GROUP LEADERS ACT
Bill Avery Calls Meeting of House Presidents for Tomorrow
In the meantime, Sherif Jack Dunkle is making no move to collect taxes, since he has received no delinquent tax warrants from the treasurer.
Mr. Hoover said he was still seeking legal advice, and probably would be able to announce his decision within a few days.
Avery Calls Meeting
Collection of certain delinquent personal property taxes against University fraternities, scheduled to begin today, was delayed when County Treasurer L. E. Hoover received a supplementary payment from Richard B. Stevens, county attorney.
The farthest entered the case actively again today when Bill Avery, president of the House Presidents' association, called a meeting for tomorrow afternoon to consider what steps the fraternities will have to take in situation. He has each house president to bring an alumnus as an adviser.
In his supplementary opinion, the county attorney advises the treasurer he is seeking further advice from the state attorney general, and he points out, also, that while he still is of the opinion that the law of the recent legislature cancelling certain delinquent taxes against real and personal property of fraterities may not be the text of the law, and has every right to follow that law until stopped by action in some court of competent jurisdiction.
Stevens Sends Letter
Following is Mr. Stevens' letter of today:
"Supplementary to my opinion reendered to you on April 1."
'Question has arisen as to whether you are compelled to act on the opinion of the county attorney. Be advised:
"The county attorney is in no sense a final arbitrator of the constitutionality of the question, and as to whether or not the fraternity tax remission bill was constitutional, and I advised you that in my opinion it was not, and I again affirmed that
I have checked the matter with the attorney general, and will advise you further of his opinion.
"However, there is a state law on the statute books, and you may elect to follow that law, and elect to ignore the opinion of the county attorney if
"You may legally proceed under the present law until a court of competent jurisdiction hinders you from being brought by any aggrieved taxpayer, and decided by the court on the question brought. You may wait if you choose for such legal event."
"There will be on seizure of fraternity property today for delinquent taxes," said Mr. Stevens. "The county officials do not want to cause unnecessary inconvenience, and we are anxious (a) have this thing settled right."
No Seizure Today
"We want to be sure of our ground before this test gets into the courts, and for that reason I want to consult the state attorney general's office. We have said we will be able if it probably will be several weeks before final decision can be reached."
