in the dominion is great bear in the north west territories town of uxbridge tax rate 53 mills if the estimated receipts and ex penditures for the town of ux bridge are adopted as submitted to the council of the neighboring town the ratepayers will have to meet a tax rate of 53 mills this year an increase over 1949 of nine mills according to a statement pub lished last week in the uxbridge paper setting out in detail the re ceipts and expenses proposed for the year it is interesting to note the cost of services in one town as compar ed with another and in this regard it is noted cost of policing uxbridge falls heavily on the tax payers who are called to pay out for services of provincial police 4727 the town gets back in fines in the neighbor hood of 700 but policing is still expensive two officers are main tained for night and day service whereas in stouffvihe an 800 per year water service tells the whole cost to householders in ux bridge the higher 15 charge is not all the ratepayers are assessed 1750 for the use of hydrants for fire purposes which are the pro perty of the water works depart ment this is a charge that is legal but was wiped out in stouff- ville years ago when it was found the water works department did not need the extra money to meet debt charges and maintenance costs many towns impose a charge for hydrant rental which is just another tax needed by them to maintain the system administration costs are 900 paid for services of councillors in uxbridge while the assessor gets 450 auditors 250 collector 400 clerktreasurer 1250 the clerk- treasurer does not handle hydro since the hydro in that town is conducted under a commission with a paid secretary the new sewer system costs the taxpayers nearly nine mills plus the rental charges against each user which apparently does not raise enough to meet the indebted ness school maintenance costs in uxbridge as everywhere else are burdensome running in this case over 12 mills while it is difficult to read a fin ancial statement of this brevity without fuller explanation the above facts are generally correct as far as we can understand the re port uxbridge with its proposed tax rate of 53 mills will put up in money 63126 of which around 25000 goes to meet debenture charges but despite this heavy toll on the pockets of the taxpayers the town has domestic water and sewers and by which it hopes to attract industry other towns argue that industry while provid ing employment for some always bring in its wake high taxes so take your choice those who have families to raise will go for the high tax town but people of more mrs annie jackson a resident of toronto for 20 years mrs annie victoria greig jackson widow of james jackson died in toronto on monday funeral ser vice was held at
