest.
"LOAN OF 1925."—(Column 15.) Sales of bonds Included under this designation were effected (1) In February 189.5 to the amount of $62,315,400
and (2) in February 1896 to the amount of $100,000,000. In a message to Congress under date of February 8 1895 (published in the "Chronicle" Fob,
ruary 9 1895, page 244). President Cleveland stated in substance that in pursuance of Section 3700 of the Revised Statutes,the details of an arrangement had that day been concluded whereby bonds authorized under the Act of July14 1875,payable in coin at the pleasure of the United States after
the first day of Feb.1925, with:interest at the rate of 4% per annum, to the amount of $62,315,400, were to be issued for the purchase of gold coin amounting to a sum slightly in excess of $65,000,000, to be delivered to the Treasury of the United States, which sum added to the gold then held in the reserve
would so restore such reserve as to make it amount to something more than $100,000,000. Such a premium was to be allowed to the Government upon
the bonds as to fix the,rate of interest upon the amount of gold realized at 35,
1% per annum. At least one-half of the gold to be obtained was to be
supplied from abroad. Section 3700 of the revised Statutes is as follows:
"Sec. 3700. The Secretary of the Treasury may purchase coin with any of the bonds or notes of the United States authorized by law at such rate
and upon such terms as he may deem most advantageous to the publio interest."
For a construction of the "Refunding Act 0( 1870" and of the "Resumption Act of 1875," see "Chronicle," February 18 1893, page 265.
The issue in February 1896 was an ordinary offering, open to all bidders, of $100,000,000 of the same bonds as the foregoing—same in date, same

and may be redeemable before maturity, upon such terms and conditions as the Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe. Under this authorization
certificates of the series of 1918 have been issued, the price•of issue ranging from $4 12 in J.anuary to $4 23 in December. The average issue price
fixed for the year 1918 with interest at 4% per annum compounded quarterly for the average period to maturity will amount to $5 on Jan. 1 1923.
Provision was made for the sale of thrift stamps bearing no interest for 25 cents each. The purchaser of thrift stamps was furnished without cost
a thrift card to which such stamps could be affixed. Thrift stamps cannot be cashed, but when 16 thrift stamps representing a total of 34, are
affixed to a thrift card, they may, with a cash payment of from 12 to 23 cents, be exchanged for a war savings certificate stamp. There wereoutstanding on June 30 $349,797,297 53 war savings certificates and thrift stamps. It is estimated that by Dec.31 1918 roughly ;1,000,000,000 will have
been taken. By the Liberty Loan Exemption Bill of Sept. 24 1918, the total of War Savings Certificates that might be issued was raised from $2,000,000,000 to $4,000,000,000. In Dec. 1918 provision was being made for the issuance, beginning Jan. 1 1919, of the 1919 series of stamps and cretificates.

In April 1895 we gave a table showing the debt of the United States on the first day of July 1856, and every subsequent
year. On this occasion we begin our statement with 1878, as that year antedates all of the issues now outstanding. The
tatement is subjoined.

Note.—No Fourth Liberty Loan bonds yet issued, but subscriptions reached 86,989,017,000. I Continued at 334%. f Continued at 3%.
Note 1.—Tho annual interest charge is coniputed upon the amount of outstanding principal at the close of the fiscal year, and is exclusive of interest
charge on Pacific Railway bonds, but is incorrectly swelled to a small extent by interest on Thrift Stamps which are not separately stated.
Note 2.—The figures for July _l 1879 were made up assuming pending funding operations to have been completed.
*Note 3.—Under the Act of March 14 1900 the Treasury Department has kept the gold reserve fund as a separate item, and not included it in the
available cash balance. In the above statement, however, we have continued to include the item so as not to embarrass comparison with previous years.
a Under the new form of statement issued by the Treasury Department the gold reserve ($152,979,025 63 on June 30) is deducted from the total
of United States notes outstanding, decreasing to that extent the debt be aring no interest and consequently making a similar reduction in the balance
of cash available to pay maturing obligations.

all been paid or else converted Into certificates of indebtedness, which are
held by the various trust funds. The amounts due the several funds in
July 1918 were as follows:
Certificates of indebtedness. School Fund

*The largo increase in values for 1901 and since that date Is due
the
formation of a new State Board of Assessment by Chapter 2:37, Laws ofto
1901.
which has construed the existing law to be a command to assess at full value.
whereas former boards did not so construe the Act.
[The 1915 Legislature passed an Act (Chapter 407, Laws 1915) providing
for the re-assessment of railroad companies so as to include certain docks
and elevators omitted from prior valuations and for the distribution of the
taxes collected from such docks and elevators to the cities, towns and
villages In which they are located.1
DEBT LIMITATION.—The constitutional provision of Wisconsin restricting debt-making are very rigorous, plain and comprehensive. Since
the amendment adopted In 1874, debts of cities, &c., as well as the State,
are definitely limited by that instrument. We give the provisions first
which relate to the Stateand ,after, those which have reference to cities, &c.
(1) STATE indebtedness is confined within very close bounds. The sections
which cover the subject are Sections 3, 4. 6. 7. 9 and 10 of Article 8. We
give them in full below.
SECTION 3. Credit of State,for what not given. The credit of the
shall never be given or loaned In aid of any Individual, association orState
corporation.
SECTION 4. Contractihg Debts. The State shall never contract any
public debt except in the cases and manner herein provided.
SECTION 6. Limitation on Public Debt. For the purposeof defraying
extraordinary expenditures, the State may contract public debts (but such
debts shall never in the aggregate exceed $100.000). Every such debt shall
be authorized by law, for some purpose or purposes to be distinctly specified
therein; and the vote of a majority of all the members elected to each House
to be taken by yeas and nays,shall be necessary to the passage of such law;

