City council keeps fire insurance tax with no repeal
Harrison Clarkson urged repeal of the $26 per year fire insurance tax but the majority on ways and means rejected the plan. A minority report by Councilman Stephens accompanied the decision. Clarkson proposed a 20 percent cut in dwellings and churches as a reciprocity measure, claiming it would shift $2,000,000 in premiums while the city would net $1,300 from the license tax. The matter drew strong debate and the council maintained the existing license tax. City expenses and payroll for city officers were itemized in the appropriation ordinance.
