History.

following is a statement of the debt of the United States past and present. To add to its usefulness we give refer¬
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

V;,
when otherwise noted, represent the status at the close of business June 30 or the beginning of
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 com¬
parison with previous years, we present, first, the details as they stood at the close of the last fiscal year
ending June 30 1913;
secojid, the changes in those details since June 30 1913 down to Nov. 1 1913; 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.

The foregoing shows that the Government debt on June 30
1913 was made up of (1) interest-bearing debt,
$965,706,610
(2) debt on which interest has ceased, $1,659,550 26, of (3) debt bearing no interest,
$375,681,584 40, making total gross
debt, $1,343,047,744 66; subtracting from the total the net cash balance in the Treasury
($314,489,641 47) at the same date
(June 30 1913), we have the net debt as it stood at the close of the last fiscal
year, $1,028,558,103 19.
Since the close" of
June the changes in the various items of the
interest-hearing debt have included the issuing of $1,116,880 Postal Savings
Bonds, making the interest-bearing debt at this time $966,823,490.
For later and future details of the debt, see the same as issued
every month in the "Chronicle," the first or a later Saturday.
We now add, first, references to and citations from the laws which are
the authority for the debt as it stands
to-day; second,
the two tables on the next
page, which exhibit all the particulars of the total debt of the United States on June 30 of each
year
from 1878 to 1913, and on Nov. 1 1913;
third, the Pacific Railroad bonds, which are never included in the debt statements.

"FUNDED LOAN OF 1891" (Column 1) 4 Hs, continued at
2%.
The bonds of this issue were Issued in exchange for the 4
funded loan of
1891 by agreement between the Secretary of the
Treasury and the holders, and were made redeemable at pleasure of the Government.
Amount
Issued $25,364,500, but May 18 1900 all were called for
redemption on Aug. 18 1900, when Interest ceased.
"CONSOLS OF 1930. —Column 13.)
Bonds (2% payable at the pleasure of the Government after 30
years) authorized in "Act to define and
fix the standard of value," &c. (for copy of Act see
"Chronicle," March 3 1900, page 411), for the purpose of refunding (1)
outstanding United States
bonds bearing interest at 5% payable Feb. 1
1904; (2) bonds bearing Interest at 4% payable July 1 1907; and (3) bonds
bearing Interest at 3% payable
August 1 1908 (the "ten-twenties of 1898").
For details of arrangement see Secretary Gage's circular with reference to the
operations for carrying out
the refunding provisions of the bill in "Chronicle," March
17 1900, page 509.
Of these 2%s there were outstanding Nov. 1 1913,
$646,250,150.
"LOAN OF 1908-1918."—(Column 11.)
The bonds included under this head are an Issue of $198,792,660 3%s,
They were authorized by Act of
June 13 1898 and are known as the "War Loan."
The law provided that in
allotting said bonds the Individual subscriptions of the lowest amount
must be first allotted.
On the day the Act was signed a
Treasury circular was issued (see circular In "Chronicle" of June 18 1898, page 1168, Inviting
subscriptions for 32 days, from June 13 to July 14, for the amount of bonds
stated, in both coupon and registered form, coupon in denominations of
$20, $100, $500 and $1,000, andjregistered in denominations of same
amounts, and also in $5,000 and $10,000, dated August 1 1898, redeemable in
coin at the pleasure of the United States after ten
years from date of issue, and due and payable August 1
1918.
See circular for further details.
Subscriptions reached the amount of $1,325,000,000.
The amount now
outstanding (Nov. 1 1913) is $63,945,460.
"FUNDED LOAN OF 1907".(Column (3) 4s.
The Act of July 14 1870, authorized the issue of 1,000 million
dollars of bonds at 4%, payable In
coin of the present standard value at the
pleasure of the United States after thirty years; these bonds to be exempt from all taxes or duties of the
United
States, as well as from taxation in any form by or under State,
municipal or local authority.
Bonds to be sold at not less than par in coin, and proceeds
applied to redemption of outstanding 5-20s, par for par.
Outstanding (Nov. 1 1913), $691,250, included in debt upon which interest has ceased.
"REFUNDING CERTIFICATES" (Column 4).—Act of
February 26 1879 authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to issue in exchange for lawful
money of the United States certificates of deposit of the denomination of
ten dollars, bearing Interest at the rate of 4%,and convertible at
any time,
with accrued int..into the 4% bonds described in the
Refunding Act; the money so received to be applied only to the payment of the bonds bear¬
ing Interest at a rate not less than 5%.
On March 12 1879 the issue of these certificates and their
exchange into 4% bonds were
authorized,
the certificates were to draw 4% interest from
April 1 1879 and were convertible in sums of $50 or its multiples. The amount issued at the close of the
fiscal
year (June 30 1879) was $39,308,110, but they had been converted
so rapidly
that there were outstanding at that date only $12,848,210.
On Oct. 31
1879 the entire authorize 1 amount had been
reached, the maximum of the issue being $40,012,750.
Of these there were still outstanding on Nov,
1 1913 a total of $13,410, Included In debt
bearing no interest.
"LOAN OF 1925."—(Column 9.)
Sales of bonds Included under this
designation were effected (1) In February 1895 to the ambunt of $62,315,400,
and (2) in February 1896 to the amount of
$100,000,000.
In a message to Congress under date of February 8
1895 (published in the "Chronicle" Feb¬
ruary 9 1895, .page 244), President Cleveland stated In
substance that in pursuance of Section 3700 of the Revised Statutes, the details of an
arrange¬
ment 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% f)er annum, to the amount of $62,315,400, are to be issued for the purchase of
gold coin amount¬
ing 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 3
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:
*
■
•
.

•

.

"Sec. 3700.
The Secretary'Of the Treasury may purchase coin
with any of the bonds or notes of the United States authorized
by law at such 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."

The laws relating to municipal debt limi¬

Revised Statutes of 1906.

must be of a

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,

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 cre¬
ated in excess of the limit authorized by this section shall be void.
SECTION 3557.—Determination .—In determining the amount of mu¬
nicipal indebtedness permitted by the preceding section, obligations cre¬

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 subscrip¬

SECTION 3558.

DEBT LIMITATIONS.—There seems to be no
provision in the consti¬
of Massachusetts
limiting the power of the Legislature to create

tution

State indebtedness, or
limiting its power to authorize municipal indebted¬
ness.
Statutes general and special have, however, been
passed on this
suhiect 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, outisde the limit of indebt¬
edness

prescribed in this Act, for the following

the periods hereinafter
specified:

(1)
one

For

purposes

and payable within

temporary loans under the provisions of Sections 3, 4

or

9,

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 equip¬

ment, 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 indebt¬
edness

incurred shall be limited to an amount not
exceeding in a town
5% and in a city 2M% of the last preceding assessed valuation of such
or city.
.
(5) For acquiring land for the purposes of a public playground, as speci¬
fied 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 M of
1% of the iast 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 previsions cf this Act.
All other debts hereafter incurred oy 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
vctmg, or of two-thirds of all the members of a city council or other govern¬
ing 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
indebtedness to an amount exceeding 2 M %. 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 oeing 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 pay¬
ment of outstanding demand notes and the restoration of trust funds.
Cities and towns which have demand notes outstanding or which have ex¬
pended 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 cf 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 cf reimbursement by the Commonwealth.
Section 8 prohibits
the sale of bonds, notes or certificates of indebtedness at less than par.
How- ever, 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 Sec¬
tions 3, 4 and 9, must be made by such annual installments as will extin¬
guish 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 femain subject to the provisions of all general and special laws appli¬
cable to it."
The specific reference to Boston is in Sect. 18, which we quote
so

The Act stated that "nothing herein contained shall authorize the
investment by savings banks in the securities aforesaid unless
they are other¬

provisions of Chapter 590, Acts of 1909,"
and the Attorney-General finds that "no

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, Re¬
vised "Statutes), places the debt limitation of the city Of Boston at 2 M % 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 differ¬
ent
legislatures authorizing bonds outside of the debt limit for various
purposes, especially enumerated.
v
it is proper to state that under Chapter 93, Acts of 1891, the city is
authorized to anticipaie its authority to borrow money within its debt limit
for any current municipal year.

