Send Dollars
For Defense
BY TNEZ ROBB

NEW YORK. March 3.-Quite
a number of very plain, very
ordinary citizens have been
writing love letters recently 10
Uncle Sam. Probably no one
viii be more surprised than the
correspondents themselves to
have their letters thus classified.
But out of these letters have
trickled a little stream of one,
occasionally two and very, very
occasionally five dollar bills.
These the writer's request the
income tax division of the bureau
of internal revenue to turn over
to Uncle Sam for his national
defense program.
These are the contributions of
men and women whose net in
comes are too small to warrant
an income tax. They have noted,
nonethelesS, the new 10 per cent
additional tax included in the
income tax this year for the pur-
poses of national defense. And
even though they have no tech
meal tax liability. these men and
women want to feel they are
helping in that program to de-
fend Uncle Sam.

County's Deportation
Of Family Empty Victory
BY the Associated Press.

WHITE PLAINS, N. Y, May O.
Westchester County is going to de-
port the Chirillo family at last
but it looks like an empty victory
because they're coming back.
The county fought through the
courts and won the right to deport
Rosario Chirillo and his two chill
dren to Wooster. Ohio, their former
home, because they became public
charges in 1899 before living in the
county a year.
Chirillo, cobbler, established
himself in business and offered to
refund the s116 relief money he had
received. The county chose to battle
for principle and won, but
Chirillo says he'll come back from
Wooster on the next train and
authorities agree that he can't be
deported another time unless he
seeks relief again.

Auditor Gen. George Engel to-
day dug up a $4,4000O0 nest egf
in the city's cash register which
puld be used to lessen the an
sNcipated drastic increase in taxes
scheduled for next fiscal year.
The item consists Of surplus
in the sinking fund brought about
chiefly by the recent refundinp
of large portion Of tax supported
bonds.
Engel is opposed TO using these
funds for general city expendi-
lures and contends it would be
unwise to follow any course other
than hold them in the bank
against rainy day.

However. he comedies that the
surplus is there and could be
used legally 10 decrease the SIT
100000 the taxpayers will have "a
raise next year for debt service
requirements.
Engel'S disclosure may upset 10
some extent many OF the previous
predictions that have been made
about next years budget
Budget Director David V Addy
had estimated a month ago that
an liz per cent increase would
probably be required in next years

operating at its present level OF
activity.
Addy foreSaw a tax budget OF
S74,054 ,424 for next year as COM
pared TO SEE. 563,224 for the
current year-an increase OF
$7491, 900.
These computations were based
entirely on unavoidable cost in
creaSes such as debt service, pen
sions, and increased cost Of
materials without considering pro-
posed city pay increases.

billed again the city's fiscal eX-
perts have been predicting in

high as IS or even 20 per cent.

He showed that the city's float
ing deficit has dropped from Sl3,-

The city bonded debt is still
$50. 100000 above the legal limit.
but Engel estimates that increased
VALUATIONS and further reductions
in the debt viii bring this within
the legal limit inside OF thre c
years.
Engel reported an increase in
general city expenditures for last
year of S208,374 over the Sl0l,-
385, 063 which the city spent dur
ing the 1939-40 fiscal year.
This increase was more than
justified in EngclS opinion by in
creased services offered such as
a longer school year more street
paving and the necessity for hold
ing one additional election.
