Milwaukee County Regulates Pact
That Got S255, 900 From LegisIa-
ture for Exposition Aid.

Asserting that Milwaukee taxpayers
are already heavily burdened with
taxes and contending that former
Chairman SchWemer of the Milwaukee
county board made an unauthorized
promise to the legislature that the
county would donate certain lands for
state purposes a delegation from the
board told the joint finance committee
of the legislature at Madison that the
county cannot assume the burden Of
giving the land to the state.
Senator w J. Bichler, replying,
charged that the county board had
fooled the legislature palpably He
said that admission by the supervisors
might be justification for renewal of
activity by other localities in the state
for the removal Of the fair.

900 for state fair Improvements, con
ditioned on donation by Milwaukee
