A Resolution Requesting the Key
City Gas Company to Make
Extensions.
Whereas, the City Council of the
City of Dubuque has already passed
final resolutions of necessity for pav-
ing some thirty -five streets during
1924, and
Whereas, it is brought to our at-
tention that the Key City Gas Com-
pany has not mains in some of these
streets, notably West Locust street,
Rosedale avenue and Kirkwood
street, and
Whereas, the Key City Gas Com-
pany should have mains in all these
streets together with the necessary
stubs to provide for street exten-
tions or intersecting streets prior to
paving, now
Therefore be it resolved by the
City Council of the City of Dubuque
that the City Clerk be notify said
Key City Gas Company of all those
streets for which final resolutions of
necessity have been passed request
the Key City Gas Company to extend
mains in these streets and to lay
the necessary stubs for connections
on cross streets, during the present
season, in order that the paving work
be not interferred with next year,
and also so that the work will have
a chance to settle prior to doing pav-
ing work.

Whereas, the City of Dubuque has
this year laid water mains in Grand-
view avenue from the Engine House
to the end of South Grandview aven-
ue and
Whereas, the plans are being pre.
pared for putting in sanitary sewers
in this district, now therefore
Be it resolved by the City Council
of the City of Dubuque that the Key
City Gas Company be requested to
arrange if possible to extend gas
mains in this street during 1924 in

of this street by paving be not de-
ferred on account of the lack of gas
mains in the street.

ferred to the City Manager for in-
vestigation and report.
These two lots are improved, be-
ing occupied by a large building.
The assessed value is $7,460.00. Lot
25 was assessed for West Fifth street
improvement $206.09. Lot 26 was
assessed for the West Fifth street
improvement $206.09. For Nevada
street Lot 25 was assessed $33.34 and
Lot 26 was assessed $128.96. For
the improvement of Booth street Lot
25 was assessed $79.98.
In view of the fact that the house
covers a part of both lots, it is fair
to assume that these two lots may
be assessed on the basis of $3,730.00
each. One quarter of that would per-
mit an assessment of $942.00 per lot.
Inasmuch as this assessment has not
been exceeded, I would recommend
that the petition be received and
filed.
Very truly yours,
O. E. CARR,
City Manqger.
Councilman Brede moved that the
recommendation of the City Man-
ager be approved and the petition be
received and filed. Seconded by
Councilman Schrempf. Carried by
the following vote:
Yeas-Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior,
Schrempf.
Nays -None,
October 1st, 1923,
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: At a meeting of the
Council held on September 24th, the
petition of John Gortmaker, asking
for a reduction in the assessment
against Lots 15 and 20, inclusive, in
Nevada Park, was referred to the
City Manager for investigation and
report.
I have investigated and find that
Lots 15 and 16 are low and probably
were not worth over $250.00 prior to
the improvement of the street. The
other four lots, in my judgment,
were worth before the street was
improved, between $700 and $800
each. On the basis of a value of
$700, Lots 17 to 20 inclusive are not
entitled to any reduction in the as.
sessment for the improvement of
Booth street.
My recommendation would be that
the amount of the assessment be
added to a $250.00 value for Lots 15
and 16 and with the assessment at
one - fourth of that amount, the total
would be $106.87 for Lot 16 and
$109.17 for Lot 15, the total reduc-
tion for these two lots would amount
to $148.11.
If this report meets with the ap.
proval of the Council, I would recom-
mend that a warrant be drawn on
the general fund in favor of the spe-
cial improvement fund in the sum of
$148.11 to make up for this cancel-
lation.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the recommendation of the City Man-
ager be approved and the recom-
mendation be carried out, and the
Auditor be instructed to (draw a
warrant for $148.11 on the General
Fund in favor of the special assess-
ment fund to make up the deficiency.
Seconded by Councilman Schrempf.

