$l.9O Tax
Rate Seen
AS Council
Ends Study
Public Hearing Set
For 8 p. M. Tomorrow
At Court House
On Proposed Increases

Montgomery County will have a
$1.90 tax rate in the next fiscal
year if tentative agreements
reached by the County Council this
week are enacted into law. The
present rate is $210.
Council members said Tuesday
they are recommending about 81
increases in the $15,593,953 oper-
ating budget recommended by re-
signed County Manager McNayr.
Total increases amount to more
than 100000.
The county managers budget
was based on an estimated assess
able base of 1886 million. The
Council, however, released a re-
vised assessable base figure Tues
day showing the base as some $40
million higher than the McNayr
estimate. This increase, county
officials hope, will enable the
Council to hold to within cent
or two of the 20-cent cut in the
tax rate recommended by the
county manager.
The Council has set a public
hearing on the recommended in
creases for 8 pm. Friday in the
court house. At 5 to 2 vote is re-
quired for the Council to increase
any budget recommendation Of the
county manager. Public hearings
on the proposed increases must be
held before final vote is taken.
One Of the largest of the Coun-
ellis recommended increases in the
operating budget is $4,000 for
salaries of school teachers and
principals. This amount, If APP
proved, will provide entrance
salaries of $4,000 for 1872 new
teachers the county expects to en-
ploy by next September. 1t will
also take care of the increments
Of those already in the school
system. The amount falls short,

Police Ask
Pay Rise
To Match
Washington
County Will Lose
Many More Policemen
If Pay Increase
Is Refused, Police Say

THE Montgomery County Police
Association Tuesday asked the
County Council to increase the pay
schedule of county police in order
to put salaries on par with those
paid in the District of Columbia.
A 1924 yearly increase in start
ing pay of the Montgomery police
forces went into effect the first
of this year.
In addition to the hike in pay
schedules, the Police Association
asked that salaries be supple
mented by a longevity pay in
crease of $500 per year for each
officer, except the chief of police,
following each five-year period of
continuous service completed in a
grade.
The group asked also that the
Council take steps to place the
police force on a five-day week
beginning July 1.
Failure to grant the raises and
reduce the work week, the police
association said, will increase the
designations on the force and
cause qualified men to seek en-
ployment in the District of
Columbia.
The pay schedule proposed by
ifhe police association would grant
across the board raises from Is
to 81 per cent. Present starting
salary for privates is $500. The
association has proposed that this
be jumped to $4,000. In the fourth
step, privates now receive $3,S68.
The proposal, however, would
bring the fourth step salary to
$4,000.
In the matter of pay for SER
geants, the association recon-
mended that the present fourth
step salary of $4,410 be upped to
$4,000.
The group also proposed that the
salary of captains on the force, in
fifth step raises, be jumped from
$5,455 to $4,000. A $1,O45 raise
has been proposed for inspectors
in the top grade.
The Council referred the request
to the Personnel Board for study.
