Taxpayers allegedly save $100,000 under Hatfield relief

State Auditor Edger C. Lawson estimated that taxpayers saved about 100,000 under the Hatfield relief measures for delinquent tax lands. The 1931 law allowed redemption of 1928 and 1929 delinquencies by paying only taxes, with no interest or penalties, and for forfeited lands before 1927 by paying interest only. Between March 16 and June 1, there were 6,310 redeemations totaling 352,186.01, versus 2,785 redeemations totaling 187,639.14 in the previous period. The relief bills run until late November.