HISTORY OF DEBT.—For early history of the Connecticut State debt
"State and City Supplement" of April 1895, page 36.
An Act of the
Legislature approved April 14 1909, provides for the Issuance of $7,000,000
3
bonds "to meet the needs of the State."
In 1911, however, another
Act was passed limiting the issuance of bonds u ader the Act of
1909 to
$3,100,000 and authorizing a further Issue of $6,000,000 4% bonds for the
same purpose.
This Act was amended in 1913 and the amount authorized
increased from $6,000,000 to $10,000,000.
Of the bonds authorized in
1909, $3,064,000 were issued, and under the Act of 1911 $8,000,000 have
been put out.
The
bonds, it is provided, "shall be exempt from taxa¬
tion by or under State or
municipal authority." The 4s are also exempted
from taxation, but the Act
provides that "this exemption shall not be con¬
strued to apply to corporations taxed under the
provisions of Sec. 2331, Gen.
Stat., and amendments thereof."

and these counties are made up of towns,
numbering In the aggregate 168.
The towns are the olvll unit, and on the
assessed valuation (which Is called the "Grand List of each town ) Is
levied the tax for State purposes as well as the tax for town expenditures.
Within the town Is often situated a city or a borough, or both, all of which
may at the same time have bonds outstanding.
In recent years several
towns and cities whose limits were about Identical have been consolidated
and the outstanding bonds of both town and city are reported together with
out distinction.
This is the case with the city and town of Hartford, which
previous to April 1896, reported their debts separately.
The city and town
of New London have been consolidated, as have also the city and town of
New Britain and the city and town of Bridgeport.
On Deo. 7 1897 the city,
town and school district of New Haven were likewise consolidated.
The borough stands In about the same

account the State, town, city and school district levies.

will be found in the "State and City Supplement'*
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

Year—

of April

improving the Erie, Oswego and Champlain
canals.
These bonds were all issued and have since been redeemed. In 1903
a further issue of $101,000,000 canal bonds was authorized, and up to date
$63,000,000 of these bonds have been sold. fA bill, signed by the Governor
Apr. 17 1912, authorizes the State Comptroller to issue canal improvement
bonds made payable in foreign cufrency. V. 94, p. 1131.] At the 1905 elec¬
tion a constitutional amendment was adopted giving authority to create an
aggregate debt of $50,000,000 for highway purposes, and up to date $34,000,000 of these bonds have been sold.
The question of issuing an additional $50,000,000 bonds for highways received a favorable vote in Nov.
1912.
In Nov. 1909 the voters approved the issuance of $7,000,000 bonds
for the Cayuga and Seneca canals.
Of this latter Issue $3,000,000 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. 669, Laws of 1909. as amended by
Chap. 394, Laws 1911, $950,000 bonds were authorized for a State Reser¬
vation at Saratoga Springs.
These bonds were all issued, but $95,000 have
been redeemed, leaving outstanding at this time $855,000.
A proposition
to Issue $19,800,000 barge canal terminal bonds was adopted Nov. 7 1911,
and of these $5,000,000 have been sold.
The State's bonded debt on
Sept. 30 1913 was $108,355,660 and the sinking fund $26,013,597.40. Loans

requirements by diverting a part of the sinking funds which were said to
be in excess of requirements.

surplus to the general fund failed to pass, however, and at the extra session
provision was made for a direct tax levy (see remarks above).]

in, or bonds of, any association or corporation; nor shall any such
county,

(2)

No county or city shall be allowed to become Indebted for any pur¬

Consol. Laws of 1909 (p. 403) provides that "all bonds of a
municipal corpo¬
ration, 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 H 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 full
text of the bill will be found in V. 93,
p. 204.
See also V. 93, p. 893 & 969.
An unsuccessful

attempt to repeal this law was made at the 1913 session
of the Legislature.
An amendment passed by the 1913 Legislature per¬
mits bonds to be registered covering
mortgages issued on property within
or without the State.
V. 96, p. 1435.

TAXATION OF MORTGAGES.—Mortgages now are not subject to tax¬
any kind, the only charge being a recording tax of
of 1%.
[For
opinion of Attorney-General on attempt to evade this tax, see V. 95. p. 93.]
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 was submitted to a vote Nov. 4 1913.
When it is definitely
determined whether or not the proposition carried, the fact will be
reported
in the "State and City Dept." of the "Chronicle."
TAX LAW RELATIVE TO INVESTMENTS IN STATE BONDS BY
SAVINGS BANKS, TRUST COMPANIES AND INSURANCE COM¬
PANIES.—A new section (Section 187c) was added to the Tax Law by an
amendment passed by the Legislature of 1907.
This amendment provides
that every corporation, company or association required by Section
187,
187a or 187b of Chapter 908 to pay to the State an annual tax 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 ca¬
pacity, which shall own any State bonds, shall have credited to It annually

reference to the exclusion of debt incurred for
rapid transit and dock pur¬

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

city to become otherwise indebted, provided that a sinking fund

for its amortiza¬

Sec.

146.

We give

below:

In what

'

securities

deposits may be invested.—The trustees of
any savings banks may invest the moneys deposited therein and the income
derived therefrom only as follows:
1. In the stocks or bonds or interest-bearing notes or obligations of the
United States, or those for which the faith of the 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.
2. In the stocks or bonds or

V. 78, p. 298.]
interest-bearing obligations of this

State

issued pursuant to the authority of any law of the State.
3. In the stocks or bonds or interest-bearing obligations of any State of
the United States which has not within ten years previous to making such
investment by such corporation defaulted in the payment of any part of
principal or interest of any debt authorized by the Legislature of any
such State to be contracted; and in the bonds or interest-bearing obligations
of any State of the United States, Issued in pursuance of the authority of
either

the

Legislature of such State, which have, prior to. May 29 1895 been
for the funding or settlement of any previous obligation of such
funding or settlement obliga¬
tion there has been no default in the payment of either principal or interest
since the issuance of such funding or settlement obligation, and provided the
interest on such funding or settlement obligations have been paid regularly
for a period of not less than ten years next preceding such investment,
and in the stocks, bonds or interest-bearing obligations of any State of the
United States, issued in pursuance of the authority of the constitution or
the Legislature of such State, to refund at or before maturity or within
ninety days after maturity any of the bonds or obligations of such State
which at their maturity, or at the date of their payment if paid before
maturity, were legal investments for savings banks under the provisions of
this subdivision, on which refunding obligation there has been no default in
the payment of either principal or interest since the issuance thereof.
[On July 24 1909 the Attorney-General rendered an, opinion to the effect
that bonds of the State of Oklahoma are legal investments for savings banks
under the terms of this 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, is 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. He called attention to the action of Louisiana In disclaiming liability
for some $900,000 of so called "baby bonds" authorized by Act 104. Laws
of 1880, and by the constitution as amended in 1879.
It had been argued
that the "baby" oonds were invalid when put out, having been given in ex¬
change for warrants issued between 1874 and 1879 in violation of the con¬
stitutional provision then in force which made void all appropriations or
claims in excess of current revenue.
As, however, the bonds were expressly
authorized both by constitutional amendment and by the Act of the Gen¬
eral Assembly above referred to the Attorney-General thought "there
certainly would be grave doubt in holding that these bonds did not represent
a debt 'authorized by the Legislature' of the State to be contracted.'
The
Attorney-General also mentioned as a further ground of objection to the
Port Commission bonds that they are not a direct obligation of the State
of Louisiana.
This view, however, is not concurred in by the United States
authorities, for on Oct. 23 1911, R. P.Goodwin, Assistant Attorney-General
for the Post Office Department, rendered an opinion holding that the Port
Commission bonds are an obligation of the State of Louisiana, and in accord¬
ance with this advice Lee McClung, Treasurer of the United
States, on
March 11 1912 announced that the bonds would be accepted
by his office
as
security for postal savings funds.]
[Bonds of the State of Louisiana to be issued for the refunding of what Is
known as "Consolidated Bonds," due Jan. 1 1914, are held to be
legal in¬
vestments for New York State savings banks in an opinion rendered
by the
issued

State theretofore in default, and on which said

Nov., 1913. J

Attorney-General on Oct. 22 1913.
In previous opinions (July 3 1912 and
Aug. 11 1909, as noted above), it was held that inasmuch as Louisiana had
defaulted in the payment of the 4'baby bonds," other obligations of the
State could not be legally purchased by savings bank trustees.
In reversing
these former rulings Attorney-General Carmody says that it now appears
that these "baby" bonds were not bonds for the payment of which the credit
of the State was pledged, but were issued against certain revenues of the
State, namely unpaid taxes, and were payable out of these revenues only.
Therefore the failure to pay the same does not, according to the AttorneyGeneral, constitute such a default as would make other bonds of the State
improper investments. See V. 97, p. 1227, 1304, 1367 and 1444.]
[Bonds to be issued by the State of Tennessee pursuant to an Act ap¬
proved Feb. 21 1913 are held to be legal investments for New York savings
banks in an opinion by the Attorney-General on March 14 1913.

[On June 16 1913 the Attorney-General held that bonds of the State of
New Mexico issued pursuant to an Act approved June 1 1912 are legal in¬
vestments for New York savings banks. V. 96, p. 1852.]
4. In the stocks or bonds of any city, county, town or village, school
district bonds and union free school district bonds Issued for school purposes,
[poor district bonds], or in the interest- bearing obligations of any city,
county, town or

village of this State, issued pursuant to

the authority of

law of the State for the payment of which the faith and credit of the
municipality issuing them are pledged.

