May Lose By It<br />
Mishandling ef city financial busi<br />
>£§ in connection with<br />
<strong>of</strong> tax title liens, with the<br />
ity <strong>of</strong> considerable less to the city<br />
in delinquent taxes and interest, wus<br />
alleged by <strong>City</strong> Suiicilor Juiin E,<br />
Bosweli in a written report tiled<br />
with the city commissioners Friday,<br />
He charged that Commissioner<br />
<strong>Aug</strong>ustus S, Goetz was responaiblt:<br />
for *'a very dlaturblng situaiiun" because<br />
ui having introduced a resolution<br />
which caused records <strong>of</strong> tax Jelinquehcy<br />
to be removed frsni tlie<br />
city records before properties were<br />
actually foreclosed,<br />
TO EEIN STATE BECOKUS<br />
As a result <strong>of</strong> this report( the<br />
board ydopted a resylution prepared<br />
by Mr, Bosweli which would reinstate<br />
on the tax collector's records<br />
the amounts that were lost by '.he<br />
previous action. The solicitor said<br />
he wss net positive whether this<br />
ectfeh, together with repeal <strong>of</strong> the<br />
previous resolutioui "will cure the<br />
defect crested".<br />
Tax lien foreolOiures referred tOi<br />
the Solicitor said, were several<br />
which were being handled by Franklin<br />
A, King as attorney, but in which<br />
suit had not yet been started, Mr,<br />
Bosweli said the difficulty "is not<br />
the result <strong>of</strong> any fault <strong>of</strong> Mr, Klngj<br />
but arises as the result <strong>of</strong> the ^as*<br />
sage <strong>of</strong> a resolution it the direction<br />