and every such law shall provide for levying an annual tax sufficient to pay
the annual Interest of such debt, and the principal within five years shall
the passage of such law, and shall specially appropriate the proceeds of such
taxes to the payment of such principal and interest, and such appropriation
shall not be repealed, nor the taxes be postponed, or diminished, until the
principal and interest of such debt shall have been wholly paid
SECTION 7. State ma u borrow moneu. when. The Legislature may also
borrow money to repel invasion, suppress insurrection or defend the State
in time of war: but the money thus raised shall be applied exclusively to
the object for which the loan was authorized or to the payment of the debt
thereby created.
SECTION 9. Evidences of debt. No scrip,certificate or other evidence
of State debt whatsoever shall be issued, except for such debts as are authorized by the sixth and seventh sections of this article.
SECTION 10. Internal improvements—avails of grants. The State shall
never contract any debt for works of internal improvement or be a party In
carrying on such works; but whenever grants of land or other property shall
have been made to the State especially dedicated by the grant to particular
works of internal improvement,the State may carry on such particular works
and shall devote thereto the avails of such grants, and may pledge or appropriate the revenues derived from such works in aid of their completion.
Provided that the State may appropriate moneys for the purpose of acquiring, preserving and developing the water power and forests of the
State; bet there shall not be appropriated under the authority of this
section In any one year an amount to exceed two tenths of one mill of the
taxable property of the State as determined by the last preceding State
assessment.
(2) CITIES, counties, towns, villages, &c.,were unrestricted except by
legislative enactment until 1874. Since that amendment was adopted 5%
on the value of the taxable property has been the extreme amount of debt
permissible for any municipality. Not only is that the Case, but, as will be
seen, the municipality is required before, or at the time when It incurs any
indebtedness, to make provision for (or according to decisions of the State
Supreme Court) levy, an annual tax sufficient to pay the interest and
also sufficient to pay the principal within twenty years from the time
of contracting the debt. The voters in Nov. 1912 adopted an amendment
to Section 3 of Article XI. extending the time to fifty years within which
cities or counties having a population of 150.000 or over shall pay debts
incurred for the acquisition of land. The section referred to now reads as
follows:
Section 3, Article XI.—"It shall be the duty of the Legislature, and they
are hereby empowered to provide for the organization of cities and incorporated villages, and to restrict their power of taxation, assessment, borrowing money, contracting debts and loaning their credit, so as to prevent
abuses in assessments and taxation, and in contracting debts by such
municipal corporations."
"No county.city,town,village.school district or other municipal corporation shall be allowed to become indebted in any manner or for any purpose,
to any amount, including existing indebtedness in the aggregate exceeding
5% on the value of the taxable property therein, to be ascertained by the
last assessment for State and county taxes previous to the incurring of such
indebtedness. Any county, city, town, village, school district or other
municipal corporation incurring any indebtedness as aforesaid shall, before
or at the time of doing so provide for the collection of a direct annual tax
sufficient to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and
discharge the principal thereof within twenty years from the time of contracting the same. except that when such indebtedness Is incurred in the
acquisition of lands by cities, or by counties having a population of one
hundred and fifty thousand or over, ror public. municipal purposes or for
the permarnent improvement thereof, the city or county incurring the same
shall, before or at the time of so doing, provide for the collection of a direct
annual tax sufficient to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and
cols° to pay and discharge the principal thereof within a period not exceeding fifty years from the time of contracting the same."
The Legislature has from time to time passed laws providing for the
Issuance of bonds for various specified purposes, but these laws are too
numerous to be given here. Such authorttu is of course subject to the foregoing provisions of the constitution.
At its 1917 session the Legislature passed an Act (Chapter 18, approved
March 20) relative to the validity of bonds Issued by cities for any purpose,
and providing that: "If the electors of any city, prior to the passage of this
Act, shall have voted in favor ofissuing bonds for any purpose or purposes.
and the vote on such bonds shall be invalid by reason of the failure or neglect
or the city to print on the ballot by which the proposition ofissuing said bonds
was submitted to the electors a statement of the amount of bonds theretofore issned by such city for said purpose or purposes and then outstanding,
as required by Section 9430 of the statutes, the Common Council of such
city may, notwithstanding such failure or neglect, authorize the issuance of
said bonds and when Issued, they shall be valid, legal and binding, and of
, the same force and effect as though said Section 943e of the statutes had
been fully complied with." V. 104. p. 1308.

