admits liability for.
SHIELDS ACTS on
KENNEDY RULING
Shields is acting on ruling by
Corporation Counsel r. j. l. Ken
nedy that the city Is not legally
responsible for any portion of the
taxes and that Shields must collect
the tax from the company. The
company contents Shields has not
the legal right to collect the tax
from II.
Leonard proposed that the COM
pany Immediately pay fourth
the amount of the tax either to
the county treasurer or to the
city. where. the offer suggested. it
could be held pending the city's
decision to pay the balance OF the
sum.
Shields declared the company's
agreement with the city has no
bearing on his duty. which the
United States supreme court has
held is to collect the full amount
OF the tax from the power COM
pany.

Shields informed Leonard. Sheriff
Matt Starwich will serve distraint
papers upon the company and seize

Shields said that Deputy Prosecu.
tor Howard Hanson is preparing
distraint papers covering sufficient
property OF the power company to
pay the tax If sold at auction.
The tax bill has betn approved by

which has held that the county

for the money. and the company
must be reimbursed by the city.
