NEW LAW MAKES
CHANGE IN TAX
PAYMENTS
MAY PAY TOWN TAXES
IN TWO INSTALLMENTS
So Local Officials Think, but
Tax Commission is Asked
for Definite Ruling

Under the law passed by the
third legislature the assessment
of all city and town property
shall be made by the-county as.
SCISSOR, and the collections must
be made Ivy the county treasur-
Ell, vino is ex-off;cio collecto, for
the county.
A former legislature passed
a law providing lor the payment
of County tax,y in two semi
annual payments, taxes BE- cpm
i.'g delinquent. for the ii =.
half. the fir<l Monday in No
vember, and I'd half May 1st.
For town taxes there was no
provision for such payment, and
town taxes had to be paid all at
one time, but did not become de-
linquent until the third Monday
in November. The new law pro-
vides as follows:
"All provisions of the tax and
revenue laws of this state, ap-
plying to state and county tax
es, shall equally apply to city
and town taxes, and persons to
whom assessed and other per-
sons, and with like force and
effect"
From this provision it would
seem that now one-half of the
town taxes may be paid between
the first Monday in SEPTEMBER
all the taxes become
due-and the first Monday in
November, when they teconle
delinquent; and the remaining
half between the first Monday
in March and the first day Of
May.
1t has been a question wheth-
er this is the intent Of the law,
but County Attorney Hardy,
Wager and Treasurer
Burgoon, who have had the mat
ter under discussion, are of the
opinion that the portion of the
section quoted gives the city or

paying in two installments.
