PLAN REAL ESTATE TAX LEVY Chief of Public Works Understood to Believe Main Thoroughfares Running From City to Country Should Bo First Improved. Councilman Roden's -plan lor a $2. 500,000 bond issue for the general im provement of the streets xof Richmond will be taken up by the City Coun cil's Committee on Finance on Mon day night at 8 o'clock. Mayor Alnslle and Director of Public Works Boiling: have been invited to meet with the committed, and it is understood that several alternate plans will be pro posed carrying into effect the same general idea. Mr. Roden's idea is for the city to issue the $2,503,000 of ten-year bonds to be sold at the rate of $500,000 a year for live years, and that a special real estate tax bo levied to meet the interest on the bonds and provide for their complete redemption within fif teen years. >'o Incrcnnc Before 1020. While the increase in taxes would not fall against real estate until next year, the Department of Public Works, if the plan is adopted, could proceed to get bids and put under contract some of -the improvements that are most needed. It is understood that Mr. Boiling believes that first attention should be paid to the main thoroughfares that lead from the city into the country, in a recent official report Mr. Boiling declared that never in his official ex perience had he known the streets In the older parts of the city t6 be In as poor condition as they are in this year, as little but patchwork repairs has been done since 1915. The budget appropriation for streets is less now than it was ten years ago. when the area of the city was comparatively sinn 11. Strong; Sentiment for Insue. Sentiment for a bond Issue for streets is undoubtedly strong in the Council, and the fight will come on the distribution of the funds which will be derived from floating the bonds. It. !s understood that several of the city legislators have stated that they will not vote for a bond Isbuo unless given definite assurance that their sec tions of the city will be given a cor tain proportion of the contemplated paving. It is probable that In the legislation connected with the author izing of the bond issue an attempt will be made to direct where the funds shall be expended. This is certain to cause much debate, and as It will be difficult for the different interests to get together the bond issue may be delayed. IN MAD DASH ALONG GRACE STREET TRUCK HITS 3 CARS E. K.
