The U S Supreme Court upheld the front foot paying rule, affirming Missouri cities may fund street, sewer and sidewalk projects with a mix of general and abutting assessments. The Barber Asphalt Pavement Co. suit over Forest Avenue paving affirmed local taxation methods and thus allows contractors to collect payments under the law.

Wizard of Wall Street George Gould Makes Seven Dollars Per Tick
New York April 30 The Wizard of Wall Street is George Gould. He has doubled the Gould estate from 70 to 140 million dollars since his father’s death and much of the gain since last November. He earns about seven dollars every tick of the clock in working hours, roughly fifty thousand dollars per hour while the stock market is open. Gould’s fortune, second only to Rockefeller and Harriman perhaps, comes from steady buying of his own railroad stocks rather than tricks. His influence in the American railroad world grows as he controls a vast system including Missouri Pacific Iron Mountain Texas Pacific Denver Rio Grande Rio Grande Western Wabash St Louis and Southwestern, with ties to Southern Pacific and its Asia trade.
