2 Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon, Friday, May 2, 1947 Wobdburn School District Figures Costs for Year Woodburn Estimated expenditures for the new Woodburn school district for the year 1947-1948 have been set at $111,960 by the school board and budget committee. Receipts for the year -?were estimated $76,600, taxes that would be delinquent at $1, 000 leaving the amount to be raised by taxation to balance the budget at $33,360. Of this estimated lax $20, 279.87 would be within the six percent limitation. A total of $13,080.13 would be over this limit requiring a special authori zation vote at the budget meet ing, according to Frank Proctor, clerk. Last year the old Wood- burn district levy was $15,246.02 over the six per cent limitation Due to increased valuation through the addition of new dis tricts by consolidation and In creases in property values it is estimated that the 1947-1948 school levy will be a mill less than the 20.8 mills that was in effect last year. Teachers salaries under the proposed budget amount to $61 200, an increase resulting from the minimum salary law. Also to be considered in the increas ed expenditures is the addition of three new districts to the area, resulting in a 28 per cent In crease in attendance, salaries of teachers and operation of schools. This is largely offset by the greater valuation of the district. Other items in the increased expenditures are a proposed con version of healing plants to oil at the high school and Lincoln grade school and the possible purchase of a new school bus. Included in the estimated re ceipts are items of $31,000 ex pected from the basic school fund and $10,000 from the equalization fund. Public hearing on the budget will be May 29 at 7:30 p.m. at the Lincoln grade school. Esti mates were prepared by the school board members. O. L. Withers, Dean Bishoprick and W. Earl Dunn and members of the citizens' committee, Fred Evenden, L. H. Paulson and Roy Kuns.
