MUNICIPAL BOND SALES IN 1915.
Again we can say that the municipal bond sales
for the calendar year are the very largest on record.
This is the third successive year in which this statement has been true, and for 1915, as for 1914, it is
the more noteworthy because of the existence of
special circumstances and conditions which it might
have been supposed would have the contrary effect.
In 1914 the further growth in the aggregate of
municipal bond disposals occurred, notwithstanding
the extraordinary financial conditions which developed upon the outbreak of war in Europe and which
for over four months kept the Stock Exchange

ties then were in active demand for a twofold
reason : In the first place, railroad and industrial securities were in considerable disfav
.or because of hostile governmental and legislative policies and also because of growing depression in
trade and a tremendous contraction in railroad revenues. A second incentive to investments in municipal securities Was found in the circumstance that
such securities under the tariff law of October 1913
are entirely free from the Federal income tax. The
result was that the aggregate of municipal bond sales,
which in 1913 had increased to $403,246,518 from
$386,551,828 in 1912, now ran up to $474,074,395.
For 1915 now there is a further expansion in the
aggregate, raising it close to a round half billion
dollars, the exact total being $498,557,993. And
the figures have reference of course entirely to issues
of a permanent character, temporary obligations of
every nature being excluded. What an augmentation this total of roughly $500,000,000 represents
will appear when we say that.it was only two years
before that the $400,000,000 mark was reached,
and that ten years before, in 1905, the grand total of
thern sales was less than $200,000,000, being only
$183,080,023. The advantages operative in favor
of municipal bond issues in 1914 existed also in 1915,
namely that railroad securities were not in keen demand (the improvement in railroad conditions not

coming until the latter part of the year) and that
municipal obligations continued to enjoy exemption
from the Federal income tax. Nevertheless, it might
well have been doubted whether the exceptionally
high total of 1914 would be repeated, seeing that the
European nations, particularly Great Britain and
France, appeared as borrowers in our market and
offered obligations attractive for many reasons.
Not only, however, did the disposals continue to
grow, but (particularly during the last three months
of the year) a marked improvement occurred also
in values. The placing here of the $500,000,000
Anglo-French loan in October on an income basis
of 53'@5%% might have been expected to have a
distinctly adverse effect on investment values as a
whole. Instead the curious fact was presented of an
advance in high-grade bonds generally (gilt-edged
railroad bonds sharing in the appreciation in bond
values) and on an income basis yielding a very much
smaller return than that afforded by the AngloFrench loan. As is usually the case, the experience
of this city furnishes an excellent illustration of the
course and tendency of municipal bond . prices.
New York City on June 29 put out $46,000,000 432%
50-year stock at an average price of 101.253 (the
income basis being 4.437%) and $25,000,000 15-year
serial bonds at an average price of 101.306, an income basis of about 4.297%. About two-thirds of
the bonds went to a syndicate which offered the longterm issue to the public at 102. As late as Oct. 1
these bonds sold on the Stock Exchange at 101%.
On Dec. 10 sales occurred at 107 and the price
Dec. 31 was 106. As another illustration of the
improvement which occurred in prices, Newark,
N. J., on Aug. 20 disposed of $500,0004% 45-year
dock bonds at 102.08. On Nov. 22 Newark awarded
$250,000 of the same dock bonds at 108.31.
Further significance to these large sales of bonds
by United States municipalities is given by the fact
that Canada was also a borrower in this market. In
July 1915 the Canadian Government, which heretofore had always done its financing in London, arranged for the first time in its history to borrow from
New York bankers. It negotiated a loan for
5,000,000 at 5% interest, consisting of $25,000,000
1-year obligations and $20,000,000 2-year obligations.
The issue was taken by a syndicate composed of
J. P. Morgan & Co., Brown Brothers & Co., the
National City Bank, the First National Bank and
the local agency of the Bank of Montreal. The
Government of the Dominion then stipulated that it
would not borrow further sums in the United States
during 1915. Since the close of 1915, as is well
known, a further loan of $75,000,000 5% bonds has
been placed in the United States. Aside from the
borrowing by the Dominion Government itself,
Canadian municipalities also borrowed here and to a
much larger extent than in previous years. The
loans by the Dominion itself, together with those of
the various Provinces and municipalities, aggregated altogether $280,230,470, and according to the

4

records kept by E. R. Wood, of the Dominion
Securities Corporation, $113,332,896 were placed in
the United States, $24,333,333 in Great Britain,
while $142,564,241 were taken within Canada itself.
The great increase in the aggregate of bond sales
by United States municipalities during the last two
years, it is important to observe, came only in small
part from the newer sections of the country where
the most development may ordinarily be supposed
to be going on. This is a reversal of the experience
in the years prior to 1914. It may be recalled that
up to two years ago the increase in the output of
new issues was especially pronounced in the newer
parts of the country, thus supporting the inference
that in the main these new issues represented normal outlays in behalf of the proper development
of our cities and towns. The experience of the last
two years would seem to afford some reason for modifying this conclusion, since the further addition has
occurred almost entirely in the North Atlantic tier
of States and in those of the North Central group.
To bring out this distinction we again reprint a
table given by us many times before (but with the
1915 figures added) and which shows the distribution of the bond sales for the last twelve years among
the different geographical divisions of the country.

It will be seen from the foregoing that the North
Atlantic and the North Central groups combined increased their sales between 1913 and 1915 $92,000,000, roughly, while the other three groups or divisions
enlarged their marketings by less than $3,500,000.
The further gain in 1915 in the first two groups occurred notwithstanding a decrease of 203/2 million
dollars in the North Atlantic tier, due in part to
the diminished output of New York City. On the
other hand, in the three remaining groups the additions were in no case striking, while in one instance
at least, namely the Western or Pacific division,
there was actually a decrease the last two years.
In 1915 the Pacific group contributed only $55,906,444 to the total, as against $63,107,177 in 1914,
$74,148,282 in 1913, $68,473,242 in 1912 and
$71,276,437 in 1911. The Pacific group consists
of California, Oregon and Washington, besides
Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Colora,do, Wyoming and Montana. The falling-off
occurred mainly in the three States first mentioned.
In Washington and Oregon business depression continued quite marked, repressing all tendency toward
further expansion and development for the time
being, while in California the completion of the work
incidental to the San Francisco Exposition (in preparing for which considerable amounts of State and
municipal bonds had been put out) served in like
manner to limit new issues. The 1915 result for the
Pacific group might have been different if Denver
had succeeded in making a sale of its contemplated
issue of $8,000,000 432% 30-year municipal water
bonds, but legal proceedings interfered.
What a contrast the last two years furnish respecting the distribution of the sales with the years pre


