Sewer Tax
Is Voted By
City Board
Done To Comply With
Federal Loan a n d
Grant But Is To Be
Withdrawn Later


An ordinance levying a sewage tax
of fifty cents per month on all outlets
in the city was passed by the Hender-
son CITY Council at called meeting
Monday night to provide revenue for
retirement of loan from the Feoerai
government to match grant for con-
struction of a sewage disposal system
tor the Aty costing nearly $lOO,OOO.
It was explained by members of the
Council and by Mayor Henry L. Powell
however, that the ordinance was pass
ed on the suggestion of Atlantic divi-
sional offices of the PWA to comply
with the manner in which the city'S
application for funds was approved in
Washington. The ordinance is ex-
pected to be repealed later, so that the
bonds to be issued will be general reve
nue bonds and retired with funds rails
ed by a general tax levy instead OF a
sewerage tax.
City authorities believe that, in tho
present condition of the bond market
the city can sell its securities at low
CIR rate of interest than the four per-
cent that would have to be paid to the
PWA The bonds will amount to 30
percent of the total outlay for the
project and the grant will be 45 per-
cent. 500 ta sIs Nj Al
The ordinance adopted stipulated
thatTit was in force and effect on and
after its adoption, which, if it is al
lowed to stand that way, will mean
the fifty cents per month tax will be
assessed at once. It is planned, how
ever, to repeal this part of the provi-
sions The tax on sewage service
outside the city limits will be $3.50
per month. 1t is provided that the tax
will be billed and collected by the
water department along with charges
for water service, and that water con-
Ecctions may be cut off for non-pay-
ment of the tax, which will be due
and payable on the first OF the
month.
A special meeting of the Council
was called to adopt the ordinance and
to comply with other provisions Of
the PWA approval of the financing
Undertaking. A telephone converse
ton with PWA district officials in
Atlanta advised the procedure after
papers were sent for final approval by
the Council.
Meantime, work is going ahead on
plans, and the letting is to be plan
ned for early December. Unless work
Is actually under way by December
% the PWA financing program be-
comes null and void.
Voters of the city approved the $685.

the work at an election September %,
when the result was approximately
155 to IS in one of the smallest bal
lettings the city has had in any re-
cent year. Some citizens voted in
favor of the measure with the under
standing that there would be no spe-
cial sewerage tax. The election was
for general tax" bonds and not

Some As to so men were thrown out
of work temporarily by the fire, which
did an estimated damage of $751; 600
to 100000, mostly covered by insur-
ance. The company,s sprinkler system
and the work of city firemen con-
fined the flames to the one building
where the blaze originated, the cause
of which was not definitely an

Much of the damage sustained was
to trucks that were Under construc-
ton, including several huge trailers
for the army air corps. Numerous
other trailers and cabs were in pro-
cess in the burned structure.
In the matter of replacement, it is
believed the building itself can be
replaced in a few months. Expensive
tools and machinery lost in the fire
will have to be bought anew and in
stalled so as to provide the means of
work for the men employed in the
department.
Other departments were not delay
