<186 DORTMUND. Dortmund makes use of its power in regard to the two upper grades ; and taxed in 1904 2,113 persons with incomes between £21 and £33, and 6,355 persons with incomes from £33 to £45. The effect of this double taxation of incomes is that the following taxes fall upon small incomes in Dortmund : — lucerne.

Every head of a family or person living alone is bound to contribute to one or other of the religious “communes,” unless by an express act he has announced his withdrawal therefrom, this express act being a notification to the municipal authorities ; little use is made of the latter right. These church taxes are for the Evangelicals 25 to 40 per cent., the Roman Catholics 50. to 60 per cent, (in each case according to parishes), the Old Catholics 55 per cent., and the Jews 60 per cent. According to the foregoing scale a Dortmund workman, with no children, earning £80 a year pays £l Is. in State taxes, £2 2a. in local taxes, and if an Evangelical as much perhaps as 8a. 5d. in church taxes, if a Roman Catholic as much as 12s. 76?., making on an average £3 13s. 6c?. in the aggregate, equal to 4*5 per cent, of his income. Retail Prices. Groceries and other Commodities. In addition to the co-operative stores carried on for the benefit of the workmen employed at the “ Union ” works, there is in the town a large Co-operative Society of the usual working-class type. It had in the year 1905-6 over 3,000 members (more than half of them being miners), seven shops, and a turn-over of £22,180, in addition to £10,400 of business done with contractors in goods not sold in the stores. There is also a co-operative bakery which had 28 partners at the close of 1906, and had a turn-over during that year or £5,826. Its trade is a cash trade, and the society complains that the credit system encouraged by the private bakers hinders rapid progress. The ordinary meals of the better class of workmen are :— (1) Early breakfast—coffee and rolls ; (2) Breakfast (in the forenoon interval)—coffee (or beer), rolls, and perhaps sausage ; (3) Dinner—potatoes, vegetables, and meat ; (4) Afternoon meal—coffee (less frequently beer), and bread-and-butter sandwich ; and (5) Supper—some combination of sausage or bacon, cheese, vegetables, and potatoes. The less well-to-do workmen get fresh meat two or three times a week. Potatoes in various forms are a standard dish, and amongst the poorer classes constitute often the chief part of the mid-day meal. The bread eaten by the working classes is chiefly black and white, with a certain amount of grey bread. There is also a special kind of bread known as