5. In the stocks or bonds of any incorporated city situated In one of the
States of the United States which was admitted to Statehood prior to Janu¬
ary 1 1896, and which, since January 1 1,861, has not repudiated or defaulted
in the payment of any part of the principal or interest of any debt authorized
by the Legislature of any such State to be contracted, provided said city
has a population, as shown by the Federal Census next preceding said invest¬
ment of not less than 45,000 inhabitants, and was incorporated as a city
at least twenty-five years prior to the making of said Investment and had
not since January 1 1878 defaulted for more than ninety days in the pay¬
ment of any part either of principal or Interest of any bond, note or other
evidence of Indebtedness, or effected any compromise of any kind with the
holders thereof.
But if, after such default on the part of any such State
or city, the debt or security, in the payment of the principal or interest of
which such default occurred, has been fully paid, refunded or compromised
by the issue of new securities, then the date of the first failure to pay prin¬
cipal or interest, when due, upon such debt or security, shall be taken to
be the date of such default within the provisions of this sub-division, and
subsequent failures to pay Installments of principal or interest upon such
debt or security, prior to the refunding or final payment of the same, shall
not be held to continue said default or to fix the time thereof within the
meaning of this sub-dlvlslon, at a date later than the date of said first failure
any

in

payment.

If at any time the Indebtedness of any

such city, together

or other municipal corporation or
which is wholly or in part included within the
bounds or limits of said city, less Its water debt and sinking funds, shall
exceed 7% of the valuation of said city for purposes of taxation, its bonds
and stocks shall thereafter, and until such Indebtedness shall be reduced to
7% of the valuation for the purposes of taxation, cease to be an authorized
Investment for the«raoneys of savings banks: but the Superintendent of
Banks may, in his discretion, require any savings bank to sell such bonds or
stocks of said city as may have been purchased prior to said increase of debt.
[On Feb. 15 1911 an opinion was rendered by the Attorney-General
deciding that both real and personal property should be used as a basis in
determining the 7% debt limit which the savings bank law says must not
be exceeded In the case of municipalities in the bonds of which the banks
may make investments.
The question was raised because of the fact that
the constitutional provision in regard to cities of this State provides that
no city shall be allowed to become indebted for more than ten per cent of
its assessed real estate.
See V. 92, p. 610.]
[In Dec. 1911 the Attorney-General rendered an opinion holding that
bonds of the City of Omaha, Neb., are not legal investments, this being on
the assumption that the bonded debt of that city exceeded 7 % of its valua¬
tion.
See Y. 94, p. 645, for full text of opinion.]
[On Sept. 6 1912 the Attorney-General rendered an opinion, the full text
of which was given in the "Chronicle" of Sept. 14 1912, page 700, holding
that bonds of the city of Tacoma, Wash., are legal
investments.]
(In an opinion rendered Sept. 14 1912, the Attorney-General held that
bonds of the City of Dallas, Tex., are legal investments.

[Improvement bondsf of the City of Portland, Ore., issued pursuant to
Section 383A of the city charter are legal investments, according to an opin¬
ion of the Attorney-General dated April 51913., V. 96, p. 1169.]
6. In bonds and mortgages on unincumbered real property situated In
this State to the extent of 60% of the value thereof.
Not more than 65%
of the whole amount of deposits shall be so loaned or invested.
If the loan
Is on unimproved and unproductive real property, the , amount loaned
thereon shall not be more than 40% of Its actual value.
No investment in
any bonds and mortgages shall be made by any savings bank except upon
the report of a committee of its trustees charged with the duty of investi¬
gating the same, who shall certify to the value of the premises mortgaged or
to be mortgaged, according to their best judgment, and such report shall
be filed and preserved among the records of the corporation.

the old coun¬
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 Anally determined by the
Supreme Court (V. 71, p. 875) I
Un¬
der 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.
In¬
stead of apportioning certain bonds
to
New York City and
to Nassau
County, the debt and interest is not
divided.

It will be noted that the above prohibitions are absolute.

forbids the
special laws "regulating the internal

constitution directing that in this and
all other cases where general laws are feasible, general laws shall be provided.
In compliance with this last provision the Legislature has passed many
general laws relating to the bonded indebtedness of the different kinds of
municipalities existing In New Jersey, which are counties, cities, towns,_
townships,
boroughs,
villages, school districts, and certain anomalous
municipalities governed by Boards of Commissioners, or Improvement
Commissions, and not specifically named as villages, which they really are.

other legal Indebtedness.
A supplement to this Act passed in 1912
provides that the failure to pay interest or principal of bonds the validity

or

of which is contested by the
municipality in pending litigation is not to be
deemed a default under said Act.
The constitutional prohibition above referred to against special legislation

relating to the Internal affairs of towns and counties has been so construed
by the highest Court in New Jersey as to prevent special legislation relating
to the internal affairs of any
municipality.
The word "towns" as used
In the constitutional provision is construed in the broadest possible sense,
so as to include
cities, towns, townships, boroughs, villages, school dis¬
tricts and municipalities of every kind.
The result of this is that while
the Legislature may, and does, incorporate municipalities by Special Laws,
naming them and defining their boundaries, Special Laws as to the govern¬
ment and powers of such municipalities cannot be passed.
The old special
charters, which many cities have and which were granted before Sept.
1875, when this constitutional provision was adopted, remain in force
except so far as amended or repealed by general laws, as the constitutional
prohibition prevents the amendment or repeal of these old special charters
by a special law.
Consequently, at almost every session of the Legislature
in recent years, one or more laws have been passed providing generally for
the government of cities, or some other class of municipalities, which laws,
while general in form, are really passed for the benefit of some particular
municipality.
To avoid the amendment or repeal of the old special charters,
the new laws by their terms do not take effect until accepted by the voters
at an election held for that purpose, and usually only the particular muni¬
cipality at whose solicitation a law is passed accepts it.
This makes it
necessary to inquire as to any municipality whether or not It has accepted
any such laws in order to know how it Is governed.
These referendum
charters, as they may be called, frequently contain special debt limits and
other important provisions in regard to municipal finance,, as did also
the old spieclal charters.
Similarly, many acts granting power to muni¬
cipalities are passed
which do not provide a frame of government, but
still take effect only on acceptance.

Counties, towns, townships, boroughs and villages are almost entirely
by general laws applicable either to all municipal corporations
or to those classes, except that a few of the older towns have special charters
which are still in force so far as not inconsistent with general laws adopted
since.
Counties are governed by the General County Act of 1846, as
amended, Comp. Stat, of 1910, p. 474, and there are numerous Acts giving
powers either to all counties or to those Of a certain population.
Towns
are governed by the General Town Law of 1895, P. L. 1895, p. 218, Comp
Stat, of 1910, p. 5518.
This Act applies to all towns incorporated under
it by referendum proceedings, and also to towns previously incorporated
under other General Town Laws.
Boroughs are governed by the General
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 townships 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, Comp.
Stat, of 1910, p. 5727, which is known as The Winton Act.

of

The Act of Mar. 26 1896, appearing in the Comp. Stat, under the heading
"Municipal Corporations," Sec. 20 and 21, p. 3462, provided that

no borough or village should be
incorporated except by special
Act of the Legislature.
While this Act operated to prevent the incorpora¬
tion of boroughs and villages by referendum proceedings under previous
general laws, it does not prevent subsequent action by the Legislature

{jermittlngits policy to incorporate^ Jbowever, a declaration byAct, Legisature of
such incorporation. It Is municipalities by special the which
policy has

been

pursued

to

all

municipalities since that date.
This
has many advantages, the principal one of which is, that as to
municipalities so incorporated there can be no question as to their cor¬
porate existence, name, and boundaries, which are fixed by, the special
Act.
When the Legislature desires to Incorporate a town, 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 in¬
corporated 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.
as

course

At the session of 1911 the Legislature adopted

Act providing for the
commission form of government in cities,
generally known as The Walsh
Act, being Chap. 221 of the Laws of that year.
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."
;

an

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,
that it is

clear that counties and school districts are not
affected.
further amended and supplemented
by Chapters 179 and 282
of the Acts of 1913.
Only five of the larger municipalities in New Jersey,
i. e., the cities of
Trenton, Passaic, Atlantic City, Jersey City and Long
Branch have accepted the Walsh
Act, and, while submitted to the voters
of a number of other cities, such as
Camden, Paterson, Hoboken, Elizabeth

The Walsh Act limited the net
bonded debt of cities accepting it to
10% of the assessed valuation of prop¬
erty therein, unless authorized by the voters at a
special election.
The
amendment of 1912 provides that such net bonded debt shall
be determined

by deducting from the ^ross bonded debt all water bonds, cash and
invest¬
sinking funds, and all bonds the payment of which is provided
in the current tax
levy and makes the limit on debt without an election

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.

