About This Book

A volume of the Pittsburgh Survey, this 1915 report explains how a system involving land classes and ward rates in Pittsburgh added up to an unfair system that placed the heaviest tax burden on the lower class. It offers recommendations for reform.

SHELBY M. HARRISON was director of the Department of Surveys and Exhibits of the Russell Sage Foundation.