$196,173,719.
iThe total taxes levied in the above table include the amounts raised
not only for State purposes, but also all taxes raised by the various minor
divisions of the State. The tax rate, however, is for State purposes. and
In 1915 it was $2.87; adding the tax of $1.23 for school and university
purposes, the total tax rate was $4.10.
ASSESSMENTS NOW MADE ON NEW BASIS.-The Legislature in
1913 passed a new law,known as Chapter 483, General Laws, 1913, under
which the county assessor assessesplatted real estate at 40% of its full value
and unplatted at 33 1-3%,where previously it was customary to assess real
property at 60% of its full valuation and any improvement thereon at 50%.
The personal property under this new law is now being assessed at 33 1-3%
and 25% of It. full valuation, where formerly about 50% was Assessed.
DEBT LI M ITATION.-Minnesota has protected the State from extravagant expenditures through restrictions which its constitution puts on
every Wind of debt-making. That instrument fixes the limit at $250,000
"for the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenditures"; and an amendment, ratified in 1879, extended this power to $250,000 additional "for
erecting and completing buildings for the insane, a deaf, dumb and blind
asylum, and State prison." Besides the foregoing, it is also provided that
the State credit shall not be loaned, &c.
With regard to the debt of
municipalities there Is but one section in the constitution which relates to
that subject, and that has reference to making railroad debt.
FIRST, as to State indebtedness, the sections which treat of the subject
are In article 9, sections 5. 6, 7. 8 and 14.
SECTION 5.-(Public Debt May Be Contracted.)- For the purpose of
defraying extraordinary expenditures, the State may contract public debts,
but such debts shall never, In the aggregate, exceed two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars; every such debt shall be authorised by law for some single
object, to be distinctly specified therein; and no such law shall take effect
until it shall have been passed by the vote of two-thirds of the members of
each branch of the Legislature, to be recorded by the yeas and nays on
the journals of each House, respectively; and every such law shall levy a
tax annually sufficient to pay the annual interest on such debt, and also
a tax sufficient to pay the principal of such debt within ten years from
the final passage of such law, and shall specially appropriate the proceeds
of such taxes to the payment of such principal and Interest; and such
appropriation and taxes shall not be repealed, postponed, or dimished
utntil the principal and interest of such debt shall have been wholly paid.
The State shall never contract any debts for works of internal improvements,
or be a party In carrying on such works, except in cases where grants of
land or other property shall have been made to the State, especially dedicated by the grant to specific purposes, and in such cases the State shall
devote thereto the avails of such grants, and may pledge or appropriate
the revenues derived from such works in aid of their completion.
SECTION 6.-(Bands for Pu6lic Debt.)-All debts authorized by the
preceding section shall be contracted by loan on State bonds of amounts
not less than five hundred dollars each on interest, payable within ten
years after the final passage of the law authorizing such debt; and such
bonds shall not be sold by the State under par. A correct registry of all
such bonds shall be kept by the Treasurer in numerical order, so as always
to exhibit the number and amount unpaid, and to whom severally made
payable.
SECTION 7.---The State shall never contract any public debt, unless in
time of war, to repel invasion or suppress insurrection, except in the cases
and in the manner provided In the fifth and sixth sections of this article.
SECTION 8.-(Application of Loans.)-The money arising from any
loan made, or debt or liability contracted, shall be applied to the object
specified in the Act authorizing such debt or liability, or to the repayment
of such debt or liability, and to no other purpose Whatever.
SECTION I4.-(Public Debt for State Buildinys.)-For the purpose of
erecting and completing buildings for a hospital for the insane, a deaf,
dumb and blind asylum, and State prison, the Legislature may, by law.
Increase the public debt of the State, to an amount not exceeding two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars. in addition to the public debt already
heretofore authorized by the constitution, and for that purpose may provide by law for issuing and negotiating the bonds of the State, and appropriate the money only for the purpose aforesaid, which bonds shall be payable
In not less than ten nor more than thirty years from the date of the same,
at the option of the State.
SECOND, as to city, county or other municipality, the only restriction
on the debt-making power in the constitution is the following, found
in article 9, section 15:
SECTION 15.-(Municipal Debts in Aid of Railroads.)-The Legislature
shall not authorize any county, township, city or other municipal corporation to issue bonds, or to become indebted In any manner, to aid in
the construction or equipment of any or all railroads to an amount that
shall exceed five per centum of the value of the taxable property within
such county, township, city, or other municipal corporation; the amount
of such taxable property to be ascertained and determined by the last
assessment of said property made, for the purpose of State and county
taxation, previous to the incurring of such indebtedness.
The foregoing was adopted as an amendment In 1879. Before Its adoption the section read so as to authorize municipal corporations to issue
bonds in aid of railroads to ten per cent of valuation. Hence the amendment
consisted in simply changing the word ten and making it five.
This is all the constitution contains with reference to the debts of munici
palities.
The Legislature, however, has made some general provisions governing
bond issues which are contained in Sections 1851, 1862, 1903, 1907 and
1932 of the General Statutes, 1913.
Section 1851 provides that "no city of the first class shall hereafter
incur or be subject to a net indebtedness in excess of 5% of the assessed
value, nor shall any other municipal corporation except school districts
become so indebted beyond 10% of such values." It is provided also
"that if the net indebtedness of any municipality, at the time when the
Revised Laws take effect, shall exceed the limit herein fixed, or if any
village thereafter organized as a city under a home rule charter shall be
subject to such excess when so organized, either may issue and sell new
bonds sufficient in amount to refund all or any part of such existing
indebtedness, but the same shall not thereby be increased."
Section 1862 relating to independent school districts situated wholly or
in part within any city having a population of more than 50,000, states
that "no such school district shall have power to Issue bonds or any
evidences of indebtedness running more than two years, whenever the
aggregate of the outstanding bonds and evidences of indetedness of such
district equals or exceeds 33i% of the assessed value of all taxable
property within such school district."
Section 1903 refers to cities having a population of 20,000 or less and
provides that bonds may be issued for such purposes as permanent
improvement, bridge, shipping terminal, water and light, city hospital.
school and general fund, but stipulates that "none of such bonds above
described shall be issued whereby the aggregate bonded indebtedness of
the city, excluding any funds, bonds or balances held in a sinking fund,
shall be made to exceed 10% of the assessed valuation of the taxable
property within the city, provided, however, for the purpose of determining the limitation bonds issued for the purpose of acquiring, constructing.
improving, operating or purchasing water power or lighting plants shall not
be included."
No bonds authorized by this Act shall be issued by any city, until the
issuance thereof shall have been first authorized by a three-fifths vote
of the legal voters of the city voting upon the question, and the question
of the issuance of such bonds shall be submitted to the electors of the
city proposing to issue the same at a general or special election.
Cities having more than 10,000 and not more than 20,000 inhabitants,
in addition to all the powers now possessed by such city, are authorized
by Section 19011 to issue bonds for local improvements not exceeding

$25,000, and according to Section 1907 "the bonds authorized by Section
1 of this Act (Section 1906) or any portion thereof, may be issued and
sold by any such city notwithstanding any limitation contained in the
charter of such city or in any law of this State, prescribing or fixing
any limit upon the bonded indebtedness of such city, but the full faith
and credit of any such city shall at all times be pledged for the payment
of any bonds issued under this Act and for the current interest thereon,
and the city council and common council of such city shall each year
include in the tax levy for such city a sufficient amount to provide for
the payment of such interest and for the accumulation of a sinking fund
for the redemption of such bonds at their maturity.'
Section 1932 provides that villages in Minnesota having a floating
indebtedness may issue bonds for the purpose of refunding the same;
but no such bonds shall be issued, or sold which, with bonds already
issued shall exceed 15% of the assessed valuation of real estate of said
village.

