MUNICIPAL BOND SALES IN 1914.
In reviewing the municipal bond sales for the calendar year 1914, we are able to repeat with increased
emphasis the statement made in reviewing the bond
sales for the previous calendar year, namely that
the aggregate of the bond disposals is the very largest
on record. This may seem a remarkable statement
in view of the extraordinary financial conditions
which developed upon the outbreak of war in Europe,
and which for over four months kept the Stock Exchange closed, occasioned resort to the issuance of
emergency currency and clearing-house certificates
in enormous amounts and brought financial undertakings generally to almost a complete standstill for
the time being.
The explanation of the apparent anomaly is found
in the circumstance that the record for the year in
the matter of the magnitude of the sales was made in
the seven months from January to July, inclusive—
that is, before the war came in as a disturbing influence. In these seven months municipal securities
commanded increasing favor and municipalities took
advantage of the opportunity to provide liberal supplies of new issues—putting forth, indeed, new obligations on a scale never before witnessed. The reason why it was possible to find a wider and larger
market for State and municipal securities was that
railroad and industrial securities were, as has been
many times pointed out by us, in disfavor, largely
because of hostile Governmental and legislative
policies, a condition which during 1914 became intensified because of the growing depression in trade
and the tremendous contraction in railroad revenues.




No. 2605.

It is also to be remarked that municipal bonds
had a further advantage in the eyes of investors in
that they are free from the Federal income tax imposed under the tariff law of October 1913. This
tax introduced a new element in calculations regarding investment purchases of all classes of securities. Up to the end of July the aggregate of
new bond disposals had reached no less than $384,334,150, which compared with $403,246,518 for the
full twelve months of 1913 and $386,551,828 for the
twelve months of 1912.
As stated in our "State and City" Supplement for
November 21 last, the test of the market (after the
poor success attending the placing of new issues in
1913) came in January 1914, when New York State
offered $51,000,000 432% 50-year canal and highway
bonds. This aroused animated bidding and the
whole amount went to a syndicate consisting of
William A. Read dz Co. and Kuhn, Loeb Sc Co. at
106.077—a basis of 4.208%. The result contrasted
sharply with the experience of the State the previous
June, when a resort was had to short-term issues and
$27,000,000 notes, dates1 June 10 1913, maturing in'
February 1914, were sold on an interest basis as high
as 4.87%. The new $51,000,000 432% 50-year
bonds went in part to take up these $27,000,000 notes.
Another and still more conclusive test of market conditions came in April, when the same banking syndicate took $65,000,000 431% 50-year corporate
stock of New York City at 101.45, an interest basis
of about 4.18%. The previous year, in May, the
city had been forced to issue 432% bonds and had obtained only a trifle over par (100.159) for $45,000,000
50-year bonds at that rate. The day after that sale
some of the bonds had actually sold on the Stock
Exchange a trifle below par.
Following the outbreak of war, with the complete
derangement of financial affairs which resulted, municipal bond disposals for a time fell to very small
proportions, the total for August being only $10,332,193,for September $13,378,480 and for October $15,126,967. After that, however, the situation decidedly improved, and in November an aggregate of
$21,691,126 of new issues was placed, while in December the total ran up to $29,211,479. As further
indicating the unfavorable state of things which existed for a time, we may note that in August $10,350,000 of new municipal issues were offered without success, in September $8,100,000 failed to find takers
and in October $7,550,000.
For the full twelve months of 1914 the aggregate
of the sales of new issues amounts to the huge figure
of $474,074,395. This compares with $403,246,518

4

STATE AND CITY SECTION.

for 1913, $386,551,828 for 1912 and $320,036,181
-for 1910. In the four years these figures show, it
will be observed, an addition of almost 50%—the rise
being from $320,000,000 to
74,000,000. It is
proper to say that in the latter we do not include the
$100,000,000 6% New York City obligations which
J. P. Morgan & Co. and Kuhn, Loeb & Co. took in
September and offered for subscription at par and
accrued interest, these being short-term issues. The
syndicate mentioned came to the rescue of the city
in order to enable it to meet its maturities for large
amounts falling due in the near future. The fact
that the interest rate on the bonds had to be placed
at 6% illustrates the conditions which prevailed.
The new obligations quickly sold at a premium. Very
naturally, this sale, with its high interest rate, affected unfavorably other New York City securities,
and report had it that in October some of the 41/0
placed by the city the previous April had sold down
to 93. By the end of the year, however, they had
got back to par.
Thefurther addition to the bond sales in 1914,it isimportant to note,did not,unlike the experience of other
years, come from the newer sections of the country,
where the most development may ordinarily be supposed to be going on. In previous reviews we have
expressed the opinion that as yet the large aggregates of municipal bond sales furnished no substantial ground for uneasiness—that in the main the extensive new issues indicated normal outlays in behalf
of the proper development of our cities and towns.
As supporting that inference, we pointed out that it
vas in the newer parts of the country that the increase in the output of new issues was especially pronounced. The experience of 1914, however, serves
very materially to modify this conclusion, for the
further addition occurred almost entirely in the North
Atlantic tier of States. To emphasize that point,
we reprint here a table given many times before by
us (but with the 1914 figures added), and which
shows the distribution of the bond sales for the last
eleven years among the different geographical divisions of the country.

