Again their demand was refused, and
they were told to send the homeless
workers to the Tamany center. When
the committee reported the result Of
their conversation with the Tampany
officials, the workers were indignant
and refused to leave the Workers
Center.
Tammany Members First
The Center at 27O9 Mermaid Ave-
nue. was crowded with the homeless
workers, many of whom had come
there from the fake relief agencies
maintained by the Tammany politi-
clans. where they had been treated
brutally. One woman, M. kaufman,
who had nothing to wear but her
bathing suit, asked for a dress and
was told, First our members get
clothes; if there will be any left, you
will get some"
The Women's Council has organized
three kitchens, where food is being
prepared for the destitute, and served
them at the Workers Center. At the
same time groups of workers are COL

ably reduced when all credits to
the special funds on redemptions
prior to 1928-29 have been applied.
Special assessments levied prior
to 1929, it is pointed out, were
levied under the Improvement Act
of 1911, under which the city as
sumed no responsibility for collec-
tionS, and have expired and been
paid in full, except one, and except,
probably, some delinquencies, the
amount of which would not be
greater than delinquencies shown
for special assessments later COL
lected by the city.
The report goes on to say:
In the last three years, when
records have been kept and re-
demptions tabulated, the average
per centage OF net delinquencies
in special assessments is 7.97, al
most exactly the amount of average
delinquency for general taxes. This
shows some increase over previous

Scouts Provide
Rotary Program

Members of Boy Scout Troop No.
3, sponsored by the Ell Centro Ro-
tary club, provided the program at
yesterdays meeting.
Demonstrations in signaling, fire
building by friction, first aid and
knot tying we're put on by the
Scouts much to the enjoyment OF
the Rotarians, the majority OF
whom admitted they can tie shoe
laces but nothing much else, can't
make a fire without a torch, hard
ly know how to signal when driv-
ing their cars and couldn't even
bandage a finger correctly.
The youngsters went about their
various demonstrations with an air
of confidence and readily answered
the questions fired at them by in
terested Rotarians.
An inspiring talk urging cooper
alton of the Rotarians for the Boy
Scout movement was made by o. G..
Horne and endorsed by r. P.

Characterizing the condition of
the city of Ell Centro, in regard to
special assessments, as excellent,
Phil w. knights, city engineer, de-
voted lengthy section of his semi
annual report to this matter, of
especial interest to tax payers at
this time in view of the coming
election to determine if bonds shall
be issued for a new outfall sewer.
The best method of presenting
this section of the report is by quo
tation. a part of the discussion
follows:
1.-The first of the special assess
ments, under the Bord Act of 1915,
which are collected with general
taxes, was placed upon the assess
ment rolls in 1921-22 The total
accumulated transfers to cover
delinquencies in the special as
sessment bond funds from that
date to the end of the past fiscal
year amounts to $26,86805. The
total amount of special assessments
collectable during the same period
amounted to $408,324.19. TIL e
amount of $26868.05, however, ac-
tually represents an undetermined
amount considerably in excess of
transfers necessary to cover the ac-
tual delinquency, as prior to 1928
90 redeemed delinquent taxes were
not credited to their respective
bond funds, but placed in general
unapportioned delinquent taxes.
These credits must be segregated
before the exact delinquency fol
the entire period can be determined
However, it is apparent that if
we ignore the credits and assume
SIG, ,868O5 to be the amount of de-
linquency in the special assessment
bond funds, the percentage of ac-
tual delinsuency will be found to
be 6.57. The average delinquency
for general taxes is about eight per
cent, or in other words the delin-
quency of special assessments is
considerably lower than upon the
general tax roll, for which 10 per
cent is customarily allowed when
fixing the general tax rate. This
is probably due to the better and
more stabilized values where i'm
provements have been made.
AS matter of fact there has

without question this shows an
excellent and very healthy condi-

remarked that this city's credit

Honey Groves Popular

THE buzzing bee busy last year, and this
| one phase of agriculture prospered despite
the low prices for agriculture in general. Eve1
the loss of o foreign market failed to cut to
deeply into the business and although the ex-
portation Of honey reduced by 5000 600
pounds still more than $40 00e 900 worth OF
honey was sold in this country. An additional
81 Oee 000 was derived from the sale of beeswax,
while the value TO fruit crops of the pelnation
work carried by bees was, always. Of TIE
mendoas value.
There seems to be q growing interest in
honey, the Department of Agriculture believes,
and the greater use as honey itself is largely
due to the more attractive package which is be-
ing put out by the producers. Candy and bread
makers are also finding honey an ideal sweet
and one which improves their product. The
greater part Of the honey now consumed is sold
direct from the beekeeper TO the householder
and for this reason the gathering of statistics
has been diffieult ON a national basis but never
theless enough facts were obtained to indicate
that honey Is an up-and-coming commodity
with infinite possibilities because the market is
far from exploited at the present time.
