Tentative Budget for Year
Will be Further Consider
ed by Commissioners To-
day.
TOTAL ASSESSMENT
MAY BE 80 MILLS
Assumption of Considerable
Amount of Road and 9th
er Improvement Work
Stated Reason for In
crease.

Escambia county will pay heavily
in taxes for the next fiscal year with
a probable increase OF IL mills. Al
ready % mills have been apportioned
with merely state and school board
taxation needs taken care OF without
a levy for the county, as against n
total of 23 mills last year. With this
in view the board of commissioners
can not hope to have less than a 3c-
mill assessment IL was stated yes
terday.
The assessment now stands with
12-mill levy for the state, a 10-miil
levy for the school board and the
county millage yet TO be made. Last
year the assessment called for mills
in state, in school board and in
county taxes.
1t is claimed that the increased tax
levy must be made for a vast amount
of Improvement work, including the
issuing of time warrants for work on
county roads and bridges. Levying
for the mothers pension bill has been
left optional with the counties ac-
cording to the provisions OF the bill
passed at the recent session OF the
state legislature.
The tentative budget will be sub
mitted to the board of county COM
missioners when they meet this morn
ing, and then prepared for advertis-
ing. 1t may be reduced, but not in
creased after publication.
Bids will be received and opened
this morning for the purchase of 500
900 in time warrants, the proceeds
of which will be used for the COM
pletion of the paved highway to con-
meet with the road from Fort Bar
rancas TO the reservation side OF
Bayou Grande. The county pavement
has extended as far as the Halfway
House, where work was stopped when
funds We're exhausted. The floating of
the bond issue will make possible the
of TIE pavement and the
16-foot paved driveway from the city
to the army post and on to the naval
air station.
Two members of the county board
will be named today to confer with
officials of the state highway commits
sion and to register a kick against
the alleged neglect of Escambia in
the matter of federal and state aid
for contemplated roads and bridges.
The question of full-time health
officer will be taken up and other
matters settled.

MATTER OUT OF MIND
Chief Executive Spen d S

Working on Accunulat-
ed Important Business.

Washington, July 11.-Senate
leaders in the League of Ma
tions controversy continued con-
ferences today in preparation
for the ratification fight which
will begin when the senate con-

said the exact lines of division
might not be drawn for some
days, further progress in solidi-
flying their forces was claimed
by both sides.
President Wilson having de-
livered the treaty to the senate
apparently put the matter tenn
porarily out of his mind. He
saw none of the senators who
have been active in the fight
and while he conferred with Act
ing Secretary Polk at the state
department, it was understood
other subjects furnished a basis
of their discussion.
The president had another busy day
today. He spent many hours in his

curnulated while he was returning

net officers and late in the day signed |

however. the agricultural bill with it's
rider for repeal of the daylight savinG |