The foregoing table should be closely scrutinized
and the significance of the results disclosed not underestimated. The newer sections, taking them as a
whole, actually put out a smaller amount of new
municipal obligations in 1914 than in the year preceding, while on the other hand the older sections
added enornously to their annual aggregate. Between 1904 and 1913 the yearly out put of municipal
bond issues in the South Atlantic division, the South
Central division and the Pacific division increased



[vol.. no.

from $32,101,623 to $149,721,428, but 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 1914, on the other
hand, the combined sales for the South Atlantic
division, the South Central division and the Western
division fell from $149,721,428 to $136,365,925,
while the amount for the North Atlantic division and
the North Central division jumped from $253,525,090 to $337,708,470.
For the North Atlantic division alone the amount
ran up from $164,152,029 to $228,783,498. It is
proper to say, however, that the New York State
offering of $51,000,000 432% 50-year canal and highway bonds, to which reference has already been made,
explains a good part of the increase here. Elsewhere
throughout the country the offerings of State securities were on a greatly reduced scale and much below
the total of the previous year. It is also to be noted
that New York City (not counting the $100,000,000
6% short-term issues put out in September through a
syndicate managed by J. P. Morgan & Co. and Kuhn,
Loeb & Co.) offered publicly $65,000,000 of corporate stock in 1914, as against only $45,000,000 in the
previous year. Quite generally the larger cities
placed smaller totals of new issues than in the previous year. Newark is an exception, having disposed of $9,926,000, as against only $1,550,000 in
1913 and $1,163,000 for 1912. Jersey City put out
no new issues, against $1,386,000 in 1913. Baltimore is another exception, having supplied the market with $8,550,000, against $7,825,000 in 1913 and
$5,000,000 in 1912; Cleveland placed $9,592,000,
against $2,854,000, and Providence, $3,075,000,
against $300,000. Boston disposed of $6,731,000,
against $8,170,000; Philadelphia, with the school district, $5,625,000,against $8,375,000; Chicago and its
sanitary and park districts, $3,123,500, against
$1,719,000;Cincinnati,$3,183,518,against $4,875,879;
Pittsburgh, $980,500, against $4,534,500; Hartford,
$1,889,000,against $1,000,000; St. Louis put out no
bonds in either year. Out on the Pacific Coast, San
Francisco placed $5,785,500, against $9,675,100,
and Los Angeles $2,250,000, against $1,750,000.
In the matter of interest rates, the tendency of
previous years towards higher rates was, of course,
further emphasized and intensified. 3% and 332%
bonds have entirely disappeared and 4% bonds form
a constantly diminishing proportion of the whole.
The contrast in this respect, with former periods is
becoming each year more noteworthy and more pronounced. 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%
and comparatively nothing below 4%. Of late 43.1%
bonds have come somewhat in vogue, $76,766,250
of these having been marketed in 1914, forming
16.19% of the whole, of which New York City alone,
however, contributed $65,000,000. In 1914 only
$71,522,070, or 15.09%, of 4s were put out, against
$101,191,665 in 1912, $126,924,229 in 1911 and
$162,306,553 in 1909. In this last-mentioned year
the 4s constituted 47.82% of the whole, in 1914 only
15.09%.

MAY, 1915.]

The 432% rate, however, is the one which is now
most in vogue. In 1914 $152,775,791 of the new
issues bore this rate, constituting 32.23% of the
whole, as against $131,651,211, or 32.65% of the
whole, in 1913, $87,009,994 in 1912, or 22.51%, and
only $48,926,761 in 1909, or 14.41%. 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 33.22%. 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 39.51%. It was the period
when 4s and 4s had replaced the old rates of 3and
33/2%, marking the culmination of the first stage of
the advance in interest rates. Since then there has
been a further advance in interest rates under which
the prominence at least of the 4% rate has greatly
diminished, it having given place, as already pointed
out, to 4s and 5s. Of 5s in the late year $107,192,604 were placed, these constituting 22.61% of the
whole. 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 1913 and 1914. In this instance we exclude the
New York City sinking fund takings, as these are
usually 3% and 4% issues and furnish no criterion of
market conditions.

In 1901, it will be seen, out of a total of $140,185,499 bonds placed, no less than $116,240,993, or
82.92% of the whole, consisted of 3s, 3s and 4s,
the 3s forming much the larger part ,they comprising $68,693,268, or nearly one-half of the year's disposals. In 1914, on the other hand, with a total of
sales raised to $458,379,450, no 3s were floated and
2s. The 4s aggregated $70,349,only $246,500 of 33/
598, but formed only 15.35% of the whole. The
43is aggregated $76,766,250, or 16.75%, the 4s
$152,775,791, or 33.33%, and the 5s $107,192,604,
or 23.39%. In other words, no less than $407,084,243 of the year's issues, or 88.82% of the whole,
were 4s, 41
/
ts, 4s and 5s.
To complete our analysis of the bond disposals of
1914 we furnish below a comparison of the new
bond issues according to the purposes for which
they were used or created. The bulk of the new
issues each year is for five main purposes, namely
water, streets and bridges, sewerage and drainage,
schools and school-buildings and public buildings
generally. The total under the five heads combined
amounts for 1914 to $342,637,049, which compares
with $280,837,160 in 1913, $251,465,656 in 1912,
$282,960,420 in 1911, $224,268,652 in 1910, $235,358,294 in 1909, $226,434,801 in 1908, $167,659,934
in 1907 and $136,034,202 in 1906.
After apportioning the amounts under the different heads an aggregate of $94,917,462 remains for
1914, it will be seen, under the designation "miscellaneous" and the amounts for other years are also
large. In explanation it should be said that this
item comprises mainly bonds issued for special pur-




poses, like the canal and canal terminal bonds of
New York State (of which $30,000,000 were put out.
in 1914), the $8,263,053 dock and $11,172,472 rapid
transit bonds of this city, and bonds for the improvement of harbors and levees, irrigation bonds, street
railway bonds, reclamation bonds, Ste., purposes of
not sufficiently common occurrence to warrant our
providing an extra column for the same in our fullpage 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 1914 issued no less
than $159,570,645 of temporary obligations in anticipation of taxes ($85,827,240 being taken abroad)
and redeemed $138,883,748 of the same class of
obligations, and also issued $141,351,769 of corporate
stock notes (a new form of obligation), and retired
$144,223,151 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 $1,063,000,000. The actual municipal bond sales for the
twelve months within the territory limits of the
United States were, we have seen, $474,074,395,
the temporary loans reached $384,609,542; sales of
permanent securities by Canadian municipalities (including $50,000,000 Dominion of Canada stock and
$36,200,000 Provincial loans) were $177,856,680;
general fund bonds of New York City $23,500,000
and general fund bonds of Baltimore $300,000, besides which Porto Rico sold $2,955,000 bonds, giving
a grand total of $1,063,295,617. In this we make
no allowance whatever for the temporary loans known
as"trea,sury bills" placed by Canadian provinces and
municipalities, since reliable information regarding
these is almost impossible to obtain.
A full page tabular presentation of the sales of a
permanent character within the limits of the United
States for the late year appears on the following page.
In giving this compilation, we are continuing a
practice begun by us with the bond transactions of
1901. The table presents the details of the sales in
very elaborate form, showing the disposals for each
State and for each leading geographical group or
division, and indicates also the purposes for which
the bonds were issued and the amounts put out at
the several rates of interest, besides apportioning the
issues among the different civil divisions by whose
authority they were created-whether State, county,
municipality or school district.

