Prior to 1915 the aggregate amount In these communities was
$11,625,808; it is now $25,265,228 j this is an increase of $13,640,318,
or 118 per cent,
This is only a beginning, and it would seem as though the sur-
face has been scratched only. In some counties the Commission
encountered opposition and antagonism, because the County Com-
missioners refused to allow the clerks of the Board to mail the
notices to prospective holders. In some counties the results are
not satisfactory. In some others the Commission found willing
workers, but generally these were ignorant of the law and not
familiar with the manner of insisting upon returns. Some of these
officials deserve credit for the earnest efforts.
The reason that Baltimore City and Baltimore County have not
been considered in the compilation is because both of these com-
munities continuously endeavor to discover and assess the property,
and the results would seem to show in the increase from year to
year.
