COUNTY. HEADS
ALARMED BY
TAX SALES

MARLBORO, Nd, Aug. 10.
County officials here are IN o
dilemma because o checkup or the
books reveals that the annual
final tax sale Of land, slated for
September 16, will be the largest
in the history Of the county. Land
having an estimated aSsessable
value of over 100000 will go on
the block, an increase Of 80 per
cent over last year.
r. Ernest Smith, county treas
urer, is considerably perturbed.
AS he dolefully viewed the results
of his adding machine calcular
tions, he remarked plaintively:
"This is q hell Of D note.
We've got to find some way to
make the people pay their
taxes"
BAXTER CITES DANGER
Thomas w. Baxter, supervisor
of assessments, said that the
county already has tax titles to
over half a million dollars worth
of property and this years sale
will bring the total well over the
million dollar mark, amounting
to over per cent Of all land In
the county.
He also pointed out another
danger. Since land taken w at
tax sales is no longer listed as as
SesSable property, the county
stands to lose more through loss
of taxes than it could make up
through increased assessments in
o land boom period.
The land involved in next
months sale was originally taken
over by the county in March, 1888,
At the end of the two-year re-
demption period, the county took
title to the property and is now
at liberty to dispose of it.
The final tax sale last year gave
the county title to approximately
$400, 900 worth Of property. Sew
eral large blocks Of that property
in the vicinity Of Berwyn Heights
and Buena Vista were removed

Officials Criticise
This procedure has left county
officials open to criticism on the
grounds they were putting the
county in the real estate business
in competition with private enter
prise"
Because of the dissatisfaction
with the present system OF dispos
ing Of tax delinquent land, both
Smith and Baxter are casting
about for a more suitable plan
They are working on one now that
follows closely the procedure in
mortgage foreclosures.
The problem of curbing the in
crease in tax delinquencieS has be
come so great that the county
commissioners have int m t ed
that they will seek legislative aic
at the coming special session o1
