Senate Passes Bill
For Daylight Saving
Without Opposition

The Senate yesterday passed,
without a single objection, the
Case Bill to permit the District

The bill now goes to the House,

Montgomery Rise
In AssessabIe Base
Cuts School Funds

Montgomery County's sky
rocketing assessable base, ex-
pected to rise $13O million this
year, has nearly deprived the
county of sharing in State school
equalization funds.
While the county is being
asked to approve a $10.4 million
operating budget for fiscal 1853
1954-nearly So million more
than is being spent this year
officials are confronted with the
fact it will get some 1927 900 less
in State aid.
The loss is attributed to a
decrease in equalization funds
which drop next year to an esti-
mated $4,000. During the pres
ent year school officials expect
to get $537,080 from this source,
Formula Evolved in 192Os.
The equalization payment
from the State is based on a
formula established in the 1920s
aimed at providing a minimum
program throughout the State
regardless of where the heaviest
tax sources were.
AS a county's assessable base
rises. theoretically it's share OF
the equalization fund decreases
And for every $4,000 added to
the county's assessable base
school officials say, the county
loses some SOS in equalization
funds. ..
The county is expected to re-
ceive about $1,481 900 from all
State sources next year. This
year Montgomery is getting
about $1.8 million from the
State.
Other Aid Increased.
Part of the shock of the equali-
cation fund slash was relieved
by increases in other State aid
sources such as in the aid per
pupil and per classroom unit.
The county's assessable base
set at about 1896 million this
year-is expected to pass the
$500 million mark next year.
Most of the increases was due
to a reassessment in the SUBJ
urban area which caused many
property values to jump from
so to more than 100 per cent.
