Senate hearings on the $48,276,717
District supply bill for the next fiscal
year began today, with officials of
the Free Public Library and the
Sewer Division asking for restoration
OF items cut from the budget es-
Inmates in the House.
Moving ahead rapidly, the sub
comr.ittee continued in session past
the noon hour, with public school
officials presenting testimony in sup
port of a variety of comparatively
small increases throughout the
school budget.
In view of the fact that the bill
as it passed the House was regarded
as likely to exceed the city's revenue
collections under the present tax
structure, the Commissioners entered
the Senate hearings prepared to ask
for total of only s633 ,859, about
half of the reduction the House
made in budget figures.
One of the first witnesses called
this morning by Chairman Overton
of Louisiana, was DR.. George F.
Bowerman, librarian of the Free
Public Library, who explained the
need for restoration of part of the
reductions made in the House.
The Commissioners asked the
Senate to raise the library's book
fund from $72,5O0 to $4,000 and the
binding fund from $17,5O0 to $40 900.
A small increase in the maintenance
fund also was requested.
The higher figure for the book
fund would leave the item for orig
inal stocking of the Southwestern
Branch at 5000, but would make
$55,000 available for the Central
Library and other branches. This
would still be $4,000 less than the
current book fund.
Several changes in the sewer pro-
gram were asked by j. B. Gordon,
sanitary engineer. To extend storm
water and trunk sewers into newly
developed areas, the subcommittee
was asked to add $25 900 to the
House figure of 100000.
Calling attention to increased
building activity, officials also asked
that the appropriation for assess
ment and permit sewers be raised
from s275,000 to $300.0o0