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 commission
form of government, it has been stated in
the press that these counties
have accepted the "commission form of
government," thus creatine the
false Impression that they

LIMITATION OF TAX RATE —Chap. 116, Laws of 1906, provides
that the ultimate maximum tax rate for all taxing districts of the State
for county, school district and local
purposes, shall be $17.50 for each
$1,000 of assessed valuation, and requires a gradual reduction to said
ultimate rate in taxing districts where the rate in 1905 exceeded that amount.

The Act further provides an ultimate rate of taxation for county purposes
of $5.00 per $1,000 of assessed valuation, and for a similar gradual reduc¬
tion to said ultimate rate in counties which had a higher rate in 1905,
This limitation does not apply to taxes required to raise any State tax

of such assessed valuation may be authorized by law to increase the same
three per centum in the aggregate, at any one time, upon such valuation.
[At the Nov. 1911 election the voters adopted an amendment to the
above section which allows the city of Philadelphia, in ascertaining its
borrowing capacity, to exclude such debt as may be incurred for the
construction or development of subways for transit purposes or for the
construction of wharves or docks owned or to be owned by the city and
which produce revenue sufficient to pay the interest and principal of such
debt.
V. 93, p. 1547.
We print below the lines added to Section 8.
"Except that any debt or debts hereinafter incurred by the city and
county of Philadelphia for the construction and development of subways for
transit purposes, or for the construction of wharves and docks, or the recla¬
mation of land to be used in the construction of a system of wharves and
docks, as public improvements, owned of to be owned by said city and
county of Philadelphia, and which shall yield to the city and county of
Philadelphia current net revenue in excess of the Interest on said debt or
debts and of the annual installments<*flfe"cessary for the cancellation of said
debt or debts, may be excluded in ascertaining the power of the city and
oounty of Philadelphia to become otherwise Indebted! Provided, That a
sinking fund for their cancellation shall be established and maintained."
SECTION 9. The Commonwealth shall not assume the debt, or any part
thereof, of any city, county, borough or township, unless such debt shall
have been-contracted to enable the State to repel invasion, suppress do¬
mestic insurrection, defend itself in time of war, or to assist the State in
the discharge of any portion of its present indebtedness.
SECTION 10. Any county, township, school district or other munici¬
pality incurring any Indebtedness shall, at or before the time of so doing,
provide for the collection of an annual tax sufficient to pay the interest,
and also the principal thereof within thirty years.

[By a decision of the Supreme Court
of Pennsylvania, filed May 31 1894,
It is held that, within the meaning of
the word "Debt" in
Section VIII
Article IX, of the Constitution of
Pennsylvania, the real debt of the
city is the authorized debt less the
amount of the city certificates pur¬
chased and uncanceled in the sinking
fund.
Under a decision of the Court
Of Common Pleas No. 4, dated April
12 1913, the net school debt is deductable in a manner similar to the

There is nothing in the constitution of Mary¬
DEBT LIMITATION
limiting the power of the Legislature to authorize bond issues either
by the State or by its municipalities, except that in Section 34, Article 3, we
find that "the credit of the State shall not in any manner be given, or
loaned to, or in aid of, any individual, association or corporation; nor shall
the General Assembly, have the power in any mode to involve the State in
the construction of works of internal improvement, nor in granting any
aid thereto, which shall involve the faith or
credit of the State.
No
general limit for cities, and towns has been fixed by the Legislature, nor is
there any general authorization to be found in the statutes under which
cities and towns can issue bonds.
This power is lodged in the Legislature,
and is delegated to the municipalities.from time to time for specific purposes
as the occasion may arise.
It is necessary, therefore, for the investor to
study the law in each case on this as well as on other points affecting the
loan with respect to which he may need information.

SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS.—There are in this State general
banking laws under which savings banks may be organized, but a number
of the savings institutions have been jincorporated under special charter.
However, in both the general and special laws there appears to be a pretty
general authority granted for investing the deposits.
The general law
states that-—

Any savings institution incorporated under this article shall be capable
of receiving from any person or persons, or bodies corporate or politic, any
deposits of money, which shall be invested or loaned out on good security in the
discretion of the directors, provided that no part of the funds of said corpora¬
tion shall be loaned to any officer or director of such corporation.

In a special charter granted to the Germania Savings Bank of Baltimore In
1890, the power to loan the deposits is made a little more definite.
The sec¬
referring to that subject states that the "corporation shall have power to
"borrow money, receive money on deposit, loan money, taking such secur¬
ity therefor, either real or. personal, as the board of directors may deem
"sufficient, provided that no part of the funds of said corporation shall be
"loaned to an officer or director thereof."
"
.We cannot discover any marked difference in the two provisions cited
except that the enactment in the case of the Germania Savings Bank states
distinctly that the security can be either real or personal.
But as much
as that would, we think, be assumed as authorized under the general provi¬
sion, since no limit is made, and loaning on bond and.mortgage is always
a legitimate part of the business of savings banks.

There is no limit to length of sessions.
The requirement being that State
elections must be held in even years, this would make it impossible for
legislators to convene until the second January after their election. Never¬
theless, an amendment for the purpose of relieving this situation by chang¬
ing the time for convening the Legislature was defeated in 1908; V. 87,
p. 1435.
(Report of Secretary of State, page 574.)
The Legislature in
1910, however, passed an Act providing for the beginning of the regular
session on the first Monday in "January after members are elected.
See
V. 91, p. 894.

of the Legislature In
1902 an Act popularly known as the "Longworth Omnibus bill" was passed
and subsequently upheld by the State Supreme Court.
This Act amends
Seotlon 2835, 2836 and 2837, Revised Statutes of Ohio, relating to the Issu¬
ance of bonds by cities, villages and other municipal corporations.
Under
the new law the municipal boards of legislation, councils, &c., may by twothirds vote Issue bonds for certain specified purposes to the extent of 1% of
the assessed valuation yearly (but not exoeedlng 4% in the aggregate) with¬
out submitting the question to a vote of the people.
Bonds Issued under
this Act In excess of I % In any one year or In excess of 4% In the aggregate
must first be submitted to a vote of the people and carried by two-thirds
of those voting on the proposition; but a net debt (bonds less sinking fund)
of more than 8% In the aggregate cannot be authorized In any event.
The
Act.as amended In 1906 will be found In the "Chronicle" May 26 1906, page
1224.
In May 1910 the law was further amended so as to limit the bonding
power Of townships and municipal corporations to 5%, instead of 8%, of
the tax duplicate.
This was done by amending Sections 3942, 3945, 3948
and 3954 of the General Code, making them read as folllows:
Sec. 3942.
The net Indebtedness Incurred by any township or munici¬
pal corporation for the purposes mentioned In sections 3295 and 3939 of the
General Code shall never exceed 2 M% of the total value of all the property
In such corporation or township, as listed and assessed for taxation, unless
the excess of such amount Is authorized by vote of the qualified electors
of the township or corporation In the,manner hereinafter provided.

In addition many special laws found their way on to the statute books
nominally general In their soope but really so worded as to apply to only
one city.
In June 1902, however, the State Supreme Court handed down
several deolslons declaring such laws special legislation and therefore un¬
constitutional.
The decisions were considered to be of such broad applica¬

cities could not subscribe to the stock of or loan money to railroads, as
railroads are corporations and joint-stock companies.
That, however, is
not a correct conclusion, as was decided in the case of Walker vs. The City
of Cincinnati, a case which arose under an Act of the General Assembly of
Ohio entitled "An Act relating to cities of the first class" authorizing any
such city to construct a line of railroad therefrom to any other terminus
In that State or in any other State.
In pursuance of the authority that Act
purports to give. Cincinnati undertook to build the Cincinnati Southern
Railroad.
To test the legality of that proceeding this action was brought.
The Court's opinion Is very full and explicit, the conclusion being that from
•'the language of the section, it is quite evident that it was not intended t0
"prohibit the construction of railroads nor indeed to prohibit any species of
"public improvements. The section contains no direct reference to railroads
"nor to any other special classes of improvements or enterprises.
The
"inhibitions are directed only against a particular manner or means by

CONSTITUTION ACT OF 1911 DECLARED VOID.—An Act of the
Legislature approved by the Governor on March 4 1911, providing for
the submission to a vote of the people of a proposed new State constitution,
in the view that it might be considered as a series of amendments to the
existing
constitution, was declared unconstitutional by Judge Remster
of the Marion County Circuit Court on Sept 25 1911.
V. 93, p. 893.
Judge Remster's ruling was affirmed by the Supreme Court on July 5 1912.
V. 95, p. 126.
Petition for a re-hearing was aenied Oct. 18 1912. V. 95,
p. 1143.
Case appealed to U. S. Supreme Court Nov. 26 1912.
V. 95,
p. 1485.
GRAVEL ROAD LAW OF 1905.—The State Supreme Court in No¬
1909 decided that this Act was unconstitutional on the ground
provisions which were such as to make it a local and
special Act.
The decision was based on that part of the law which pro
vides that "whenever a petition signed by fifty or more freeholders and
voters of any township in any county in this State includes any incorporated
town or city in such township having a population of less than 30,000
inhabitants, praying," &c., the commissioners shall proceed to carry out
the provisions of the Act.
Upon rehearing, however, it was pointed out
that this section as printed contained a clerical error, and the Court on
vember

and

upheld the contention that the word

"includes" should be read "including ', thereby making eligible to become
petitioners for gravel roads any freeholder and voter in any township with
the exception of those residing in incorporated towns and cities of over
30,000 inhabitants, which latter should be neither taxed nor eligible to
participate in such proceeding.

