With the majority of students and Friday and Saturday. teachers in Utah schools registered and actual class work scheduled for Monday, we feel that the coming year will be the best in a decade, he said. Schools in Utah last year closed with a balanced budget, due to approximately $400,000 in redemption taxes accruing to the system. The Home Owners Loan corporation was largely responsible for the favorable condition of the budget, Mr. Skidmore declared. TAXES PAID UP H. Before the corporation recognized or accepted an application for a loan, all back taxes must have been paid. Many of these taxes were delinquent, j and when the schools were credited with their share of the property tax we discovered we had in excess of $400,000 that would otherwise be lost Julia Hansen Hunsaker, age the superintendent died Saturday, Sept. 7th at six a. m to the system, at her home in Honeyville, surround- reports.
