';,,!, n reduction was accomplished nt
the same time that the public revenues
were increased.
"Pennsylvania is facing one of the
gravest financial crises In its history,"
raid Mr. Iteese. "An entire breakdown
In its financial program Is Inevitable
unless the vast mineral wealth of the
(Unto is nde P"? itH slinrc et tnx"
Htles, as we have begun te make It de
In Schuylkill County. I ray 'begun,'
as the coal lands of this county could
easily be assessed $1,000,000,000 In-
xicau et nnir n billion, ami the taxing
power still be within the limit of the
law.
''State finances are Affected In the
same manner as In Schuylkill county,
where with the wealthiest coal lnnds in
the world, net enough taxei were levied
te keep the hcIioeI districts from bank
ruptcy or the public highways In re
pair. "In the past five years 1 have made
thorough investigations for the State of
its mineral wealth In nearly every ceun-i
ty within the confines of the Common
wealth and I have been convinced that
a proper valuation of these lands for
taxation purposes Is the way end the
only way In which the State can get
out of fts present Slough of Despond."
While with the State Mr. Iteese
worked In collaboration with his Ren,
Captain Jehn F. Itcene, who is new con
nected with the Department of Internal
Affairs, and the utatistlcs he Is fur
nishing of Pennsylvania's great min
eral wealth are attracting wide atten
tien. A separate book en each county
of the State Is being issued, with the
mineral deposits summed up in com
plete detail.
Cantain Reese's statistics show that
Pennsylvania has 42,000,000.000 tens
of bituminous coal in place, which
would last at the present rate of min
ing, nearly 300 years. "If these figures
seem vast, it may be pointed out that
the United States Geological Survey es
timate Pennsylvania' bituminous coal
deposits at 78,000,000,000 tens.
It 1b expected that both Mr. Reese
and his son will be called before the
newly appointed Ceal Commission te
testify as te existing- mining conditions
in Pennsylvania.