[Vol,. 102.

ceding, becomes evident upon a very cursory examination of our table. Between 1904 and 1913 the
yearly output of municipal bond issues in the South
Atlantic, South Central and Pacific groups rose
from $32,101,623 to $149,721,428, while the North
Atlantic tier of States (comprising New England,
together with New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania) and the North Central division (embracing
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, the two Dakotas and Nebraska and Kansas), though still contributing the
bulk of the year's sales, increased their total only
from $218,653,323 to $253,525,090. In the two
years since 1913, on the other hand, the combined
sales for the South Atlantic division, South Central
division and Pacific division increased only from
$149,721,428 to $153,135,588, while the amount for
the North Atlantic division and North Central division jumped from $253,525,000 to $345,422,405.
With the exception of New York City, most of the
important municipalities put out larger totals of
bonds in 1915 than in 1914 or 1913; particularly is
this true regarding the prominent cities in the North
Atlantic tier and the North Central division. New
York City's public offering was larger in 1915 than
in 1914, being $71,000,000 against $65,000,000, but
the aggregate of all new issues by the city was smaller,
the comparison being between $96,059,936 and $104,194,945; the sales to the sinking fund having been
on a greatly reduced scale. In 1913, however New
'
York City's aggregate new issues were only $84,978,079 and in 1912 $85,901,000. Philadelphia with its
school districts put out a total of $12,360,000 new
bonds in 1915 against $5,625,000 in 1914 and $8,375,000 in 1913. Chicago with its sanitary and park
districts marketed $10,780,600 in 1915 against $3,123,500 in 1914 and $1,719,000 in 1913. Boston
placed $7,377,100 in 1915 against $6,731,000 in 1914
and $8,170,500 in 1913. Baltimore placed $8,800,000 against $8,550,000 and $7,825,000, respectively.
Pittsburgh with its school districts disposed of $6,750,000 against $980,500 and $7,534,500. Cincinnati and its school districts put out $4,535,943 against
$3,283,518 and $4,875,879. Cleveland's contribution was $7,944,000 against $10,092,000 in 1914,
but only $2,854,000 in 1913. Newark, after having
marketed $9,010,000 in 1914, placed only $1,965,000
in 1915, which compares with $1,550,000 in 1913.
We have spoken above of the diminished sales on
the Pacific Coast. Los Angeles, however, disposed
of '4,446,000 in 1915 against only $2,250,000 in 1914
and but $1,750,000 in 1913. Back in 1912 Los
Angeles placed $9,696,000. For San Francisco our
records are incomplete, as we have been unable to
obtain any figures showing the sales "over the
counter." Probably the new issues did not exceed
$5,000,000 against $5,785,500 in 1914, $9,675,100 in
1913 and $8,166,000 for 1912, revealing the diminution following the completion of work in connection
with the Exposition. The same is true with reference
to the State of California, which put on the market
only $5,300,000 new bonds in 1915 against $6,400,000
in 1914 and $12,800,000 in 1913.
As far as the interest rates of the new issues are
concerned, the improvement that occurred in prices
is seen chiefly in the increased amounts of 4% issues
disposed of. Altogether $85,203,091 of 4s were
marketed in 1915, forming 17.16% of the whole,
against only $70,349,598 in 1914, constituting 15.35%
of the whole. The improvement in bond values,
however, did not occur until the latter part of the
year, and the New York City public offering of $71,000,000 in June consisted of 43/2s, as against $65,000,000 43.is put out in April 1914, before the advent
of the European war. The change of New York
City from 434% will account for the diminution of
the amount and proportion of the 434s. This proportion was for 1915 only 9.33% against 16.75% in
1914. For the same reason the proportion of 4s
in the total has increased from 33.33% to 38.74%.

STATE AND CITY SECTION.

MAY, 19 6.]

Nevertheless, the general tendency of interest rates
was but slightly modified by the changes noted.
3% and 33/2% bonds have disappeared, the ruling
rates 'now running from 4% to 5%. The contrast
in this respect with earlier periods continues noteworthy in the extreme. A dozen years ago the prevailing interest rates in municipal bonds were 3@33/
and 4%. The issues at above 4% were relatively
small. Now the great bulk of the whole is at interest rates above 4%. In 1915, for instance, the 43'%
and 5% issues constituted 62.36% of the whole.
The432% rate,as we have seen,is mostin vogue. In
1915$192,310,181 ofthe new issues bore this rate, constituting 38.74% of the whole, as against $152,775,791, or 33.33% of the whole in 1914; $131,651,211, or
34.09% in 1913; $87,009,994 in 1912, or 22.71%; and
only $48,926,761 in 1909, or 14.86%. On the other
hand, if we go only one year further back, to 1908,
we find that the 43's then also made up a great part
of the whole, being $104,272,059, or 33.62%. That
was a period, however, when 4s and 4s were still
the most popular issues; sales of 4s in that year
(1908) reached $123,984,503, or 39.91%. It was
the period when 4s and 43/25 had replaced the old
rates of 3 and 332%, marking the culmination of
the first stage of the advance in interest rates. We
have prepared the following summary to indicate
the aggregate of the bonds put out at the different
interest rates for 1901, for 1906 and for 1914 and
1915. We exclude the New York City sinking fund
takings, as these are usually low rate issues and yet
furnish no criterion of market conditions.

$10,360,000 bonds sold by Philadelphia for "various
municipal purposes," and bonds for the improvement
of harbors and levees, irrigation bonds, street
railway bonds, &c., purposes of not sufficiently
common occurrence to warrant our providing
an extra column for the same in our full-page compilation. A foot-note to the detailed table on the
following page gives the leading items that go to
make up the "miscellaneous" column.
In conclusion, we will reiterate what we have said
in previous years, namely that our figures deal only
with issues of a permanent character-such as, by
their nature, constitute a real addition to the debts
of the municipalities. We rigidly exclude floatingdebt obligations and everything of a temporary
nature, and we are careful also to avoid duplication
or the inclusion of loans that do not belong in the
footings. As the best explanation of our reasons for
excluding floating-debt obligations, we may refer to
the case of this city, which during 1915 issued no less
than $110,177,322 of temporary obligations in anticipation of taxes, and redeemed $118,272,619 of the
same class of obligations, and also issued $44,981,555
of corporate stock notes (a new form of obligation
since 1912), and retired $69,778,247 of the same.
In order that the reader'may know what the grand
aggregate of the sales for the 12 months would be
with all these various items included, we will say
that the total in that event would be over $1,053,000,000. The actual municipal bond sales for the
twelve months within the territorial limits of the
United States were, we have seen, $498,557,993,

UNITED STATES DEBT.

