SWISS OF PAPERS
LONDON. Dee. 2. Bolshevists
have entered tho Norwegian treat ton
at l'clionrud and removed documents
hclomiing to Switzerland, whose in
terests are under" the protection of
'Norway, aceordinir to a Copenhagen
dispatch to the Mail. The Norwegian
minister has protested in vain and
the newspapers of that country are
demanding that Norway break rela
tions with the soviet government.
ASHLAND. Dee, 2. Approximate
ly i:i,()00 will be needed to meet the
running expenses of tbd eitv aside
from oilier revenues, for the ensuing
year. Tho specific schedules of the
budget foot up $-12,84 1.13, implying
a levy of MiJi'i mills to raise that
amount on nn assessed valuation of
2.5i)1.720. of whieh 2,31:1,020 is
rcprexented bv city property ami
4278.700 corporation ownership.
Tho chief item in the budget, cull
ing for n lew of 0.4 mills, is to meet
bond payment mid interest nnd to
create n general bond sinking fund,
this lew yielding $10,"i7.0l. The
bonded indebtedness, outside of
Bancroft obligations, in $201,000. rep
resented bv $18,000 drawing 4 'A per
cent, If 100,000 5 per cent, and $ffl.500 i
''i Iter cent. Sewer bonds to the
extent of $1.(100 will be paid off. anil I
interest ehaiges will bo i:).012.!)0.
leaviiur $2.5 14.0 1 ns ffle nucleus of a
general bond sinking fund which ts
to provide systematically for a reduc
tion of Hie citv debt. For the general
fund 4.02.1 mills will yield $10,431.07.
this being the second important item
111 the budget. Street fund. 13 mills, I
3.300.,j:i. Library fund, 1.25 mills.
$3,230.(15. Publicity and Chautnudua
fund. 5 mills. $1,205.80. Cemetery
fund. .04 mill. $103.07. Sewer fund.
.075 mill. $104.38. Park fund, 1.54
mills. $3,1)01.25. Kire department
land. 1.4 mills. $3.(128.41.
Of the city bonded indebtedness,
$1.8.000 is represented bv original
sewer bonds. $175,000 lilliin watered
slock. $15,000 park extension, and
$.)(j,500 ti'funding obligations, - II
It must not bo inferred that the
$13,000 will meet the city's expendl- i
tares for 11 year. This amount siia-j
ply represents the levy which will j
supplement, other avenues of re
ceipts nnd .expenditures including '
water and light departments, miiniel-'
pal taxes nnd oter sources, the ng-i
gregate being in six figures. The lew ,
proper will bo n trifle more than last !
year, but tho sinking fund provided!
in this year's estimate will more than !
offset the difference. This sinking!
fund is in reality an economic mean-;
are on a moderate scale, and 11s tbej
months go by something tangible isj
realized with which to meet the ma-!
ior obligations. In reality it is a'
war savings stamp plan ns applied,
to municipal finances, and the scheme '
will grow not only in iigures but also
in favor. ,
The school district budget this j
venr will bo in tho neighborhood of
nine mills, conseouentlv this implies j
a levy of about 25.53 mills in behalf ;
of education nnd civil government for
the ensuing annual, period.
