cau the t ixes were already too high
ahd it was thought best to lay the j

trlct also remonstrated, advancing
various causes.
The fact that the property owners
have ten. years In which to pay the
assessment does not seem to be fully
understood. The rate of interest is
low. and even if the cost seems high,
the annual expense to be carried is
very small, when compared with the !
cost of building septic tanks. Mayor .
Meyers pointed out that an ununlform ;
system is worse than no system at
all. and that while the ndiuinistra

procedure was fully within the con-1
