Democrats Scan
 Property Lists

But 500 certificates of error have been issued by the assessors since the first of the year, it was announced today. During the Republican re- gime between 1900 and 2,oo0 certff- cates of error were issued by the tax commissioner and in such great num- bers that a scandal was imminent in the tax commissioners office. One of the big issues in the last cam paign was the issuing Of certificate of errors to friends of the last ad- miniStration. Through an act of the legislature the tax com missioner's of- fee was abolished and the assessors named in it's stead.
 The certificates of error that are now issued are corrections, it was ex- list automobiles Of different year and model than they really are. These mistakes are found in the tax come missioner's office in Hartford and notification sent to Bridgeport. Then and then only is certificate of er- TOT issued. Soldiers exemptions are the cause of issuing many certificates of error. Many times soldiers file their property and are ignorant of the fact that they are entitled to exemp- ton. When this fact is disclosed to the certificates Of error are granted. The stubs of the certificates that have been issued thus far are on file in the assessors office and are open to Investigation
 During the Republican regime it is charged that these certificates were closely guarded secrets
