Flynt, Tax Supervisor May 6, 1936 Mr. Troy V. McKinney, Tax Supervisor, Shelby, North Carolina. Dear Mr. McKinney: I have your letter of May sth in reference to tax listings of Dr. Ralph Mc- Donald in Forsyth County. Dr. McDonald is presumed to have become a resident of Forsyth County in. 1928, although too late to list taxes for that He did not list any taxes un til the fall of 1931 when he listed for 1931 poll and personal property tax in the sum of $4.00. On March 15th, 1933, this office discovered that he had not listed for the years 1929, 1930, and 1932, and he was, accordingly, placed upon our tax books for poll tax or $2.00 per year. In 1933 and 1934 Dr. McDonald listed his taxes regularly. In 1935, he again failed to make a return and he was placed upon our tax books by simply copying the 1934 return with a small allowance for de preciation. Taxes paid for 1933 were $3.38; for 1934 were $6.90 and 1935 were $6.35. Briefly, Dr. McDonald has made voluntary tax return to Forsyth County only three times since becoming a resident in 1928. He listed late in 1931 for 1931 taxes and he made voluntary returns at the proper time for 1933 and 1934 taxes. He was “picked up” or arbitarily assessed by this office for the years 1929, 1930, 1932 and 1935. This letter must not be construed as a personal attack on Dr. McDonald for his failure to peiform one of the duties of citizenship. I have no desire to enter into a controversy or deal in personalities in connection with the gubernatorial campaign now in progress. I have simply answered your questions just as I have recently answered Dr. McDonald’s similar inquiry about another citizep of this county. Very truly yours, (signed) Vernon W. Flynt, Tax Supervisor.
