" System of Pro-rating Costs on Tax-Sales Slated A suggested method of pro-rating costs of foreclosing on and handling tax-sale properties is to be outlined at a meeting repre senting the state auditing division, the county and the city and school district of Salem, to be held with the county court this mniuuuii, it was ueciaea monaay at a preliminary meeting Made purely as sueeestions as to the system to be followed, the outlined procedure is then to be presented Monday, December 8, at a special meetine of rerjresen- tatives of all taxing units in the county. A $50,000 fund accumulated from tax sales over a period of several years is the immedi ate cause for the discussion, but the system adopted prob ably will serve when division of similar funds becomes a question In years to come. It was declared Monday. The county is entitled to tak from the fund at once the money li nas advanced to the state as the state's share of the taxes rep resented by the properties fore closed upon and sold, state's at torney general has ruled. Before any further division can be made costs must be pro-rated against each individual .parcel of prop erty, a system made more diffi cult by the difference of taxes in varying municipal corporations Final Party of Season Slated WOODBURN at.
