granted 20 for the payment of December through general tax I believe that we should examine the collective cost of the delayed payment Based on 1965 and 1966 taxes (actual 1967 figures are not yet available) the general property tax receivable December 20 is about $563 million The interest revenue lost over the y period is about $125000 using an interest rate of 4 per cent per annum which is available to government bodies in securities eligible for their investment For those of us who anticipated the November 30 date there is little opportunity to earn interest over the y period For the alleged beneficiaries of the extended due date I question whether the 20 days will make a significant difference in their ability to pay There is no question that the copper Indus 20-da- -
