Silverton tax Payers Pro
Jest Increase , Allowed
By Board
SILVERTON. Not. 8 Con
siderable dissatisfaction was ex
pressed by the audience at the
annual school board meeting held
at ths Vn rn a atiriftorinm
wnen the proposed school budget
tor the next fiscal year was up
for final consideration. The pro
posed Increase in the school tax
mlUage, which it was explained
would be some 1 to 3 mills in
crease oyer last year, caused the
dlsatisf action. ...
A number of those from the au
dience who spoke, stressed the
fact that business was slow; that
the lumber Industry upon which
they depended for livelihood was
hard pressed, and that many bad
suffered reduction In wages, and
short time schedules. Yet school
taxes were mounting and teach
ers' salaries were being increased.
"Why?" was the continuous ques
tion asked.
Dr. R. E. Kleinsorge, who was
elected chairman of the meeting,
explained that the schools were
now being run on a cash basis;
that the board was not piling up
debts for the future, but instead
110,000 In bonds were being re
tired this year. This, added to
the 13,000 expenses on the high
school building, he said would ac
count for the extra money needed.
The same number of teachers are.
employed this year as last al
though the enrollment is Over 60
more than at the same time as
last year.
Jn explaining the 160,000
needed for teachers' salaries. Dr.
Klllnsorge: vftali' theVthe ..board
maintained. f schedule ot salaries
ranging from 41.020 to $3,600
per year, and that these were rat
ed on time of senrlce and ability.
He said that in his estimation the
board had cut expenses "to Ihe
bone," that contracts of teachers
already signed could not be alter
ed and that insurance now was
maintained with 100 per cent cov
erage on all buildings. However
the corerage had been secured at
same cost as the former 50
per cent corerage, he said.
Robert Goetx, superintendent
of schools, explained that the $6,
80 la the budget allowance for
school transportation advanced by
the local district would be return
ed from county funds at the end
of the year.

.The .prune pack, for which the
local cannery has gained a wide
reputation, was extremely small

them all at once, causing consid

Season Was Good
Mr. Storruste, is speaking of
cannery conditions, - said that
even during the present condi

be dumped on the market at a
cheap price next spring as - had
been done in previous years, and
that because of the general clean
-up ot surplus fruit which will be
necessary this winter as the pack
is so short, the "outlook for next

doing exceptionally well this au

in a fine condition because of the
abundance of rain since summer.
