I uuuni jlll btr TO IKE SLICE Budget Will not be Prepared Until Middle of De- ; cember The county court Is now colng over the budget estimates of va rious county officials preparatory to making up the 1930 budget which must be done In Decern ber. Starting with the 1929 budget as a basis, the estimates will be made with due considera tion to needs of : the county for the - ensuing year. Last year's total . tax was 8388.272.35 for county purposes, including 385,- 000 for bond redemption. While the court Is not far enough along with Its work to give out any In formation the expectation la that the new budget will be about the same as last year, possibly a lit tie less. . The former budget committee which consisted - of George Keech, George W. Hubbs, and T. B.I Jones in addition to the members of the county court, will nrobablv he called on to serve again this year. Controversial matters which the ' budget committee will - con sider are county agent's office. and . the appropriation for coun ty health work. v Hearings hare been i held, regarding - hiring a county agent, with, deputations appearing for and against the creation of this office. The cost was estimated around 24400 to the county If the agent should be appointed. While the court has not an nounced Its decision. Its past at titude has been adverse to estab lishing the ! office. The county health appropriation-, will ' stand as ' last -year' 'unless the"conf should ' kfdt down to" 8806ft id meet the Salem city allowance. No Increases for road work are In sight as the current funds are adequate to take care of the county's read program. The item which may take a boost is that for transportation of high school pupils. This w-a a new Item last year and 832,300 was allowed. More may be required ror next year. While .the court is bea-lnnlnc preliminary work on the budget, the meeting of the budget com mittee is not expected to be held until after the session of eonntr Judges in Portland the 11th and xzm or .uecemoer. . . 4 VETERAN MEBCU HT SILVERTON.

The difference was accounted for. by the fact that In compiling the fig ures for 1928 the certificates ot Indebtedness of irrigation dis tricts of the state, representing interest advances to such dis tricts, were considered as an off set to Oregon district interest bonds issued against such certifi cates. As the result ot a law enacted In 1929 authorizing the state to waive its claims against irriga tion districts whose bond Interest obligatons were guaranteed by the state for five yean under author lty of the state constitution, the certificates no longer are consid ered I an offsetting asset against state! bonds Issued in behalf of the districts In . the aggregate amount of. 32.172.750.
