COUNCIL AS A
WHOLE TO FIX
NEW TAX RATE

Councilman w. r. Stover. chairman
of the finance committee of City Coun-
Gil, will introduce an innovation at
the regular meeting of that body to-
night. Heretofore the finance com
mittee of Council has fixed the tax
rate and passed upon the budget for
the next fiscal year, reporting to
Council and having that body adopt
the recommendation made. Tonight
Mr. Stover will present both matters
to Council as a committee of the
whole. in open meeting. and not only
discuss and pass upon the budget but
to decide on the tax rate for the next
fiscal year.
II has been suggested that the tax
rate be increased from $3.50 to $1.6O
a year.
An increase of 10 cents in the tax
rate would net the city $4,000 in
creased revenue. This would be a few
thousand dollars less than the extra
expenses the Council will have to
meet during the next year An in
crease of Is cents in the tav rate
would net the city SS2.50O. or just
about enough to reiuvenate the de-
pleted treasury and establish a finan-
cial foundation upon which the city
could work without any apprehension
for several years.

one is needed there. He will take up
this matter with the Board of Police
