CLAIMED THAT TO MEET THE
HEAVY COST OF IMPROVEMENT
1T WILL BE NECESSARY TO
RAISE THE CITY TAX LEVY.
IN PECULIAR STRAIGHTS.
City Has Already Borrowed Within
The $4,000 of Its Capacity. Ac-
cordins to Law Which compIicates
Matters.

1t Is estimated that if all the inn
prOvements the city has now under
way. contemplated or petitioned for
this year are completed, the excess
Of the citys expenses over its income
will al the end of the year amount
to $90.75H.93. This estimate is based
on the City's receipts and disburse-
ments for the past year.
This year TWO big sewer systems
are to be constructed. of which the
City's share of the cost will be about
$4,000. The Northwest Second street
viaduCt is TO be built. of which the
city will pay about So 600 of the
cost. The street work will cost about
100000 and if the recommendations
of Chief Miller of the fire department
are complied with, il is estimated that
the city treasury will be drawn upon
for about sl5,000 10 meet this expense
The minor public improvements will
figure up to about $4,000 at a c0nser-
vatiVe estimate.
The past year the disbursements of
the city amounted to s277.74667.
These disbursements included the
! Charters claim, the Lincoln iudg-
ment, the improvement of the Doran
bridge, the Improvement of the mar
ket house and the light plant extern
siOns. All of these expenses totaIed
up to the amount of s39520.3f
In making an estimate of the re-
ceipts and disbursements of this year.
using the receipts and disbursements
/ for the past year as a basis, this S39.-
/ 520.3l is deducted from the disburse-
mcnt column. but in the place of this
sum. there is added TO the prospective
disbursements of this year. the sum
OF 100000 for the principal improve
monts under way, conte emplated or pc
ttiOned for This would bring the
total amount OF disbursements for the
I present year up TO a total of S32S 226.-
50.
Last year the city's receipts amount
ed to $270.330.4l and included the
amount of s32 .S26.9S. omitted taxes,
collected by Charters. the tax adius.
tor. This year Charters has no con.
tract with the city so it is presumed
that no omitted taxes will be collected
and placed in the city treasury. In
making an estimate Of the receipts OF
the city this year. this s32.8629s is
deducted, leaving the total prospec-
tive receipts 1921. .467.43. Deducting
this sum from the prospective dis
bursements. 1925 .22636. it would leave
an excess of disbursements over re-
ceipts amounting TO sll3. .6s0Os.
These figures show that the finan-
cial condition Of the city at the pres
ent time Is extremely poor and mat
it is necessary for the city govern
ment to practice the most rigid econ
omy At the present time the city
TAX rate is S1.lo. This tax rate is too
low 10 meet the expenses Of the city
and many of the city officials think
that it will be necessary TO raise this
rate TO sl.25. The city has now bor-
rowed within sHo0oO of the amount
permitted by law
