$136, 500 Paid City
 For Old Age Taxes

A total Of $l36,5OO in old-age as- sistance taxes was paid this year according to figures made known by the office of tax collector Hum- bert Mangini. The figure exceeds by approximately 4U.0O0 the amount to be. paid by the city to the state as its share of the states assessment The board of finance yesterday ap- proved payment to the state of $13O,637 as the city's share to be paid on or before April 1.
 The city had set aside, within the l945 budget, the amount of $130, 637 in the budget of the controller gen. eral financial to meet the state payment. The sum of $l45,000 in revenue from this source had been anticipated.
 As reported here previously and reiterated by Arnold Furlong city budget director at yesterdays fi- nance meeting the city is conducting an intensified campaign to collect delinquent taxes on old-age assess ments and others. Procedure used is to notify the delinquent taxpayer by mail of the citys intent to col lect which if ignored is then to be followed by issuance of warrant.
 Action of this nature has already been undertaken and has met with opposition by Atty. John F. Tobin, attorney for one of the defendants upon whom has been served a war rant. Atty. T'obin Is now preparing a motion asking the city for more specific charges.
