Will Now Have to be Stopped.

A m practice in real estate
deals of making the record read sin
consideration of 81 and other valu-
ables' will now have to stop. It is a
result of the new revenue law for the
collection of war taxes. The old way
of making out deeds to real estate and
of having them SO recorded was re-
sorted to in order to keep from the
public the exact price paid for proper
ty. Every person who records sales
OF real estate IN that manner will be
in danger of arrest and a heavy fine,
as the act will be considered in law as
being in the nature Of an attempt to
evade the payment of the revenue tax.
The tax is so cents for $500 or under,
and so cents for every additional $500
or fractional part thereof, of the value
of the real estate sold. Being curious
to know what should be done in case
persons desiring to represent sales as
being for 81, ETC., a leading real estate
dealer of Waukegan, Illinois, recently
wrote to ascertain. He was told to
the effect that collectors will I'M
doubtedly be instructed to investigate
all cases Of ST deeds, and where it
was found that the law was purposely
evaded, prosecuting and penalty, as
provided by law, will quickly follow"
