tions to Oppose Mayors

pairing to hight the plans OF municipal finan-
clers. The nght will be led by such organi-
cations as tile Philadelphia Real Estate

partmental budgets in shape for fnal action

but the more important budgets.
The unusual demands for new places and

ered by tax rate increase OF not more
than thirty-five cents
The budgets call for s42.s4s.s75.7s as
compared with the approximately sac, ,ooO.-
600 allowed this year. A large proportion
