MR. ZIMMERMAN WON’T PAY
The following self-explanatory letter has been made public at the office of the deputy city collector’s office in Brooklyn, says a New York message to the Chicago Tribune: — “Dear Deputy City Collector: “May I inform you (for the third time) that I have made every effort to persuade Mr. Leon Zimmerman to meet his obligations to the city of New York, especially the retail sales tax. And for the third time may I inform you he refused to'listen to me. The first time you requested the tax receipts, Mr. Leon Zimmerman was dead. He was dead the second time you wrote. He is still dead. But don’t despair. Try me again when the next instalment is due. Perhaps we'll have more luck. Or, better still, suppose you run down to the Maspeth Cemetery (path 3, plot 33) and see it you can't persuade him to see your side of it. (Signed) "EDWARD ZIMMERMAN.”
