Mrs. r. P. Blair, a tribute t.
the Bartram family, after which

lion. some $2.5 million above
current appropriations. The
county was asked to provide
about $3.50. 900 of this increase.
With only about 100000 for
total county increases. chances
are that the school board viii be
cut sharply-as much as a mil
lion dollars. Much Of this cut
would have to- be made in in
structional services which ac-
counts for rs per cent of the
budget request.
County payroll increases for
increment raises for employees in
the past have amounted to about
100000 a year.
Mr.. Reese last Wednesday ap-
peared before the County Police
Association which had hoped for
salary increases to bring them in
line with Metropolitan police
salaries.
At that time he told the police
he was providing them a small
increase-"enough to sweeten
your TOOTH" He also said he was
working on a plan by which over
two-year period he would cut
their work week from 48 to "A,
and then 40 hours.
Research Office
Mr.. Reese since he came into
Office has spoken frequently of a
research and public information
Office and most observers feel
such division probably will be
included in his budget recon-
mendations.
Preparations of the budget
have been shrouded in secrecy
and no briefing has yet been
given the press.
One councilman on learning
indirectly of the proposal to re-
tain the present tax rate said
'it sounds good, but we'll have
to decide whether it will work
when we get a look at the
budget"
Other county residents fear
that sharp trimming this year
may mean bigger tax increases
during the next three years of
the new Democratic councils
reign.
The windfall the county will
get as its share OF the new with
holding plan for collection of
State income taxes will be of no
benefit this year.
