Drager, taxes coll:ted from the 1932 roll total $749,434.63 or 51.2 per cent of the tax roll of $1,441,407.96. Thi3 leaves a de linquency of 691,973.33.

One of the alarming conditions. in the opinion of the county offi cials, Is that for the last several years the tax rolls for Marion county hare shown a decrease while the tax delinquency has shown a marked Increase. "The tax delinquency for this year, -comes at a time when the budget committee did not allow a cushion to absorb this deficit In tax payments," County Treasurer Drager said. Expenses of the various depart ments of the county government were sliced as closely as possible and the true figure ri'bmltted to the budget committee. If each of the various departments had in creased their estimated expendi tures, the Increase in tax delin quency would not cause as much concern." .

' "While disappointment will reign at Hubbard today with the, an nouncement that the 9715 gym nasium project applied for wax held b'y the state CWA board to be outside its scope because the pro ject consists of new construction, some hope was given by county officials who said possibility still existed of financing the work through other federal sources.
