ON CITY BUDGET LACK OF SUPPORT! 3
Much Intoit'ttt In manifested by

'tho' Controversy (but arose over the
proposed' city budget for next year
when the citizens' budget commit
le.e!aJtf'lrturday night at Its flnnl
session 'in pruning down the bud
got submitted' to Its membors by
the city officials, amounting to
157, TGI!, pruned from tho various
department estlinatcM, 130,427.41.
which recommendation If adopted
by the city council will mako the
levy 2 mills less than last year
Instead of making an Increase of
'one and seven-tenths mills: and .'n
so doing lopped off $27,000 from
the city water department cstl-
. mates over the ntrenuous upposl
Lion of that department,

bers are A. C. Hubbard, chairman;
Hamilton ration, O. O, .A lend or
fcr, Vernon Vawter, John 8. Orth,
ICtiKono Thorndyko, W. W, Walker
and J. C. Barnes.
.. Tho final disposition of the mat
ter Is up to tho city council.
According to luw tho budget ih
now coimtltutod must be advertised
twice; tho first time 20 days be
fore tho date set for the final pub'
He bearing at which anyone can
appear and protest tho budget or
ttny feature of It, and the second
time 10 days before the hearing'
City Recorder M. U Alford has
Set the dato for this public hear
ing as Tuesday nljjht, November
Ji. and will publish the first ad
ortisemcnt tomorrow. Then inr
mediately after tho public meet
Jok that night the council will pns
te budget ordinance after making
any changes It sees fit.
. As to whother tho city council
limy mako minor or big changes,
or. adopt tho budget as recom
mended by the cltlzons' budget
committee is problematical nt this
stage, but general opinion seems
(o prevail that the couneilmanic
body may make extensive changes,
even against tho wIhIich of Mayor
Pipes, who Is In thorough accord
with tho budget commlttec'H find
ings. One thing Is certain, and that
Is that tho city water commission;
will make a determined fight be
fore 'the city.counrH to havo ro-j
stored the $27,000 lopped off from j
lis original estimates. ., . !
. ..In roply to the statement pub
lished yostcrday by President K.
C. OaddU of tho wator commis
sion that the budget committee's
action In recommending that the
water department estimates bo re
duced $27,000 "that action. If ul
lowed to stand will cut off SiM,
000 required for paying off and re
tiring wator bonds In occurdancc
with city requirements as provided
,n tho bond schedule." Mayor
Pipes' and the budget committer
declare that this statement Is not
correct. .
' They amjert that In the pruning
process this sinking fund was not
tom-hod and that 124. Oou was
lowcd for that purpose, instead nf
4 ho $27,000 the water depurtment
nsked for.
p. Tito point out thht the only
Items sliced off from the water de
partment estimates were $1 !.
for purchase of real estute on thj
Water shod. 114.000 for a new res-1
ervolr aim $2,000 for repairs to j
tho old pipe line, In all amount
ing to $27,000.
In reply to this denial President
Clnddla says the water commission
Is obligated to spend Kll.noo fnr
tho real estate Item, which amount
If It Is not retained In the bud
get must bo duducted from the
fund for retirement of water
bonds.
Holh the budget committee and
President tladdls pointed out that
.the budget committee action Is
merely n recommendation to the
city council and tbht flnul notion
On the matter Is up to the city
council.
Chairman ,1. J. tluchtcr of the
city council fire eommlttee put up
an unsuccessful fight at lust Tues
day night's meeting before the
Imdget committee voted Its final
recommendation action, to have
ro stored ns naeceslttes some of the
fire department items lopped off
of the original estimate for th.it
.department. Me and other mem
bers of tlmt committee are dH
satisfied with the cltiiens budget
committee nctlon, ns are also mem
bers of various other council com
mittees. Xs to whether the council heeds
the recommendation of the budget
committee in full or only In part
remains to be developed at the
final night of passing the ord
inance, but tho matter may crop
nut In some way prior thereto at
the next regular meeting of the
city council, next Tuesday night.
To tho Keillor:
Yesterday ufternoon tho Med
font fiKitlmll t . u-ii iti.fx.in.l
by i-Jugenc In a game that was I
hard for the local football fun
to digest. Our boys played bard
and put up a good gamu for their
size and Inexperience and deserve
lots of credit for their ability to
hold tho ICugeno veterans as well
as they did. However, our Mod
ford football fans, particularly
thuso In tho high school student
body, do not deserve much credit
for tho support they gave their
team. The yells were few and far
between and Judging from the vol
umo most of tho rooters refrained
from joining In. The girls of Med-
ford high school, that Is somo of
them, and n few business men
did most of the yelling for thy
home team.
In tho past tho "school spirit"
and support given the Mcdford
team has been wonderful and
why not? With u championship
team every year, everyone was
proud to cheer for the homo team.
Now that wo havo u team that
Is young and Inexperienced and
has suffered reverses all through
the season. It is up to every local
football fan in Medford" to rally
to the support of the boys and
Couch Hngan and give them tin;
best wo have. Anybody can cheer
for a winning team but it takes a
rea I sport to su pport a losl ng
team! Which kind of sports have
wo in Medford?