The bids of
Nesler & Beuchle,
Mullen Bros., and
James F. Lee car-
ry a certain price for
rock.
Nesler
& Beuchle bid cost plus 2Wo, Mullen
Bros. bid $6.00 per yard, and
James
Lee
bid
$4.00
per
yard.
This
makes
some uncertainty regarding which is
the lowest bid as Edmund Linehan's
price per foot includes work wheth-
er rock is encountered or not.
I believe there are only two con-
nections on Summit street, and do
not believe there will be rock in
either Summit street or Cleveland
avenue. For that reason I would
recommend that the contract for the
sewer and water connections be
awarded to Nesler & Beuchle.
I would also recommend, that the
contract for the rest of the streets
included in this list be awarded to
Edmund Linehan as his price is ei-
ther lower in every case or would
be lower if any rock was encoun-
tered.
The Key City Gas Company also
bid 70c per lineal foot for the mak
ing of necessary gas connections in
the above streets. I would recom-
mend that the contract for the gas
connections be awarded to the Key
City Gas Company.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Melchior moved that
the contract for sewer and water
connections in Cleveland avenue and
in Summit street be awarded to Nes-
ler & Buechel, they being the lowest
bidder; and the contract for sewer
and water connections in rest of the
streets bid on be awarded to Edmund
Linehan, he being the lowest bidder.

Petition of Henry A. Geiger, rela-
tive to the assessment against Lots
4, 5 and 6 Finley's Add., of which he
still owns Lot 4, situated on Asbury
street. He states that some years
ago the County Supervisors approp-
riated $1,500.00 for expenditure by
the City of Dubuque for improving
Asbury street and another street,
the street was completed a distance
of about 198 ft. when the appropria-
tion was exhausted. Upon the ex-
haustion of the fund appropriated,
the City ordered the improvement of
the whole street. An assessment
was levied for the improvement and
Lots 4, 5 and 6 'were given credit
for the work that had been done in
that block and the petitioner as-
sessed for $54.76. Shortly thereafter,
ar,d prior to the completion of the
entire street, an unwarranted change
of grade was made in the street, in-
cluding the block in which the street
had been finished, which was after-
wards changed back to the original
grade. A second assessment was
levied against these lots. Your peti-
tioner paid on the first assessment
$32.00 and on the second assessment
IM7.62, with interest amounting to
$14.41. In November your petitioner
and the owners of Lots 5 and 6 in
Finley's Add., petitioned the City
Council for a cancellation of the
second assessment, which was
granted, and the amount of the sec-
ond assessment, $22.76, was applied
on the balance due on the first as-
sessment. This left a balance of
$24.86 and interest $14.41 which pe-
titioner had paid on the second as-
sessment which your body cancelled.
Asbury street has i»st recent1v been
again irlr° ^red and your petitioner
asks that he be credited with $24.86
and $14.41 in his assessment on Lot
4 in Finley's Add. for the cost of
this recent improvement.

Petition of Henry A. Geiger, rela-
tive to the assessment against Lots
4, 5 and 6 Finley's Add., of which he
still owns Lot 4, situated on Asbury
street. He states that some years
ago the County Supervisors approp-
riated $1,500.00 for expenditure by
the City of Dubuque for improving
Asbury street and another street,
the street was completed a distance
of about 198 ft. when the appropria-
tion was exhausted. Upon the ex-
haustion of the fund appropriated,
the City ordered the improvement of
the whole street. An assessment
was levied for the improvement and
Lots 4, 5 and 6 'were given credit
for the work that had been done in
that block and the petitioner as-
sessed for $54.76. Shortly thereafter,
ar,d prior to the completion of the
entire street, an unwarranted change
of grade was made in the street, in-
cluding the block in which the street
had been finished, which was after-
wards changed back to the original
grade. A second assessment was
levied against these lots. Your peti-
tioner paid on the first assessment
$32.00 and on the second assessment
IM7.62, with interest amounting to
$14.41. In November your petitioner
and the owners of Lots 5 and 6 in
Finley's Add., petitioned the City
Council for a cancellation of the
second assessment, which was
granted, and the amount of the sec-
ond assessment, $22.76, was applied
on the balance due on the first as-
sessment. This left a balance of
$24.86 and interest $14.41 which pe-
titioner had paid on the second as-
sessment which your body cancelled.
Asbury street has i»st recent1v been
again irlr° ^red and your petitioner
asks that he be credited with $24.86
and $14.41 in his assessment on Lot
4 in Finley's Add. for the cost of
this recent improvement.