MAY, 1916.1

United States Debt and Its History.
The following is a statement of the debt of the United States past and present. To add to its usefulness we give references to the laws authorizing each of the issues of bonds outstanding to-day.
All our figures, except when otherwise noted, represent the status at the close of business June 30 or the beginning of
business on July 1 of each fiscal year. To.conform to that feature and yet furnish information through which any reader
can always have the data for a correct exhibit of the debt situation at any past or future day, and make an accurate comparison with previous years, we presept,first, the details as they stood at the close of the last fiscal year ending June 30 19151
second, the changes in those details lime June 30 1915 down to May 1 1916; third, the items of interest-bearing debt, &c.,
at the beginning of each fiscal year since July 1 1878;fourth, we publish in the "Chronicle" every month—usually the third
or fourth Saturday—the full detailed Government statement of the debt as reported by the Treasurer on the last day of the
previous month;some months lack of space forces us to delay the publication to a later week.

Note 1.—The annual interest charge is computed upon the amount of outstanding principal at the close of the fiscal
year, except in the ease of
October, for which the total is of that date, and Is exclusive of interest charge on Pacific Railway bonds.
Note 2.—The figures for July 1 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.
Total cash Nov. 1 includes disbursing officers' balances (about $60,000,000), which it was the former
practice to deduct in arriving at the net cash and the
net debt.
a Under the new form of statement issued by the Treasury Department the gold reserve ($152,979,023 21 on May 1) is deducted front the
total
of United States notes outstanding, decreasing to that extent the debt bearing no interest and consequently making a similar
reduction in the balance
of cash available to pay maturing obligations.
Year.

PACIFIC RAILROAD DEBT.—One other class of bonded debt must be referred to which has never been included
in the total of Government debt—we mean the Pacific Railroad subsidy debt. To show the situation of this indebtedness
we have merely to state that the balance unsettled May 1 1916 consisted of principal and interest of the Central Branch of
the Union Pacific RR., $1,600,000 and $2,004,203 23 respectively, or $3,604,203 23 in all.

MUNICIPAL.—At an election held Sept. 1141911 the voters adopted an
amendment to Article XXII. of the constitution increasing the debt limit
of cities of 40,000 or more (which concerns Portland alone) from 5% to
73i% of the assessed valuation. We print Article XXII.below,italicizing
the part added and placing in brackets the words eliminated.
Article XXII. Limitation of Municipal Indebtedness. No city or
town having less than forty thousand inhabitants, according to the last Census
taken by the United States,shall hereafter create any debt or liability which.
singly or in the aggregate, with previous debts or liabilities, shall exceed
five per centum of the last regular valuation of said city or town, provided,
however, that cities having a population of forty thousand or more, according
to the last Census taken by the United States, may create a debt or liability
which, singly or in the aggregate, with previous debts or liabilities, shall mai
seven and one-half per centum of the last regular valuation of said city, that
cities of forty thousand inhabitants or over may, by a vote of their city government, increase the present rate of five per centum by one-fourth of one per
centum in any one municipal year, until, in not less than ten years, the maximum rate of seven and one-half per t.entum is reached, that any city failing to
take the increase in any one municipal year, then the increase for that year is
lost and no increase can be made until the next year, as provided above: and
provided, further, that the adoption of this Article shall not be construed
as applying to any fund received in trust by the said city or town, nor to
any loan for the purpose of renewing existing loans or for war; or to temporary loans to be paid out of money raised by taxation during the year in
which they were (are) made.
EXEMPT FROM TAXATION.—The Legislature of 1909 approved
an Act exempting from taxation all bonds issued after Feb. 1 1909 by the
State or any county, municipality, village, corporation or water district
therein. Banks and trust companies holding such securities are allowed
to deduct the same from the assessment of their shares. See V. 88, P.
1451.•for Act in full.
SAVINGS BANKS' INVESTMENTS—POWERS AND RESTRICTIONS.—The provisions regulating the investments and loans of savings
banks and institutions for savings in the State of Maine are contained in
Sections 23 to 26, inclusive, of Chapter 48 of the Revised Statutes of 1903.
At the 1915 session the law was amended by adding clause h to Subdivision
3d of Section 23 authorizing investment in bonds of certain bridge companies. Clause f of Subdivision 6th of Sec. 23 was also amended so that the
stock of a corporation (other than railroad and water companies) which
sells its property to a voluntary association to carry on the same business
may continue as a legal investment.
SECTION 23. Savings banks and institutions for savings are restricted
to and hereafter may invest their deposits as follows:

The preceding values are simply the aggregate of the inventories of the
various towns in the State. In addition the State taxes at different rates
savings banks and trust companies. Insurance capital, railroads, building
and loan associations, telegraph and telephone companies, parlor car and
express companies. These latter were valued In 1914 at $169,501.181.
*Chapter 169, Laws of 1911, creates a permanent tax commission, one
of whose duties it is to equalize valuations in the year 1912 and every second
year thereafter, so that the same shall represent the "true and market
value" of property. This will account for the great increase in valuations in
1912, not only for the State itself, but for the various civil divisions, as shown
by the returns of the different municipalities on this and following pages.

