Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Proposed Tax Increases for the City of Chicago, the Board of Education, and Cook County
The present financial condition of the City government and of the various other tax-levying agencies in Chicago and their demands upon the Legislature for more revenue and increased taxing powers should arouse every citizen and taxpayer in the community. The increased cost of government due to the necessity for raising the salaries and wages of employes and the higher cost of commodities, coupled with a heavy loss in revenue heretofore received by the City from saloon licenses, has made it necessary for the City, the Board of Education and the County to obtain additional revenue from taxes.
