f 1 1 :v. i i County Road Surfacing On Ballot GRANTS PASS, March 19 (fP) Josephine county taxpayers will be asked at the May 17 primary election to vote a special six mill levy for the surfacing of county roads. This levy, said County Com missioner L. M. Mitchell today, will raise about $66,000 for the purpose. The levy will be of a serial nature, and if voted would be levied each year for three years. The budget committee, in an all-day session with the county court yesterday, foresaw that it will be able to balance the 1946 47 budget within the 6 per cent limitation in spite of skyrocket ing costs, and made five recom mendations to the court, of which the serial levy was the first. The other four recommenda tions are: Fine quarters outside the courthouse for the county health unit and the welfare of fice to make additional filing and work space for the county clerk's office and the assessor's office: install, on arrival, photo graphic copying equipment to record pictorially the hundreds of deeds wmch tne clerk and assessor offices must now copy bv typewriter: arrange for a monthly audit of all county de partment finances to facilitate checks on the status of the va rious departments; increase the price of timber sold by the county from 52.25 to $3.50 per thousand feet for fir, from $5.25 to $6.25 on pine, from S6.50 to $7.50 on sugar pine and from $8 to $12 on white cedar.
