Rome Asked TO
Be Open Town

WASHINGTON, July 81 CUP,-
Government officials listened SILENT
ly today while Catholic pressure in
this country increased for having
Rome declared an open city and
thus spared future bombardments.
Should Mussolini submit to thai
pressure, which is expected to
spread among Catholics the world
over, Allied officials would consider
it major military and diplomatic
victory against the Axis.
Most sources here recognize that
the Allies did not want to bomb
Rome - or any other city where
civilians lives would be in jeopardy
But modern war brings important
military objectives into the imme-
diate vicinity of civilian dwellings
In the case of Rome it has been no
secret for some time that it is
Ttaly's transportation hub. and that
Hitler and MusSolini have been
taking advantage of the Allies de-
sire to avoid bombing it.

New Delinquent
ak Law Told

Taxing agencies in Imperial coun-
ty conferred this week with Bert
Foster, deputy state controller, and
George Proctor, tax redemption ex-
pert of the controllers office, con-
cerning the new tax law under
which local taxing agencies instead
of the state will collect rents from
tax delinquent property.
The new law will go into effect
in California Aug. d, 1943.
When property is decided to the
state of California at the end of five
years after first going delinquent,
the law in the past permitted the
state controller to take over the
property, lease it,, and collect all
the rent even though the state had
no interest in the taxes. Under
that law the controller made a
blanket lease to the Imperial Irri-
CATION district which covered all
lands in district boundaries which
had been decided to the state. The
district paid flat rate of $500
year for this blanket lease. The
district then rented the property
to private parties. The controller
established an office in Ell Centro
and maintained an office staff there
for years.
COUNTY DISSATISFIED
The county. all cities within it's
borders, and the irrigation district
have been dissatisfied with the ar
rangement as they contended the
rental money rightfully belonged to
the cities, county, and district For
years efforts were made to get
these rentals paid to local taxing

uScIlCleS.
When judge Elmer Heald was
district attorney of Imperial coun-
ty he had the backing of the Cali
fornia District Attorneys associa-
ton and the California Board of
Supervisors association in propos-
ing bill whereby the irrigation
district. the county, or any city
may elect to be the sole leasing or
sales agency for tax decided prop
erty. This cannot be done, how
ever, unless a resolution of the dis
trict, county, or city is passed to
show that the state no longer has
any right to the rentals and the
local agencies will collect them. A
certified copy of this resolution
must be filed with the state con-
trCller.
"Under this new law" District
Attorney Charles G. Halliday said
Tuesday. thousands of dollars of
rentals will come to the local tax
ing agencies"
If the irrigation district rents the
property, it pays the county and
the city their pro rate of the rent
ais according to their percentage
of tax delinquencies. If the local
taxing agencies do not want to
handle the property, the controller
still leases it but must return all
rentals to the local taxing agencies
involved, Halliday said.
1t is anticipated that the local
taxing agencies will decide to
handle all the tax delinquent prop
erty in Imperial county, Halliday
said.