The Amco block for which the low

in the laying of the sewer, undoubted-
ly will prove satisfactory.
I would therefore recommend the
award of this contract to the Uhlrich

structed with the Amco Block, as
their bid is the lowest bid received
for this work.

Gentlemen: On September 4th,
1894, an assessment amounting to
$107.15 was levied against Lot 51 E.
Langworthy Add, on account of the
improvement of Twenty -third street
from Jackson street to Elm street.
This lot at that time was the prop-
erty of Charles Messerknicht.
On August 20th, 1921 the city pur-
chased the tax title certificates on
account of the non- payment of this
special assessment against this lot
as levied in 1894.
The present owner Louis Cartigny
wishes to c!ear up the title to this
i;roperty and ears the sum of $53.58
in order to take care of this o -d as-
sessment.
I am sutmitting this report to
You 'ca you- consideration.

Gentlemen: In connection with the
ambulance service, I beg to advise
that the Yellow Cab Company have
agreed to furnish drivers and main-
tain a city ambulance for the sum
of $125.00 per month. All collections
made by them to apply on the stated
amount. I assume that this would
mean that this sei vice would cost,
in sedition to the first cost of the
awb' ,antes and m•aior repairs to the
ambulance, about $60,00.per month.
From August 25th to October 1st,
our ambulance has been taken care
of by Mr. Haudenschield. His
charges for that period now amount
to $42.00. I assure that the charges
for this service in this way will run
in the neighborhood of $50.00 per
month.
I do feel however that the ambu-
lance work should be taken care of
by the city, either by our own em-
ployees or through some taxi cab
company, in spite of the slightly
greater expense. A used ambulance
can be bought for $1,500 or less. • A
satisfactory new ambulance will cost
in the neighborhood of $2,500.
I am calling this again to your at-
tention in order that you may take
whatever action is deemed advisable.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARE.
City Manager,
Councilman Schrempf moved that
the City Manager be authorized to
purchase an ambulance for the city,
the price not to exceed $2,60000
Seconded by Councilman Melchior.

To the Honorable Mayor and Council
of the City of Dubuque.
Gentlemen: On December 30, 1922
Matilda Wittman fell upon an icy
sidewalk located near the North en-
trance to the Fitzgerald Cigar Store
on the West side of Main Street be-
tween 9th and 10th Street and sus-
tained a very severe fracture of both
bones in the ankle. That as a result
of such injuries she was confined to
her home and to her bed. From an
examination which I have made I
find that her injuries were and are
permanent and will disable her from
performing her ordinary household
duties for a long time. I made an
examination of the facts immediately
after the accident occurred and also
many times subsequent thereto. From
my examination I am absolutely con-
vinced that this party could receive
a very substantial verdict against
the city. She brought suit upon her
claim in the sum of $10,000.00. There
is no question in my mind but what
the case would go to a jury and the
extent of her ,injuries coupled with
the icy condition upon the sidewalk
would result in a verdict. I have
made persistent effort to settle this
case believing that it would be to
the best interests of the city to do
so. The best settlement I have been
able to make is in the sum of $1,500.
Special
I am certain that a much larger ver-
dict could be secured. For that reas-
on I recommend that a settlement be
authorized and that a warrant be
drawn in favor of Lyon and Willging
her attorneys in the sum of $1,500.00.
By the terms of settlement the plain-
tiff is to pay the costs of suit.
On March 3, 1922, Mamie Kirk fell
upon an apron extending from the
curb to the cross Walk at the North
West corner of Julien Avenue and
Center Street and as a result of such
fall sustained a fracture of her right
arm. The apron at the time this
lady fell was covered with snow and
ice and in a dangerous condition for
traffic. I am fully aware of the con-
dition existing there at that time and
that it existed there for several days
prior thereto because I came upon
the scene of the accident within a
few minutes after it occurred. I made
a careful examination of it and know
that it presented a condition which
made out a case against the city.
Miss Kirk brought suit against the
city in the sum of $5,000.00. The
nature of her injuries are such that
she was prevented from working for
a long time and her actual expense
for loss of time, surgical and medical
treatment, nursing and incidentals
was in the neighborhood of $1,100.00.
Recently I talked with this lady and
learned that the arm which was brok-
en was stiff and she has lost the nor-
mal use of it. I was able to effect
a settlement in this case of $650.00
and she to pay the costs. This has
been accepted and if this is agree-
able to your Honorable Body you
will authorize the drawing of a war-
rant in the sum of $650.00 in favor
of Kenline, Roedell and Hoffman, at-
torneys for Miss Kirk.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor.
Councilman. Melchior moved that
the report of the City Solicitor on
claims of Matilda Wittman and of
Mamie Kirk be approved and the
Auditor be instructed to draw war-

