School Wage Tax Prosecutions To Start Prosecution of individuals who have failed to comply with the school district wage tax resolution will start July 23, Alderman Byron C. Coleman announced today.

Under the tax resolution, violators are subject to fines not exceeding $100 or a jail sentence not exceeding 30 days for each offense.

Coleman said that Income Ta Commissioner has turned over to him all delinquencies for 1950, 1951, 1952, 1953 and 54, with the bulk of them covering only the last three years. The majority of the informations are for failure to file a return or for failure to pay. "The tax commissioner and 1 both have sent out letters, and have exhausted all other efforts to collect." Coleman said. "Prosecution is the only course left, and a constable will begin serving warrantspossibly in groups of 10 a flay within ten days." Prosecution, he pointed out, is also likely to bring publicity, "because the docket is open for inspection upon prosecution." ANNIVERSARIES July 14, 1955 Mr. and Mrs.
