Total estimated expenditures is $295,851.61. against $287,530.75 for 1954-5.1. and total es timated receipts of $110 S.ti.61, against $287,530.75 for 1951-55, and total estimated receipts $110,826.25. compared to $127,001.00 for 1954-5: leaving $155,025.36 necessary to balance the budget. This is less than the $160,529.7 needed in 1951-55 to balance the budget, but the figure estimated taxes that will not be collected during the fiscal year 195:-56 is $22,478.63, compared to $13,000.00 for the current year. This higher estimate of taxes thai will pron- "ably not be collected is explained in a letter from the district s uudi 'tor, Bernard C. Davis of Salem, 'which notes loss to the district through discounts, adjustments lo the rolls and. uncollected taxes for the year, and recommends Ihe higher estimated for anticipated lax delinquencies. " A figure of $179,072,00 Is set for cost of instruction for 1955-56. high er than the $170,592.00 for 1954-55 because of normal Increments, and including salary for ah addi tional teacher who may or may not be needed, depending on fall enrollment. Plant operation is up slightly, maintenance and repairs down several hundred dollars. Fixed charges are $12,340.23 compared to last year's $11,969.51, owing lo insurance due on steam boiler. The emercency fund was raised from $5,000 lo $6,000 fcir 1955-5'!. Bonds and interest are down this year from $38,977.50 lo S30.700 00 to offset n larger budget for inter est in 1954-55 when interest was due before a lax turn-over. The ritio will not remain at that level in succeeding years, 4 however, llartman pointed out. A figure of $1,400 has been add ed to the receinls representing in terest on serial lew. The estimat ed cash balnnee is $15 000. against $7 500 for 1954-55 which favorably affects the estimated tolal re ceipts p"d cash balance figure of $140,826.25. A figure of $330 is budgeled for special service, representing Ihe district's share toward salary for a trained psychiatrist to work with all schools in the area if Ihe plan becomes effective. Mlllage increase for the ensuing fiscal year is estimated to in crease about seven-tenths of a per cent, Harlman reports. The dis trict's valuation, since consolida tion with Onal City and Plainview. Is $4,401,830, an increase of about $40,000 over last year.

The 21 American cars, which were equipped with automatic transmission and certified absolutely stock by American Automobile Association, averaged an im pressive 21.5 miles per gallon. This was achieved even though the average horse power increase of 1955 over 1954 models was 17.6 per cent an average increase of 26.7 horsepower. The route chosen by AAA represented every road condition a motorist would normally experience in a year. Kaeh con testant ran at maximum legal speed to meet time requirements. He adhered to normal driving rules and t raf f ic condi tions; to see that this was accomplished, he had at his side an official AAA observer. Each cor, competing against others in its price class, was in top condition properly fueled with Mobilgas and lubricated with Mobiloil. Again, the Mobilgas Economy Hun proves the mileage erformance possible when good cars, good drivers, and good petroleum products work together. A reg ular stop at the Flying Red Horse sign for Mobilgas helps you to obtain "par" mile age on any course you run. 27 t Monday, March 21, 1955 Charge Faced was held overnight in city jail in lieu of $250 bail, Olher motorists cited by police over the weekend: - Thomas II.
