or three citizens took part In the discussion, Mr. Tracy Is not with the Chamber of Commerce this year, however, and no one has been chosen to fill his place. Although the State tax law provides that the budget shall be published ten days In advance of the public hearing, .the present Administration publishes the annual appropriation ordinance, a very condensed summary of the real budget. No citizen would be able to get detailed Information from the general Items In the appropriation ordinance. Mr-Bryson s&ld he belleves .no one has asked to see the budgets open, to public inspection for the reason that most people ere busy trying to figure out bow to make their own budgets Ot their incomes. ‘Star Shells’ May Oust Searchlight WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.—Extensive experiment* to develop the use of “star shells" as a substitute for searchlights in searching out enemy craft are- being conducted by the Navy department with what home officers describe as considerable success.
