BENEFIT ASSESSMENTS LEGAL.
Taxes Must he Paid. Before SubdIvI-
sion Can Be Recorded.

The Attorney for the District yesterday
submitted TO the Commissioners an opin-
ion relative to the subdivision of certain
lots fronting on Sherman Avenue L. NJ.
Saunders, the owner of the property de-
sired TO subdiyide the six lots Of block 2
into eighteen smaller holdings, on which
a purchaser intends to build houses.
Last year, under an act of Congress-
Sherman Avenue was extended and wild
ened. The jury of condemnation submit
ted its findings some months ago, but the
awards have not been legally confirmed
as a suit was brought to test the Leg lItv
of the assessment of benefits
In view of the litigation Mr.. Saunders
asked permission TO record the subdiyi-
sion and furnish a bond for the payment
of the taxes, amounting to about 81 900
in case the assessment should be declared
valid by the court.
Attorney Duvall. after reciting the law
applicable to the case and reviewing the
results Of the condemnation proceedings
gives 1t as his opinion that the beneGt
assessments are within the law. and their
payment is necessary condition to the
approval and record OF the proposed sub
division.

from the parents, but may be from some
