BEGIN DELINQUENT
TAX COLLECTION
Law Aids County Treasurer
to Start Work.

Collection Of delinquent taxes
from about $4,000 persons in Marion
County begun today by County
Treasurer Edward Ramsay The
taxes became delinquent last No
vernber.
The office had refused to collect
taxes because the prosecutors office
declared the fees for delinquents
were being improperly collected by
the treasurer and deputies. The Leg.
islature passed a bill whereby thirty
days notice is given delinquent tax
payers. The law allows certain
fees for the demand for overdue
taxes and percentage for levying on
property Of the taxpayers.
THAT law makes it possible for
this office to know exactly what to
do" Ramsay stated. "All delin-
quent taxes will be collected under
this schedule. The thirty-day notice
before 1evying will aid the taxpayer
in preparing himself and probably
bring more money into the county
without making the levies.
1.-The man with large amounts of
property pays his taxes promptly.
It's the fellow with the least money
who avoids the tax payment. And
he can't afford to lose his property. "
