RELIEF SITUATION ROSY in
COIJNTIES EXCEPTGARRETT
This County Only Will Have In
sufficient Funds To Carry On
Work Under New Program
BALTIMORE CITY SHORT

While Baltimore City must retrench
drastically to finance relief with cur
tailed funds, the situation in the coun-
ties is comparatively rosy, estimates
made up from State figures showed
Yesterday, according to news story
in this mornings Baltimore Sun.
All of the counties except Garrett
will get sufficient money from the new
tax program to meet their relief needs.
And most of them will have a surplus
to boot, to be applied to reduction of
local real estate taxes.
City Receives 60 Per Cent
Baltimore will get sixty per cent of
the State funds for direct relief, but
the S7770O0 year this is estimated to
Weld, is only about half what she has
been spending. The counties, on the
other hand, can pocket tidy profit out
of their $4,000 shares.
Figures of the Board of State Aid
and Charities show that in the year
ended April 1 the counties spent a total
of $357,S1 This is $172,18 year less
than they may expect to receive from
the new taxes.
$1,72O,00O Available
The total sum estimated to be avail
able for direct relief is $1,120,000 a
year, plus a carryover of about $780,
900 from last year. The money is dis
tributed to Baltimore and the counties
on 60-40 basis.
Applying population percentages to
the counties anticipated share, a table
has been prepared showing that only
Garrett and Frederick counties would
get each year relief fund less than
their actual expenditures in the year
just ended.
Frederick's loss is slight, and the
Board of State Aid and Charities is
concerned only about Garrett, which
has been in difficulties for some time.
This county, in the coal-mining area,
was carrying a relief deficit of $780,
76O on April and will have to meet
this from local resources.
At the other extreme is wealthy
Baltimore county, which has fifteen
per cent Of the total county popula-
ton of the State but only six per cent
of the county relief funds.
Baltimore county will get $78,364
for direct relief if the program yields
according to estimates. Actual expen-
ditures during the year ending April
l were $30,S18.75.
Baltimore County Well OFF
Since relief conditions are expected
to be no more serious this year than
last, the county may look forward to
pocketing approximately $4,000 a
year, which can be used to reduce the
local real estate levy.