DEBT LIMITATION.-There is no restriction in the constitution of New
Hampshire upon the debt-making power of the people through the "General
Court," except the following, which is the last clause of Article 5 of Part
Second of that instrument.
Provided, That the General Court shall not authorize any town to loan
or give its money or credit directly or indirectly for the benefit of any
corporation having for Its object a dividend of profits or In any way aid
the same by taking its stocks or bonds.
The above is an amendment to the constitution which was ratified in
1877. The amendment would appear to be intended as a complete estoppel
to municipal loaning of money or credit to railroad and industrial corporations. It is to be noticed, however, that by its terms the restriction does
not specifically mention "cities," the words being "any town."
In addition to the foregoing Is the "Municipal Bond Act of 1895." It
tells in the matter of issuing bonds what a municipal corporation may
do, what it must do, and what it cannot do. The law enacts:
Sec. 1. The term "municipal corporation" means town, city, school district, village district and village precinct. Sec. 2. Bonds issued must be
payable within 20 years, interest semi-annual, not exceeding 6%, may
be payable in gold coin. If made payable in less than 20 years, may be
extend.ed, but never beyond 20 years from time of issue. Sec. 3. Bonds
(except of cities) must be authorized by a vote of two-thirds of all voters
present and voting at an annual meeting of such corporation, or at a special
meeting properly called. &o. (for which see Act). Bonds must be signed
by a majority of the Governing Board, countersigned by Treasurer and
have seal of corporation. Time and place of payment and rate of interest.
&c., may be delegated to Governing Board, Sec. 4. City bonds must be
authorized by resolution of City Council passed by at least two-thirds of
members elected to each branch, taken by yeas and nays, signed by Mayor,
countersigned by Treasurer, seal of city affixed. Place of payment, rate
of interest and sale may be delegated to Treasurer. Sec. 5. Bonds shall be
payable to bearer or to registered holder by name, and must be in form set
out in Act-which see. In case bonds be made subject to call, they must
contain statement to that effect as given In Act. "The validity of any bonds
shall not be affected by any variation from the forms herein prescribed."
Sec. 6. Treasurer to keep a book in which he shall register bonds issued. &o.
Sec. 7. "All bonds purporting to be issued by virtue or In pursuance of this
Act and signed and sealed as hereinbefore provided shall, In favor of bona
fide holders, be conclusively presumed to have been duly and regularly
authorized and Issued in accordance with the provisions herein contained.
and no holder thereof shall be obliged.to see to the existence of the purpose
of the issue or to the regularity of any of the proceedings or to the application of the proceeds. All such bonds shall be negotiable in all respects and
to the same extent as securities negotiable by the law merchant." Sec. 8.
Annual tax must be levied and collected sufficient to pay interest and provide a sinking fund sufficient to pay principal within 20 years. Sec. 9. No
bonds can be issued which shall increase the net debt of corporation to an
amount exceeding 5% of the value of the taxable property therein as last
aoptaised for assessing taxes. To ascertain net debt, all debts must be ineluded except the following, which must be deducted-water debt, 'cash
and other means' in treasury and sinking funds appliceble to payment of
debt so included; "but nothing contained in this section shall prevent the
issue of bonds for the purpose of refunding an equal principal amount of
other bonds of such corporation." Sec. 10. Corporation seal. Sec. 11.
Act to take effect on passage. Approved March 19 1895.
Exceptions have been made to this law from time to time in special instances. such as In the case of $100,000 high-school bonds of the city of
Portsmouth authorized by Chapter 202. Laws of 1903. This chapter
provides that Section 9 of the Municipal Bond Law of 1895 does not apply

[VOL. 102.

TAXATION OF MUNICIPAL BONDS.-Chap. 55 of the Laws of 1907
provides that any city, town, precinct or village district may exempt from
taxation any future issue of its bonds, provided such exemption shall apply
only to bonds owned and held by citizens of said city, town, precinct or
village district. State bonds are subject to taxation unless exempted by
the terms of the Act under which they are issued.
In 1913 the privilege of exemption was extended by Chapter 51 of the
Acts for that year to future bond issues by school districts when held by
residents. Another Act of 1913 (Chapter 112) exempts from taxation all
the bonds or notes of the State or any of its minor civil divisions bearing
not exceeding 5% interest.

There was no direct tax for State purposes levied in either 1903,'04,'05,
'06,'07,'08.'09,'10 or '11. In 1912 the Legislature levied a direct tax of
10 cents on the dollar of the grand list ($10 per $1,000 of assessed value),
one-half payable Nov. 10 1913 and one-half June 10 1914. The 1915
Legislature levied a direct tax of 5 cents on the dollar of the grand list for
the year 1916, no tax being levied for the year 1917. A tax of $13 per
$1,000, however, consisting of a State school tax of $8 and a State highway
tax of $5, was collected and re-distributed to towns on a basis of the number
of schools and road mileage, the State, for the sake of equalizing its distribution, acting as agent in the matter. Prior to 1902 this tax was $10 per $1,000.
The Legislature of 1915 increased the State school tax from $8 to $10, but
this change does not take effect until the assessment of 1916.

DEBT LIMITATIONS.-There appears to be nothing lathe constitution
providing for a general limit to the debt-making power of municipalities.
Whatever in each case the Legislature authorizes, the city, town, county
or other civil division can issue. Of course the purpose of the improvement
must be of a public character. The laws relating to municipal debt limitation which have been passed by the Legislature from time to time are coo.
tamed in Sections 3556. 3557, 3558, 3574 and 3575, Chapter 157, of the
Revised Statutes of 1906. Section 3556, embodying a law passed in 1904,
prohibits a municipality, unless otherwise provided in its chartex, from
borrowing, except for refunding purposes, an amount in excess of five times
its grand list as last taken. An additional amount, not exceeding five times
the grand list, may be borrowed, providing the loan is approved by a twothirds vote. The next section (3557), covering laws passed in 1904 and
1906, provides that In figuring the debt !mit, loans created for water supply,
sewer or electric lights, and temporary loans. may be eliminated. The two
sections follow: [Words in italics were added by Legislature in 1915.]
SECTION 3556. No municipal corporation shall create an Indebtedness,
unless to refund outstanding bonds or orders, to an amount exceeding five
times Its grand list last taken; provided, that it may,by a two-thirds vote by
ballot of the voters present and voting at a meeting called for that purpose, Increase such indebtedness an additional amount not exceeding five
times such grand list. And no municipal corporation shall create an indebtedness to an amount exceeding 10% of its grand list last taken, unless there
is present and voting at a meeting called for that purpose at least 25% of the
legal voters of such municipal corporation. as determined by the check list, and,
in the absence thereof, by the moderator. Bonds or obligations given or created in excess of the limit authorized by this section and contrary to its
provisions shall be void.
SECTION 3557. In determining the amount of municipal indebtedness
permitted by the preceding section, obligations created for current expenses,
for a water supply,sewers or electric lights, and temporary loans created in
anticipation of the collection of taxes and necessary for meeting current
expenses, shall not be taken into account; provided, that no such temporary loan shall be extended beyond the fiscal year for which it is made
and shall not exceed in amount 90% of the amount of taxes levied for such
year; nor shall the provisions of this and the preceding section apply when
the charter of a municipal corporation limits its indebtedness.
Section 3558 covers laws passed in 1872 and relates to railroad subscriptions by towns:
SECTION 3558. A town may aid in the construction of a railroad organized under the general law, by issuing bonds to aid such railroad, by taking capital stock therein, or in such other manner as it directs; but the liability so assumed shall not exceed eight times the grand list of.the town.
Such aid shall be given as provided in this chapter.
The other sections referred to (Sections 3574 and :3575) embrace a law
passed in 1892, and allow towns or villages, not already bonded to an amount
exceeding five times the grand list, to borrow an amount not exceeding three
times the grand list for highway improvement.
SECTION 3574. A town or incorporated village may issue bonds to an
amount not exceeding three times its grand list for the purpose of purchasing road-making apparatus and for building permanent highways within
the limits of such town or village
SECTION 3575. Such town or Incorporated village may vote to issue
such bonds at a meeting of the corporation, duly warned for that purpose,
by a two-thirds majority of all the votes east. ,and may stipulate In such
vote by whom and in what manner the proceeds of such bonds shall be expended; but no town or incorporated village shall Issue such bonds If it is
already bonded to an amount exceeding live times Its grand list.