UNITED STATES DEBT.

MAY, 1915.1

United

Staks Deb/ 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, and likewise,so far as we -deem it needful,
citations from those laws.
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 present,first, the details as they stood at the close of the last fiscal year ending June 30 1914:
second, the changes in those details since June 30 1914 down to May 11915; 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 first
or second 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.
With these data at his command, it would seem as if any inquirer could satisfy himself fully with reference to every
point which might become of importance for him to know respecting the United States debt.

In a message to Congress under date of February 8 1895 (published in the "Chronicle" February 9 1895, page 244), President Cleveland stated In substance that in pursuance of Section 3700 of the Revised Statutes,the details of an arrangement have this day been concluded whereby bonds authorized under the Act of July 14 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 562,315,400, are 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 now held in our reserve
will so restore such reserve as to make It amount to something more than $100,000,000. Such a premium is to be allowed to the Government upon
the bonds as to fix the rate of interest upon the amount of gold realized at 3j% per annum. At least one-half of the gold to be obtained Is to be
supplied from abroad. Section 3700 of the revised Statutes Is as follows:
"Sao. 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 rates
and upon such terms as he may deem most advantageous to the public interest."
For a construction of the "Refunding Act of 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
in time of maturity, same in rate of interest and time of interest payments. Consequently both issues are called the "Loan of 1925," of which there
are outstanding $118,489,900."
"LOAN OF 1904."—(Column 6.) The Act of January 14 1875 authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to use any surplus revenues from time to
time in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, and to issue, sell, dispose of, at not less than par In coin, either of the descriptions of bonds of the United
States described In the Act of July 14 1870,for the purpose of redeeming on and after January 1 1879. In coin, at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of the United States at New York, the outstanding legal-tender notes when presented in sums of not less than fifty dollars. Under this authorization, and for the purposes mentioned, there were issued in Feb. 1894, payable in 10 years, $50,000.000 of 5%s and In Nov. 1894 there were Issued
$50,000,000 more for similar bonds for same purpose. The bonds matured Feb. 2 1904, and the amount outstanding May 1 ($13,050) is Included on

"CERTIFICATES OF INDEBTEDNESS" OF 1908, Authorized by Act of June 13 1898. $15,436,500 of the certificates were
issued In denominations of $50, payable to bearer; dated Nov. 20 1907; Interest at the rate of 5% per annum,
payable with the principal sum on and after Nov. 20 1908.
on presentation of the certificates for redemption. For further details see circular of Secretary
Cortelyou in "Chronicle." Nov. 23 1907, page 1311—
the certificates have all been retired.

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. It is not necessary to repeat all those figures. We have determined on this occasion to begin our statement with
1878, as that year antedates all of the issues now outstanding, and yet carries the record sufficiently far back to show the
nature and extent of the Government securities when the refunding operations of that period began. It has the advantage,
too, of giving separate and distinct each issue of bonds now outstanding. The statement is subjoined.

the part added and placing in brackets the words eliminated.

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

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 1912 at $154,765,810.
*Chapter 169, Laws of 191'1, 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

Act to take effect on passage. Approved March 19 1895.
Exceptions have been made to this law from time to time in special intances, 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




[VOL. 100.

provides that Section 9 of the Municipal Bond Law of 1895 does not apply
in this instance.
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.
SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS-PRIVILEGES AND RESTRICTIONS.-The savings bank investment laws of New Hampshire were completely revised and materially altered in many respects at the Legislative
session of 1901. In 1907 clauses 8, 14, 18, 19 and 20 were amended. The
Legislature of 1909 passed an Act adding clause 22 and amending clause 17.
In 1915 an amendment was passed permitting savings banks to invest not
exceeding 10% of their deposits in loonds and notes of any public utility
corporation organized under the laws of New Hampshire and doing business
In that State and which has earned and paid dividends of not less than
annually for five years preceding such investment. This amendment 5%
was
printed in the "Chronicle" of May 8, page 1611. The law itself is given in
full on page 9 of the "State and City Section" for Nov. 1914.
INVESTMENT OF TRUST FUNDS.-(1895) Chapter 71, Sec. 1.
Trustees and guardians shall be authorized to invest funds in their hands
in the bonds or direct obligations of any county, city, town, school, fire
or water district in New England, when the net debt of said municipality
does not exceed five per cent of the last assessment of taxes for the purpose
of taxation. The term "net debt" shall be construed to denote the indebtedness of any municipality, omitting debt created for supplying the
inhabitants with water and deducting the amount of sinking funds available for the payment of the indebtedness of the municipality.

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.

