PAYMENT OF NEW LEVY EQUALS LAST YEAR'S MARK Approximately 925,000 in delinquent county taxes has been paid since July 1. it was revealed Tuesday by the records in the office of County Auditor Fred Porter.

An indication of reiurriintv normal times is seen by county officials in the steauilv growing lis: of redeivi' tions.

Supervisors of various disi rii 's re port that many of the men now cm 1 ployed on CWA projects in the county are planning to use a large portion of their earnings to pay up ddelin fluent taxes, and all are making an effort to do so before April 20, in order to escape payment of penal ties.
