pose of supplying relief employment.
if necessary; and It Is further recom

a budget for the coming year, var
ious other Items be reduced sufflc.
lently to provide for such an emer.
gency fund, without causing an in.
orease In Vie present tax rate.

county budget committee Is receptive
to the Idea of the oreatlon of an
emergency fund, and It Is suggested
that II such a fund Is recommended
by the budget committee, that the