MAY, 91 6]

It will be noticed that the preceding sections refer in each instance to the
"grand list." To evolve the "grand list" in Vermont, the authorities first
prepare a schedule of all the property, real and personal, of each individual,
with valuations entered at their real value in money, deducting debts owing;
after this is done, the "grand list" Is made up by taking 1% of that amount,
according to Section 494, Chapter 30, of the Revised Statutes of 1906,
which is as follows: "All real and personal estate shall,,except as otherwise
provided, be set in the list at 1% of its value in money on the first day
of April of the year of its appraisal."
The only other general authority granted for the issue of bonds by municipal corporations in Vermont is that given for refunding outstanding bonds
and notes. The sections which grant these powers are Sections 3567 to 3573
inclusive, Chapter 157 of the Revised Statutes of 1906.
SECTION 3567. A town which has outstanding and unpaid orders,
notes, bonds or coupons lawfully issued, may issue other negotiable notes or
bonds to pay or retire the same.
SECTIONS 3568 to 3573, inclusive, give the method of issuing such bonds,
By Section 3572 municipal corporations other than towns have the same
refunding powers granted them that are conferred upon towns.
EXEMPTION FROM TAXATION.-Subdivision XII. of Section 496 of
the Public Statutes of 11906, as amended by Act 23 of the Laws of 1908,
provides that the following municipal securities shall be tax-exempt:
XII. Notes, bonds or orders issued after Feb. 1 1907 as evidences of
obligations for money loaned to a town, village, incorporated school or fire
district, at a rate of interest not exceeding 4% per annum, for the purpose
sewer.or lighting systems,
of constructing, purchasing, or repairing water,
permanent highways, bridges, walks or public buildings, or for the purpose
of refunding a debt contracted for any of the foregoing purposes.
AND RESTRICSAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS-PRIVILEGES approved
Jan. 27
TIONS.-By Act No. 158 of the Vermont Legislature,
Public Statutes of 1906, relat1911, Sections 4615 to 4692, inclusive, of the
were completely revised. Many
ing to savings banks and trust companies,
investments
material changes were made in that part of the law concerning
added which allows
by savings banks an entirely new section having been
new law, which deals
investment in railroad bonds. Section 8 of the 13

of
"State and City

Section' for Nov. 1914. No changes_were made in this section at the 1915
session of the Legislature.
The latest list of railroad bonds which are considered legal investments for
savings banks was issued by the Bank Commissioner on March 1 1916.
This list was printed in full in the "Chronicle" of May 20, 1916. page 1914.

DEBT AND TAX LIMITATIONS.-Taxes in Boston, exclusive of
the State tax, county tax and sums required by law to be raised on account
of the city debt, are limited by Chapter 521 of the Acts of 1910 to $10.55
on every $1,000 of the assessor's valuation of the taxable property therein
for the preceding year, said valuation being first reduced by the amount of
all abatements allowed thereon previous to the thirty-first day of December
in the year preceding said assessment.
Sec. 2, Chap.312, Laws of 1885 (Sec. 3, Chap.27, of the 1902 edition, Revised Statutes), places the debt limitation of the city of Boston at 234% of
the average assessors' valuations of the taxable property for the preceding
three years.
The foregoing limitation is of course exclusive of debts created for water
supply, and further exceptions have been made from year to year by different legislatures authorizing bonds outside of the debt limit for various
purposes, especially enumerated.
It is proper to state that under Chapter 93, Acts of 1891, the city is
authorized to anticipate its authority to borrow money within its debt limit
for any current municipal year.

writing, require such bank or trust company to dispose of such investments,
to substitute other investments of a character in conformity with the requirements of this chapter within one year from the date of receipt of such
notice, and said bank or trust company shall make such disposal or substitution in accordance with such requirement; but if it shall appear on written
request of such bank or trust company that additional time is reasonably
necessary in which to make such disposal or substitution in order to avoid
unnecessary sacrifice, said Commissioner may grant a reasonable extension
of time for the compliance herewith.
"(d) If any investment of the savings or participation department of
any bank or trust company, which has been set apart as provided in (a)
of this clause, shall be in default in payment of either principal or interest,
such investment shall promptly be reduced in its book value approximately

bank shall hold any such investment or investments which are in default in
the payment of interest or dividends thereon, or which, at any time, in the
opinion of the Bank Commissioner, are hazardous or unsafe for the investment of savings deposits, the Bank Commissioner may by notice in writing
require such savings bank to dispose of such investments; and such savings
bank within one year from the receipt of such notice, unless such time shall
be extended by the Commissioner, shall dispose of the same; Provided,
further, said Commissioner shall not require the disposal of investments
aggregating in value in any one year more than two per centum of the
amount of the deposits of such savings bank.
"Defaulted Bonds.-Clause XVIII. If any bonds held by any savings
bank shall be in default either in principal or interest,such investment shall
promptly be reduced in its book value approximately to the market value
of the same."
Clause XIX relates to "loans to officers of savings banks."
Clause XX provides that bonds bought below par shall be entered on the
books and returns of the corporation holding the same at the actual cost
price thereof, and the discounts in the price thereof may, by an equal
annual amortization, be extinguished so as to gradually bring the book value
thereof to par at maturity.
Under Clause XXI it shall not be lawful for any savings bank to borrow
money for the purpose of investing or loaning the same, but this shall not
be so construed as to prevent any savings bank from borrowing for the
purpose of meeting a run or unusual withdrawals by its depositors, and in
no case shall such borrowing exceed 10% of the deposits of any such savings bank.

