t-Tae Sfcrieamcm. fflem. Oregon. Wednesday. May 31. id5Z Election Effects on City Budget IWill Be Given Study Tonight Effect of the recent city election on Salem's municipal budget for the coming year will be consider ed tonight by the citizens' budget committee and City Council. The committee will organize for the annual budgetmaking task at a 7:36 pan. meeting in City Hall. Between now and July 1, start of the ciy s fiscal year, the commit tee will study City Manager J. L. Tranzen's budget and suggested re iViiions. conduct hearings and draft a finished budget subject to final action by the Council. Committee members have had Franzen's early budget draft for several weeks, but this is due for some immediate changes in the light of the city voters' decisions on tax and bond issues proposed at the election last Friday. Defeat of a proposed special an nual millage tax to pay for street lighting will mean lighting cost of about $54,000 will have to be paid from regular budget funds, as in the past. This apparently will elim inate some street resurfacing which the city manager had plan ned if the tax carried. On the other hand, approval of a one-mill park and recreation an nual tajc will mean extra money for general park improvements as well as for the proposed Bush's Pasture irrigation and the peren nial playgrounds program financed jointly by city and school district. wonderful miles in six ford months" A E Hoffman, San Lorenzo, Cafif.t writes, "My Nash Rambler Station Wagon covered 34,000 miles in six hard months, averaging better than 25 miles to the gallon, carrying load up to 750 pounds ell over my territory." Zoning Board Votes Against Added Floor Salem Planning and Zoning Commission Tuesday night recom mended against a proposed ex pansion of the V. J. Osko office building at 1465 N. Capitol St. Osko sought permission to add a second story, for rental pur poses, under procedure similar to the special business zoning he had obtained a year ago for establishing the insurance build ing in a residential area. A neighboring property owner, George Weller, 945 Shipping SU protested last night on grounds of added traffic congestion and possible deterioriation of residen tial property values. The City Council has the final say in zoning petitions. A proposed business develop ment of L. H. Periman property on the n.orth side of Pine Street near the Pacific Highway figured in a zone change which the com missioners tabled pending more information. A garage business is contemplated there. Approval was recommended to the Council for special business zoning which would permit Giles Smith to erect a two-store busi ness building on the south side of Center Street near North Capitol. Tentative approval, pending a June 17 public hearing, was grant ed Miss Mildred Christenson for an apartment zone on Judson Street, three blocks west of South Commercial. She said she would erect a duplex there. Announcement was made that Mayor Alfred Loucks appointed Realtors George Grabenhorst Sr. and James B. Young as consult ants to work with the zoners' committee now in the process of revising the entire city zoning code.

The vote reached 1,172 against the extra levy to 172 for it, in a compilation of 26 of the 63 dis tricts. Mrs. Agnes Booth, county school superintendent, said that "the trend looks as if the budget is de feated, so each district will hold its own election."

Each district Is entitled to a proportionate share of the tax levy which is within the 6 per cent increase limitation.