LIMITATIONS.
DEBT
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,
prohlblts a municipality, unless otherwise provided in its charter, 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 imit, loans created for water supply,
sewer or electric lights, and temporary loans, may be eliminated. The two
sections follow:
SECTION 3556.-Limit.-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. Bonds or obligations given or ereated in excess of the limit authorized by this section shall be void.
SECTION 3557.-Determination.-In determining the amount of municipal indebtedness permitted by the preceding section, obligations created for a water supply, sewers or electric lights, and temporary loans
created in an.icipation 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. The two sections read as
follows:
SECTION 3574. A town or inccuporated 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 cast, 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 five times its grand list.
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
nclusive, Chapter 157 of the Revised Statutes of 1906. Section 3567 is
as follows:
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 orlretire 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 which are conferred upon towns.
EXEMPTION FROM TAXATION.-Subdivision XII. of Section 496 of
the Public Statutes of 1906, 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
of constructing, purchasing, or repairing water, sewer.or lighting systems,
permanent highways, bridges, walks or public buildings, or for the purpose
of refunding a debt contracted for any of the foregoing purposes.
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS-PRIVILEGES AND RESTRICTIONS.-By Act No. 158 of the Vermont Legislature, approved Jan. 27
1911, Sections 4615 to 4692, inclusive, of the Public Statutes of 1906, relating to savings banks and trust companies, were completely revised. Many
material changes were made in that part of the law concerning investments
by savings banks, an entirely new section having been added which allows
investment in railroad bonds. Section 8 of the new law, which deals
with investments, is given in full on pages 12 and 13 of the "State and City
Section" for Nov. 1914. No changes_were made in this section at the 1915
session of the Legislature.

the Commonwealth and the balance is apportioned to cities and towns. Of
the total of $15,537,920.09, $962,809.49 was assessed upon street railway
companies, $2,984,287.37 upon other public service corporations, $4,081,548.50 upon domestic business corporations. $1.830,643.50 savings banks,

CONDEMNATION OF PRIVATE PROPERTY ADJACENT TO IM
PROVEMENTS.-An amendment adopted November 7 1911 adds
the following to Article 10 of part 1 of the constitution: The Legislature may by special Acts, for the purpose of laying out, widening or relocating highways or streets, authorize the taking in fee by the Commonwealth, or by a county, city or town, of more land and property than are
needed for the actual construction of such highway or street; provided,
however, that the land and property authorized to be taken are specified
in the Act and are no more in extent than would be sufficient for suitable
building lots on both sides of such highway or street; and after so much of
the land or property has been appropriated for such highway or street as is
needed therefor, may authorize the sale of the remainder for value with or
without suitable restrictions. See V. 93, p. 1547.
DEBT LIMITATIONS.-There seems to be no provision in the constitution of Massachusetts limiting the power of the Legislature to create
State indebtedness, or limiting its power to authorize municipal indebtedness. Statutes general and special have, however, been passed on this
subject with respect to cities and towns.
The latest legislation regarding the matter is known as Chapter 719 of the
Laws of 1913. approved May 26 1913. The limit of indebtedness for cities
and towns (excepting Boston) is fixed by Sections 6 and 12 of this law.
These sections follow:
Section 6. Cities and towns may incur debt, outside the limit of indebtedness prescribed in this Act, for the following purposes and payable within
the periods hereinafter specified:
(1) For temporary loans under the provisions of Sections 3, 4 or 9,
one year.
(2) For establishing or purchasing a system for supplying the inhabitants
of a city or town with water, or for the purchase of land for the protection
of a water system, or for acquiring water rights, 30 Years.
(3) For the extension of water mains and for water departmental equipment, 5 years.
(4) For establishing, purchasing, extending or enlarging a gas or electric
lighting plant within the limits of a city or town, 20 years; but the Indebtedness so incurred shall be limited to an amount not exceeding in a town
5% and in a city 234% of the last prneding assessed valuation of such
town or city.
(5) For acquiring land for the purposes of a public playground, as specified in Section 19 of Chapter 28 of the Revised Laws and amendments
thereof, 30 years; but the indebtedness so incurred shall be limited to an
amount not exceeding A of 1% of the last preceding assessed valuation
of the city or town.
Debts for all of the purposes mentioned in this section snail be payable
within the periods above specified from the date of the first issue of bonds
or notes on account thereof, and may be incurred in accordance with the
provisions of existing law, except in so far as the same are inconsistent
with the provisions cf this Act. All other debts hereafter incurred by a city
or town shall be reckoned in determining its limit of indebtedness,and debts
authorized under the provisions of this section, except for temporary loans,
may be incurred only by a vote of two-thirds of the voters present and
voting, or of two-thirds of all the members of a city council or other governing body,taken by yeas and nays, and subject to the approval of the mayor,
if such approval is required by the charter of the city.
Section 12. Except as otherwise authorized by Section 6 of this Act
or by Chapter 634 of the Acts of the year 1913, a city shall not authorize

16

MASSACHUSETTS-DEBT OF STATE.