No action has yet been taken to avail of this amend¬
ment, and on Oct. 25 1911 the Illinois House of Representatives defeated a
bill for the appointment of a deep waterway commission and for obtaining
water-power sites between Lockport and Utica.
See V. 93, p. 1211.
SECOND, municipal indebtedness is regulated only in the constitution of
1870. In that instrument the subject is dealt with in ail its phases.
First
is a provision in Article 8, Section 3, forbidding the General Assembly and
every municipality from making any appropriation in aid of any sectarian
purpose.
Second is a "separate section" forbidding any such municipality
from becoming a subscriber to the stock of any railroad, &c., or to loan its
credit.
Third is the broad and general provision, Section 12, Article 9,
which limits the indebtedness of all municipalities to 5% "on the value of
the taxable property therein," &c.
We give these sections below:

there is a general assessment of real
instead of annually; personal prop¬
erty is listed every year.
The law also provides that property shall be
appraised at full value, but assessed at only one-fifth of such value.
This
law was changed, however, by an Act passed in 1909 which provides for
the assessment of property at one-third pf the actual value.
The new
basis of assessment went into effect in 1909, with the result that values for
that year show large increases while the tax rates are decreased corres¬

HISTORY OF DEBT.—The historical details of Michigan's State debt
will be found in the "State and City Supplement" of April 1894,
In 1864 the State Treasurer reported the funded debt at $3,880,399 and $1,450,472 additional "trust fund debt."
The State has no
bonded debt at present.
The "trust fund debt" on June 30 1913 amounted
to $6,894,212.46.
The term "trust fund debt" is, however, a misnomer.
In explanation it should be said that the United States Government set
aside certain lands in the State of Michigan for educational purposes, and
under the Michigan statutes the money received from the sale of these
lands Is used to pay the general expenses of the State; the law provides,
however, that a certain specified rate of interest must be annually figured
on the total amount accumulated from said sales and be
paid over to the
educational institutions specified.
The amount of interest to be so paid
is raised by taxation.
up to 1894

EQUALIZED VALUATION.—Since 1856 the equalized valuation has
been determined only once in five years.
The following shows the equalized
valuation and tax rate for State purposes for every tenth year since 1846
and every fifth year since 1896.
The State tax rate for 1907 was 2.81 mills,
for 1908 2.41 mills, for 1909 3.42 mills, 1910 2.72, 1911 2.85 and 1912 2.38

Legislature in the matter of restrictions upon their borrowing power.
The
provision which relates to this subject is found in Article 8, Section 20,a nd
is

as

follows.

,

SECTION 20.
The Legislature shall provide by a general law for thel ncorporation of cities and by a general law for the incorporation of villages
such general laws shall limit their rate of taxation for
municipal purposes
and restrict their powers of borrowing money and contracting debts.
Pursuant to Sec. 20, laws providing for the incorporation of cities and
villages were passed by the Legislature in 1909.
By Subdivision (i) of Section 26 of Act No. 278 of the Public Acts of 1909
villages are prohibited from incurring debt in excess of 10% of the assessed
valuation as shown by the last preceding assessment roll,
except that in
the case of fire, flood or other calamity, requiring an
emergency fund, or
for the repair or rebuilding of any of its municipal buildings,
works, bridges
or streets, a village may borrow an additional amount not
exceeding M of
1% of the assessed value; but such debt not to run for more than three

years.

be Issued beyond

the limit of general indebtedness, but such bonds, it is provided, shall be
secured only upon the property and revenue of such
utility, including
a franchise, stating the terms
upon which. In case of foreclosure the pur¬
chaser may operate the same, which franchise shall in no case extend for
a

longer period than 20

years

from the date of the sale of such utility and

foreclosure.
The rate of tax which villages may levy for

sessed valuation.
Subdivision (Jc) says that no village shall have power
to issue any bonds without creating a sinking fund for their payment, ex¬

cept special assessment bonds, which are a charge upon a special district
created for the payment thereof, and serial bonds payable annually.
The borrowing jpowers of cities are regulated by subdivision (&) of Sec. 4
of Act No. 279 oi the Public Acts of 1909, as amended by Act 203, Public
Acts of 1911, and Act No. 5, Public Acts of 1913, known as the "Home
Rule" Act. nr. 96, pp. 1107 & 1607.]
It is therein provided that each city
may in its charter provide for borrowing money in a sum not to exceed 8 %
of the assessed value except that in cities where the amount which may be
borrowed is now limited by law, such limit shall continue until raised or low¬
ered by a 3-5 vote of the electors voting on the question at a general or
special election; and in such cities bonds Issued for public improvements in
connection with which a special assessment district is made to pay therefor,
and which are a charge upon such district, shall not be included unless the
contrary is provided by the charter, and the resources of the sinking fund
shall be deducted in determining the amount of such indebtedness.
No
single increase shall exceed 2% of the assessed value,
when a city is
authorized to acquire or operate any public utility, it may, for the purpose
of acquiring the same, borrow money on the credit of the city in a sum not
to exceed 2% of the assessed value of all of the real and personal property of
the city, and the city may also, for the purpose of acquiring such public
utility, issue mortgage bonds therefor beyond the general limit of bonded
indebtedness prescribed by law;
Provided,
That such mortgage bonds
issued beyond the general limits of bonded indebtedness prescribed by law
shall not impose any liability upon such city, but shall be secured only
upon the property and revenues of such public utility, including a franchise
Stating the terms upon which, in case of foreclosure, the purchaser may
operate the same .which franchise shall in no case extend for a longer period
than 20 years from the date of the sale of such utility and franchise on
foreclosure.
And provided, further, That the charter shall provide for the
creation of a sinking fund by setting aside such percentage of the gross
or net earnings of the public utility as may be deemed sufficient for the
payment of the mortgage bonds at maturity.
In case of fire, flood or
other calamity, the legislative body may borrow for the relief of the in¬
habitants of the city and for the preservation of municipal property, a
sum not to exceed H of 1% of the assessed value, due in not more than
three years, even if such loan would cause the indebtedness of the city
to exceed the limit fixed in the charter.
No city shall have the power
to incur indebtedness or issue bonds of any kind except for emergency pur¬
poses as above stated, and bonds secured only by mortgage on the property
and franchise of a public utility which shall exceed in the aggregate 10%
of the assessed value of all the real and personal property in the city.
It

is also provided that cities now incorporated as fourth-class cities may,
While so incorporated, incur indebtedness up to the limits contained in the
Act of

incorporation.

Subdivision (a) of Section 4 allows cities to levy an annual tax not ex¬
ceeding 2% of the assessed value.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.—At an election held April 7
1913 proposed constitutional amendments granting the right of suffrage
pensions were defeated.
Three other
amendments submitted, including provisions for initiative and referendum
in legislative matters, initiative and referendum on constitutional amend¬
ments and recall of elective officers (excepting judges of courts of record),

HISTORY OF DEBT.—A brief summary of the early history of the Wis¬
consin debt Trill be found in the "State and City Supplement" for April 1895.
The bonded debt of the State, created for war purposrs in 1861-63, has
all been paid or else converted into certificates of indebtedness, which are
held by the various trust funds.
The amounts due the several funds in
Oct., 1913, were as follows:

in values for 1901 and since that date is due to the

formation of a new State Board of Assessment by Chapter 237, Laws of 1901,
which has construed the existing law to be a command to assess at full value,
whereas former boards did not so construe the Act.

DEBT LIMITATION.—The constitutional provision of Wisconsin re¬
stricting debt- making are very rigorous, plain and comprehensive.
Since
the amendment adopted in 1874, debts of cities, &c., as well as the State,
are definitely
limited by that instrument.
We give the provisions first
which relate to the State and, after, those which have reference to cities, &c.

(1) STATE indebtedness is confined within very close bounds. The sections
which cover the subject are Sections 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 and 10 of Article 8.
We

give them in full below.
SECTION 3.

OKLAHOMA—State,

The credit of the State
association or cor¬

poration.
The State shall never contract any

public debt, except in the cases and manner herein provided.
SECTION 6.
Limitation on Public Debt.
For the purpose of defraying
extraordinary expenditures, the State may contract public debts (but such
debts shall never in the aggregate exceed $100,0001.
Every such debt shall
be authorized by law, for some purpose or purposes to be distinctly specified
therein; and the vote of a majority of all the members elected to each House
to be taken by yeaa and nays, shall be necessary to the passage of such law;

and every such law shall provide for levying an annual tax sufficient to pay
the annual interest of such debt, and the principal within five years from
the passage

of such law, and shall specially appropriate the proceeds of such
of such principal and interest, and such appropriation

diminished, until the

State may borrqw money, when.

