Sinking funds urged to reduce state debt and cut fares
A speaker argues for establishing a sinking fund from surplus revenues to steadily repay state debt. Paying off borrowed funds would save about 11,472,000 annually, enabling lower fares and freight rates for farmers. The idea likens municipal borrowing to parliamentary finance, claiming past booms and busts might have been milder with such a policy.
