Webb Williams, tax assessor, this
morning. 81 have directed all OF my
deputies to rush their work through
md be prepared to turn over the rec
ords to the county board at the time
for it's meeting"
Mr.. Williams is trying to make a
borough assessment of the county
md he has instructed his deputies to
ee personally every taxpayer whom
they assess. One of his strongest eff
forts is directed toward making the
poll tax assessment reliable and &C,
curate. He is going to weed out the
thousands of names that are carried
on the rolls where the parties are not
liable for the payment Of the tax.
Every personally taxpayer must
lso make out and swear to his tax
schedule. Mr.. Williams is insisting
upon that. This year only the changes
in real estate, the personal property
and the polls are assessable, but he
believes that il he can secure approx
imately correct poll tax assessment
lists and personally lists that next
year when he comes to making the
assessment of real estate his burdens
will be very much lighter.
The county board will meet on the
first Monday to go over the assess
ments. This board will probably be
in session for month.
