THREE MILLIONS
INNCOME TAKE
People of Kencsha Count
Pay Vast Amount to
Government Today.
FEW ASK MORE TIM

Kenosha settled with Uncle Sam t
day for the second installment of IL
income taxes for the year 1920 and
was estimated by local collectors thu
Kenosha paid to the government as il
share of this installment of the take
more than three million dollars. NJ
all the money demanded by the govern
ment was paid and lot of people ha
to hunt out the money lenders in orde
to get the money necessary to meet th
second installment At that it was dc
clared that only few people in Keno
sha asked the government to make 3
extension of the time for the paymer
of the tax.
"Six or seven people have come t
me and fled applications for an e.
tension of time for the payment of tn
tax" said the local collector of inter
nal revenue this morning. "They dc
clared that they hadn't the money an
that they could not raise it and uade
the law they will be entitled to
extension of the time until the first
September. The collections here hav
not been large and have been runnin
six or seven thousand dollars a de-
as the time Tor the payment of the in
stallment came to a close"
Many Believed to be Delinquent.
1t is declared that practically all Q
the larger payers of the income Is
who have found it impossible to NEE
the demands for the installment, hay
taken the matter up with the collecto
of internal revenue at Milwaukee Col
lector wilkinson, former member
the state senate from Bayfield, who wa
named this week to take the place mad
vacant by the resignation of Burt vii
liams, is expected to take up his worl
after the close of the collection Of tn,
present installment of the tax. TIL,
word has been given out that his order
for the collections will be much NOR,
stringent than those which have beer
in force here.
People who failed to pay the install
ments today and who failed to get al
extension Of the time for payment, vii
be subject to penalties and it is eX
bected that they will be notified q
these penalties within few days.
The amount of the income tax paic
by Kenosha is said to be about one
fifth of the total amount collected b.
the government in the Wisconsin dis
trict.

Laboratory Cases.

need here in order that the tables may
be secured for next yeats work.
5-Laboratory Cases.
1t is suggested that the chemistry
materials now located under the stair
way be brought out into the main
laboratory and placed in large case
which should be constructed along the
side wall of the room. The case now
occupying this place can we'll be re-
moved to the opposite side of the wall
from the position which it now oecu-
pies.
6-Sanitary Stair Corners.
The sweeping of the stairs although
satisfactorily done at present, could
be more readily accomplished and more
thoroughly done were sanitary stair
corners placed in the corners on each
of the stair treads. These materials
are inexpensive and are of great as
,sistance.
7-Sweeping Compound.
The sweeping compound that is kent
in the basement of the building should
be placed in closed metal container
having metal cover. This arrange
ment of course guarantees that the
sweeping compound will not dry out.
The open barrel which is now used
does not meet the requirements of the
industrial commission.
S-Emery Grinder.
It was observed that the emery wheel
used in the woodworking room is I'M
satisfactory in that it cannot be used
without danger. 1t has been suggested
before, | believe, that this grinder be
replaced by a better and safer type
of grinder. Mr.. Kirn of that depart
ment is familiar with the approved
types of emery grinders. The hazard
which exists through the use of the
present grinder should not be allowed
to- continue.
Soap Dispensers.
Sanitary soap dispensers should be
provided in the boys toilet. Liquid
soap should be used in all such cases.
Attention should be given also to the
provision of drinking water for each
of the floors of the building.
1O-Hnstruction Improvement.
Some materials are needed for the
improvement of instruction in CONNER
cial geography Such a course should
not be text book course and should
be made as definite and concrete as
possible.
l am confident that when your board
has given attention to the items rec
commended by Supervisor Touton, an
additional impetus will be had for the
doing of the highest type of work. I
am glad, indeed, to add my commenda-
tion to the favorable report which Su-
pervisor Touton has submitted. as
sure you of my continued, interest in
the work which is being carried on I'M
der your general direction. Yours very
truly, c. P. CARY, state superintend-
emit of public instruction.

Treasurer Starts Two Day
Sale With Only a Small
Number of Bidders.
COUNTY GETS MOST
County Takes It at a Hundred
Per Cent Was Announcement
as No One Buys.

Nobody wants it, the county will
take it-hundred per cent" This got
TO be the monotonous statement of Tom
Scott, the county treasurer, at the
annual sale of the tax titles of Keno
sha county and gave promise of con-
tinuing for at least a day and possibly
two. For the first time in years Keno
sha county tax titles went a begging
and during the whole morning sale
there was not even a sign of competi-
ton for the titles and the larger part
OF them went back to the county with
the understanding that the county will
collect the tax if possible and with it
the ten per cent penalty provided by
law. The county, it was forecasted,
will hold by far the largest amount Of
the tax titles sold. There was no sug-
gestion of the old days when men
and women wed with each other to
buy the tax titles and bid the liens
down to the one-tenth of one per cent
off the right first foot of the left
quarter section.
No Money for Investment.
"Tax titles are wonderful invest
ment and tax titles in Kenosha county
are especially attractive" declared one
of the old timers who was present at
the sale this morning, "but the people
haven't any money to invest. The men
and women who usually buy up these
tax titles have had too much of a
struggle to raise the money to pay
their own taxes to be able to buy the
titles of lands where taxes remain I'M
paid. For the most part the people
who are buying tax titles today are
simply protecting the rights of the
property secured in other years. None
of the so-called sharks were present
at the sale today and nearly every
bid made for purchases was made by
Kenosha county people"
Biggest Sale On Record. q.
1t was the biggest tax sale in the
history of Keinosha county and it was
evident before the sale was well under
way that it would be impossible to com
plete it today. 1t may last all day
tomorrow and it was expected that the
county clerk would relieve the county
treasurer as auctioneer during the
afternoon. There were nearly thous-.
and pieces of property Of which the
taxes had not been paid and the total
amount of the tax to be collected
through the sale was $62,375.34. This
year there was property offered in
every town in the county and in every
ward of the city and in some cases
the amounts claimed for taxes ran into
the hundreds of dollars. Few of the
tax payers, rated as delinquents, were
on hand for the sale.
