Naugatuck, Jan. 6--James Bren- nan, old age assistance tax collec- tor, is preparing to send out the latter part of the month bills to about 1900 local residents for old age assistance taxes which are due the first of February. MT. Brennan announced today that the canvass of those between the ages of 2l and 60 inclusive showed about the same number here as last year required to pay the 8 tax.
 The four persons who checked up on residents required to pay were Thomas 8. John, Thomas Mar tin, Burgess George Fellows and Frank Giggin. They have com- pleted their tasks, MT. Brennan reports.
 Tine town has to contribute ap- proximately $18,000 of this toward the state and the rest of the money raised toward the payment of the collector, of the canvassers and also for incidental expenses in connec- ton with the tax. This money was included in the borough budget for the fiscal year 1936-1937 when the appropriation was decided upon, al- though the money is yet to be raised.
 Residents required to pay have 30 days, that is until March 2 to pay the tax. If they have not done so by that time, the tax will be A and 8 short time thereafter sheriff's warrant may be used on the delin- quents. q
 Last year was the first time this tax was collected here. It takes the place of the annual g personal tax collected in other years. Naugatuck residents who are entitled to old age compensation derive some bene- fit from the money paid in here.
 However, some criticism of the present law has been made, in that many feel the requirements to get old age assistance are too strict. Whether or not an attempt to mod fly the regulations will be made at tho session of the satte legislature this year is not known.