Under Chapter 106, as amended by Chapter 165. Laws of 1901, the State
collects the tax on every bank, national banking association, trust, insurance, investment and bridge company whose stock Is not exempt from
taxation, and remits the amount so collected to the various city and town
treasurers. The value of such stocks was previously included In the grand
list of each town.

DEBT LIMITATION.-The constitution of Connecticut contains but a
dingle provision restricting the debt-making power. The provision 18
Article 25, adopted as an amendment in 1877. and Is as follows:
No county, city, town, borough or other municipality shall ever subscribe to the capital stock of any railroad corporation, or become the purchaser of the bonds, or make donation to, or loan Its credit In aid of, any
such corporation; but nothing herein contained shall affect the validity of
any bonds or debts Incurred under existing laws, nor be construed to prohibit the General Assembly from authorizing any town or city to protect by
additional appropriations of money or credit any railroad debt contracted
prior to the adoption of this amendment.
The foregoing is explicit and comprehensive, covering every municipality.
There were fotmerly no general restrictions upon the issue of bonds in
the statutes, such restrictions as were provided from time to time being
inserted in enabling Acts and in city charters. As to towns, indeed, Section 1931, Chapter 121. of the Revised Statutes of 1902 granted unlimited

other law, or any bill, shall be submitted to be voted for or against. The
Legislature may provide for the issue of bonds of the State to run for a
period of not exceeding fifty years in lieu of bonds heretofore authorized
but not issued, and shall impose and provide for the collection of a direct
annual tax for the payment of the same as hereinbefore required. When
any sinking fund created under this section shall equal in amount the debt
for which it was created, no further direct tax shall be levied on account of
said sinking fund and the Legislature shall reduce the tax to an amount
equal to the accruing interest on such debt. [An amendment adopted by
the voters on Nov. 2 1909 adds the following to Section 4: "The Legislature
may from time to time alter the rate of interest to be paid upon any State
debt which has been or may be authorized, pursuant to the provisions of this
section, or upon any part of such debt, provided, however, that the rate
of interest shall not be altered upon any part of such debt or upon any bond
or other evidence thereof, which has been or shall be created or issued before such alteration. In case the Legislature increase the rate of Interest
upon any such debt or part thereof, it shall impose and provide for the collection of a direct annual tax to pay and sufficient to pay the increased or
altered interest on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and discharge
the principal of such debt within fifty years from the time of the contracting
thereof, and shall appropriate annually to the sinking fund moneys in
amount sufficient to pay such interest and pay and discharge the principal
of such debt when it shall become due and payable.]

'Sinking Fund, how kept and invested.-SEC 5.-The sinking funds provided for the payment of interest and the extinguishment of the principal
of the debts of the State shall be separately kept and safely Invested, and
neither of them shall be appropriated or used in any manner other than
for the specific purpose for which it shall have been provided. [At the
general election Nov. 2 1915 the voters rejected a proposed amendment to
Section 4 of Art. VII. of the Constitution providing that"In case any annual tax heretofore imposed for the payment of a debt
authorized by vote of the people under the Constitution will, if continued,
provide for the payment of the interest on such debt as it falls due and also
the payment of the principal of such debt before it becomes due, the Legislature may amend the law by reducing the rate of such tax, provided that
the same shall not be reduced below a sum sufficient to pay the interest on
such debt as it falls due,and also the principal ofsuch debt when it becomes
due."

DEBT LIMITATION-CITIES, COUNTIES, TOWNS AND VIL-

L AG ES.-The constitution of 1894 puts a general and uniform limit to the
Power of counties and cities of the State to contract and put out their obligations, leaving the Legislature to fix the debt-making power of villages
and towns only. These provisions are found In Art. 8, Sec. 10. We give
that section in full below. The separation into paragraphs and the figures
In parentheses which number and begin the paragraphs are our own, we
having inserted them so that those who need to refer to any particular
portion can the more readily find the part desired.
(1) No county, city, town or village shall hereafter give airy money of
property, or loan its money or credit to or in aid of any individual, association or corporation, or become directly or indirectly the owner of stock
in, or bonds of, any association or corporation; nor shall any such county.
city, town or village be allowed to incur any indebtedness except for
county, city, town or village purposes. This section shall not prevent
such county, city, town or village from making such provision for the aid
or support of its poor as may be authorized by law.
(2) No county or city shall be allowed to become indebted for any purpose or In any manner to an amount which, including existing indebtedness,
shall exceed 10% of the assessed valuation of the real estate of such county
or city subject to taxation as it appeared by the assessment rolls of said
County or city on the last assessment for State or county taxes prior to the
incurring of such indebtedness; and all indebtedness In excess of such limitation, except such as may now exist, shall be absolutely void, except as
herein otherwise provided.
(3) No county or city whose present indebtedness exceeds 10% of the
assessed valuation of its real estate subject to taxation shall be allowed to
become indebted in any further amount until such indebtedness shall be
reduced within such limit.
(4) This section shall not be construed to prevent the issuing of certificates
of indebtedness or revenue bonds issued in anticipation of the collection of
taxes for amounts actually contained, or to be contained in the taxes for
the year when such certificates or revenue bonds are issued and payable
out of such taxes.
(5) Nor shall this section be construed to prevent the issue of bonds to
provide for the supply of water; but the term of the bonds issued to providfor the supply of water shall not exceed twenty years, and a sinking fund shall
be created on the issuing of the said bonds for their redemption, by raising
annually a sum which will produce an amount equal to the sum of the principal and interest of said bonds at their maturity.
At the 1909 election a very important constitutional amendment, with
reference to the exclusion of debt incurred for rapid transit and dock purposes by New York City, and with reference to the exclusion after Jan. 1
1910 of water bonds issued by third class cities, was ratified by the voters.
The amendment referred to changes sub-division (6), making it read as
follows, the new parts being printed in italics.
(6) All certificates of indebtedness or revenue bonds issued in anticipation of the collection of taxes, which are not retired within five years after
their date of issue, and bonds issued to provide for the supply of water, and
any debt hereafter incurred by any portion or part of a city, if there shall be
any such debt, shall be included in ascertaining the power of the city to
become otherwise indebted; except that debts incurred by the City of New
York after the first day of January, nineteen hundred and four,and debts
Incurred by any city of the second class after the first day of January.
nineteen hundred and eight, and debts incurred by any city of the third class
after the first day of January, nineteen hundred and ten, to provide for the
supply of water, shall not be so included; and except further that any debt
hereafter incurred by the City of New York for a public improvement owned
or to be owned by the city which yields to the city current net revenue, after
making any necessary allowance for repairs and maintenance for which the
city is liable, in excess of the interest on said debt and of the annual installments
necessary for its amortization, may be excluded in ascertaining the power of said
city to become otherwtse indebted, provided that a sinking fund for its amortization shall have been established and maintained and that the indebtedness shall
not be so excluded during any period of time when the revenue aforesaid shall
not be sufficient to equal the said interest and amortization installments, and
except further that any indetedness heretofore incurred by the city of New
York for any rapid transit or dock investment may be so excluded proportionately to the extent to which the current net revenue received by said city
therefrom shall meet the interest and amortization installments thereof, Provided that any increase in the debt-incurring power of the city of New York
which shall result from the exclusion of debts heretofore incurred shall be available only for the acquisition or construction of properties to be used for rapid
transit or dock purposes. The Legislature shall prescribe the method by which
and conditions under which the amount of any debt to be so exand the ter
cluded shall be determined, and no such debt shall be excluded except in accordance with the determination so prescribed. The Legislature may in its discretion confer appropriate Jurisdiction on the Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court in the First Judicial Department for the purpose of determining the
amount of any debt to be so excluded. No indebtedness of a city valid at the
time of its inception shall thereafter oecome invalid by reason of the operation
of any of the provisions of this section
(7) Whenever hereafter the boundaries of any city shall become the same
as those of a county, the power of the county to become Indebted shall
cease, but the debt of the county at that time existing shall not be included
as part of the city debt. At the November 1899 election an amendment
to the constitution was adopted changing this paragraph to read as follows:
Whenever the boundaries of any city are the same as those of a county,
or when any city shall Include within its boundaries more than one county,
the power of any county wholly included within such city to become indebted shall cease, but the debt of the county heretofore existing shall not,
for the purposes of this section. be reckoned as a part of the city debt.

