BEND MILLAGE WILL BE LESS FORNEXTYEAR 93.59 IS THE TOTAL FOR - THREEFOLD LEVY CITY EXCEEDS LIMIT Municipul Kxpense Estimute Only One Lower Than That of Present Year, However County Levy of 2i2,:iXI.20 Is Adopted. RENO'S MILLAGE FOR THLS YEAR AND NEXT 1321 1922 State and county.. 24. 20 26.19 lty 40.20 35.10 School District ....29.40 32.30 Total 93.80 93.59 The millage which Bend property owners will pay for the threefold pur pose of making up state and county, city, and school district expenses for the coming year, will be slightly less than that in effect this year. Assessor August A. Anderson stated this morn ing after receiving the levies voted by the county commissioners and by the directors of school district No. 1 The decrease Is the result of the low ering of the city budget, which, how ever. Is the only one of the three municipal corporations which Is not within the six per cent statutory lim itation. County Levy Adopted The county levy, adopted yesterday afternoon for state and county par poses, totals $242,381.20, and is made up of the following Items: state tax, $102,107.78; county general fund, $72,177.68; special road fund, $9,156.24; bond Biterest, $9, 875; market roads, $15,500; county school library, $300; high school tui tion, $2,500; county school fund, $27,200; county library, $,3,564.50. The item for high school tuition does not enter into the computation of the millage rate. Worked out to hundredths, the millage on individual Items may fre quently not conform exactly to the amount listed for the fund In ques tion, and slight changes in the orig inal figures, for the most part down ward, were made, resulting in an ac tual total levy of $242,303.76. SUGGESTIONS FOR EMPLOYMENT GIVEN Washington Conference Asks Lettinfj Or All Possible Contracts For Public Works. SEATTLE, Dec. 20. Governor Hart's unemployment conference sug gested the following means of giving employment to 50,000 jobless in Washington: letting of all city, coun ty, and state project contracts for which founds are available; a peti tion to congress to let all federal work in the state; a recommendation that state citizens be considered ahead of "floaters;" and preference of whites over orientals. The conference adjourned last night. 3 DEATHS RESULT OF SEATTLE SNOW SEATTLE, Dec. 20. Two boys and a man are dead here as the re sult of snow accidents in this city last night. The boys' sled ss truck a pole, and an automobile hit an old man, causing fatal injuries. (Baker Herald.) Lest we forget, Baker county should have n county agent and a county fair. By tho way, we wonder if Portland Is willing to stund part of the tux levy necessary. A fine agricultural fair III Baker would greatly stimulate production of prod ucts for the railroad to haul to Port land to teed and clotho the 1925 com mittee. This would also help the railroads supply the ships with car go, the ships that make It essential that Portland be granted a lower freight rate so the railroads can keep these beautiful vessels In the harbor where they can be gazed upon with pride. . .- "-.- . v I - ' "1925?'
