Budget Committee Recesses Until Friday Th»* county budget committee, meeting at the county court house in Eugene yesterday, recessed un til Friday, after considering two important items. The committee placed $1,000 in the budget to promote the plan of straightening the Oregon Pacific highway through the southern part of the state. The indigent soldier's fund of $1,500 was raised to $2,500 for 1940 and the fund for unemploy ment was fixed at $8,000 for 1940, the same as 1939. A new county relief budget has been submitted but no action taken. Previously the committee fixed the non-high school district bud get at $60,575, the same as the past year, but the amount to be raised by taxation is less than last year because of a greater sum of cash on hand. The com mittee gave its tentative approv al of the county health service budget, increased from $8,180 to $9,580. The committee also heard a delegation protesting the cut of the county fair fund, but took no action at the time. The taxpayers meeting to con sider the budget will be heard at the county court house in Eugene on October 31 at 1:30 p. m.
