' VA'GTZ TURKS 1 I CHANCE TO AVERT New Law Permits Delin quent Owners to Pay Ten Per Cent of Amount Due to 1930 and Gain Time Koum bffl No. 11. paaeed by the Ut legislature, and algned by Oo- ernor Charle K. Martin on Map T 11, brings to delinquent taxpayers of the itate meed of relief. Dis trict Attorney George A. Codding an nounced , today, after considerable study of the law. The law allows taxpayera, , whose land Is now being foreclosed by the county for delinquent taxes, to pay ten per cent of the smount due for 1930 and prior years, and by the payment gain a six months' exten sion of time to bring back payments up to date and save their property, the district attorney announced. The payment must be made before a decree Is entered, In the present county tax foreclosure proceedings, the district attorney further said. Will Delay Decrees. The new law does not take effect until (0 days after signing by the governor. In the present county tax foreclosure suits, a decree could be taken April 6, next, but the law giv ing relief does not become effective until June 12. If the decree should be entered on April 8, the delin quent taxpayer would be unable to take advantage of the remedy of fered by the last legislature. District Attorney Codding an nounced today that although the decree could be taken April 5. his office will not have the decree en tered until some time after the new law taJcee effect, June 12. This w(ll give all taxpayera whose property la Involved In the present county tax foreclosure an opportunity to commence their payment of taxes by Installments. It Is suggested by Codding that all Interested csll st the tax collection department of the sheriff's office, and acquaint themselves with the new situation. Insofar aa It effecta them. Considerable confusion exists among many taxpsyers as to pro visions of the delinquent tax laws. Have Installment Bight. The 1933 legislature, the district attorney states, passed a lew giving to taxpayers owing taxes for the year 1930 and prior years, the right to pay them In ten semi-annual pay. menta. starting July 1. 1B33, and at regular six months Intervals there after. Any taxpayer who made his Installment up to date la In good standing, as far as 1930 and prior year taxes are concerned, me law J further provided that should any property owner fsll to pay three .In stallments when due, his property would be subject to foreclosure. The present Jackson county foreclosure proceedings Involve msny persons who failed to keep up their Install ments. Investigation. Codding states, shows that a very small per cent of the taxpayers understood that 1930 and prior years delinquencies could be paid on the Installment plan. This fact, the district attorney believes, la undoubtedly responsible for the large number Involved In the present county foreclosure proceedings. TO CALL FIVE WITNESSES An order granting Myrtle E.
