Tired after their journey some had come from Oklahoma and Nebraska and Arkansas and shy and bewildered by all the noise and hurry of the city, they were met by army officers and escorted to hotels. They are old, most of these mothers.

There are between 30,000 and pieces of property in Palm Beach County upon which a one-mill Okeechobee Flood Control tax is levied, and if the tax were paid in full, a total of approximately $22,500 would be paid into the county coffers, he said.

A total of $43,500 would be spent if 30,000 pieces of property were advertised at delinquent tax sale, sold and redeemed. The advertising cost is 30 cents per line, redemption fee $1.00, and cost of issuing certificate, 15 cents.