Indebtedness to an amount exceeding 2M %,and a town shall not authorize
indebtedness to an amount exceeding 3%,on the average of the assessors'
valuations of the taxable property for the three preceding calendar years
the valuations being first reduced by the amount of all abatements allowed
thereon previous to the last day of December of the preceding calendar year.
Chapter 634 of the Laws of 1913, referred to above, provides for the payment of outstanding demand notes and the restoration of trust funds.
Cities and towns which have demand notes outstanding or which have expended town or trust funds for general expenses, are required to raise in the
tax levy of 1914 an amount necessary to redeem the notes and restore the
funds, or if to do this would impose too great a burden, they may borrow
for the purpose for a period not to exceed 15 years.
Section 5 of Chapter 719 specifies for just what purposes debts may be
incurred within the limit fixed by Section 12,and states also for what periods
such debt shall run. Sections 3,4 and 9 authorize the issuance of temporary
loans, payable In not more than one year from date, in anticipation of the
sale of bonds or notes already voted, in anticipation of the revenue of the
financial year,for the payment of any land damages or expenses of altering
grade crossings or any proportion of expense of constructing a highway in
anticipation of reimbursement by the Commonwealth. Section 8 prohibits
the sale of bonds, notes or certificates of indebtedness at less than par. However, under Section 10 temporary loans issued under Sections 3, 4 and 9
may be negotiated at a discount. Section 13 prohibits the creation of
further sinking funds, but such funds established prior to the passage of
the Act must be continued until the debt for which they were established
has matured. Hereafter notes shall not be made payable on demand
(Section 14) and the payment of all debt,except that incurred under Sections 3; 4 and 9, must be made by such annual installments as will extinguish the same at maturity.
Section 1 distinctly excepts Boston from the general provisions of the Act
in the following words: "Section 1. The provisions of this Act shall not,
except as is hereinafter specified, apply to the city of Boston but said city
shall remain subject to the provisions of all general and special laws applicable to it." The specific reference to Boston is in Sect. 18, which follows:
"Section 18. Sections 53 of Part I of Chapter 490 of the Acts of 1909, as
amended by Chapter 521 of the Acts of 1910, is hereby further amended by
striking out the said section and inserting in place thereof the following—
Section 53. The taxes assessed in the city of Bcston on property, exclusive
of the State tax and other amounts assessed upon the city by the Commonwealth, the county tax and sums required by law to be raised on account of
the city debt, shall not in any year exceed $10 55 on every $1,000 of the
average of the assessors' valuation of the taxable property therein for
the preceding three years, such valuation being first reduced by the amount
of all abatements allowed thereon previous to Dec. 31 in the year preceding said assessment. Any order or appropriation requiring a larger
assessment than is herein limited shall be void.'
Sections 13 and 14 relating to sinking funds and the payment of future
loans took effect upon the passage of the Act. The other sections referred
to above became effective Jan. 1 1914. We have room here to give
only this brief outline of Chapter 719. The law in full will be found in the
"Chronicle" of Aug. 23 1913, pages 486 to 488 inclusive.
EXEMPTION FROM TAXATION.—Clause 15, Sec. 5,Part I, Chapter
490, of the Acts of 1909, provides that the following securities shall be exempt from taxation: "Bonds or certificates of indebtedness of the Commonwealth issued since the first day of January in the year 1906, and bonds,
notes and certificates of indebtedness of any county, fire district, water
supply district, city or town in the Commonwealth which may be issued
on or after the first day of May in the year 1908, stating on their face that
they are exempt from taxation in Massachusetts."
TAXATION OF MORTGAGES.—Chapter 761, Laws of 1914, given in
full in the "Chronicle" of July 18, page 212, provides that a bond secured
by mortgage on tangible property located within or without the Commonwealth which is subject to taxation wherever located, and which is there
actually taxed, shall be exempt from taxation within the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts upon registration of the same with the Tax Commissioner
and upon the payment to him of a fee of $3 per $1,000 annually.
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS—POWER AND RESTRICTIONS.
—Investment by savings banks in Massachusetts is governed by Chap. 690
of the Acts of 1908, referred to in V. 87, p. 257, and in an editorial article
on pages 5 and 6 of the "State and City Supplement" for May 29 1909. The
law was further amended in 1909 and 1912 (see "Chronicle" of May 25 1912,
"State and City Department"), and Clause "Fourteenth" was added in
1913, the law at present reading as follows:
SECTION 68. Deposits and the income derived therefrom shall be
invested only as follows:
FIRST—First Mortgages of Real Estate.—In first mortgages of real estate
ocated in this Commonwealth not to exceed 60% of the value of such real
estate; but not more than 70% of the whole amount of deposits shall be so
Invested. If a loan is made on unimproved and unproductive real estate,
the amount loaned thereon shall not exceed 40% of the value of such real
estate. (For conditions that must be observed in making such loans see
law in full in V. 87, P. 257.1
SECOND—Public Funds.—(a) In the public funds of the United States
or of any of the New England States.
(b) In the bonds or notes of a county, city or town of this Commonwealth.
(c) In the bonds or notes of an incorporated district in this Commonwealth whose net indebtedness does not exceed 5% of the last preceding
valuation of the property therein for the assessment of taxes.
(d) In the bonds or notes of any city of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,

[Opinion of Attorney-General Regarding Legality of N. Y. N. II. & 11. RR.
Bonds as Savings Bank Investments.1--Attorney-General James M. Swift
rendered an opinion in Feb. 1911 with reference to the Act passed by
the Legislature in June 1910 to validate bonds and stocks of the New
York New Haven do Hartford RR. Co.. and for the purpose of determining
whether or not the assets were sufficient to show the road a solvent corporation. As stated in V. 92, p. 462, the report of the Commission appointed under the Act referred to was filed with the Legislature on Feb. 17
1911. The Act stated that "nothing herein contained shall authorize the
investment by savings banks in the securities aforesaid unless they are otherwise legal investments under the provisions of Chapter 590, Acts of 1909."
and the Attorney-General finds that "no matter what the finding of the
Commission appointed under the Act with reference to assets and liabilities
was, it would not in and of itself make any change in the standing of securities for savings bank investments." See V. 92, p. 541.

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 clay 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.

STATE AND MUNICIPAL INDEBTEDNESS LIMITATIONS.-Under Section 13, Article IV of the State constitution, the General Assembly
has no power to incur State debt to an amount exceeding $50,000 without
the consent of the people, except in time of war or of insurrection or invasion. In no rase is the Assembly to pledge the faith of the State for the
payment of obligations of others without the approval of the people. In
reference to city debts, there is nothing In the constitution of Rhode Island
limiting the amount of such obligations. The following, howeyer, are two
sections taken from Title 8. Chapter 46 (page 221) of the Revised Statutes
of the State of 1909. Since 1878 these provisions have been in force, and
consequently 3% of the taxable property has been the limit of the power
of each town (which Includes city) to create debt.
SECTION 20.-"The outstanding notes, bonds and contracts of towns
shall be paid and be fulfilled according to the tenor thereof, and all publics
works now authorized to be prosecuted shall be prosecuted and all Indebtedness now authorized to be Incurred on account thereof may be Incurred
according to the tenor of the authority thereof."
SECTION 21.-"No town shall, without special statutory authority therefor.
Incur any debt In excess of three per centum of the taxable property of
such town, including the indebtedness of such town on the tenth day of
April, one thousand eight hundred seventy-eight; but the giving of a new
note or bond for a pre-existing debt, or for money borrowed and applied
to the payment of such pre-existing debt, is excepted from the provisions
of this section, and the amount of any sinking fund shall be deducted in
computing such indebtedness."
TAXATION OF BONDS.-Bonds or notes of the State are not subject to
taxation. Loans of municipalities, we were advised Deo.121911 by J. F.
Parker. Sec. of State, are taxable.
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS.-At the
1911 session of the Legislature the laws concerning Rhode Island savings
bank investments were completely revised and materially altered in many
respects. In 1912 and 1914 further amendments were made. See V. 94.
p. 1397, and V. 98, p. 1629. Investment in public securities is regulated
by Clause I, a digest of which follows:

