Jr. making his final report of the fiscal year this week reported that he has 89.41 percent of the year’s taxes in^haiu-. Collections ’ through June 30 Amounted to $633,018.58. This was $74,993.27 short of the $707,955 85 he was exjjected to collect to oper ate the county. However, it is gen erally recognized by governmental agencies that ten percent of ail taxes are uncollectable. Ray noted that collections were a little short-of the 90 per cent be would jiave liked to have shown, but at the same time he was 1.75 Ing are three sons, Oscar Walker of Lillington, Bernard Walker of Dunn and Willie L. Walker of An gier, Route 2; five daughteis, Mrs. J. G. Vaughan of Nelson, Va., Mrs. Woodrow Matthews of An gier, Route 2, Mrs. Otha Hum phries of Angier, Route 1, Mrs. Charles Trainer of California and Mrs. Woody Boyd of Nelson, Va.: 22, grandchildren and seven great grandchildren percent ahead of his record at the same month a year ago. Since Feb ruary collections each mapth on a percentage basis exceeded those of the same time a year ago. June tax payments showed a new low of the year of $4,743.45. Os this amount $2,984.75 were current taxes, and $1,758.70 delinquent. Not withstanding, June is still the bus iest month of the year for the col lector’s office staff. Preparations for the new fiscal year and a new ‘set Qf tax books left no time to send that second-or third notice to jogg the metn° r y °t the forgetful tax payer. \ Ray said he believed that was tile l reason current tax payments for June wbre so small... j Once the taix rate becomes of ficial, the tax supervisor will com pute the amount of taxes due and turn the books over to Ray. Not ices of new taxes will be issued probably in August. I — h Heat Same In Hell, Paradise OSLO (IF Hell and Paradise had practically the same temper ature today.