The Legislature may also
borrow money to repel invasion, suppress insurrection or defend the State
in time of war: but the money thus raised shall be applied exclusively to
the object for which the loan was authorized or to the payment of the debt
thereby created.
••
SECTION 9.
Evidences of debt.
No scrip,certificate or other evidence
of State debt whatsoever shall be issued, except.for such debts as are au¬
thorized by the sixth and seventh sections of this article.
SECTION 10.
Internal improvements—avails of grants.
The State shall
never contract any debt for works of internal improvement or be a party in
carrying on such works; but whenever grants of land or other property shall
have been made to the State especially dedicated by the grant to particular
works of internal improvement, the State may carry on such particular works
and shall devote thereto the avails of such grants, and may pledge or appro¬
priate the revenues derived from such works in aid of their completion.
Provided that the State may appropriate moneys for the purpose of ac¬
quiring, preserving and developing the water power and forests of the
State; but there shall not be appropriated under the authority of this
section in any one year an amount to exceed two tenths of one mill of the
taxable property of the State as determined by the last preceding State
assessment.

Since that amendment was adopted 5 %
on the value of the taxable property has been the extreme amount of debt
permissible for any municipality.
Not only is that the case, but, as will be
seen, the municipality is required before, or at the time when it incurs any
indebtedness, to make provision for an annual tax sUfficicient to pay the in¬

pay

the principal within 20

from the time

years

of contracting the debt.

Tne voters in Nov. 1912 adopted an amendment
Section 3 of Article XI. extending the time to fifty years within which
cities or counties having a population of 150,000 or over shall pay debts
incurred for the acquisition of land.
The section referred to now reads as
to

follows:

'

,

Section 3, Article XI.—"It shall be the duty of the Legislature, and they
hereby empowered to provide for the organization of cities and incor¬

are

porated villages, and to restrict their power of taxation, assessment, borrow¬
ing money, contracting debts and loaning their credit, so as to prevent
abuses in assessments and taxation, and in contracting debts by such
municipal corporations."
*
"No county, city, town, village, school district or other municipal corpora¬
tion shall be allowed to become indebted In any manner or for any purpose,
to any amount, including existing indebtedness in the aggregate exceeding

5% on the value of the taxable property therein, to be ascertained by the
last assessment for State and county taxes previous to the incurring of such
indebtedness.
Any county, city, town, village, school district or other

municipal corporation incurring

any

indebtedness

as

aforesaid

shall, before

or at the time of doing so provide for the collection of a direct annual tax
sufficient to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and

discharge the principal thereof within twenty years from the time of con¬
tracting the same, except that when such indebtedness is incurred in the
acquisition of lands by cities, or by counties having a population of one
hundred and fifty thousand or over, ror public, municipal purposes or for
the permament improvement thereof, the city or county incurring the same
shall, before or at the time of so doing, provide for the collection of a direct
annual tax sufficient to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and
also to pay and discharge the principal thereof within the period not ex¬
ceeding fifty years from the time of contracting the same."
The Legislature has from time to time passed laws
providing for the
issuance of bonds for various specified
purposes, but these laws are too
numerous to be given here.
Such authority is of course subject to the fore¬
going provisions of the constitution.

TAXATION OF MONEYS AND

CREDITS.—The Legislature in 1911

Act (Chapter 63) requiring that moneys and credits be taxed at
of 5 mills.
Heretofore moneys and credits were
assessed at full value and taxed at 25% of this value the same as other
passed

an

property.
TAX RATE.—The State tax (per $1,000) for

„

1912 was $3.90;this included
$3.40 general State tax and 50 cents for educational purposes; for 1911 and
1910 it was $3.80, of which $3.30 was for general State tax and 50 cents for
educational

purposes.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.—On Nov. 3 1908 an amend¬
ment to the State constitution was adopted by the voters.
The amend¬
ment, which is an addition to Section 18 of Article 1, provides for the
construction of drains, ditches and levees, as well as
the organization
of drainage districts.
V. 87, p. 1556.
DEBT LIMITATION.—Iowa's
constitution restricts the creating of
debt, both State debt and municipal debt.
FIRST, as to State debt, the

limitation made is not absolute, for it permits
law for some single specified work. But

other debt if authorized by some

permission is very safely guarded—(1) the law must provide for
collection of a direct annual tax sufficient to pay the interest regularly

and

discharge the debt in twenty years; and (2) the law cannot take effect
until it has been submitted to the people at a general election, and has
the State

we

give below;

[Limitation of State indebtedness.]

or become responsible for the debts or liabilities of any individual, associ¬
ation or corporation, unless incurred in time of war for the benefit of the

2.
[Same.]
The State may contract debts to supply casual
failures in revenues, or to meet expenses otherwise provided

for; but the aggregate amount of such debts, direct
contracted by virtue of one or more Acts of the

and contingent, whether

General Assembly or at
shall never exceed the sum of $250,000; and the
money arising from the creation of such debts shall be applied to the
purpose for which it was obtained, or to repay the debts so contracted,
and to no other purpose whatever.
Section 4.
[For what other ourposes State may contract debt.]
In addition
to the above limited power to contract debts, the State may contract
debts to repel invasion, suppress insurrection
or defend the State in war;
but the money arising from the debts so contracted shall be applied for
the purpose for which it was raised, or to repay such debts, and to no other
purpose whatever.
•
.
'
Section 5.
[Other debts to be authorized.] Except the debts herein before
specified in this article, no debt shall be hereafter contracted by or on behalf
of this State, unless such debt shall be authorized by some law for some
single work or object, to be distinctly specified therein; and such law
shall impose and provide for the collection of a direct annual tax sufficient
to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and dis¬
charge the principal of such debt within twenty years from the time of
contracting thereof; but no such law shall take effect until at a general
election it shall have been submitted to the people and have received a
majority of all the votes cast for and against it at such election; and all
money raised by authority of such law shall be applied only to the specific
object therein stated, or to the payment of the debt created thereby; and
such law shall be published in at least one newspaper in each county, if
one is published therein, throughout the State for, three months preceding
the election at which it is submitted to the people.
■ >
ARTICLE VIII, Section 3.
[State not to be a stockholder.]
The State
shall not become a stockholder in any corporation, nor shall it assume or
different periods of time,

pay
or

the debt or liability of any corporation,

the benefit of the State.

SECOND,

as

to municipal

unless incurred in time of war

indebtedness, thei limit is" fixed

thelM% limit must be authorized by a vote of the people. See V.78, p. 1408The 1913 Legislature passed an Act authorizing cities of the first-class
to issue flood protection bonds up to 5 % of the actual value of the taxable
property as shown by the last preceding assessment roll.
This Act shall be
construed as granting additional power without limiting the power already
existing in cities of the first class, including cities acting under the commis¬
sion plan of government.
See V. 96, p. 1241.

REGARDING DEBT LIMIT.—Judge Smith McPherson
Oct. 22 1909, in a case involving the right
Council Bluffs to issue bonds for a municipal water system,
sustained the city's contention that it could issue bonds up to 5% of the
actual value of the property of the city and was not limited to 5 % of the
taxable value.
Judge McPherson construed "taxable" to mean the actual
value of property subject to taxation, and not the assessed value, which,
by the State code, is fixed at only 25% of the actual value.
In taking this
position Judge McPherson referred to the opinion of the State Supreme
Court handed down in 1905, in the case of Halsey vs. City of Belle Blaine
(128 Iowa 467), which,he says, puts at rest the question raised. V.89,p. 1176.
OPINION REGARDING
MUNICIPAL IMPROV'T BONDS—The
Department of Justice,in Nov. 1911 rendered an opinion to the effect
that municipal improvement bonds or certificates issued in anticipation
of the collection of taxes need not be considered in determining the con¬
DECISION

of the U. S. Circuit Court on
of the City of

30th General Assembly be and the same are hereby
repealed, and the
following enacted in lieu thereof:
"No county or other political or municipal corporation shall be allowed
to become indebted in any manner or for any purpose to an amount ex¬
ceeding in the aggregate the amount of one and one-fourth per centum
of the actual value of the taxable property within such county or corpora¬

purchasing, erecting or maintaining and operating waterworks, electric
light and power plants, gas works and heating plants, or of building and
constructing sewers, incur an indebtedness not exceeding in the aggregate,
added to all other indebtedness, five per centum of the actual value of
the taxable property within such city or incorporated town.
The amount
of such taxable property shall be ascertained by the last State and county
tax list previous to the incurring of such indebtedness.
Section 2.
Provided that before such indebtedness can be contracted
in excess of one and one-quarter per centum of the actual value of the
taxable property ascertained as above provided in this Act, a petition
signed by a majority of the qualified electors of such city or town shall be
filed with the Council of such city or town, asking that an election shall
be called, stating the purposes for which the money is to be used and that
the necessary waterworks,
electric light and power plants, gas works
heating plants or sewers, cannot be purchased, erected, built or furnished
within the limit of one and one-quarter per centum of the valuation.
And
provided that in cities having a population of more than ten thousand,
the petition need not be signed by more than two hundred qualified electors.
Sections 3, 4, 5 and 6 prescribe manner of holding elections, issuance
of bonds, &c.