New Hampshire, with a population of over 2,500, whose bonds are a
direct obligation on all the taxable property of such district, and whose net
debt does not exceed 5% of such valuation, and which bonds are provided
for by a sinking fund or serial retirement.
(c) Bonds or notes of any city of the United States other than the New
England States and New York State which has not defaulted during ten

of the last preceding assessed valuation, or the bonds and obligations of
any incorporated school district within such city, payable primarily from

same, in which case said Commissioner may give directions in writing requiring the disposal of such securities, and when such directions are given,
such securities shall be disposed of within one year from the date of such notice, unless an extension of time is granted by said Commissioner.
"(b) Bonds which are legal investments under the foregoing provisions
of this chapter and are secured by a mortgage which provides for payments
to a sinking fund shall cease to be legal investments if the corporation issuing
such bonds shall at any time fail to make such payments. And such bonds
shall not be legal investments under the provisions of this section so long
as any such payment is in arrears and unpaid.
"(c) If a corporation is formed by a consolidation or merger of two or
•more corporations, and it is desired to ascertain the legality of the bonds
of the successor corporation for investment of savings deposits, the earnings
and income of the several predecessor and constituent corporations shall be
consolidated, and the aggregate corporate income so ascertained shall be
regarded as that of one and the same continuous corporation represented
by the successor corporation; or, if a corporation shall acquire by purchase
the property and franchises of another corporation, and a bond issue is
made for the financing of the transaction, the legality of the bonds so issued
with the other bonds of the purchasing corporation shall be ascertained by
the same process as in the case of a consolidation or merger above provided, subject to the rules applying to the several classes of corporations
described under the preceding clauses of this chapter.
'(d) If the net earnings and income of any corporation whose bonds
have been a legal investment under the provisions of this chapter shall fall
somewhat below the requirements of this chapter for a period of not exceeding two successive fiscal years, and in the following year such earnings
and income shall be restored to the required amount,said corporation, after
such restoration of income, shall be regarded as having complied with said
requirements during said period, but during the period of failure to earn
the required amount no investment shall be made in the bonds of a corporation so situated.
"(e) Serial maturities of bonds shall be considered equivalent to sinking fund provisions.
"Of the Segregation of Assets.—Clause XVI. (a) Every bank or trust
company which maintains a savings or participation department, or solicits
or receives deposits as savings or on participation, shall invest all deposits
therein, or so received, according to the requirements of this chapter, and
such deposits, invested or uninvested, shall be set apart for the exclusive
protection of the deposits in said savings or participation department, and
shall not be liable for, or be used to pay, any other obligation or liability
of such bank or trust company until after the payment of all the deposits
in said savings or participation department.
"(b) The foregoing provision as to the character of the investment of savings or participation deposits shall not render illegal any investments of such
deposits made prior to May 26 1908, nor compel the change of such investments for those prescribed by this chapter, except as hereinafter provided.
"(c) If any bank or trust company shall continue to hold such investments of non-legal character made prior to May 26 1908 which, in the
opinion of the Bank Commissioner, are hazardous and unsafe for the investment of savings deposits, said Commissioner may, by giving notice in
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)




31

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
to the market value of the same.
"(e) The uninvested funds of the savings or participation department
of any such bank or trust company shall be kept in a distinct deposit account or accounts or demand certificates of deposit in such manner that the
same can be readily identified as clearly belonging to the segregated assets
of such savings or participation deposits.
"(f) Every bank or trust company shall keep an accurate account
wherein shall appear a complete list of the assets set apart for the exclusive protection of savings or participation deposits held by it, showing the
par value, book value, and, periodically,as often as a report is made to the
Bank Commissioner shall enter in such account the fair market value of
each of the investments of said assets.
"(g) The Bank Commissioner in requiring the substitution of investments under the provisions of (c) of this clause shall not require changes or
substitutions aggregating in any one year more than two per centum of
the savings or participation deposits of any such trust company at the
time of the passage of this Act.
"Of Savings Bank investments Made Before the Passage of This
Act.—Clause XVII. (a) The provisions of this chapter shall not render
illegal any investments held by any savings bank prior to May 26 1908,
nor require the change of any such investment for those herein prescribed
for the investment of savings deposits; Provided, however, if any savings
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.

HISTORY OF DEBT.-The early historical details of New York State's
debt from 1817 to 1894 will be found in the "State and City Supplement"
of April 1893. page 41.
During a period of eleven years ending in 1893 the State debt was paid
at the average of $1,000,000 per year, and practically wiped out.
In Nov. 1895 the voters approved a bond issue of $9,000,000, for the
purpose of enlarging and improving the Erie, Oswego and
canals. These bonds were all issued and have since been Champlain
redeemed.
In 1903 a further issue of $101,000,000 canal bonds was authorized,
these bonds have all been sold. [A bill, signed by the Governor Apriland
17
1912, authorizes the State Comptroller to issue canal improvement bonds
made payable in foreign currency. V. 94, p. 1131. At the 1905 election a constitutional amendment was adopted giving authority to create an
aggregate debt of $50.000,000 for highway purposes, and all of these bonds
have been sold. The question of issuing an additional
bonds
for highways received a favorable vote in Nov. 1912, $50,000,000
and of these $15,000,000 have been issued. In Nov. 1909 the voters approved the
issuance
of $7,000,000 bonds for the Cayuga and Seneca Canals, all of which have
been sold. In 1910 the voters approved the issuance of $2,500,000 bonds,
all of which have been sold, for the acquisition of the Palisades
Interstate
Park. Under the provisions of Chap. 569. Laws of 1909, as amended
by
Chap. 394, Laws of 1911, $950,000 bonds were authorized for a State
Reservation at Saratoga Springs. These bonds were all issued,
but
$285,000 have been redeemed, leaving outstanding April 1 1915 $665,000.
Chap. 252, Laws of 1914, authorizes the sale of 3235,000 bonds or certificates for 10 years at not exceeding 5% int. Comptroller's temporary
certificates have been issued for $100,000 in anticipation of the
of
said bonds. A proposition to issue $19,800,000 barge canal terminalsale
was adopted Nov. 7 1911, and of these $10,000,000 have been sold. bonds
The
State's bonded debt on March 31 1915 was $186,165,660 and the sinking
fund $36,867,533.81. Loans outstanding March 31 1915 were

