Study the Budgets
In the tioxt issue of ihe Gazette Times will
pprar Ihe county budget and the School District
No. 1 budget It will be well worth the taxpay
er'! time to sit down and study those budgets
closely. Particularly is this so vith the county
budget, which calls for a large increase over the
six per cent limitation.
The court and budget committee have tried
to meet demands placed upon the court for in
creased salaries and wages cf county employees,
increased road costs, and the condition that has
arisen relative to the financing of the county
hospital. Current levies are short of needs more
than $161,000, which is the sum the voters will
be asked to approve at a special election June 17.
Of this amount the hospital will require nearly
one-hall
It should be understood that the vote is on the
budget in its entirety and not on separate items.
It would require separate elections to vote by
item, calling for the amount required in each
case. Proponents of the hospital have asked that
the $80,000 item be included in this year's bud
get and it is the general feeling that the budget
as a whole will be approved. Approval will wcrk
more or less of a hardship on some taxpayers
3 YEARS AOT
but taking a long-range view of the situation
it appears less expensive than to obtain the
funds elsewhere or to go on year in and year out
sending our sick and injured to outside hos
pitals-
Regardless of whatever arguments or view
points finding expression in these columns, the
advisable thing to do is study the budgets and
find out for yourself what the money is sought for.
Vocation Time Here
Vacation time is at hand and this raises the
question of where to go and how to get there.
There are advertisements aplenty in the larger
newspapers and the national magazines, and we
think from what we have seen that Oregon and
the northwest abound in scenic attractions to a
far greater extent than other regions widely ad
vertised.
First of all, if one has not seen Oregon there
is no better way to spend a fortnight or a month
than riding about over the state enjoying the
magnificence of scenery brought to view through
a system of well located highways. Be it coast,
valley, desert or mountains, Oregon has all of it
in constantly changing panorama, combined
with a variety of climatic conditions to make
travel a joy.