SUPREME COURT RULING AFFECTING SCHOOL BONDS.
The State Supreme Court on Dec. 28 1917 ruled that bond issues for the
erection of new school buildings must be initiated with the passage of resolutions by boards of education under Minnesota laws, otherwise a vote of

General Statutes defines moneys and credits as follows:

The value of moneys and credits amounting to $303,501,582 are not
included in the valuation figures for 1916, as they are now taxed as a separate item at a flat rate of 5 mills on the dollar of actual value. See following item.
x These figures represent the values as ordered by the executive council in
July 1916 and are subject to change when adjusted and spread upon tax
lists by the various counties in the State.
TAXATION OF MONEYS AND CREDITS.-The Legislature in 1911
passed an Act (Chapter 63)• requiring that moneys and credits be taxed at
full value with a flat levy of 5 mills. Previously moneys and credits were
assessed at full value and taxed at 25% of this value the same as other
property.
TAX RATE.-The State tax(per 61.000)for 1915 was$4.50; this included
$2.22 general tax, $2.11 for educational institutions and 17 cents for Capitol gropnd extension.
DEBT LIMITATION.-Iowa's Constitution restricts the creatlng of
debt, both State and municipal debt.
FIRST,as to State debt, the limitation made is not absolute,for it permits
other debt if authorized by some law for some single specified work. But
this permission is very safely guarded-(1) the law must provide for the
collection of a direct annual tax sufficient to pay the Interest regularly and
discharge the debt in twenty years; and (2) the law cannot take effect
until it has been submitted to the people at a general election, and has
received a majority of the votes cast. All the debt provisions relating to
the State we give below:
ARTICLE 7,Section 1. [Limitation of State indebtedness.] The credit
of the State shall not in any manner be given or loaned to, or in aid of,
any individual,association or corporation;and the State shall never assume
or become responsible for the debts or liabilities of any individual, association or corporation, unless incurred in time of war for the benefit of the
State.

of 1902 (Section 12a—see V. 75. p. 1165), cities of from 2,000 to 30,000
Inhabitants may, by a two-thirds vote, exceed the limit, by an additional
5%, for the purchase or construction for water and light purposes; finally
(4). that before or at the time of getting the assent of the voters an annual

sections referred to above:
Sec. 44. General Assembly Not to Contract Debts Except as Herein.—
The General Assembly shall have no power to contract or authorize the
contracting of any debt or liability on behalf of the State, or to issue bonds

creation.
Third. On the occurring of any unforeseen emergency,or casual deficiency
of the revenue, when the temporary liability incurred or to be incurred
shall exceed the sum of $250,000 for any one year, the General Assembly
may submit an Act providing for the loan, or for the contracting of the
liability, and containing a provision for levying a tax sufficient to pay the
interest and principal when they become due (the latter in not more than
thirteen years from the date of its creation), to the qualified voters a( the
State, and when the Act so submitted shall have been ratified by a twothirds majority, at an election held for that purpose, due publication having

incurred shall be paid, principal and interest.

stockholder in such corporation, association or company: Provided, That
this shall not be construed as to prohibit the General Assembly from providing by law for authorizing the creation, maintenance and management
of a fund for the pensioning of crippled and disabled firemen, and for the
relief of the widows and minor children of deceased firemen, by such cities,
villages or incorporated towns as may have an organized fire department—
said fund to be taken from the municipal revenue of such cities, villages

Sec. 6. Municipalities Not to Subscribe to Capital Stock nor Aid Corporations or Institutions.—No county, township, city or other municipality

without the assent of two-thirds of the voters thereof voting at an election
to be held for that purpose; nor in cases requiring such assent shall any
indebtedness be allowed to be incurred to an amount including existing
indebtedness, in the aggregate exceeding 5% on the value of the taxable
property therein, to be ascertained by the assessment next before the last
assessment for State and county purposes, previous to the incurring of
such indebtedness: Provided, That with such assent any county may be
allowed to become indebted to a larger amount for the erection of a court
house or jail, or for the grading, construction, paving or maintaining of
paved, graveled, macadamized or rock roads and necessary bridges and
culverts therein; and provided further, That any county, city, town, township, school district or other political corporation or subdivision of the

(See V. 104, p. 2258, for reference to decision handed down by the State
Supreme Court on May 22 1917, ruling that county highways may be constructed through cities.]
TAXATION OF MUNICIPAL BONDS.—In reply to our inquiry as
to whether or not bonds or notes or other evidences of Indebtedness issued
by the State or any of Its municipalities were exempt from taxation, we
were advised under date of December 8 1911 by the Secretary of State
that "bonds or notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued by this
State are subject to taxation under the State constitution. There has
been no legislation enacted exempting such papers from taxation."
TAX ON SECURED DEBTS.—The Legislature of 1917 enacted a law
providing for a tax on secured debts, In which are included, among other
things, any and all bonds of any State or political subdivision thereof.
The new law levies a tax for State purposes of 5 cents per $100 face value,
or fraction thereof, for each year the secured debt is to run, up to four years;
where the bond runs for five years or over, the tax is a lump sum of 25 cents
per $100. Taxes not exceeding this rate are authorized for county purposes,
and further taxes not exceeding the same rate may be levied by cities and
incorporated towns in the State. The city of St. Louis, though not in a
county, is authorized to levy taxes as a county and as a city. It Is provided
that any _person paying the taxes so levied shall be exempt from further
taxation by the State of Missouri or any political subdivision thereof,
except that renewals of any secured debt shall be taxed as though a new debt
had been created. Until these taxes are paid, secured debts shall remain
subject to the regular personal property tax.

