TWO OFFICERS Get
PRAISE FOR WORK
FLEMING AND MUSSELWHITE
COMMENDED ON SPECIAL TAXES.

L Ordinary w. P. Fleming and Tax
Collector w. ]. Musselwhite of Crisp
are specially commended by Comp
troller General w. A. Wright for their
work in Crisp in the collection of the
special taxes for 1919.
But these officers again warn you
that IL you, fail to register and pay, a
thing which you should have done
on January 1st, you are subject to
Indictment and double fine for fail
ure. The sale of business does not
register the new owner, nor does it
pay the taxes Watch yourself on
these special taxes.
Here is an extract from letter
of Comptroller General Wright to
Ordinary Fleming dated April 9th:
You will observe that the privilege
acquired by the payment of special
or occupation tax can not be trans
ferred, but each person or firm en-
gagged in business which is subject
to specific tax is required to reg
ister, and pay the tax in full for the
fiscal year for which IL is levied.
Il beg to say that your report for
the first quarter of 1919, together
with that of the tax collector, shows
that in no county in the state is the
law with reference to registration and
payment of an occupation tax being
more efficiently or intelligently en-
forced"

He says his officer in charge asked
him just before going in where he be-
longed When he gave the informa-
ton that he was a machine gun man,
the officer added eyes, of course,
with the suicide bunch" And then
he coolly asked Walter if he had told
his folks goodbye.
