Tries To Halt Land
Auction

Allen County Auditor Floyd Grif-
fms campaign to erase tax delin-
quents from the county's books struck
possible snag last week when a
Common Pleas Court order was
sought to restrain him from selling
Ia lots at public auction.
Griffin has been offering lots for
sale three times weekly for the last
three weeks at public sale, the only
requirement being that they sell for
enough to cover back taxes and cost
of forfeiture.
Action was brought by George
Bowers, trustee for the defunct West
End Realty Co., holder of the IA
lots in Oakland Parkway addition.
He contends sewer and paving i'm
provements were made in 1925 with
out consent of 81 per cent of the
property owners, and that the special
assessments should be annulled.

S1.00 Fine Carried To

Carrying his case before the Third

Claim, Lima attorney, last week ar
gued on his own behalf in explana-

a fine of 81 and costs assessed
against him last June 26 in Lima
municipal court for failing to obey
a red traffic light.
McClain told the three judges
highest tribunal in a 16-county dis
trict-that Municipal Judge M. B.
Jenkins had found him guilty of the
charge "on the sole testimony of two
police officers and despite the fact
that insufficient evidence had beer
offered to prove the defendant guilty
beyond a reasonable doubt"
The Lima attorney declared that
the policemen-Traffic Inspector Dor
Miller and Patrolman Walter Wolf
had erred in testifying that McClain
had made a right turn from Main
street into Elm street "in violation
of a red light and at an excessive

900 Properties Offered
In Auction

Response of the public to the auc-
tions of property on the Allen county
tax forfeiture list has been crafty
ing", County Auditor Floyd B. Grif-
fin declared.
Since the auctions were started
three weeks ago, 900 properties have
been offered and 210 found buyers.
In addition, owners of 93 parcels on
the list paid up the back taxes to
prevent the properties from being
sold.
"This means that 25 per cent OF
the properties offered so far have
found buyers" Griffin said. "This
is remarkable, in view of the fact
that the sections from which large
portion of these first offerings were
selected are not considered as highly
desirable by real estate experts"
