Corn receipts were 137 cars. :

Petitions May Be Obtained At Township Offices.

Receipts

Marion County taxpayers seeking changes in property assessments must file their petitions for review with their township assessor between Jan. 1 and Feb. 20. Under a new law, the petition period has been advanced one month. Center Assessor James Cunningham reminded dissatisfied taxpayers to obtain the petitions from their township assessors’ offices in the Court House. A deputy assessor will be assigned to reassess the property in question. Mr. Cunningham said any changes ‘in valuation” will not affect 1937 taxes payable in 1938. Any reduction in valuation will affect only the 1938 tax books payable in 1939, he said. ; Changes in assessed valuations are made frequently, Mr. Cunningham pointed out. Such changes are the result of lack of any regular countywide reassessment.

RESIGNATIONS OF 2 FIREMEN APPROVED
