LOWER BUDGET CUTS GARBAGE, ASH SCHEDULE Collections to Be Made Only Once a Week During Next Year. Tilts U the fourth of five stories show* In* the effect of th, reduced 1933 city budget on the individual citizen. BY JAMES A. CARVIN' Two week's accumulation of garbage will remain in back yards next year if father or the boys forget to have the container ready for the once-a-week refuse collection, which the city will make. After tax relief organizations slashed $63,000 from the 1933 appropriation request of the sanitary board, only sufficient funds remain for one garbage collection a week instead of two, Maurice E. Tennant, member of the sanitary board, said today. Collection of ashes this winter only will be made once a week, he said. “In making a saving of 70 cents a family next year in the sanitary district budget, it is necessary for the city to reduce garbage, ash and refuse collections “one-half by operating on a once a week schedule," Tennant asserted. New Market Is Created “Whether the 70-cent saving works for the benefit of the people remains to be seen. Thcro is one item of expense, which in the case of numerous families, will more than wipe out any savings in taxes. “Under the reduced schedule of collections, personal pride, the neighbors or the board of health will require purchase of at least one additional garbage container because the one now in use probably is not large enough to hold a sevenday garbage accumulation of the average family. "At a conservative estimate of $2 as the cost of anew garbage container, and perhaps $1 for another ash can, each family immediately is put to an expense of $2.30 beyond the saving in taxes.” Tennant exhibited an advertising letter received from a local store quoting prices on garbage and ash containers. “This may a coincidence, or it may mean that a clever sales manager realizes the new market which has been created," he remarked. Need Replaced Equipment. “Despite the fact that the sanitary district had no appropriation for the purchase of new equipment during 1932, and only had $12,000 in 1931, our request for new equipment was cut to $4,800, sufficient to buy three trailers. “Equipment of the sanitary district is in need of replacement, and it will be necessary to repair and patch freel yto keep the wheels turning netx year," Tennant said. The sanitary district requested SIO,OOO for maintenance of equipment in 1933, but the appropriation i was reduced to SB,OOO, according to the proposed budget now awaiting city council action. “It will require a large part of our SB,OOO appropriation to keep the equipment moving, leaving only a small sum with which to make minor repairs which would forestall costly breakdowns,” Tennant stated. Doubts Benefit to Public Possibility of discharging a number of employes how engaged in garbage collection was suggested by Tennant in view of the reduced collection schedule. “If these men, who have no means o f livelihood but their labor, are out of work, county, city and charitable relief organizations will be forced to support them,” Tennant said. “The 70-cent saving a family will be expended several times by the increased cost of poor relief. ‘Tf it becomes necessary for the city to abandon its garbage ash and sewage disposal service, the public will realize acutely the cost of purchasing this service from private sources. "No citizen could expect to have this work done for less than sl2; a year, yet the city on its present schedule does it at a cost of about $3.43 yearly a family. "I believe that the functions of government should not be curtailed unless the individual citizen actually benefits, and it is doubtful if the saving made in the sanitary district in 1933 will prove of benefit to the general public. SENATORS LOSE PLUM No Oil, No Gas, No Service, Just Parking in New Garage. By Scripps-Hotcard Xetcspaprr Alliance > WASHINGTON. Sept. 15.—Sena- j tors accustomed to the free tonsorial service and stationery supplies that are among the small but much appreciated perquisijes of | senatorial membership doubtless will experience pangs of disappointment at the lack of free service in connection with the Capitol garage, just completed. Hidden beneath the imposing new plaza which stretches from the Union depot to the senate office building, the garage provides underground parking space for 274 cars. Parking privileges, however, will \ be all that the members of the sen- ' ate will get in the structure. No gas, no oil, no service of cars—just storage room and that's all, according to the office of the supervising architect of the capitol.
