Within the next six weeks the
Marion county court expects to un-
dertake the task of reimbursing
more than 5000 taxpayers who
are entitled to refunds from tax
payments made on the 1919 tax
rolls during the past four months.
After considerable delay involved
by extra work, the sheriff's office
has completed the refund roll
which calls for the repayment of
$13,369.19 in amouRts varying from
one cent to a hundred dollars.
At the present time the offic
Of County Clerk u. G. Boyer Is
preparing the 6562 checks. This,
in itself, is no small undertaking,
there being more than thousand

counting six checks to the sheet.
Tax Levy Fails
The refund results from failure
of the special 1920 tax levy of
$4S,000 against which a perma-
