Budget Commission.

Unless the County Budget Commits
County Auditor stelnbrunner.
Treasurer Benke, and Prosecuting
Attorney Myers-see ft to grant the
demands Of the Finance Committee
Of the Village Council in increasing
the Budget Levy from 1.3 mills to at
least mills every member Of the
present council and the Mayor will
probably resign their jobs.
In making up the levy the Budget
Commission divided the FIVE mills al
lotted the corporation and schools for
general running expense as follows:
Schools $40 mills; corporation 100
mills.
Under this levy division the cor
poration would get about $4,000 for
running expense and the schools
about $4,000.
While this division will raise sur-
hclent money to run the schools. It
falls far short of caring for the
wanst of the town, the salaries of Of
ficers alone totaling almost nine
thousand dollars, or three thousand
dollars more than allotted by the pre-
sent budget evy. Granting $500
additional collection through liquor
license levy the council would have
only sufficient means to pay expenses
of Office saaries.
over and above this is the expense
of running the fire department, po-
lice department, street cleaning de-
partment, Board of Public Affairs al
Iowances, Legal advertising and the
like which amounts annually to about
$4,000.
The Mayor and finance committee
this week took up with the Commits
sion the matter of more evenly di-
viding the levy. DR.. J. E. Hattery,
president of the Board Of Education
was also present at the meeting and
objected strenously to having the
school levy reduced.
The Commission failed to give the
corporation officers any satisfaction,
and this, yesterday prompted the
Mayor and Council to announce they
were willing to close up shop unless
granted at least a sufficient levy to
properly conduct the village affairs.
Four years ago the levy was almost
equally divided; three years ago the
corporation was cut to little better
than 2 mills; two years ago it was
again reduced 10 mills; last
year the school board raised a kick
for more money and the town levy
was cut to 1.50 mills. The climax
came when the attempt was made to
reduce it to 1.30 this year, when at
the same time he corporation had
deficit in all funds last year, amount
to about $4,000, while the school
board had baalnce of something oY-
er $1,000.
This balance in the school fund
was utilized to repair the East School
while several thousand dol
lars more were borrowed to cover the
work, which will amount to about
$4,000.
Had the school board cared for this
by bond issue as they should the
present trouble would not have arts-
en- as the amount they ask for in their
levy is made sufficient to replace hte
money expended for tn East building

GROCER WILL UNGERER VERY
HL-RECOVERY DOUBTFUL

Mrs VIM. Ungerer, West Fayette
street, was severely burned about the
face by boiling hot soup Wednesday
afternoon. The hot liquid splashed
in her face as she was removing it
from the stove. She wears glasses
and this feat probably saved her
eyes from being badly burned.
Her husband, VIM. Ungerer, the
south Main street grocer, still contin-
ues in serious condition, with but
slight hopes of recovery.

cation of animals, the cultivation of
cereals and the melting of minerals.
From these elements have developed
agriculture and industry. the hand
maidens of modern life.
Until the days of the industrial reyo-
luton. agriculture held undisputed
sway as the leading occupation of
mankind. With the development of
machinery, which was first applied to
industrial processes, cities grew up,
and modern urban civilization was
founded. Agriculture was pushed into
the background: the new social prob
lens arising from city life usurped
the attention of Legislators and edu-
Gators.
But of recent years this one sided
and artificial development of civiiZa-
tion has been checked With the ap-
plicatiOn of machinery To the tilling
of the soil and of science to the breed
ing of domestic animals. the pendulum
has been swinging back. until today
scientific agriculture is receiving the
greatest attention. The appointment
of the Country Life Commission and
the agitation of rural credits and for
systems are symptomatic
Of the new interest in the social and
economic aspects of rural life.
Recent events have clearly demon
strated the fallacy of the exclusively
industrial state. and one of the leading
problems of modern statecraft con-
sists in restoring and maintaining the |
proper balance between city and coun- |