report on the Treasurer. Seconded

Petition of Daniel and Margaret
F. Daly, stating that they had built
a new modern dwelling on South
Alta Vista street, Lot 40, Oxford
Heights Add., but owing to the shape
of the lot it is impossible to connect
with the sewer wher it is now lo.
cated, so in order to get sewer con-
nections it will be necessary to run
the connection from another point
out to the street, three feet lower
than the present connection, and
they hereby ask permission to open
up the street, under proper super-
vision, so that the house can be
completed.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the petition be referred to the Mayor
and City Manager.
A petition of property owners of
the Fifth Ward presented, asking.
that the City purchase the Olinger
property lying between Jackson and
Elm streets from 24th to 25th streets
for park purposes. The petition was
referred to the Park Board. No
motion made.
Petition of August and Susan
Wieneke and Frank and Susan Kurt,
relative to the assessment for the
sanitary sewer constructed in Klin-
genberg Terrace in 1922, stating that
certain changes were made in the
location of the construction of said
sewer whereby the sewer does not
pass in front of the premises, and
it is impossible to make connections.
Therefore they receive no benefit
from this improvement and ask the
cancellation of the assessment as
levied against this property.
On recommendation of the City
717
Engineer, to whom the petition was
referred, the petition was received
and filed. The motion was made by
Councilman Gabriel and seconded by
Councilman Melchior. Carried by

October 15th, 19236
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen: The assessment as
originally levied against Sub. 4 of
Mineral Lot 144, on account of the
improvement of Fremont street, was
$1,318.71. At the request of Mr. A.
L. Rhomberg, the owner, and Henry
Becker, who had an option to buy
on the property, the assessment was
reduced on account of the value of
the property, to $925.00. This $925.00
assessment was based upon a $2,000
value of this property without the
improvement and the cost of the
improvement.
Since that time it develops that
the frontage along Fremont street is
something like 22 feet less than was
platted and less than was figured
when levying the assessment. The
total distance on Fremont street
from Grandview avenue to the angle
in Fremont street is actually within
6 feet and 9 inches of the platted
distance. It seems in running out
the property lines however, that the
Rhomberg property is something like
22 feet short.
This would mean that Shea's prop-
erty was something like 13 or 14
feet more on the ground than
shown by the records. The assess-
ment figured upon the area of this
property as actually it would be is
$1,206.63 instead of $1,318.71. Add-
ing this to the value of the prop-
erty, $2,000.00, and adding to that
the cost of water and gas connec-
tions we have about $3,500.00.
One - quarter of $3,500.00 is $875.00.
If the Council desires to make a
further adjustment on account of the
reduction in area of the property as
originally figured, a further reduc.
tion of $50.00 would seem to be fair.
This report is made on the re-
quest of Mr. Henry Becker, who has
now acquired the property.
Respectfully submitted,
O. Be CARR,
City Manager,
Councilman Gabriel moved that,
owing to the fact that the frontage
of this property is 22 feet less than
is shown on the plat, a further re-
duction of $50.00 be made on this
assessment. Seconded by Council-
man Brede. Carried by the follow-

Report of City Solicitor.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council:
Gentlemen: Hereto attached and
returned are stipulation and agree-
ment executed by Thos. Mahara for
the privilege of maintaining an air
post in front of his place of business
on thel South side of Sixth street
between Central avenue and the alley
West of Central avenue.
This stipulation has been properly
executed in form and should be
placed on file with the City Clerk.
Also herewith returned is the re-
monstrance of property owners living
along Rose street.
These people remonstrated against
the assessment for the improvement
of that street but failed to take an
appeal from the assessment as levied
by the Council within the time pro-
vided by law.
The remonstrance should therefore
be received and filed.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor.

