C, TUESDAY, TAX COLLECTIONS MAKE NEW RECORD trict Office During Month of October. The record-breaking sum of $7.872,- 1156.13 was collected by the District tax collector’s office during October, Tax Collector Chatham M. Towers an- nounced today. The previous highest month was October, 1928, when collec~ tions amounted to $7,793,634.44. ‘The collections in October brought the total collected this fiscal year up to $14,661,428.20, Mr. Towers said. He said that the figures thus far indicated a tax collection of $35,000,000 during the fiscal year. Last fiscal year the collections amounted to $33,484,825.35. ‘The division of the October tax total among real and personal estate taxes, license fees, etc., has not yet been made. Much of the money reported as collect- ed in October actually came into the office in September in the form of pay- ments of real estate taxes made by let- ter on the last day of September, there- by avoiding imposition of any penalty for tardy payment. It is a physical im- P & »ility to enter these late rushes of L in the September books, so they |ar. credited to October. {CLOTHING AND JEWELRY, VALUED AT $300, STOLEN Sneak Thief Robs Apartment.