(8) The amount hereafter to be raised by tax for county or city purpos
In any county containing a city of over 100,000 inhabitants, or any such
city of this State, In addition to providing for the principal and interest
of existing debt, shall not in the aggregate exceed In any one year 2% of the
assessed valuation of the real and personal estate of such county or city, to
be ascertained as prescribed in this section in respect to county or city debt.
By the terms of the foregoing section, Paragraph (1) every "County.
City, Town or Village" is included in the prohibition against (1) loaning
"its money or credit," (2) in becoming "directly or Indirectly the owner of
stock in or bonds of any association or corporation," and (3) in "Incurring
any indebtedness except for County. City, Town or Village purposes."
Most of the other paragraphs include only counties and cities.
In May 1886 the New York Court of Appeals decided at the end of a litigation begun in July 1885 that the sinking fund was not a part of the city debt
within the meaning of the above provision of the constitution limiting the
creation of debt to 10% of the assessed valuation of the real estate.
Towns and villages are not limited in their debt-making power by the
constitution. Those municipalities are governed by general or special
statutes.
The 1895 Legislature passed an Act "for the protection of bona fide purchasers and holders of coupon bonds and of municipal corporations against
misfeasance, malfeasance or negligence of public officers." The full text of
this law was published in the "Chronicle" of June 8 1895. V. 60, P. 1023.
HOME RULE BILL.-On April 10 1913 a bill was signed (given in full
in V.96, p.1108), conferring on all cities full powers of local self-government.
BILL PERMITTING LEGALIZING OF MUNICIPAL BONDS BY
SUPREME CO URT.-The 1911 Legislature passed a bill amending the general municipal law by providing that proceedings heretofore or hereafter
taken by municipal corporations in relation to bond issues, pursuant to
statute authorizing such procedure, may be legalized and confirmed by the
Supreme Court instead of requiring legislative enactments. This bill was
given in full in V. 93. p. 1619. See also V. 94, P. 316. The Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court at the July 1913 term declared the Act to
be constitutional. V. 97. p. 211.
EXEMPTION FROM TAXATION.-Sec, 8, Article Two, Chapter 24.
Consol. Laws of 1909(p.403) provides that "all bonds of a municipal corporation, until payable, shall be exempt from taxation for town, county,
municipal or State purposes." Chapter 24 here mentioned provides that
the term 'municipal corporation' as used In this chapter Includes only a
county, town, city and village." This differs from the definition given in
the General Corporation Law (Chapter 23, Consolidated Laws of 1909),
which in Section 3 of Article 1 says that "A 'municipal corporation' includes
a county, town, school district, village and city and any other territorial
division of the State established by law with powers of local government."
TAX ON SECURED DEBTS.-In July 1911 the Legislature passed a bill
providing for a tax of 34 of 1% on bonds and other obligations secured by
property located outside the State (and also on unsecured debt), and for
exemption of the same from the annual tax on personal property. The
1915 Legislature suspended the operation of the law referred to until
May 1 1915 and also passed a bill increasing the registration fee on secured
of 1% and
to
debts registered between May 1 and Nov. 1 1915 from
limiting the period of exemption to five years. The definition of secured
debts was extended at this time so as to include'such proportion of a bond.
&c., secured by mortgage or deed of trust recorded in -the State of New
York, and covering also property outside the State, as the value of the
property outside the State bears to the value of the entire mortgaged Koperty. As this law expired by limitation on Nov. 11915, the 1916 Legislature passed a bill reviving the same until Jan. 1 1917 and also providing
that bona fide bond dealers may be permitted to deduct their debt. from
the value of such securities as are held by them for sale. V. 102, p. 1553.
TAXATION OF MORTGAGES.-Mortgages now are not subject to taxation of any kind, the only charge being a recording tax of 3. of 1%. [For
opinion of Attorney-General on attempt to evade this tax, see V.95. p. 93.]
A bill was passed at the 1914 session but vetoed by the Governor, extending the mortgage recording tax law so that this tax could be paid upon the
full value of mortgages when part of the real property was outside the State;
and exempting to their full value bonds secured by such mortgage.
CONDEMNATION OF PRIVATE PROPERTY FOR PUBLIC USE.
In Nov. 1911 a proposed constitutional amendment relating to the taking
of private property for public use was defeated. V. 93, p. 1679. A similar
amendment permitting municipalities to condemn property in excess of the
amount actually needed for public parks and streets wets ratified at the general election in Nov. 1913(V. 97, p. 1837).
TAX LAW RELATIVE TO INVESTMENTS IN STATE BONDS BY
SAVINGS BANKS, TRUST COMPANIES AND INSURANCE COMPAN I ES.-Section 190 of the Tax Law (Chapter 60, Consolidated Laws)
provides that every corporation, company or association required by Section 187. 188 or 189 of this Chapter,to pay to the State an annual tar equal to
a percentage of its gross premiums, capital stock, surplus, undivided
profits or undivided earnings for the privilege of exercising its corporate
franchise, or carrying on its business In such corporate or organized capacity, which shall own any State bonds, shall have credited to it annually
to apply upon or in lieu of the payment of such tax,an amount equal to 1%
of the par value of such bonds bearing interest at a rate not exceeding 3%
annually, and owned aryl held in the name of such corporation, company or
association. The text of this bill was given in V. 84. p. 1216.
At the 1913 session a law was passed proposing to increase the credit to
1;4% on all holdings of bonds at not exceeding 3% interest and allowing
a credit of ;•6 of 1% on all bonds bearing snore than 3% interest and not
exceeding 4% interest. This law WM repealed, however, at the special
session which convened June 16 1913. V. 96, p. 1784.
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS-POWER AND RESTRICTIONS.
-The general banking law,known as Chap.2 of the Consolidated Laws, was
completely revised by the Legislature of 1914, but no material change was
made in that part of the law regulating investment by savings banks, except that the section dealing with this subject is now numbered 239,instead
of 146, and its provisions apply to the sums credited to the guaranty fund
as well as to savings bank deposits. The Legislature in 1915 passed an Act
authorizing banks to invest in certain Judgments against the State and in
contracts entered into by the special examiner and appraiser of' canal
lands. (V. 100, p. 1525). Another amendment passed in 1915 adds to
Paragraph A of subdivision 7, of Section 239 of the Banking Law, the
words which we have given in italics. The purpose of the amendment is
to remove any question as to the legality of the refunding bonds issued by
the New York Central RR.since the last consolidation with the Lake Shore
& Mich. Southern By. and other roade. In 1916 the Legislature passed an
amendment to sub-division 8 of Section 239 relating .o promissory notes in
which investments; may be made. This amendment also adds to the banking law a new paragraph (Sub-division 10) and allows the investment by
savings banks In the bonds of the land bank of the State of New York. See
V. 102, p. 1825. We give Section 239 in full below as it now stands:
Sec. 239. A savings bank may invest the moneys deposited therein, the
sums credited to the guaranty fund thereof and the income derived therefrom, in the following property and securities, and no others,and subject
to the following restrictions:
1. The stocks or bonds or interest-hearing notes or obligations of the
United States, or those for which the faith of tile United States Is pledged
to provide for the payment of the interest and principal, including the
bonds of the District of Columbia. [The State Attorney-General ruled that
this sub-division does not authorize savings banks to invest in the land purchase
bonds of the Philippine Islands, V. 78, P. 298.]
2. The stocks or bonds or interest-bearing obligations of this State
issued pursuant to the authority of any law of the State.
3. The stocks, bonds or interest-bearing obligations of any State of
the United States upon which there is no default and upon which there has
been no default for more than 90 days, provided that within 10 years immediately preceding the investment such State has not been in default for
more than 90 days in the payment of any part, principal or interest, of any
debt duly authorized by the Legislature of such State to be contracted by
such State since Jan. 11878.
(On July 24 1909 the Attorney-General rendered ah opinion to the effect
that bonds of the State of Oklahoma are legal investments for savings banks
under the terms of tills sub-division. The right of the banks to invest in
these bonds was questioned for the reason that Oklahoma had not existed
as a State for ten years. The Attorney-General, however, was of the opinion
that this does not prevent its bonds from fulfilling the requirements of the
law so long as there has been no default within ten years on any of the
obligations. V. 89, p. 298.1
[On Aug. 11 1909 the Attorney-General held that Port Commission 5%
bonds of the State of Louisiana "maturing at any time between July 1 1924
and July 1 1959" were not legal investments for New York State savings
banks. The Attorney-General mentioned as a ground of objection to the

