(AP) Impecunious Chicago, balked by . a ."taxpayers stride" for , four years, - faced possible bankruptcy today as the result; of a decision voiding the county' tax bills for 1928 and 12. The ruling by County Judge Edmund K. Jarecki, In which he held that assessment rolls tor those years were fraudulent and invalid, meant that J14O.fl00.00O . owed in back taxes could not be collected until a reassessment is completed, or a successful appeal prosecuted. ! It also, meant that the 1930 bills, based on the 1928 assess ment aud now due, would likely -bring' very little into the empty coffers of the city, county and the schools. " j State legislators, meeting in special session to solve the city's financial muddle, had already suggested that Chicago be placed In the bands of a receiver. Mayor Anton Cermak had said If Judge Jarecki rules against us we might; have to close the- eity hall." Judge Jarecki warned that if taxing bodies j continued to make, such "unjust levies." a crisis might be precipitated, "the re sults of which cannot be fore told." r Effort Being Made To Sell Warrants The ruling came while new efforts were being made to sell tax warrants so that teachers could be given a little ot the several months back salary due them. If the decision ia upheld Mayor Cermak said no tax war rants could be sold and bonds ' would depredate. City aad state leaders were attempting to agree on a plan so that the state leg islature, when it reconvenes next week, can reorganize the taxing machinery of the county. Many of the officials expressed ' the opin ion that today's ruling made It imperative that tha legislature fund the three years' taxes, or at least those for 1929.
