REPLIES TO CRITIC
Assessor Urges Inquiry to
DisprOVe Charges.
DELINQUENTS ARE NOTIFIED
Statement Made by W. 8. Brnnson
characterized by ). r. Petty as
Unjust and RIdicuIOus-LRw Allows
Two Years After Sale TO Redeem
Property with Interest.

In answer TO charges made by W. s.
Branson AT a meeting Of the Northeast
Citizens Association Monday night. that
real estate agents "roost' at the assessor
Office and get inside tips on auction sales,
and that a conspiracy exists between
these agents and the assessors once, J.
T. Petty. assistant assessor in charge OF
the arrears division. yesterday made the
following statement:
Il am willing that the arrears division.
at which these charges are aimed, should
be investigated thoroughly and preferably
by a committee from the Northeast Citi-
zens' Association. with the gentleman who
made the charges, W. S. Branson, as
chairman. and the Office will be glad TO
abide by the decision Of that committee"
characterized ms Ridiculous.
Mr. Petty characterizes the statements
made by Mr.. Branson as unjust and
ridiculous. especially with reference 20 a
conspiracy between his Office and real
estate agents He added:
In fact. it is so much the other way
that one OF the principal buyers OF prop
erty at tax sales does not even speak TO
NE. because as he claims, on account Of
my undue activity in trying 10 save the
property for the owners"
In this connection he mentioned an IL
lustration. and said one OF the largest
purchasers Of this class OF property re-
Gently came 20 him and requested list
OF all the taxpayers who had not re-
deemed their property. so he could make
selections from the list Upon Mr.. Petty
refusing the list. the real estate men took
the matter up with Assessor Richards,
who sustained Mr. Petty ir his refusal
The statement that the owners are not
notified when their property is IN arrears,
is also characterized by Mr.. Petty as
absolutely without foundation.
Owners First Notified.
/ In the system used in keeping track OF
delinquent taxpayers. a notice is first
: sent to the taxpayers who are in arrears
three months before the sale All posi-
bic means are taken TO learn the ad-
dresses Of the owners.
/ The next step is the preparation OF the
delinquent tax list. notice Of which Is
given in the public prints one month in
advance OF sale. The law allows two
years in which property may be re-
deemed upon payment OF interest from
/ the date Of sale. Before the redemption
period expires a notice is sent 10 each de-
| llnquent to the effect that unless he PAYS
!up the deed will be issued 10 the pur-
/ chaser at the tax sale as required by law.
