Estimates-FireWorks and Multi
Band Parade Frowned Upon.

B8nQ HdTdue IIoWutN pm.
Dedication OF the World war me-
mortal at a cost of approximately
$4,000 seemed possible last night
after the finance committee meeting
with chairmen of the several sub
committees had effected slashes in
the original budget of 100000.
This action followed rejection by
the chairmen of a recommendation
by Chairman George H. Dyson of
the general committee that all
work done so far be abandoned and
that the common council be asked
to sanction a new start along radi-
(cally different lines and with the
American Legion practically IN
charge.
Some of the Slashes
Among the reductions in appro-
prlations made with the approval OF
sub b-committees are: Badges. S2,50o
to $3.50. with the purchase of gold
stars for the nearest of Kin to de-
ceased servcemen undecided; pa
rade. $500 to $780, souvenir pro-
gram. s1.400 to $500; publicity.

tentatively cut to s2.75o; grand
stands and decorations. $500 to
$500; ground arrangements, $4,000
to $1,000. The fireworks display has
