that there was general jubilation

Heavy snowfalls during the

up, resulting in slowing up the
Russians on the ground.
The Red Star, semi official
newspaper, commented today on
the heavy fall of snow. It said
that while it was keeping Rus
sian planes on the ground, it
meant more severe weather to
come for the Germans. The snow
would harden, the Red Star said,
and the planes would take to the
air again, but the hardening of
the snow meant a falling tenn
perature that would make the
suffering from cold more acute
among the Germans.

BIG CONCERNS In

DELINQUENT TAXES
COMPTROLLER URGES CoUN-

MAKING COLLECTIONS OF
MUCH-NEEDED REVENUE

Suggestions from State Comp
troller J. M. Lee that counties
lose no time collecting delin-
quent taxes have been accom-
panied by plenty of activity at
headquarters-the latest evidence
being the announcement that the
Florida East Coast Railway will
pay $123,851 this weekend,
bringing the comptroller's delin-
quent tax collections for the past
80 days to more than a million
and a half dollars.
The East Coasts payment fol-
lows the Seaboard's payment of
$851,5 two weeks ago after
ten years of litigation over the
method of assessment and Halleg-
edly illegal levies. ,,.,,t.-s-
Then while the Seaboard'S pay
ment was being audited the
doughty comptroller stepped out
and put the final squeeze on the
estate of James H. Nunnally, At

another S593,OO3.24 as the final
payment on estate taxes which
the estates lawyers have been
contesting for more than three
years. Another $325,000 had pre-
viouSly been paid.
While all of the Nunnally cash
went to the state-only about

lected from the railroads goes
