SEC. 4. And be it further enacted, That the Berwyn Citi-

year, not, however, to exceed 5 cents on the $100 on the assess-
ment for all general purposes, except as hereinafter provided.
All taxes for special purposes authorized under this Act, or
under any succeeding Acts shall be levied at the same time, and

person, partnership or corporation against whom they may be
levied. The taxes so levied shall be due and payable on the first
day of August next succeeding the levy thereof, and shall be in
arrears and subject to interest from and after that date. It
shall be the duty of the Treasurer of the Berwyn Citizens' Com-
mittee within ten days after the levy has been made to notify
each person against whom, or the known owner of each piece of
property against which any tax has been levied by placing a
tax bill showing the amount due in the United States mail with
sufficient postage prepaid, addressed to such persons or owners
at their last known postoffice addresses. In case such owner or
owners are unknown, such bills shall be left, or set up upon the
premises against which the taxes are levied. All taxes shall be
payable to the Treasurer of the Berwyn Citizens' Committee,
and his receipt therefor shall be the receipt of the Berwyn Citi-
zens' Committee.
All taxes levied against real and personal property in said
town which are not paid on or before the 31st day of December
in the year of their levy, shall be in default, and it shall then
be the duty of the Treasurer of the Berwyn Citizens' Committee
to advertise all such real property for public sale on or before
the third Monday in February of the year succeeding the year
for which said taxes remain unpaid, by advertisement in a
weekly newspaper published in said town, or if there be no
paper published in said town, then in some paper published
elsewhere in Prince George's County, at least three weeks before
such sale, which advertisement shall state the day of sale, the
name of the party in whom the property is assessed, if known.
