s35O,uuv TILL BE ASKED FUR HEALTH WORK
Five Year Program Requires Special Tax and Will Result in $1 Per Capita Annual Revenue States Dr.
 Bowling

Annual revenue for health work in Birmingham and Jefferson county of more than $85O,000 will result from a five-year program of financial legislation now being mapped out by Dr. J. D. Bowling, city and county health officer, CO., operating with the board of health and appropriating bodies, Dr. Dowl- ing declared Wednesday, after a conference between the board of health and the county board of rev enue. in the office of Mrs. Mary Echols, city commissioner of health.
 This amount, representing $1 per capita, is more than double the pres ent appropriations of both city and county. The program, which will take some time to work out, con templates a special tax levy for health work similar to that for schools. The present per capita is slightly more than 40 cents. The differential is to be made up by an- nual increases of F or 15 cents for the next four or five years. Dr. Bowling said he believed this pro- gram, now being officially consid- cred, would be carried through.
 Increase of $27,OOO
 For the coming year, the board of health will ask an appropriation of s75,00G, or an increase of $27,000 over last years original budget of $4S,000. Dr. Bowling said, after the board of revenue had asked that the board of health submit program for next years expenditures within the next few days. At Least $65,00o is neees- sary to maintain the work as at pres ent, he said, and an appropriation

 will be asked that will enable some expansion, he said.
 Members of the board of revenue did not indicate how the demands of the board of health would be re- eeived. They said they would wait until a definite program was pre- scented. and then determine how much could be appropriated for the work.
 Last year, the health department spent approximately $63,00 of county funds. or s14,500 more than the original budget. Late in Sep tsmber, when the department had ex pended all but approximately S4,000 of the S4s,000 appropriated by the county, pr Bowling presented plea for an additional sum of $10.000 to carry him over to the first of Janu- ary.
 The petition of pr. Bowling met with vigorous opposition by some members of the board of revenue. After much argument. an additional the board, but 1t was done over pro test of D. c. Ball, chairman, and W. B. Copeland. MT Copeland made statement in which he declared that Dr. Bowling was managing the department inefficiently and was paying eXorbitant salaries.
 After the additional $7500 had been voted, near the first of October, the department went $7,00O over it's then appropriation, making total county expenditures for the year of approximately S63,000.
 The department also exceeded it's appropriation from the city, which was $S0,000 for the fiscal year. To- tai expenditures out of city and county funds for the calendar year ran in the neighborhood of s150.0o0. It is difficult to determine exact ex- penditures from reports, since county figures are based on calendar year and city figures on fiscal year busi- ness. The city comptrollers' report for the month of December has not been issued
 The conference was attended by the following members of the board of revenue: D. c. Ball. chairman: W. B. Copeland T. E. Huey and Lacey Edmundson. The following members of the board of health: nr. II. $. Ward, president; pr. w. P. Mo Adory and pr. Lloyd Noland; pr. Bowling and Mrs. Echols.