DEBT LIMITATION.-The limitations to the debt-making power of
the State and municipalities of North Dakota are found in Article XII
The provisions with reference to the matter are comOf its constitution
plete and stringent, and are as follows:
SECTIoN is2. The State may, to meet casual deficits or failure in
the revenue, or In case of extraordinary emergencies, contract debts, but
such debts shall never in the aggregate exceed the sum of two hundred
thousand dollars, exclusive of what may be the debt of North Dakota
at the time of the adoption of this constitution. Every such debt shall be
authorized by law for certain purposes,to be definitely mentioned therein.
and every such law shall provide for levying an annual tax sufficient to
pay the Interest semi-amsually. and the principal within thirty years from
the passage of such lase, and shall specially appropriate the proceeds of
such tax to the payment of said principal and interest, and such appropriation shall not be repealed nor the tax discontinued until such debt, both
principal and interest, shall have been fully paid. No debt In excess of
the limit named shall be incurred except for the purpose of repelling invasion, suppressing insurrection, defending the State in time of war, or
to provide for public defense In case of threatened hostilities; but the Issuing
of new bonds to refund existing indebtedness shall not be construed to
be any part or portion of said two hundred thousand dollars
[At the Nov. 5 1918 general election an amendment to Section 182 was
submitted to voters changing the debt limit from $200,000, exclusive
of what may be the debt of North Dakota at the time of the adoption of
the Constitution, by providing that all bonds in excess of $2,000,000 shall
be secured by first mortgages upon real estate in amounts not to exceed
one-half of its value; or upon real and personal property of State-owned
utilities, enterprises or industries in amounts not exceeding its value, and
provided, further, that the State shall not issue or guarantee bonds upon
property of State-owned utilities, enterprises or industries in excess of
$10,000,000. As soon as it is determined by ,(tidal count whether this
amendment carried or not, the fact will be reported in the "State and City"
Department of the "Chronicle."J
alsarl'iuN is3 The dent of any county, township, city, town. scnooi
district or any other political subdivision, shall never exceed five (5) per

that any incorporated city may, by a two-thirds vote, increase such indebtedness three (3) per centum on such assessed value beyond said five (5)
per cent limit. In estimating the indebtedness which a city, county, township, school district or any other political subdivision may incur, the
entire amount of existing indebtedness, whether contracted prior or subsequent to the adoption of this constitution shall be included; provided,
further.that any incorporated city may 'become indebted in any amount
not exceeding four (4) per centum on such assessed value without regard
to the existing indebtedness of such city,or for the purpose of constructing
or purchasing water-works for furnishing a supply of water to the inhabitants of such city, or for the purpose of constructing sewers,and for
no other purpose whatever. All bonds or obligations in excess of the amount
of indebtedness permitted by this constitution given by any city, county
township, town, school district, or any other political subdivision, shall
be void.
SECTION 184. Any city, county, township, town, school district
or any other political subdivision, incurring indebtedness, shall, at or
before the time of so doing, provide for the collection of an annual tax
sufficient to pay the interest and also the principal thereof when due, and
all laws or ordinances providing for the payment of the interest or principal of any debt shall be irrepealable until such debt be paid.
SECTION 185. Neither the State nor any county, city, township,
town, school district, or any other political subdivision, shall loan or give
its credit or make donations to or in aid of any individual, association or
corporation, except for necessary support of the poor, nor subscribe to or
become the owner of the capital stock of any association or corporation,
nor shall the State engage in any work of internal improvement unless
authorized by a two-thirds vote of the people. Provided, (in accordance
with an amendment adopted in 1914) that the State may appropriate
money in the treasury or to be thereafter raised by taxation for the contruction or Improvement of public highways.

In a decision which had to do with the adjustment of the indebtedness
between Custer and Fallon counties, the State Supreme Court on Dec. 19

See V. 103, p. 2445.1
COUNTY FUNDING AND REFUNDING BONDS VALIDATED BY
ACT OF LEG ISLATURE.-At the special session of the Montana Legislaiture in 1918 an Act was passed (Chapter 5) legalizing and validating bonds
ssued by counties for the purpose of funding or refunding outstanding
Indebtedness issued by counties without the question of issuing the same,
or funding or refunding such indebtedness, having been submitted to and
approved by the electors. V. 106, p. 1257.
TAXATION OF MUNICIPAL BONDS.-Concerning the taxation of
bonds or notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued by this State or any
of its municipalities, the Attorney-General advised us under date of Dec. 22
1911 that there is no legislative enactment expressly exempting such seturities from taxation.
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS.-Section 33 of the laws of Monana, relating to banks and banking corporations, reads:
Sec. 33. No commercial bank shall purchase, agree to purchase, or
underwrite any bond issue in excess of 10% of its assets, except bonds of the
United States, of the State of Montana, of the cities, towns, counties, or
school districts of this State.

