With BAD CHECKS
One Collector Has Many
Returned From Banks
Marked "NO Funds"

CERTIFIED NEXT YEAR

CITY Councilman Oscar G. Draper,
chairman of the finance committee,
startled members of Council last night
when he stated that real estate agents
and large property owners had flooded
fhe office of one of the tax collectors
with bad checks in payment for their
1916 taxes. Mr. Draper made this an
pouncement when the report of City
Treasurer William J.. Highfeld showed
The bank balances of the city to he
eal6 .722.2l. which Is considered the
high water mark for the cty's finances.
AlT. Draper said the tax collectors had
informed him that the number OF checks
received for taxes through the mails had
been greater than any previous year, and
an many cases the checks were returned
from the banks marked "no funds Mr.
Draper said these checks were from the
FbiV fellows and he minated tha'
Council next year mag order the col
lectors to refuse to accept anything but
certified checks
Councilman Draper said that 1t was
not right to expect the collectors "a
epend their time running after people
who had given checks for their taxes
when there were no funds to meet then
at the bank and that he thought the
public should work with the tax collec'