DEBT LIMITATION.—Missouri has made provision in its constitution
restricting the creation of debt both on behalf of the State and of its muni¬
cipalities.
That part relating to the State is found in Article 4, Sections
44, 45 and 46.
These sections provide that the General Assembly cannot
contract debts except (1) to renew existing bonds, (2) to meet an unfore¬
seen emergency or casual deficiency.
The State is prohibited from lending
its credit to any person, association or corporation or to pledge its credit
for the payment of liabilities of any individual, association or corporation.
The sections relating to the indebtedness of cities and other munici¬
palities are found in Article 4, Section 47; Article 9* Section 6, and Article
10, Sections 12 and 12a.
These sections make clear (1) that a municiDality cannot loan its credit; (2) that it cannot subscribe to the capital
stock of corporations; (3) that it cannot get into debt unless two-thirds of
the voters voting at an election favor it, and then only to an aggregate
of 5% of valuation, except that with such assent any county may be allowed
to become indebted in a larger amount for the erection of a court house or
jail, "or (as per amendment of 1906) for the grading, constructing, paving
or maintaining of paved, graveled, macadamized or rock roads and neces¬
sary bridges and culverts therein"; and except, also, per the amendment
of 1902 (Section 12a—see V. 75, p. <1165), cities of from 2,000 to 30,000
inhabitants may, by a two-thirds vote, exceed the limit, by an additional
5%, for the purchase or construction for water and light purposes; finally
(4), that before or at the time of getting the assent of the voters an annual
tax must be provided sufficient to pay interest and form a sinking fund
to pay the debt within 20.years.
"
'
.

OF MUNICIPAL BONDS.—In reply to our inquiry as
to whether or not bonds or notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued
by the State or any of its municipalities were exempt from taxation, we
were advised under date of December 8 1911 by the Secretary of State
that "bonds or notes or other evidences of indebtedness Issued by this
State are subject to taxation under the State constitution.
There has
been no legislation enacted exempting such papers from taxation."

within the State, and the aggregate amount of such debt shall not at any
time exceed three-fourths of a mill on each dollar of said valuation, until

not exceed one hundred thousand dollars, and the debt

debt shall

incurred in any one year for erection of public buildings shall not exceed
one-half mill on each dollar of said valuation, and the aggregate amount
of such debt shall never at any

time exceed the sum of fifty thousand dollars
(except as provided in section five of this article), and in all cases the valua¬
the assessment last preceding
the creation of said debt.
Provided, That, in addition to the amount of
debt that may be incurred as above, the State may contract a debt by loan
for the purpose of paying the principal and accrued interest of all the out¬
standing warrants: ssued by this State during and for the years 1887, 1888,
1889, 1892, 1893, 1894 and 1897, said debt to be evidenced by registered
coupon interest-bearing funding bonds to an amount not exceeding $2,115,000, or so much thereof as may be necessary to pay said warrants and inter¬
est thereon. For remainder of this section, as amended, see V. 89, p. 1363.
Counties are prohibited from contracting debt by loan in any form,
except for public buildings, roads and bridges, and such indebtedness is not
to exceed in any one year $i.50 on each $1,000 in counties where the assessed
valuation exceeds $5,000,000, and $3 on each $1,000 in counties the assessed
valuation of which is less than $5,000,000; the aggregate Indebtedness of
any county for all purposes (exclusive of debts contracted before the adop¬
tion of the constitution) may not exceed twice the amount of the above
limit, unless the question incurring such indebtedness shall be submitted
to the qualified tax-paying electors; "but the bonds, if any be issued theretion in this section mentioned snail be that of

'!

•

for, shall not ru* low than ten years, and the aggregate amount of debt so
contracted shall not at any time exceed twice the rate upon the valuation
last herein mentioned."
Originally counties with a valuation of less than
$1,000,000 were not entitled to this privilege. The constitution also provides
that, with the approval of the tax-paying electors, counties might issue
bonds In liquidation of certain indebtedness existing prior to Dec. 31 1886.
School districts cannot Incur debt without first submitting the proposition
to the tax-payers; otherwise there is no limit given in the State constitution
in their case. I In April 1009 an Act was approved providing that the bonded
indebtedness of any school district of the first or second class shall never in
the aggregate exceed 5%. or of any school district of the third class 3H%,
of the assessed value or the property in such district for the year next pre¬
ceding the date of said bonds.
,
Districts containing a school population of 1,000 or more are of the first

than 350 are second class, and

class, districts of less than 1,000 and more

districts having a population of 350 or less are of the third class.
In the contracting of debts by cities and towns, provision must be made
for a tax of not exceeding 12 mills on each dollar of valuation in order to

annual interest and extinguish debt within 15 years and in not less than
debt can be treated unless the question is first presented to
electors, and the aggregate of the debt must never exceed
3% of valuation.

TAXATION OF MUNICIPAL BONDS.— The Secretary of
Stateadvised
under date of December 11 1911, that he could find no statute
which
expressly exempts from taxation bonds, notes or other evidences of indebted¬
ness Issued by
the State, cdunties, school districts and
municipalities.
The constitution, however, exempts all property owned
by such political
divisions and also exempts mortgages from taxation, and it has
been con¬
strued that the bonds of the State and its municipalities
are mortgages

not

taxable.

The

Legislature

of

1911

passed

two

Acts

providing for bond issues ($269,000 road and bridge and $300,000 univer¬

in May 1911 held valid bond issues
of $150,000
for a fire station and
$15,000 for street-cleaning apparatus.
The principal question involved was
whether or not the objects for which
the issues
were made
were
public
utilities, and the Court decides that
they are. V. 92. p.. 1386.

an amendment adopted ih 1912) shall not either singly or in the aggregate,
with previous debts and liabilities incurred for that purpose, exceed two
per cent of the assessed valuation of all the property in the couhty.
It will be seen from the above that the power to limit the indebtedness
of municipalities has been relegated to the Legislative Assembly.
In 1903
the Legislature, acting under this authority, Rassed the
following Act.
Section 2722 of Bellinger & Cotton's Annotated Codes and Statutes:—

should provide for one-third the principal
debt, that Is, $15,239,370 out of the total
debt of $45,718,112.
To represent, therefore. West Virginia's share of
bonds funded, "deferred certificates" were Issued.
West Virginia, how¬
ever, refused to recognize these certificates.
After lengthy litigation, the
U. S. Supreme Court on March 6 1911 decided that West Virginia should
assume liability for a debt of $7,182,507, not counting the Interest, which was
left for adjustment between the parties. V. 92, p. 674. On Oct. 30 1911 the
U. S. Supreme Court, in an opinion expressed by Justice Holmes, denied
without prejudice the motion made on behalf of the State of Virginia to
compel West Virginia to take Immediate action to pay Its share of the debt.
The full text of the opinion will be found in V. 93, p. 1274.
In accordance
with a resolution passed by the 1913 Legislature, the Governor of West
Virginia on April 18 1913 appointed a commission of eleven to take up the
debt question.
V. 96, p. 1242.
The commissioners being unable to agree,
motion was filed in the U. S. Supreme Court by the State of Virginia on
Sept. 30 1913 asking for a final decree.
V. 97, p. 967,. The Court has set
April 13 1914 for a final hearing.
V. 97, p, 1444.
After about three-fourths of the old Virginia bonds had been surrendered,
and "deferred certificates" been given to represent West Virginia's onethird, under the Acts of 1871 and 1879, these Acts were repealed.
The
remaining bonds were refunded under other laws.
These laws required a
certificate to represent one-third the principal of the old bonds brought in
for funding, but gave "non-lnterest-bearlng certificates" to represent onethird the interest on old bonds.

DEBT LIMITATION.—Provisions
limiting the debt-making power of the

stitution of 1872; the sections
pertaining thereto being as follows:

except to meet
casual deficits In the revenue: to redeem a
previous liability of the State, to
suppress Insurrection, repel Invasion, or defend the State In time of warbut the payment of any liability other than that for the
ordinary expenses
of the State shall be
equally distributed over a period of at least twenty
years;

.