In 1903 the assessment of real estate was made on the basis of about real
value; 1903 and subsequent values, therefore, are greatly in excess of those
for previous years, and consequently the tax rate is much lower.
(Under a law passed by the 1911 Legislature, the collection of taxes takes
place semi-annually instead of annually, as heretofore. V. 93, P. 63.1
(State Supreme Court early in 1916 decided against the city in its
efforts to have value of bank shares excluded from personal tax valuation
in levying direct State tax. See "Chronicle" of Mar. 4 1916, page 906.)
PAR VALUE OF BONDS.—Under the provisions of the city charter,
registered bonds may be issued in denominations of 510 or any multiple
thereof.
EXEMPTION FROM TAXATION.—Section 8, Article 1, General
Municipal Law, Consolidated Laws of 1909. provides that "all bonds of a
municipal corporation, until payable, shall be exempt from taxation for
town, county, municipal or State purposes."
DEBT LIMIT.—At the general election In Nov. 1909 the voters passed on
a constitutional amendment which permits the city in ascertaining Its
for any rapid transit
borrowing capacity, to exclude bonds heretofore issued'
or dock investment, as well as bonds hereafter Issued for a public improvement which provides a revenue in excess of the interest and amortization
charges. The rapid transit and dock bonds may be excluded only in proportion to the extent to which the current net revenues received from these
improvements shall meet the interest and amortization charges. See the
amendment in full under general remarks for New York State.
ISSUANCE OF SERIAL BONDS AUTIIORIZED.—Chapter 309 of
the Laws of 1915, approved April 14, authorizes the City of New York to
issue "serial" bonds. The Act amends Sections 169, 189, 206 and 229 of
the Greater New York charter. Chapter 308, approved April 16, amends
Section 182 of the Charter so as to provide that in inviting proposals for
