With tax payments so far this year showing a slight increase over this time last year, County Treasâ€" urer Allen J. Nelson recently exâ€" pressed the hope that taxing bodies this year would receive a greater share of their tax levies than in any year since the beginning of the deâ€" pression in 1930. $ is The second installment on real estate taxes is due now and beâ€" comes delinquent on Sept. 1. With only two weeks before the delinâ€" quency starts, Treasurer Nelson is urging taxpayers to make their payâ€" ments now so as to avoid the penâ€" alty that will be added to their bills Inct The slight increase in payments so far, according to the records in the treasurer‘ office, has been due mainly to the payments of full tax bills by taxpayers who wanted to avoid the installiment system. There was also a greater number of perâ€" sonal property tax bills paid this summer. Tax extensions made on the 1986 M'flmim in the county, real and personal propâ€" erty, totalled $4,510,179.75, ‘These assessments, except the personal installments, Personal property asâ€" sessments were due in one lump Real estate tax bill installments became due on May 1 and Aug. 1. The first installment became delinâ€" quent on July 1; the second must Inmpdd by Sept. 1 to avoid the penâ€" alty. In the collection of back personal property Taxes, the tax collection department his brought numerous proceedings in justice courts. In Waukegan township several hundred suits are in process now and are being started from time to time. To escape these litigations, delinquent personal property owners have alâ€" ready paid approximately $25,000. proporty Of the $4,984,736.77 in current taxes extended last year on 1985 my valuations, the total colâ€" ttion was 82 per cent. Foreclosure proceedings are in process against real estate owners who have neglected to pay their back taxes, In some instances, where real estate owners who have been delinguent for several years arâ€" ranged for payment of their entire tax bills, compromises were made in the amount of penalties paid. The Lake county board of supervisors, however, has no power to waive penalties afd costs on tax delinâ€" quencies, as has been suggested by some real estate owners. Judgments are being taken by the county against the delinquent perâ€" sonal property owners who fail to pay up. If the judgments are not paid within a reasonable time, the cqunty may seize property of the delinquents and dispose of the propâ€" erty to satisfy the amount of the judgment, which includes the tax delinquency and court costs. Superâ€"Highways Should Have Lines for Traffie Lanes While most of the property ownâ€" ers are keeping up their payments, the county is resorting to the courts to fl:;lloet from the delinquent minâ€" ority. â€" Assistant State‘s Attorney Okel S. Fugqua, in charge of the â€"tax collecâ€" tion department established by the supervisors, stated that under exâ€" isting state revenue laws the superâ€" visors have no authority to make any regulations with reference to the payment of taxes. « "Keep to the right, except when passing other cars" is a highway traffic law in Illinois. Most other states have a similar law &fi@sit is an excellent rule, say Qfl‘i- nois Automobile club. / Of 2â€"lane streets and highways, with one lahe of traffic going each way, this is not difficult But on. superâ€"highâ€" ways and city boulevards, where thereâ€" are two or more lanes of traffic going in the same direction, few motorists obey this law. ‘ WILSON‘S Secret Process "Painting lines on the pavement, creating lanes within which vehiâ€" cles must be driven, is not only within the legal power of traffic auâ€" FJenuear Waze ECONOMICAL @ Ham today is the best meat buy on the market.

On Tuesday evening another speâ€" cial meeting was held for the purâ€" pose of discussing with McGuire and Orr, the examining of local assessâ€" ‘ment records. "Requiring motor vehicles to be kept within marked lanes greatly increases the capacity of the roadâ€" way, the speed of vehicles, the pleasure and comfort and safety of the people, and materially decreases the hazard of collision. "Along the roadways there freâ€" quently appears a sign reading: ‘Slow vehicles use the rightâ€"hand lane‘. ‘This means that slowâ€"movâ€" ing vehicles shall keep close to the curb, leaving the centerâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"road lune for fastâ€"moving vehicles. But most motorists ignore this sign, for no effort is made to enforce this rule. ‘The result, especially on city boulevards, is that slowâ€"moving veâ€" hiclés usurp the lane set apart for faster traffic. ‘Rules of the Road‘ have been adopted, after long exâ€" perience, for the safety and convenâ€" jence of the public: they were meant to be observed." "Continuous painted lines on city boulevard pavements, properly marked for the information and guidance of motorists, are entirely within reason. On highways, in the rural districts, such lines should be laid down at all important inâ€" tersections and at other strategic points. _ Enforcement of drivh: rules by the police would soon teac motorists to keep within these marked lanes. On .Friday evening a special meeting was held to pass a resoluâ€" tion authorizing the paying of the money for the Central avenue ditch, which is now completed. Culverts and appromches to the property adâ€" jacent to the ditch will be put in by the state. Ralph Petersen, trustee, resigned as chairman of the license commitâ€" tee, also as chairman of the police and fire department committee. Mayor Christian M. Willman apâ€" pointed William Hertel as chairman of the police and fire, and Marshall Pottenger, as chairman of the license committee. Deerfield Licenses Games of Chance The board of trustees of the vilâ€" lage of Deerfield has decided to obâ€" tain some revenue from the pin ball games and other devices of similar nature which are being operated in the various local places of business. An ordinance was passed licensing these games at the August meeting of the village board and was pubâ€" lished in & recent issue of The Press, at which all members of the board and the corporation counsel and village clerk were present. The tax levy for a period of one year, from May 1, 1937 to April 30, 1938, was also approved. The plea of an outâ€"ofâ€"town man to start a junk yard in the old Knaak Garage on Deerfield road was turned down. It would be necâ€" essary to cbtain the consent of nearâ€" by property owners for such a propâ€" osition. + BUTTER . . » ARMOUR‘5 CLOVERBLOOM Fancy Young Spring LA MB ROAST PORK LOIN ROAST YEAL CUTLETS Specials for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Aug.26â€"27â€" Loin VEAL ROAST SMOKED HAM Sliced to Fry: . _ Efficient Intelligent ' Service MON A RCH FINER FOODS Th Th Meats .

Campbell, state NYA director, anâ€" nounced today. High school students receiving this aid are given a maximum of $6 per month for work performed after school hours.

Needy boys or girls seeking this asâ€" sistance should apply directly to the school heads, he said. . "Last year‘s student aid fund was more than $600,000," said Mr. Campbell. "This larger sum was required to provide assistance in the flood and drought stricken areas. Some 18,000 high sehool boys and girls were given employment last year to assist them to continue in school and while approximately that number will be aided during the coming term, the ‘amount of indiâ€" vidual assistance may be reduced." _ Various types of work are proâ€" vided for high school students to enable them to continue their eduâ€" 1.10 SWEET CORN ..
