Editor anti Publisher Office Phone 1— Home Phone 901 THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1932 problems left by tax board. The feeling of apprehension!, indecision 'and uncertainty that* existed while the county board of tax adjustment was in session, is over. The board has made its decisions known. Officials of various ipunicipalities now knaw how much Imoney they may count upon coming into their treasuries next year, with some degree of probability. Os course there is a slight possibility that some of the levies as determined by the tax board may prove unsatisfactory to some taxpayers, and they might cause some of t hese levies to be carried to the state board ot tax commission fur .review. Outside of that possibility, the levies are established, the school teachers and hack drivers are*assured that their contracts are good, if there ever was any doubt as to the validity of these contracts. Another thing which stands out is that the board of tax adjustment did not, and could hot,, tell the officials of the municipalities how to spend the money after the board" had revised the levies. Os jeourse the board did lake certain basic figures for calculating reductions, and make recommendations, but the board left many problems to be solved. One of these is how touch school will there be in this township next year? The trustee of this township, in his budget, asked for $18,960 for pay Os school teachers, and $12,550 for the upkeep of the schools and transport of children. . In the budget of the trusted, the bank balance for July Ist for the tuition fund. 'was $B,l-11.1$. Taxes (<> be collected in December will be approximately $8,500, making n total of $1’6,609 available ' for paying teachers, this school year. Teachers’ salaries as contracted will amount t<> SjK.bbp. So it can readily be seen that in May, T. 33. there Will be no balance in the tuition fund for m h •! next year. In Julie the township will receive approximately, if till taxes are paid, $6,00V for the pay of school teachers and another $6,000 next December, niaking • .total of 612,000 for the school term of 1933-34 as compared to the §1 8,980 amount contracted for this year. Figures for the special school fund are harder to derive, the items coniprising this fund being more flexible. But the budget as published stated that in the special school fund there was a bank balance, of $6,302. The amount of taxes from the December distribution which will be credited to the fund will be approximately $4'juo. making a total of 610,800 available for the fund. From the budget, the amount of unexpended appropriation cannot be determined as this amount was made equal to the bank, balance of July 1, 1932. But taking $6,000 as the amount of the unexpended appropriation which is probably high, there will be left a balance of $4,500 in. the fund at the end of the year. Supposing that $4,500 will be spent from Jan. 1. 1933 to the end of the school term, If will take no great amount of calculating to see there will be no balance left in the fund in May. 1933., The amount of $4,500 is probably

; very low and is figured on the basis [of $2,800 for transportation of children, S6OO for janitors, $350 for } light and power, $l6O for insurance 1 and S4OO for fuel, making a total of $4,300. This amount only includes * .essentials and is figured as a great: 1 reduction from the original budget. ! It does ?pot include money for school i and janitor supplies, and repairs. I The amount of money coining into ; the fund from taxes in 1933 figured i on the new levy amounts to $9,000 if everyone pays his taxes, and must last the school until May, 1934. It is not difficult to see that teachers must take a reduction in salaries [lor the school year of 1933 and 1934, iit there are to be many months of . i school, or take a voluntary reduc-■ | tion now or after Jan. 1, 1933 and \ thus make the sum available for pay of teachers last longer. In any case some teachers must be dropped after the end of this school ’ i Schoo) bus routes probably will have to be re-advertised at the end !of the school year, in hope tha, bids will be made at a figure 2o per cent (lower than the present contracts ! which expire this coining spring. | There probably will be little or no [basketball next fall and there is a l greater probability that there will be only five Or six months of school next year. Os course the tax adjustment [ board was greatly intluenced by the Indiana Taxpayers Union which advocates the next legislature pass an inJcome tax u a sales tax and other tax‘es cm intangible property to make up the .deficit that the board made in school budgets. i Even it some of these new means lof taxation were made effective by j the next legislature, it is very doubt- . ful if they will produce enough | revenue to overcome the deficit: The problem still remains one for [ the Trustee and school teachers to solve. MAIN STREET WHITTLINGS j_■ . _ ■ ; Mrs. A. E. Coy was in town Sat- • urday, the first time since Octobei bust year, she said. ,She. brought the editor and wife some cider. We hope she doesn’t wait another year before paying another visit to Syracuse’ One thing every taxpayer ’ must remember when he goes to the polls next month is that Garner,-, candidate for vice president on the Democratic bring-back-prosperity ticket is the same Garner who engineered the bill in Congress which would have built an $89,000 post office in Syracuse. Everyone who wants to pay tax es to binld such a necessary edifice and pay the army of janitors to take care of it, make his mark in the circle which will elect Garner to the office w here he can help ’em all to spend and spend and spend. Be sure to vote for such extravagance, all ye residents of this community where school is too expensive a luxury. This Woman Lost 45 Pounds of Fat L.. .
