Montgomery Expected
ToAdopt Record Budget

The Montgomery County Coun-
Gil tomorrow night is expected to
adopt a record-breaking 1884
million budget that will require
a IL per cent increase in the
present tax rate Of $2.03 per 500
of assessed valuation.
The new SAILS tax rate would
be the highest on record. but II
would include 6 cents to be used
for partial pay-as-you-go financ-
ing of school construction.
The council in its final budget
deliberations agreed to trim by
5 cents the special 11-cent levy
for school construction.
This was done to hold down
the tax rate increase originally
recommended at Is cents by
County Manager M. L. Reese.
Two cents Of the scent trans
fer would be used to provide
funds for giving the teachers the

full pay raise requested by the
school board. That would be a
maximum $500 per teacher.
The budget includes $17.065.-
$50 for capital construction, some
$780, 400 more than recommend
ed by Mr.. Reese.
The operating budget is ex-
pected to total $46, 1881 ,479, about
$283.000 more than Mr.. Reese
recommended.
The council increased some
Reese budget items recommen-
dations by about $945, 900. 1t
trimmed other items by $685.. 900.
The council is almost certain
to stipulate that any county
funds provided for schools will
be reduced If Gov. McKeldin
signs a bill now before him to
increase State teacher salary
minimums by $400.
