League Hopes To Force Back Tax Contract
Arthur Michael of the Taxpayers' Defense league aims to compel District Attorney John R. Shook to approve a contract with a Fort Worth firm to collect delinquent taxes in Bexar County. A meeting is set for Wednesday afternoon with E. S. Pritchard and B. G. Aycock attending. Judge Charles W. Anderson and county officials are involved. Shook opposes outsourcing, preferring the county to manage tax collection. Estimates of back taxes range from 300000 to 900000. Shook said last year he collected 100000, but Michael insists 99000 came from sold properties.
