D. c. Breakdown
Set on Fees Paid
With Bad Checks

The District government is
preparing to crack down on the
1000 persons a year who try to
pay their taxes or license fees
with bad checks.
The Commissioners asked the
city's legal office today to pre-
pare legislation to penalize
anyone who gives the District
a bad check.
John West, city treasurer,
said the bad-check problem is
increasing and that handling
such checks costs the city "a
lot of time and expense.
He suggested that if a bad
check is for less than $50 the
signer should be charged a IS
penalty and if the check is for
a larger amount. the penalty
should be increased.
He said that apparently some
persons write bad checks de-
liberately to get new license
plates on time, for example,
even though they know they
do not have sufficient funds in
the bank.
