that the compensation was inadequate

would seem, been recognized BY some
Of the tax collectors Of the past, for
there have been many dollars Of back
taxes on the books Tax Collector
Alfred Bonneville has collected hun
dreds of dollars in back taxes. He
received compensation for this at the
hands Of the council, for it was extra
work. It is plain TO see that If a tax
collector allows some of the harder
bills TO collect to remain uncollected
it means loss to the municipality far
beyond the extra compensation Tax
Collector Morse saved the town s23s
last year in the collection Of personal
taxes. He receives, this year, nun
dred dollars for collection Of the per
sonal tax SO that in this saving alone
he saved enough to pay MS salary and

and have the books cleared up than to

dollars and have from five hundred to