• *Under the Revenue Law of 1901 property is required to be assessed at
its true value. In 1913 this law was amended to provide for assessment at
true and full cash value". This accounts for the large increase in values
of 1901 and 1913, as property was assessed at a very much lower basis in
earlier years.
In addition to the tax rate as above,there is a poll tax of $1.00 per.capita.
In 1880 and prior to that date this poll tax was 50 cents per capita.
The State Supreme Court in an opinion handed down .April 3 1916
upholds the increase in assessed valuations ordered by I,,he Colorado Tax
Cemmission and State Board of Equalization. See item under "Denver"
in "Chronicle" of April 15 1916 page 1461; also V. 98, p. 249. A proposed
' abolishing the Colorado Tax Commission
amendment to the constitution
was defeated at the November 1916 election. V. 104. D. 677.
DEBT LIMITATION.-Colorado's constitutional debt limitations are
found in Article 11 of the constitution and were published in the "State
and City Supplement" of April 1895, pages 140 and 141. Section 3of
Article XI. of the constitution concerning the debt limitation of the State
was amended Nov. 8 1910 as follows (V. 92, p. 202):
SECTION 3. Thu State shall not contract any debt by loan in any form,
except to provide for casual deficiencies of revenue. erect public buildings
for the use of the State, suppress insurrection, defend the State, or, in time
of war, assist in defending the United States and the amount of the debt
contracted in any one year to provide for deficiencies of revenue shall not
exceed one-fourth of a mill on each dollar of valuation of taxable property
within the State, aed the aggregate amount of such debt shall not at any
time exceed three-fourths of a mill on each dollar of said valuation, until
the valuation shall equal one hundred millions of dollars, and thereafter
such debt shall not exceed one hundred thousand dollars, and the debt
Incurred in any one year or erection of public buildings shall not exceed
one-half mill on each dollar of said valuation, and the aggregate amount
of such debt shall never at any time exceed the sum of fifty thousand dollars
(except as provided in section five of this article).and in all cases the valuation in this section mentioned shall be that of the assessment last preceding
the creation of said debt. Provided, That, in addition to the amount of
debt that may be incurred as above, the State may contract a debt by loan
for the purpose of paying the principal and accrued interest of all the outstanding warrants issued by this State during and for the years 1887 1888,
1889. 1892, 1893, 1894 and 1897, said debt to be evidenced by registered
coupon interest-bearing funding bonds to an amount not exceeding $2,115,000, or so much thereof as may be necessary to pay said warrants and interest thereon. For remainder of this section, as amended. see V. 89, 13• 1363.
Counties are prohibited from contracting debt by loan in any form,
except for public buildings, roads and bridges, and such indebtedness is not
to exceed in any one year $1.50 on each $1,000 in counties where the assessed
valuation exceeds $5,000,000, and $3 on each $1,000 in counties the assessed
valuation of which is less than $5000,000; the aggregate indebtedness of
any county for all purposes (exclusive of debts contracted before the adoption of the constitution) may not exceed twice the amount of the above
limit, unless the question incurring such indebtedness shall be submitted
to the qualified tax-paying electors; "but the bonds, if any beissued therefor, shall not run less than ten years, and the aggregate atnotint of debt so
contracted shall not at any time exceed twice the rate upon the valuation
last herein mentioned." Originally counties with a valuation of less than
$1.000,000 were not entitled to this privilege. The constitution also provides
that, with the approval of the tax-paying electors, counties might issue
bonds in liquidation of certain indebtedness existing prior to Dec. 311886.
School districts cannot incur debt without first submitting the proposition
to the tax-payers; otherwise there is no limit given in the State constitution
in their case. In April 1909 an Act was approved providing that the bonded
indebtedness of any school district of the first or second class shall never in
the aggregate exceed 5%, or of any school district of the third class 33i%,
of the assessed value of the property in such district for the year next preceding the date of said bonds.
Districts containing a school population of 1.000 or more are of the first
class districts of less than 1,000 and more than 350 are second class, and
districts having a population of 350 or less are of the third class,
In the contracting of debts by cities and towns, provision must be made
for a tax of not exceeding 12 mills on each dollar of valuation in order to




61

pay annual interest and extinguish debt within 15 years and in not less than
10 years. No debt can be created unless the question is first presented to
the tax-paying electors, and the aggregate of the debt must never exceed
3% of valuation. Debts contracted for supplying water are excepted from
the limit.
The provisions of the law relating to public revenue and limiting the levy
of taxes in the several taxing districts of the State are contained in Sections
1 to 16, inclusive, of Chapter 137, Laws of 1913, as amended in 1915 and
again in 1917. See V. 105, p. 1726, for changes made in 1917. The sections referred to read:
Sec. 1. The power of the board of commissioners of each of the several

it shall be the duty of the Colorado Tax Commission to examine into the
needs of such taxing district and ascertain from such examination the financial condition thereof and if, in the opinion of the Colorado Tax Commission, such taxing district Is in need of additional funds, the said Commission may recommend an increased levy for such taxing district above the
limits hereinbefore applied, and such taxing district is authorized to make
such excess levy not exceeding five mills on the dollar of the valuation of such
district; Provided, that in case the Colorado Tax Commission refuses or
fails to recommend such increased levy or that the excess levy not exceeding five mills is insufficient to meet the required needs of such taxing district, the question may be submitted to the voters of such taxing district
at a general or at a special election called for the purpose and in the manner

Sec. 16. Each section of this Act and every part of each section are
hereby declared to be independent sections and parts of sections, and the
holding of any section or part thereof to be void or ineffective for any cause
shall not be deemed to affect any other section or any part thereof.
TAXATION OF MUNICIPAL BONDS.-The Legal Department of the