report of the City Solicitor, upon the

Report of the City Solicitor.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council:
Gentlemen: The petition of Grun-
dy and Hird asking that the penalty
which has accrued upon the special
assessment levied against Subdivis-
ion one (1) of Boxleiter's Sub. one
(1) for the improvement of Grand-
view avenue be canceled was sub-
mitted to me for report.
I find that one installment was not
paid and this lot was sold at tax
sale for the amount of this install-
ment.
The City purchased this property
at this sale and I assume that the
penalty referred to is that which has
accrued on account of this sale.
I assume also that the owner of
this lot desires to redeem this prop-
erty and wishes to pay to the City
the amount of this instalment less
the penalty and for them to cancel
the tax certificate.
Of course the penalty accrues ac-
cording to law and the City stands
in the same position as any other
purchaser at a tax sale and if the
Council feels inclined to remit the
penalty it may do so.
However that. is a matter for the
Council to decide, and I make no
recommendation regarding the same.
The petition is herewith returned.

Report of the 'City `Solicitor.
To the Honorable Mayor and 'City
Council:
Gentlemen: A petition 'of J. K.
Kaufman asking that the assessment
against his property for the improve-
ment of Lowell street be either can-
celled or reduced, was referred to me
for report.
I 'find that the property of Mr.
Kaufman is a large lot which extends
from Lowell street to Kaufman aven-
ue and has not been subdivided. The
assessment is against the lot and as
such a lot has a value of sufficient
amount to carry the assessment.
However the part of the lot which
abuts Lowell street is a rocky, use-
less hillside and is of practically no
value.
In view of the fact that this Iot has
not been subdivided but is described
in one description I am unable to
recommend a reduction in the assess-
ment although the part of the lot
which immediately abutts the street
is of little or no value.
The petition is herewith returned
and I would recommend that it be
received and filed.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor.
Councilman Gabriel moved that the
recommendation of the City Solicitor
be approved and the petition be re-
ceived and filed. Seconded by Coun-
cilman Melchior. Carried by the fol-

Report of the City Solicitor.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council:
Gentlemen: The petition of Henry
A. Geiger asking, that he be allowed
a claim of $39.27 upon his assess-
ment for the improvement of Asbury
street agaipot lot 4 of Finley's Add.,
was referred to me for report. This
request was made because on Nov-
ember 9th, 1920, the Council cancelled
an assessment against this lot for
previous improvements and at that
time this action was taken by the
Council, the petitioner had already
paid the above sum upon the assess-
ment. I
He feels that in view of this fact
that this amount was paid and the
assessment was cancelled that he is
entitled to have this amount applied
upon his present assessment.
It seems to me that if the Council
intended that they should give some
consideration to Mr. Geiger because
of the money he had already paid
upon the assessment at the time the
assessment was cancelled it would
have ordered a refund made to him
of such amount.
This was not done and it is fair
to assume that when the Council can-
celled the assessment it intended to
cancel the unpaid "portion'thereof and
not the entire assessment. No re-
quest was made for a refund of the
amount paid, and - since the present
assessment is independent of any
other previous assessment it would
involve a good deal of juggling of
accounts to grant the request of the
petitioner. I do not make any recom.
mendation regarding this petition but
submit the above facts for your con-
sideration.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor.
Councilman Melchior moved that
the petition be received and filed.

John and Anna Haupert against the

ment of Lowell street in so far as
it affects lots 116 -117 and 118 Mech-
anic's Addition has been referred to

I beg to advise you that I have
examined into the objections urged
and respectfully recommend that the
remonstrance be received and filed.

