hearty applause. The school chil

REVENUE CLERKS
TRANSFERRED
Expected Some of Them Will
Be Assigned Here From
Lancaster
Lancaster, Pa., Oct. 6. Official
announcement received at the local
revenue office from Collector Eph
raim Ledcrer, of the First District of
Pennsylvania, advises the transfer
of 14 clerks to the Philadelphia of
fice on Tuesday, October 11.
The receipt of the order relieves
the tension among these employes
but leaves a doubt as to the final dis
position of about ten others. It is
possible that these ten deputy col
lectors will be assigned to Lancaster
and other branch offices to be cre
ated under the reorganized plan. The
next few days will see the announce
ment of the permanent assignments
in the office at Lancaster, York,
Harrisburg and Altoona.

of the local office and it is possible
that he will be retained as such.
Commissioner Roper's plan is to
place within reach of the taxpayers
conveniences looking to the under
standing of the taxation laws, as
well as facility In making payment
