T t MEDFOID MAIL TRTBUXE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1934. PAGE SEVEN MEET .TOMORROW Th first meeting of the Jackson county budget oommlttee, composed of State Senator George W. Dunn of Ashland, W. J. Freed man of Central Point and A. C. Hubbard of this city, and the members of the county court, la scheduled tomorrow for the pur pose of organizing, electing a chair man and discussing preliminary de tails. Another meeting will be held next week and at regular Intervals until November 1, when the budget, under the law, must be completed. Relief, roads and old age pension funds are scheduled to be the main problems confronting the committee. To meet the requirements of the old age pension, the county court will be required to appropriate between (20,000 and 925,000. It is expected that the coming session of the legis lature will enact measures providing state funds and relieving the coun ties of some of the financial strain. The original law made no provision for providing funds. This left many Oregon counties with a mandate to pay the old age pensions but with no money to pay them. The average old age pension In this county Is be tween $11 and 912. There are about 200 old age pensioners. Size of the relief appropriations depends upon Improvement of labor conditions and federal and state do nations. For five years the road sof Jackson county have received only the barest maintenance, but the traffic has net diminished, and the routes are be ginning to show the effects of wear and tear, bringing complaints alike from autolsts and residents of rural districts. Members of the county court hold that unless repairs are made "the county will lose Its In vestment," and that money can be saved In the long run by Improve ments before the roads are a total loss. Repairs on bridges and culverts are also needed. Most of the rural roads have become "wash boarded." The road fund was badly crippled when the administration cut off the Oregon-California road fund money It amounted to about 972,000 for last year. Western Oregon counties, bene ficiaries of the fund, are now making an effort to secure Its return, with back payments. The general financial affairs of Jackson county are now in good shape, and there is no chaos. The present county court, for more than a year, "has been sitting on the fin ancial lid," and restricted all ex penditures to necessities. Most ol the county office budgets submitted to date run the same as last year There are some Items calling for the raising of salaries, but these are largely offset by reductions. What Increases sought are modest. County officials predict that the compiling of the 1934 budget will not be the nerve-wracking affairs of recent years. A public hearing on the budget, In accordance with the law, will be called for early in November.
