MAYOR WHITE CLAIMS
RAISE IN CITY TAXES
NECESSARY In 1947-48

That the city tax rate will be
Increased in the 19z7-48 fiscal year
is nearly a certainty.
Mayor E. L. White is the author.
ity for that statement. He told a
joint melting o: the council and
county commissioners that there
is no other way of maintaining
local government operations.
eff we don't increase the tax
rate, the city will be way. way Ii
the red at the end Of this fiscal
year." the mayor asserted. His
statement came during a discus.
sion of financial support Of the
Associated Charities.
"Taxes must be increased as
much as we hate to do it," he
said. He added that he believed
the the local governments made
q mistake in cutting the rate from
the $1.50 figure where it was a
few years ago.