also outstanding Sept. 30 1914. * In addition, there were
outstanding
Sept. 30 1913 $27,000,000 notes issued in anticipaton of the sale of bonds.
TAX VALUATION, TAX RATE, &c.-Large increase in values for
1904, due mainly to New York City's real estate being
assessed about full
value. The constitutional amendment adopted in 1905 permits
interest and
sinking fund requirements to be met out of funds in the Treasury
of by means of a direct tax as heretofore. No direct State levy, instead
therefore,
was made in 1906 to 1910, revenue being entirely raised
through the opera-

tion of mortgage, stock transfer, liquor, inheritance and corporation taxes.
In July 1911, however, the Legislature again imposed a direct tax of 6-10
of a mill on each dollar of real and personal property. In 1912 the Legislature made provision for a direct tax levy of one mill. At the 1913 session.
in order to avoid the levying of a direct tax, a bill was introduced to permit
the transfer to the general fund of a part of the sinking fund. This measure, however,failed to pass both houses. V.96,P. 1435. On Sept. 17 1913,
while the Legislature was in extra session, a bill was passed authorizing the
levy of a direct tax of 5805-10000 of a mill. In 1914 a bill was passed providing for a direct tax of three hundred and fifty-five thousandths of a mill
but this was vetoed by Governor Glynn. V. 98, p. 1404. At the 1915
session of the Legislature provision was made for the levy of a
direct tax
of one and seven-tenths mills. V. 100, p. 1525.

QUEENS COUNTY.
County seat is Jamaica. A large
part of the old County of Queens is
now included in the Greater New
York, and a law changing the
name of that portion of the old county outside of Greater New York to
Nassau County went into effect Jan. 1
1899. The amount of outstanding
bonds of this county which will be
chargeable to the City of New York
has been finally determined by the
Supreme Court (V.71, p.875). Under this decision the City of NewYork
was made liable for $3.796,032.11 of
the old debt of Queens County as It
stood at the date of division, and the
remaining $1,011,967.89 became an
obligation of Nassau County. Instead of apportioning certain bonds
to New York City and to Nassau
County, the debt and interest is not
divided. New York City pays
78.952414973 of the principal and int.
as it becomes due and Nassau Co.
21.047585027. The Comptroller of
New York City acts as agent in the
payment of the debt.
The statement below shows the
obligations of the old County of
Queens which remained outstanding
on Apr. 30 1915.

NEW JERSEY-CITIES AND TOWNS.