Report of the City Solicitor.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council:
Gentlemen: Bertha Bremer fell
on an icy sidewalk in front of No.
374 Kaufman avenue, on February
10th, 1923. She sustained personal
injuries as a result of such fall. The
amount claimed by her is $200.00.
I beg to report that I have investi-
gated this claim and that there was
no liability upon the City as a result
of such injuries.
I also wish to advise you that the
claim which was filed with the City
bears date of August 7th, 1923, which
Is more than sixty (60) days after
the injuries were sustained and for
that reason the claim does not com-
ply with the law.
I would therefore recommend that
the claim be received and filed.
Respectfully submitted,
H. M. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor,
Councilman Gabriel moved that the
report of the City Solicitor be ap-
proved and the petition be received

bers of the Council are present.

Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: On September 4th,
1894, there was a special assessment
levied against Lot 172, Union Addi-
tion, for the improvement of Rush
street, amounting to $67.66. Also on
December 17th, 1914, a special as-
sessment was levied against this
same lot for the construction of a
sidewalk, amounting to $58.62. There
were also special assessments levied
in 1910, 1915, 1918 and 1919, amount-
ing to $4.60, for cleaning sidewalk,
all of which remain unpaid.
This property belonged to Thomas
Kenneally. It lies some twenty feet
below the grade of Rush street and
is of comparatively little value. He
has sold the same to William Red -
mound, who has paid the state and
county taxes amounting to a little
over $25.00 and has paid some $38.00
for the satisfaction of judgment of
long standing against this property.
I would respectfully recommend
that on the payment of $37.81 by
Mr. Redmound all outstanding delin-
quent special assessments for all
Purposes be cancelled.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,

On December 1st, 1891, an assess-
ment was levied against Lot 394,
Ham's Addition, on account of the
improvement of Rhomberg avenue
from Fifth avenue to the railroad
tracks, by curbing, guttering and
macadamizing this street.
This lot was owned by J. A. Rhom-
berg. The original assessment was
$93.67. The first installment was
paid, likewise the interest on the
balance was paid up to December
4th, 1899. The balance unpaid at
that time was $80.29.
This property was bought in by
the City for delinquent taxes in
April, 1921, for $99.96, including in-
terest and costs. The present own-
er, Mrs. Clara Eicbman, has offered
to pay the sum of $50:00 for the
clearing of these old taxes. I would
therefore recommend that the City
Treasurer be instructed to cancel
and surrender to Mrs. Eichman the
tax title certificate 'covering the sale
of this property to the City.
Respectfully submitted,

Petition of the Dubuque Chamber
of Commerce, referred to the City
Council by the Board of Supervisors,
stating that it is the owner of Lot
No. 632 in the City of Dubuque, to-
gether with the buildings and im-
provements thereon; that it acquired
said property by a deed from the
Key City Building Club dated April
4th, 1922, and that said property
since it was acquired by your peti-
tioner is exempt from taxation.
That for the year 1922, as your
petitioner is informed, no new as-
sessment of real estate was made,
but the assessment of 1921 was car-
ried forward and there appears on
the tax books in the hands of the
County Treasurer the assessment of
a tax for the year 1922 against said
property in the sum of $1,383.71,
same being assessed against The
Key City Building Club, who was
the former owner of said property.
Your petitioner prays that said tax
for the year 1922 be cancelled and
that said property be stricken from
the tax books of the year 1923 and
subsequent years.
Respectfully submitted,
DUBUQUE CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE,

Petition of the Corn Belt Packing
Co., referred to the City Council by
the Board of Supervisors, stating
that the plant has not been operat-
ing for more than a year; that its
total taxes for the year 1922 aniounts
to $9,959.83 on a taxable valuation
of $69,820.00, the taxable valuation
being one - fourth, would make the
plant valued at four times that
amount, or $279,280.00 for the pur-
pose of taxation; that under the
present circumstances this amount
is too high, and the petitioner be-
lieves that they should be permitted
to pay the taxes on a total valuation
of $150,000.00, and as it has hereto-
fore paid one -half of the taxes, or
$4,979.92, it asks that it be permitted
to pay in full of the balance of said
taxes for 1922, the tax upon a basis
of $150,000.00; that the plant is be-
ing reorganized; that there is no per-
sonal property on hand, and if rea-
sonable arrangements can be made
the plant will again be operated, and
is in course of reorganization, and
hopes to be able to give employment
to a large number of men before the
first day of January. If this is done,
the company will be in better shape
to pay the taxes and will be subject
to a larger tax in the future.
