Olds, Wortman & King TAX MEASURE OBSTACLE Appropriations Must Be Cut by One-Third If Voters Refuse , Continuance of Revenue. OLOSE City officials will no sooner emerge from the political campaign than they will be forced Into the arduous task of preparing the 1921 budget of mun ieiapl expenditures. This budget, under the provisions of the city chart er, most be filed with the city auditor not later than the third Monday in November, which this year is on November 15. It is impossible for the city offic ials to work out the budget until the results of the November election are known. The council has referred a measure to the voters reauthorizing the three-mill tax levy which was voted one year ago. Much depends upon the success of this measure, ac cording to the members of the city council, for should it fail, they say, the council will be faced with a task of reducing the service in all de partments by at least one-third. The results of the election will not "be known until November 3, and then only unofficially. Should the vote on the three-mill tax measure be close, it may take until Nov-ember 4 to tabulate the unofficial count. The council usually has from three to four weeks in which to prepare the budget. This year, however, the council will be forced to complete the job in less than 10 days. The estimates prepared by the var ious city departments are already too high, and according to members of the council, many will feel the sharp edre of the pruning knife. - The city commissioners are determ ined to use as much money as can be spared from other departments in purchasing new equipment for the fire bureau, and the apportionment of funds for this purpose will take con siderable time.
