tons"
Democrats Take Stand
Drexel A. Sprecher. Demo
cratic precinct chairman from
the 10Th (Potomac) District, pre-.
scented the Council with a letter
approved by 80 of the 81 Demo
cratic precinct chairmen, urging
restoration of the Managers
cuts. Eighteen precinct chair
men disapproved of the letter,
six had no comment, and IA were
unavailable. The four County
Councilmen who are precinct
chairmen were not polled.
Mr.. Sprecher called the budget
cuts "a political issue" and
urged the Council to restrain the
Manager from making a hero
of himself every year."
The chairmen's letter sug.
gested the Council find items else
where in the budget to reduce or
eliminate. If not all of the
need can be met in this way, ade.
quate standards for the education
of our children must be main
tanned even If it means higher
tax rate" the letter states.
The only organization that
even leaned slightly toward the
Managers recommendations was
the Allied Civic Group which
proposed a SGT million middle
of the road" budget which spokes-
man Raymond E. Mahaffey said
would require a modest" tax in
crease.
Mr.. Mahaffey said ACC op-
poses "leapfrogging" teachers
salaries each year "just enough
to outbid the competing counties
for the services of available
teachers" ACC proposed a 8
per cent pay hike for teachers.
Mr.. Reese wants a per cent in
crease. The School Board asked
for a new, higher scale.
Manager Urges Economy
Manager Reese told the hear
ing his recommendation was
based on meeting the needs of
the county "as adequately as
available finances will permit"
while being economical. He de-
fined economy as IAN effort to
obtain the maximum value for
each dollar to be expended"
Mr.. Reese said the future will
create Staggering demands" on
the county government. "Unless
we limit ourselves to the essen.
tials In all phases of government
and adhere to sound fiscal poll
cies in the financing of our gud-
gets from year to year we will
not be in a position to meet and
finance these future needs as
they arise"
The Manager warned that the
county will be within lbs per
cent OF its debt limit If all au-
thorized bonds are issued during
the coming fiscal year. The
county is permitted to float
bonds worth up to 10 per cent of
the assessable base.
Mr.. Reese urged the Board of
Education, citizens, and the
county government, to work for
increased state education stand
ards so the county would receive
more State aid.
