Presented Is Necessary. Chairman Rufus C. Holman. of the Board of County Commissioners, re fused yesterday to approve a resolu tion submitted by Commissioner W. L. Llghtner providing for the appointment of a committee of local business men to work with the Board in preparing the budget of county expenditures for the coming year. He said he was in favor of the committee named, but that the resolution was not In conformity with the administrative code under which the county business is supposed to be conducted. That requires, he said, that the budget committee be named as a matter of course and no resolution was necessary. Commissioner Hart Joined with Mr. Llghtner in voting for the resolution, which carried over the disapproval ot the chairman. Committeemen Are Named. The following men were named in the resolution: George Lawrence. R. H. Strong, E. B. MacNaughton, Leo Friede, C. W. Hodson and F. Kternan. J. N. Teal was suggested by Mr. Holman and was added to the committee. Mr. Light ner's resolution follows: "Whereas, there is general depression In every line of business throughout the United States, and. In consequence thereof, there are many unemployed, much property is vacant and Incomes greatly reduced, and, whereas, "Because of said business depression, corporations and business bouses have been compelled to lay off many of their employes and to retrench in every pos sible way, and, whereas. "Because of the above situation many of our laboring and business people will be compelled to borrow money to pay their taxes and living expenses, and. whereas. "The Board of Commissioners of Multnomah County, feeling there is a universal demand for a reduction of taxes, has determined, to reduce them to tbe lowest amount consistent with the proper administration of county affairs, and, whereas Economy Held Necessary. "This can only be accomplished by enforcing the most rigid economy in every branch of the county govern ment and by postponing all proposed new work till better times, and, whereas "The Board of County Commission ers desires the help and advice of large taxpayers and men long experienced in business and county affairs to assiat the Board in determining how far re duction of county expenditures may be made without impairing the efficiency of any branch of the county govern ment, now, therefore, be it "Resolved. That George Lawrence, R. H. Strong, E. B. MacNaughton, Leo Friede, C. W. Hodson, F. Kiernan and J. N. Teal be and they are hereby se lected as an advisory committee to meet with the Board of County Com missioners of Multnomah County to consider the county budget for 1915. and to make such suggestions and recommendation! as they may deem fit and proper concerning the same, and also to suggest the amount which, in their opinion, should be raised by taxa tion for all county purposes." The committee will meet in room 200 at the Courthouse at 2 P. M. Friday, November 13, when it will organize by the election of a chairman and secre tary.