Treasurer's office or in New York City.
BONDED DEBT October 1918 was $3,310,000. Sinking fund October
1918, $430.000.
TAX VALUATION.-Beginning with 1916 property has been assessed
on a full cash basis. The assessed value for 1918 is (estimated) $540,000.000; in 1917 it was estimated at $590,000,000; in 1916 it was $531,000,000:
In 1915 the final figures on the old basis was $228,096,737; in 1914, $221.611,412; in 1912, $200,299.207; in 1910, $186,354.505; in 1908, $166,019,855; in 1906, $145,995,949; in 1904, $132,994,247, and io 1900, $105,629,041. The State tax (per *$1,000) in 1917 is $5.09.
DEBT LIMITATION.-The indebtedness of this State is limited by its
constitution. The sections relating to State debt are found in Article XIV,
of that instrument, being Nos.1,2.5 and 6. We quote these sections below:
SECTION 1. To meet casual deficits or failures in revenue, and for
necessary expenditures for public purposes, including the erection of public
buildings, and for the payment of all Territorial indebtedness assumed by
the State. the State may contract debts not exceeding (as amended in
1910) in the aggregate at any one time an amount equal to one and one-bait
per centum of the value of the taxable property of the State, as shown by
the last assessment for State purposes previous to the incurring of such
Indebtedness. But the State shall never contract any indebtedness, except
as in the next section provided, in excess of such amount, and all moneys
arising from loans herein authorized shall be applied solely to the purposes
for which they were obtained.
SECTION 2. The State may contract debts to repel invasion, suppress
insurrection,or to defend the State in war,but the money arising from the
contracting of such debts shall be applied solely to the purpose for which
Ii is obtained.
SECTION 5. All moneys borrowed by, or on behalf of the State, or any
legal subdivision thereof, shall be used solely for the purpose specified In
the law authorizing the loan.
SECTION 6. The State shall not assume the debt, or any part thereof
of any county, city, town or school district.
Title 47, Ptevised Statutes of Utah, provides further for a State Board of
Loan Commissioners, who are authorized to refund all outstanding Territorial bonds. These bonds are not to be taxed within the State of Utah
for any purpose. Under the provisions of this Act several Tetritorial bond
issues have been refunded.
Counties, Cities, Towns, etc.-The constitutional provisions relating to
the debt of counties, cities, towns, school districts and other municipal corporations will be found in Sections 3. 4, Sand 7 of Article XIV. Section 5
Is quoted above. We give Sections 3,4 and 7 below.
SECTION 3. No debt in excess of the taxes for the current year shall
be created by any county or subdivision thereof, or by any school district
therein, or by any city, town or village, or any subdivision thereof, in this
State; unless the proposition to create such debt shall have been submitted
to a vote of such qualified electors as shall have paid a property sax therein.
in the year preceding such election,and a majority of those voting thereon,
shall have voted in favor of incurring such debt.
SECTION 4 When authorized to create indebtedness as provided in
Section 3 of this Article, no county shall become indebted to an amount
including existing indebtedness. exceeding 2%. No city, town, school
district or other municipal corporation shall become indebted to an amount,
including existing indebtedness, exceeding 4% of the value of the taxable
property therein, the value to be ascertained by the last assessment for
State and county purposes previous to the incurring of such indebtedness;
except that in incorporated cities the assessment shall be taken from Me
last assessment for city purposes; provided, that no part of the indebtedness
allowed ks this section shall be incurred for other than strictly county,
city, town or school district purposes; provided further. that any city of
the first and second class, when authorized as provided In Section 3 of this
Article, may be allowed to incur a larger indebtedness, not to exceed four
per centum and any city of the third class, or town, not to emceed lasamended in 19101 eight per centum additional, for supplying such city or
town with water, artificial lights or sewers when the works for supplying
such water, light and sewers shall be owned and controlled by the 11111121CI..
SECTION 7. Nothing in this Article shall be so construed as to impair
or add to the obligation of any debt heretofore contracted, in accordance
with the laws of Utah Territory, by any county, city, town or school district,
or to prevent the contracting of any debt or the issuing of bonds therefor,
in accordance with said laws, upon any proposition for that purpose, which,
according to said laws, may have been submitted to a vote of the qualified
electors of any county, city, town or school district before the day on which
this constitution takes effect.
.Section 308 of the Compiled Laws of Utah, 1907, which provides for the
incurring of indebtedness by cities and towns for the supply of water, artificial light, or sewers, was amended in 1917 and now stands as follows
,(V. 105, p. 1330):
Sec. 308. Any city or town In this State is hereby authorized to incur
an indebtedness not exceeding in the aggregate, with all other indebtedness,
8% of the value of the taxable prbperty therein for the purpose of supplying such city or town with water, artificial light or sewers when the works
for supplying such water, light and sewers shall be owned and controlled
by the municipality, provided that cities of the third class, and towns,
may become indebted to an amount not exceeding in the aggregate, with
4 of the value of the taxable property for the
all other indebtedness, 12%;
purpose of supplying such city or town with water, artificial light or sewers
when the works for supplying such water, light and sewers shall be owned
and controlled by the municipality, when the proposition to create such
debt shall have been submitted to the vote of such qualified electors as
shall have paid a property tax in the year preceding such election and a majority of those voting thereon shall have voted in favor of incurring such debt
TAXATION OP MUNICIPAL BON DS.-The Secretary of Stateadvised
us under date of December 11 1911. that he could find no statute which
expressly exempts from taxation bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued by the State; counties, school districts and municipalities.
The constitution, however, exempts all property owned by such political
divisions and also exempts mortgages from taxation, and it has been construed that the bonds of the State and its municinalities are mortgages,
and therefore not Mixable. The Legislature of 1911 passed two Acts
providing for bond issues (3260.000 road and bridge and 3300,000 university) and in both of these Acts it was expressly stipulated that the bonds
should be exempt from taxation for any purpose within the State
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS.-There are no stipulated securities
for investment by Utah savings banks. Section 429 of Chapter 9, Title
14, Compiled Laws of Utah, 1907, prescribes the bonds which are legal
investments for loan, trust and guaranty associations.