Borough Law of 1897, Comp. Stat. 1910, p. 226. This Act limits the
bonded debt of boroughs to 15% of the assessed valuation. Townships
are governed by the General Township Law of 1899, Comp. Stat. of 1910,
p. 5567, which limits the bonded debt of towaships to 10% of the assessed
valuation. There are few villages in New Jersey, most of the former
villages being now incorporated under some other form, but the remaining
villages are mostly governed by the General Village Act of 1891, Conip.
Stat. of 1910, p. 5727, which is known as The Winton Act.
The Act of Mar. 26 1896, appearing in the Comp. Stat, under the heading
of "Municipal Corporations," Sec. 20 and 21, p. 3462, provided that
thereafter no borough or village should be incorporated except by special
Act of the Legislature. While this Act operated to prevent the incorporation of boroughs and villages by referendum proceedings under previous
general laws. it does not prevent subsequent action by the Legislature
permitting such incorporation. It is, however, a declaration by the Legislature of its policy to incorporate municiaplities by special Act, which policy
has been pursued as to all municipalities since that date, except towns.
This course has many advantages, the principal one of which is, that as to
municipalities so incorporated there can be no question as to their corporate existence, name, and boundaries, which are fixed by the special
Act. When the Legislature desires to incorporate a township, borough
or village, it now does so by a special Act fixing the name and boundaries
of the new municipality, and the new municipality thereupon becomes
subject to the general laws affecting the class to which it belongs. In
the case of new cities, the situation is more complicated, because there
is no general Act relating to all cities and furnishing a form of government
therefor which takes effect without acceptance by the voters or governing
body of the city. Therefore, when the Legislature incorporates a new
city, as it cannot by the Act of incorporation provide for its government,
but can only fix its name and boundaries, the new city would be without
any frame of government unless it should proceed to accept one of the
general referendum charters. Cities under 12,000 population are governed
by the Act of March 24 1897, Comp.Stat. of 1910, p. 1297, unless they have
a special charter or have adopted a referendum charter. This is the course
generally pursued, and frequently the Legislature has simultaneously incorporated a new city and passed a new referendum charter ostensibly for
all cities, but which was intended to be, and was, accepted only by the new
city. The effect of this is practically the same as if a special charter had
been passed for the new city.
In 1911 the Legislature adopted what. is generally known as the Walsh
Act (Chap. 221, Laws 1911), providing for the commission form of government in cities. This Act, (which only applies to municipalities accepting
It at an election) provides that it may be so accepted by "cities, towns, boroughs and other municipalities." This left it uncertain whether on the one
hand the Act applied to counties and school districts, or whether, on the
other hand, it could be accepted by villages and townships. This doubt
was set at rest by an amendment adopted by the Legislature at the session
of 1912, which amended the title and body of the Act so as to make it applicable to cities, towns, townships, boroughs, villages and municipalities
governed by boards of commissioners and improvement commissions, and
to these only, so that it is now clear that counties and school districts are
not affected. The Act was further amended and supplemented by P. L.
1913, pp. 197, 323 (permitting bonds to be issued without an election),
581, 836, 916 (validating elections on adoption of the Act), P. L. 1914,
pp. 170 (providing for preferential voting) and 253 (granting home rule),
and P. L. 1915, pp. 92, 145 (validating elections for adoption of Act), 404,
622 (providing for recall). Of the larger municipalities in New Jersey, the
cities of Trenton, Passaic, Atlantic City, Jersey City, Long Branch,
Hoboken and Bayonne, have accepted the Walsh Act, and while submitted
to the voters of a number of other cities, such as Camden, Paterson, Elizabeth and Bayonne, it has been rejected by them. The Walsh Act limited
the net bonded debt of cities accepting it to 10% of the assessed valuation of
property therein, unless authorized by the voters at a epecial election. The
amendment of 1912 provides that such net bonded debt shall be determined
by deducting from the gross bonded debt all water bonds, cash and investments held in sinking funds, and all bonds the payment of which is provided
for in the current tax levy, and makes the limit on debt without an election
15% instead of 10% (see "Chronicle" of Jan. 18 1913, page 171).
The home rule amendment of 1914 (known as the "Hennessy Act")
attempted to constitute municipalities adopting the Walsh Act a special
class of municipalities, and provided that they should not be subject
to any laws of the State "except laws applicable to all municipalities
of this State other than counties and school districts." The effect of
this amendment was to create considerable doubt as to the powers possessed by commission-governed municipalities. In Delaware River
Transportation Co. v. City of Trenton,the Hennessy Act was held unconstitutional, upon the ground that it was special legislation, by a decision of
Mr. Justice Trenchard of the Supreme Court of New Jersey. rendered on
May 22 1914. Justice Trenchard's opinion was affirmed by the Court of
Errors and Appeals on July 10 1914. .(See "Chronicle" of May 16 1914,
page 1499; May 23 1914, page 1629; May 30 1914, page 1654, and July 18
1914, page 212.)
Under the County Act of 1846, as amended, counties are governed by
large Boards of Chosen Freeholders. each Freeholder being elected by the
municipality, or portion thereof, that he represents. By P. L. 1912, p. 619
(a revision of the so-called Strong Act of 1902)(P. L. 1902, p. 65), counties
accepting it at an election have a small board elected at large, consisting
of 9, 7, 5 or 3 members, according to population. This Act was amended
by P. L. 1913, p. 834, and P. L. 1914, p. 423, P. L. 1912, p. 228, is a similar referendum Act applicable only to counties of the first class (population
200,000). Several counties have already accepted the Strong Act, and as the
small board elected at large represents one of the principles of the so-called
conunission form of government, it has been stated in the press that these
counties have accepted the "commission form of government," thus creating
the false impression that they had accepted the Walsh Act.
School Districts are governed by the General School Law of 1903, Comp.
Stat. of 1910, p. 4724, which provides that every incorporated city, town,
township and borough shall be a school district. City school districts are
governed by Art. VI of this law, which practically makes the Board of
Education a branch of the City Government. and authorizes the issuance
of bonds of the City for school purposes to an amount not exceeding 5%
of the assessed valuation of the City. School districts in towns, townships
and boroughs are governed by the provisions of Art. VII of this law, which
provides for the issuance of bonds of such school districts (which are not
obligations of the town. township or borough) as the legal voters may
direct, without any limitation. The School Law also provides that the
voters of any city school district may accept the provisions of Article VII
of the School Law, and he governed like a town, township or borough
district, and, on the other hand, town, township and borough school
districts may accept the provisions of Article VI of the School Law and
be governed like a city district. This has been done chiefly by large
towns, which found it cumbersome to submit all Important matters as to
taxation and bond issues to meetings of the voters, and the towns of
Wesy Hoboken, Kearny, Montclair and Irvington, and the townships of
Weehawken and North Bergen, have accepted and are governed by Art. VI.
So far as we are aware, no city has accepted the provisions of Art. VII.
The proceedings for the issuance of bonds of all school districts under Art.
VII must be submitted to the Attorney-General for his approval before the
bonds are issued.
SALE OF BONDS.-By the Act of Apr. 9th 1910, P. L. 1910, P. 347,
Comp.Stat. of 1910. p. 3685, all municipal bonds must be sold for not less
than par at public sale on ten days' notice, unless the statute under which
they are issued expressly authorizes private sale. By an amendment te
this Act, passed in 1911 (P. L. 1911. p. 218), the notice must be given
by two insertions in a local paper. and private sale to the sinking fund
is allowed. The School Law of 1903, the Borough Law of 1897 and the
Funding Act of March 23 1899, Comp. Stat. of 1910. p. 3681 (which
last Act as amended applies to all municipalities except school districts
and counties), expressly authorize private sale, as does the Grade Crossing
Act of April 1 1912 and the County Funding Act of the same date which
last Act authorizes the funding of floating debt of counties existing Jan. 1
1912. A supplement to the School Law, P. L. 1911, 13. 514, prohibits the
Issuance of school bonds except after public sale on ten days' notice, unless
previously offered to and rejected by the School Fund. This Act also requires all School Bonds to be signed, sealed, delivered and paid for in the
State of New Jersey. such payment to be made by cash or certified check
to the order of the custodian of school moneys, who is the Treasurer of the
city, town, township or borough, as the case may be.
TAX EXEMPTION.-By Sec. 3 of the General Tax Act of 1903, COMAStat. of 1910. p. 5075, bonds and other securities of the United States
and of the State of New Jersey or any County, taxing district or school
district of the State are exempt from taxation. This makes all New Jersey
municipal bonds tax-exempt in that State.
LIMITATION OF TAX RATE.-Chap. 116, Laws of 1906,limiting the
tax rate, was repealed by Chapter 9. Laws of 1914.

SAVINGS BANKS' INVESTMENTS-POWERS AND RESTRIC
TIONS.-The savings bank law of New Jersey was completely revised by
the State Legislature of 1906, without, however, changing in any essential
respects the investment provisions. In 1913 the law was further amended
to permit investment in certain bonds secured by first mortgage on terminal
or dock property. See V.96. p. 1169. We give below in full the investment
sections of the new law.

county.
V. In the bonds of any city or county of any other State of the Union
