PREL lMINARY STEPS W.
TAKEN IN TAX SUIT

albuquerque, N. NJ, Jan. 2S.-Attor-
ney Il. l.. Medler has returned from
Santa Fe where last week he appear
ed as counsel for Dona Ana County
in the tax suit that the county has
instituted against Numa. Raymond a
'ormer resident of Las Cruces, but
now living in Geneva Switzerland, to
recover back taxes amounting to over
s150,000 which it alleges are due.
The action came on before Judge
Parker of the Third District on the
question raised by the defense as to
the statute of limitations as applied
to back taxes. 1t was argued that
the taxes due for more than seven
years could not be collected, whereas
the plaintiff seeks to go back in its
action for lwenty years. Judge Park
er held that the question of the col
lection of these taxes should be sub
ject to argument on the merits of the
case.
The case will come up for hearing
on its merits late in February.
