given tentative approval TO six

one for the Boca Chica airport.

health and two mills for WPA

Ramsey said Lee was ready to
chop off the one mill for the
Boca Chica airport bonds along
with the rest, but decided later
that he would permit that ex-
penditure as the will of the
people, since it was voted upon
and approved in a freeholders'
election.
Lees action, although uneX-
pected in its severity. was not
entirely a surprise, since the state
law requiring valuation on a 100
per cent basis provided that the
counties must cut their millage
in direct ratio to the value in
crease. Thus. Monroe county's
sos per cent increase in valua-
ton meant that the millage rate
had to be cut 503 per cent from
last years figure.
Commissioners today said they
do not see how it will be pos
sible to run the county on the
amount of money allowed them
tentatively by Lee. for. in addi-
