These figures show the taxpayers of Oakland recede $450,000 more each year than they pay into the county treasury.

In school apportionment there is another large gain. Likewise, through use of the receiving hospital, care of feebleminded, county jail, detention home and Associated Charities, the laving to Oakland, because of the excess of benefits over taxes paid, la $14350.