STATEHOOD.-The President on August 21 1911 signed the joint
resolution passed by Congress admitting the Territories of Arizona
and New Mexico into the Union This resolution provided that the voters
of Arizona must except judicial officers from the recall provision of their
constitution before Statehood is granted. V. 93, D. 546. On Dec. 12 1911
an amendment to this effect was favorably voted. V. 93, p. 1736. At
the session of the first State Legislature, however, a resolution was passed
providing for an amendment to the constitution extending the recall to
all public officers of the State, either by appointment or election. This
amendment was favorably voted at the general election Nov. 5 1912. The
State was admitted by proclamation of the President on Feb. 14 1912.
DEBT LIMITATION-BONDS TAX-FREE.-The power of the State
and its sub-divistons to incur debt is limited by Sections 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 of
Article /X, and by Section 2 of this same article such debt, when evidenced by bonds, will be exempt from taxation. The five sections referred to are given below in full:
Section 2. There shall be exempted from taxation all Federal, State
• county and municipal property. Property of educational, charitable and




69

religious associations or institutions not used or held for profit may be
exempted from taxation by law. Public debts, as evidenced by the bonds
of Arizona, its counties, municipalities, or other subdivisions, shall also be
exempt from taxation. There shall further be exempt from taxation the
property of widows, residents of this State, not exceeding the amount of
one thousand dollars, where the total assessment of such widow does not
exceed two thousand dollars. All property in the State not exempt under
the laws of the United States or under this constitution, or exempted by
law under the provisions of this section, shall be subject to taxation to be
ascertained as provided by law.
Sec. 3. The Legislature shall provide by law for an annual tax sufficient,
with other sources of revenue, to defray the necessary ordinary expenses of
the State for each fiscal year. And,for the purpose of paying the State
debt, if there be any, the Legislature shall provide for levying an annual
tax sufficient to pay the annual interest and the principal of such debt
within 25 years from the final passage of the law creating the debt. No tax •
shall be levied except in pursuance of law, and every law imposing a tax
shall state distinctly the object of the tax, to which object only it shall be
applied. All taxes levied and collected for State purposes shall be paid into
the State treasury in money only.
Sec. 5. The State may contract debts to supply the casual deficits or
failures in revenues, or to meet expenses not otherwise provided for; but
the aggregate amount of such debts, direct and contingent, whether contracted by virtue of one or more laws, or at different periods of time, shall
never exceed the sum of three hundred and fifty thousand dollars; and the
money arising from the creation of such debts shall be applied to the purpose for which It was obtained or to repay the debts so contracted, and to
no other purpose.
In addition to the above limited power to contract debts the State may
borrow money to repel invasion, suppress insurrection, or defend the State
In time of war; but the money thus raised shall be applied exclusively to the
object for which the loan shall have been authorized or to the payment of
the debt thereby created. No money shall be pa,d out of the State Treas
ury, except in the manner provided by law.
Sec. 6. Incorporated cities, towns and villages may be vested by aw
with power to make local improvements by special assessments, or by
special taxation of property benefited. For all corporate purposes, all
municipal corporations may be vested with authority to assess and collect
taxes.
Sec. 7. Neither the State, nor any county, city, town, municipality or
other subdivision of the State,shall ever give or loan its credit in the aid of.
or make any donation or grant, by subsidy or otherwise, to any individual,
association or corporation, or become a subscriber to, or a shareholder in.
any company or corporation, or become a loint owner with any person,
company or corporation, except as to such ownerships as may accrue to
the State by operation or provision of law.
Sec. 8. No county, city, town, school district, or other municipal corporation shall for any purpose become indebted in any manner to an
amount exceeding four percentum of the taxable property in such county.
city, town, school district, or other municipal corporation, without the
assent of a majority of the property taxpayers,who mustalso !nail respects
be qualified electors therein, voting at an election provided by law to be
held for that purpose, the value of the taxable property therein to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and county purposes, previous to
nourring such indebtedness; except, that in incorporated cities and towns
assessments shall be taken from the last assessment for city or town purposes; Provided, that under no circumstances shall any county or school
district become indebted to an amount exceeding ten per centum of such
taxable property, as shown by the last assessment roll thereof; and provided, further, that any incorporated city or town, with such assent, may
be allowed to become indebted to a larger amount, but not exceeding
fifteen per centum additional, for supplying such city or town with water,
artificial light or sewers, when the works for supplying such water, light
or sewers are or shall be owned and controlled by the municipality. In
Nov. 1912 an amendment to this section was adopted so as to limit the
amount of debt which may be incurred under any circumstances by a
county or school district to 10% of the taxable value. The limit which
witty be incurred by a city or town without the assent of the voters for
municipal water, light or sewer works is increased from 5% to 15% of the
taxable value.
TERRITORIAL AND MUNICIPAL BONDS EXEMPT FROM TAXATION.-For opinions, see V. 85, p. 1534; V. 86, p. 340; V.87. IL 111.
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS.-Sub-division 6 of Section 2123
of the Revised Statutes of Arizona, 1913, relating to savings and loan corporations, states that "no corporation must purchase, hold or convey
bonds, securities or evidences of indebtedness, public or private, except
bonds of the United States, the Territory of Arizona or State of Arizona,
and of the counties of this State and of the incorporated cities therein,
unless such corporation has a capital stock or reserve fund paid in of not
less than $100,000."
POPULATION.-Population of Arizona has been as follows in the years
mentioned. The total for 1900 includes Indians and whites on Indian reservations not previously taken into account. Such persons in 1890 aggregated 28,623 and in 1880 18,706. No report was made of the Indians and
