City to MakeProperty PayFor Excise Tax

Hirshfield Says Checking Upof Reduced Assessments

I Will Add $5,000,000Revenue on Real Estate

Wide Campaign Planned

Seeming Irregularities ToBe Investigated in Effortto P r eve n t Deficiency

Rectification of improper tax assess¬ments will go far toward reimbursingNew York for loss of revenue from ex¬cise taxes, according to municipal taxofficials yesterday. Investigation byCommissioner of Accounts Hirshfieldhas shown that improper assessmentreductions had been made and ignoredfor scores of years, it was asserted.These rectifications, Commissioner

Hirshfield estimated, would add $200,-000,000 to tho tax roll and yield thecity an increased yearly revenue of $5,-000,000.

"1 have investigated only one dis¬trict of the city," said Mr. Hirshfield,"but in that section alone I find largeproperty owners have had their assess-mentí reduced $400,000. In every in¬stance where a property owner hasbeen called before me to testify it hasbeen established that he paid a so-called assessment reducer for procur¬ing the reduction. There are nine otherdistricts in the city. Each will be in¬vestigated and the proper rectificationsmade."These assessment reducers have

made a business of going to propertyowners and saying, 'Von are payingtoo much in taxes. 1 can have yourassessment lowered. Will you pay me

| 50 per cent of what I save you on yournext year's tax bill ?'

Reminded of David Harum"Heal estate owners remind me a

good deal of David Harum. They maybe men of the utmost probity and thehighest standing, but when it comesto evading taxes or raising rents, likeDavid Harum in a horse trade, every-tiling goes. :"When a property owner pays some

outsider after the assessment upon hisproperty is lowered, if is but naturalto inquire how it happened. The deputytax commissioner says ne reduced theassessment on the property to equalizeassessments with other property, orbecause he did not estimate the prop-erty worth as much as in previousyears."Tax department officials announcedthat the methods of every commission-

er would be investigated and a propervaluation of the properties arrived at.They said six deputy tax commission¬ers recently had bean transferred toother districts.Arrangements have been made bythe Department, of Taxes and MayorHylan to have any redaction of assess¬

ment in the canvas.* for next yearwhich is now going on reported week¬ly to the 'lax Commissioners. Thedeputy commissioners will be com-pelled to give in detail reasons for,reductions or failure to assess in-creases. The work of each will beclosely watched.

To (heck Up FraudsThe Tax Commissioners, it was an¬

nounced, are united in their determi-]nation to check fraudulent reductionsand. see that proper and equitable as¬sessment is given every parcel of realestate. Mayor Dylan and Commission¬er Hirshfield have pledged thir assist¬ance to the Tax Commissioners inevery way.

"Real estate will he assessed at afair valuation." said Mr. Hirshfield."That moans the holders of large ex-pensive parcels will pay in proportionto the small owner. Fancy propertywill be made to pay its just proportionof the tax burden and the home ownerand proprietor of small parcels of realproperty, who have heretofore paidmore than their just share, will getthe benefit."

Holland MayRefuse to GiveUp Ex-Kaiser

Dutch Generally Saidto Hold Wilhelm NotResponsible for Crimes,and Not Extraditable

New York TribuneSiJirial Cabla Service(Copyright, 1013, N'ew York Tribune Inc.)LONDON, May 2. The announce¬ment that the former Kaiser and othermen responsible to the laws of civilizedwarfare will be brought to trial hasgiven rise to the question here whetherthere might be any possibility of Hol¬land refusing to give up (lie ex-Emperor.Investigation shows clearly that such

a possibility exists. Dutch circles inLondon firmly expressed the opinionthat the extradition of the formerKaiser is impossible. They point outthat the extradition laws do not in¬clude political crimes.

It is the legal opinion in the Nether¬lands that the Kaiser is not guilty ofany crimes definitely mentioned in ex¬tradition treaties with Holland. More¬over, they point out that if crimeswere committed thev certainly werecommitted in Germany. Thereforethat is the country whence a requestfor the extradition of the late warlord must. come. They express doubtwhether it will be found legal to claimthat the Kaiser's crimes were commit¬ted in Fiance and Belgium or on thehigh seas.

Holds He Is Not GuiltyOne well informed authority said

that Holland's attitude toward theaffair is that the Kaiser was notguilty, but was the responsible party,and that there lies a distinction whichthe Allies perhaps have not alwaysmade. It seems from what can begathered here that Holland will dis¬pute any demand for the formerKaiser's extradition.An Allied request for such action,

however, would be an entirely differentmatter. Such a request would be care¬

fully considered by the Dutch Parlia¬ment. The success of such a requestwould depend greatly upon its tone

Belgians Protest Peace Terms1JARIS, May 2 (By The Associated Press)..The Belgian delegation

to tho peace qpnference is expressing- dissatisfaction over theterms of the preliminaries for peace as they affect Belgium. Noneof the territorial claims of Belgium has been granted, except that forMalmedy, in Rhenish Prussia, a short distance south of Aix-la-Chapelle, the population of which before the war was largely Walloon..Malmedy will revert to Belgium. The territory on the left bank ofthe Scheldt River and Maastricht and the Limbourg peninsula arenot mentioned in the terms.

Of the $500,000,000 already mentioned as an immediate financialindemnity for Belgium, more than half the amount has merely beenplaced to Belgium's credit in Allied countries as part payment of warloans. No provision has been made for the recall by Germany ofthe six billion marks (about §1,500,000,000) which were left in Belgiumand are now lying in Belgian banks and vaults, bearing no interestand unproductive, as the circulation of the mark in Belgium is notpermitted. "The amount of six billion marks represents virtually thetotal Belgian liquid wealth assets," said a member of the Belgiandelegation to-dav.

tM. Delacroix, the Belgian Premier, arrived in Paris this morning,bringing a message of protest from the Belgian Senate.

Fear of Farther Delay RemovedThe announcement to-day thai

German peace delega'es will not bepermitted to discuss the provisioithe treaty except by written m< no-' randa and that, they will be given onlya maximum of fifteen days for con¬sideration of the treaty has removedmuch fear of further delay in peacenegotiations. The fact that PresidentWilson is lir.ed up with Lloyd Georgeand Clemenceau against parleyingwith the Germans is considered anindication that the President has be¬come desirous of standing with GreatBritain ami France in presenting afirm front against the Germans andwinding up the peace negotiations .,

a basis satisfactory to both GreatBritain and France. The unusualspeed in concluding the Shantungquestion ¡n favor of .Japan Is takenas further evidence that. Pre ¡denlWilson is no longer standing for arigid interpretation of the fourteenpoints.

PARIS, May 2 By The AssociatedPress). The Council of Three to-daysettled the status of th«- Kiel Cana'.Germany probably will retain proprie¬torship on the waterway, but tolls forpassage through it will be levied un¬der international control.

Fate of German Ships Fndecidedi he naval terms 'o be embodied in

tiie peace treaty with Germany, whichfinally have been completed, do notprovide for the sinking of the largerGerman warships. The disposition ofthese vessels is left to be decided uponlater by ' i1 e Allied and associatedpowers.

It is felt trat the final disposition o{the enemy ships is purely an inter-Al¬lied question, and rot one for inclusionin the treaty, which provides only foithe surrender of the vessels to thepowers, which will decide their ult'..mate fate. This action is regarded as

indicating that the warships will noilie sunk or destroyed.

After the enemy ships are dividedamong the Allies each power will de¬cide on the disposition of its own quotaThe general impression here is that tinFrench and Italians will retain theiishare and incorporate the vessels intheir present fleet?, while, the Britisnand American tendency inclines to th^destruction of their o.uota.