SECTION 6.—The credit of the State shall not.be
granted to, or In aid
any county, city, township, corporation
or person; nor shall the State
ever assume, or become
responsible for the debts or liabilities of any county,

of,

city, township, corporation, or person, nor shall the State ever hereafter
become a Joint owner or stockholder in any
company or association In thla
State or elsewhere, formed for any purpose whatever.
SECTION 7.—County authorities shall never assess taxes
In any one
year the aggregate of which shall exceed ninety-five cents
per one hundred
dollars valuation, except for the support of free schools:
payment of Indebt¬
edness existing at the time of the adoption of this
Constitution; and for the

payment of any Indebtedness with the Interest thereon created under the
succeeding section, unless such assessment with all questions Involving the
Increase of such aggregate, shall have been submitted to the vote of the
people of the county, and have received three-fifths of all the votes cast for
and against it.

[Note.—The legislature of 1904 passed a tax measure
evles after 1905 to 60 cents per $100 of valuation.
SECTION

tion, except

limiting county

8.—No

county, city, school district, or municipal corpora¬
cases where such corporations have already authorized their
Issued, shall hereafter be allowed to become Indebted, in any

in

manner, or for any purpose, to an amount, Including existing lndebtendess,
In the aggregate exceeding 5
per centum on the value of the taxable prop¬
erty therein, to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and County
taxes, previous to.the Incurring of such Indebtedness, nor without, at the

time, providing for the collection of a direct annual tax sufficient to

same

pay, annually, the Interest on such debt, and the principal thereof, within
and not exceeding thirty-four years; Provided That no debt shall be con¬
tracted under this section unless all questions
connected with the same

and have received
three-fifths of all the votes cast for and against the same.

[Noto.—1The Legislature of 1905 passed an Act prohibiting Indebtedness
per centum on the value of taxable property.
This Act

exceeding 2 H

went Into effect Jan. 1 1908.

Sea V. 80. p. 1930.

OF MUNICIPAL
BONDS.—Bonds of
municipalities are
personal property against the person holding them., If he be a
resident of the State.
Bonds held by banks are not subject to tax.
The
constitution forbids the creation of State debt; therefore there is no pro¬
vision regarding the taxation of State bonds.

LEGISLATURE meets biennially In odd years on the second
Wednesday
In January; seaslonr are limited to 45 days, but may be extended
provided
two-thirds of the members elected to each house concur.
TOTAL DEBT.—This State hat no debt.
In the settlement of the Vir¬
ginia debt one-third was set apart as the share belonging to West
Virginia
but the latter refused to assume the same.
In March 1911, however
the
U. S. Supreme Court held the State liable for a
principal debt of $7,182 507
and left the question of Interest for adjustment between the
parties. V 92
p. 074.
Justice Holmes of the U. S. Supreme Court In an opinion rendered
Oct. 30 1911 denied without prejudice the motion made
by the State of Vir¬
ginia to compel West Virginia to take immediate action to pay Its share of
the debt.
V. 93. p. 1274.
The Governor on April 18 1913 appointed a commission of
eleven members
In accordance with an Act passed by the 1913
Legislature to take up the
debt question with the Virginia Debt Commission.
V. 96, p. 1242.
A
motion was filed by the State of Virginia on
Sept. 30 1913 in the U. S.

Supreme Court asking for a final decree in the settlement of this suit.
The
commissioners appointed have been unable to agree, hence the
application
to the Court.

The Court has set April 13 1914 for a final

BONDS.—The Attorney-General ad¬
vised us under date of January 24 1912 that, "under our constitution
it is not competent for the Legislature to exempt from taxation State, county
or municipal
bonds, although occasionally, in providing for and issuing
county or municipal bonds, it is provided that they shall not be Subject to
county or municipal taxation.
In 1903, by Chapter 258 of the Acts of that
year, it was attempted to practically exempt from taxation State bonds
held by banks in this State, but the Supreme Court in the case of the State
National Bank against the City of Memphis, 116 Tennessee 641, held that
it was not competent for the Legislature under our constitution to exempt"

TAXATION

OF

STATE

AND

MUNICIPAL BONDS.—We were advised
Jan. 16 1912 by the Attorney-General, that each and
every Aot authorizing
the Issue of State bonds provides that they shall be
exempt from taxation
The Legislature declines to make such exemption in favor of
county and
olty bonds and It is thought probable that, under the constitution, they
cannot do so.

In 1903 the General Assembly passed an Act requiring the State Treas¬
urer to remove from the books In his office old
Blue Ridge RR. bonds

amounting to $37,000 (V. 84, p. 1134).
An effort was made to restrain
the Treasurer from complying with this Act.
The case was taken to the
State Supreme Court and dismissed by It, and later the U. S. Supreme Court
sustained this decision.
The State Supreme Court on Sept. 27 1907 handed down a decision up¬
holding the validity of certain bonds alleged to have been stolen from the
Treasurer's office.
V. 85, p. 879.
By this decision the bonds to
refund Brown consols of 1892 were increased by $14,500.
The 1912 Legis¬
lature passed an Act providing for the Issuance of 4%
gold coupon bond
and certificates of stock for the refunding of outstanding Brown consol.
bonds and stocks.
In V. 94, p. 718, this Act was given in full.
The valid¬
ity of the Act has been upheld by the State Supreme Court.

paid) was $3,851,153, and of this amount a large proportion was held by

In Dec. 1911 the Corporation
Foreign Bondholders of London (together with H. B. Hollins & Co. of
bankruptcy) consented to act

AGAINST

PAYMENT OF

BOND COO

PONS.—The State

Supreme Court In a decision handed down May 29 1911
1 1911 coupons on an issue of $600,000 State bonds

This reversed the judgment of Judge W. A.
Henry of the Seventh Circuit Court District, who on Apr. 5 1911 ordered
a writ of mandamus
commanding.the Auditor to Issue warrants for the
payment of the Jan. 1 1911 coupons.
See V. 92, p. 1049.

was correct.
V. 92, p. 1511.
The 1911 Legislature provided for
appropriation of $600,000 for the redemption of so much of the $600,000
bond issue of 1910 presented to the State Auditor between Jan. 1 and
Jan. 15 1912.
The interest coupons maturing at that time were also to be
paid.
We learn that $336,000 bonds were redeemed during that period.
Those still holding the 1910 bonds were given an opportunity to exchange
them for the new bonds also provided for by the Legislature in 1911.
These
new bonds mature in 20 years and bear 4% interest.

[The Constitution Coaiveihtional which convened Nov. 10 1913 has agreed

The bond article adopted

becomes effective without being submitted to a vote of the people, and au¬
thorizes

the Board of Liquidation at its discretion to issue 1 to 50-year
serial gold 4^% bonds on public advertisement, or temporary 5% bonds
running over 5 years, to be sold with or tiwhout advertisement.
It con¬
tains no limitation upon the price at which the bonds are to be sold.
See
V. 97, p. 1149 and 1524.
[On Oct. 22 1913 the Attorney-General of New York State rendered an
opinion holding that bonds of the State of Louisiana are legal Investments
for New York State savings banks.
See Item under New York State In
V. 97, p. 1227 and 1444; also item under Louisiana in V. 97, p. 1367.
In September 1889 It was discovered that a number of bonds had been
fraudulently Issued.
Part of these were subsequently recovered, but $308,500 consols so Issued ($303,500 being consols of 1874 and $5,000 Constitu¬
tional bonds) are still outstanding.
The State considers them "null and
void," and they are therefore not Included In the amount outstanding above.
There are also $421,935 (estimated) fraudulently Issued baby bonds out¬
standing.
/
There are, moreover, old bonds not recognized, and hence not fundable,
•mounting to $3,953,000.
These Include New Orleans Mobile A Texas 8%

the

Chairman
of the Arkansas Tax Commission, writes as follows cohcernlng the taxation of State and municipal bonds:
"We wish to state that under Seo. 1, Art. XVI. of our State constitution,
our State and municipalities are not allowed to Issue bonds.
Section 5 of
the Article also sets out the exemption of this State.
Those exemptions
are also enumerated under Section
6887, Kirby's Digest.
The tax In our
State Is a general property tax.
There are very few exemptions; as cited
above, no evidences of indebtedness as mentioned by you are exempt from
taxation.

"In 1907 we submitted a constitutional amendment to our
people asking
that municipalities be allowed to issue bonds.
It failed of passage by an

overwhelming vote.
All bonds and Indebtedness, the nature of which you
mentlonj were subject to assessment and therefore liable for tax;
however,
I will state In this connection that

we have numerous Improvement
districts,
schools, levees, bridges, drainage, &c., which under special Acts are
to borrow money or issue bonds for their completion.
Bonds of
this character do not seem to come clearly under the
prohibitory mandate
of our Constitution and for that reason these districts are allowed to proceed
In this manner, and while it Is true these bonds are evidences of
Indebtedness,
they are not exempt from taxation.
For the above-mentioned constitu¬
tional reasons our Legislature has passed no law allowing State or munici¬
palities to Issue bonds."

was authorized between the City Wa¬
ter Power Co. and the City of Austin,
dated Sept. 22 1911, under which the
entire property of the water company
w*l be owned by the city upon the
completion of the required payment
of $64,800 per annum for 25 years.
The payment of this amount is made
one-half every six months directly to
the trustee
