BESSEMER SEEKS
 TO GUT EXPENSES TAX COLLECTIONS
Bill Will Be Introduced At July Session Of State
 Legislature
BESSEMER BUREAU 1 THE AGE HERAI.D ! RaSSerne Ala .1ulu R

The city of Bessemer will present a bill at the adjourned special ses- sion of the legislature asking that collection of city taxes be combined with county collections here. allow ing the county tax collectors office to make one collection for both funds. Officials feel certain that it will be passed.
 Collection of both taxes at the same time will be a great conven- fence to taxpayers here and will re- suit in a considerable savings to the city. The county's collectors office will be allowed a small fee for the service, which will eliminate the keeping of a double set of books.
 The tax books are now being made up and the tax levy for next year will carry an additional 3-mill school tax which was authorized at an election May 29. This fund will te used for school purposes and to retire a recent s150.000 bond issue.
 The county tax adtustor have just finished their work at Bessemer, this being the last opportunity local rroperty holders will have tC pro- test raises in tax valuations before the new books are made.
