13 BIG RAID MADE OH MECK'S BUDGET Commissioner Daly, Backed by Mr. BigeJow and Mr.Baker, Trim Off $28,138 More. PROTESTS PASS UNHEEDED Head of Public Works Department .1Varns Associates Tliat Action Will Compel Cessation of All ' raving Maintenance. MAYOR ABAATJOIVS 0E-DAY-OFF-L-FIVB PLA.V. Mayor Albea announced yester day an abandonment of the plan adopted by the Council to give firemen one day off in five in place of the present one-day-in-six. The action by the Mayor was taken after a poll of the fire bureau showed a majority vote against the additional time off. Of 276 votes cast, 88 were for the one-day-in-f ive and 180 against it. Six ballots were re turned unmarked.. The vote against the plan was due to the hope of the firemen that they will be able to induce the voters at the next city election to es tablish a two-platoon (two-shift) system. On top of tremendous cuts made heretofore In the estimates of expendi tures for next year in the Public Works department under Commissioner Dieck, the City Council majority yesterday lopped oil another 128,138. The action came in spite of the declaration of Mr, Uieck that the cut means the absolute abandonment of street repairs and street maintenance during the year. The cut was made by Commissioners Daly. Baker and Bigelow, with Mayor Albeo and Commissioner Dieck voting against it. This makes Mr. Dieck's cuts greater in comparison than those in other departments. He first was cut flown by the ""Council eliminating va rious items. Then he was ordered to make a straight 5 per cent cut on what was left. That left his total budget at $338,133. The new arrangement gives him $310,000, or a reduction of $28,138 AVer the budget after it stood as the original 5 per cent cut was made by the Council. "Warning? Given by Mr. Dieck "Go as far as you like," said Mr. Uieck. as tt became apparent that his budget was to be trimmed to the bone. "The more you cut the less we will be able to do next year. Every cut now is blood money. What we do not do next year will mean the shoving of the burden off until the year following. It means abandonment of the plan for a municipal paving repair plant and abandonment of maintenance on sev cral million yards of pavement the city is obligated to repair. ' Mr. Daly having arranged in advance to make a showing was not thwarted by the outlook along this line. - He made a motion providing for the addi tional cut. This was seconded by Com missioner Baker and passed by their votes along with that of Mr. Bigelow. The action will have no effect on the tax levy for next year or the amount to be paid by the taxpayer. The amount cut out will go to reduce the deiicit the city has built up during the present administration. The tax levy will re main at 9 mills, as definitely decided by the Council Monday. This is by far the highest levy Portland has ever had. . Arbitrary Cats Carried Out. .The Council yesterday ' went over all the budgets and fixed them up in ac cordance with the G per cent reduc tions made by each Commissioner. The work wks finished excepting for the Auditor's office. This will be attended to at a meeting of the Council this afternoon at 3 o'clock, after which the revised budget will be ordered pub lished. A public meeting -will be held next week at which all persons wishing to xpeak on any subject pertaining to the budget will be given an opportunity. After that meeting the budget will be adopted. No change was made yesterday in the arrangement for the cutting out of large numbers of employes, includ ing policemen and firemen; part of the atrcet-cleaning crews and crews oper ating the city's incinerator; about 40 street lights; several park employes, the health bulletin issued monthly by the health bureau, and many other Kerns. Mayor Albee announced that he would attempt to keep the police force up to as high strength as possible by calling in several men now assigned to spe ial duty. He will call in one police man now serving as dance inspector another serving as deputy license col lector, another assigned to the City Attorney's office and a fourth assigned to duty in the District Attorney's office. They will be put back in uniform. Their places will have to be filled by others to be provided by the departments in which they serve. We Give S. & H.
