NEW TAG LAW

The new law which provides that
the superintendent Of licenses may

counsel to solve and which may
prove a stumbling block to the license
bureau.
In past years tags have been is
sued In December. and by the 1st

the license bureau has been out Of

The new law provides that by
January / all personal taxes must
have been paid. Collections
formerly started with the beginning
of the fiscal year on July l.
Assessor william p. Richards Is
at work on one plan which will prob
ably be adopted. He plans to bill
personal taxes on January for a
six months period, and then follow
out the usual custom of having ad-
ditional bills for one year issued on
July /.
In the event that the office of the
corporation counsel holds that tax
bills may not be issued before Janu.
ary /, the majority OF license tags
for automobiles will be held up for
a month.
In December, under the law, new
tags can be issued. The tax bills
have been sent out, but the question
arises as to whether or not payment
can be demanded before the first Of
the year.

 The Alaska Railroad amazed him in this respect, that it ap- pears to be in such an excellent condition for it's young term of existence.

Justice Samuel D. Levy of the

Subnormality quickly is turned

by the other children with being a

His majestey, the kaiser, did

because his people had deserted
him.
For him to die hero's death
was impossible, because the armis-

had remained the result would have
been civil war and the resum ption
