IMstlhaBatlasiaMsaiHaaaa City Manager Question Next on Monday Forum "Build the Basin," public serv ice forum presented by the Herald and News and KFLW on Monday evenings, takes a holiday this week. The combination last week of elec tion excitement nnd vacations in the Herald and News news room. where the program Is organized. added up to tins wecx s cancellation Putting together a "Build the B.isln" program requires several School Budget Voting Today Voters or the Klamath County Srhnnl district are balloting today on the districts' 1252-63 budget which totals 11,370,747.04. Bnllollng started at 2 p.m. stand ard time and will continue- imtll 8 p.m. 13 to 9 p.m. daylight timet in all elementary schoolhouses of the district. The vote Is on tho question of nnnroving the budget as published and upon levying- the property tax to rnlse the amount in excess ot the sum the school district mny rnlse bv taxation without spccUlc vote. Thnt amount is 1334,628.19. City elementary and high school budgets for the coming fiscal year were approved by voters of the city districts last week, but the bnllollng wns considerably heavier than Is iisiml for school elections traditionally poorly, attended nnd the margin of passage wns slight. In fact, some protest in town has arisen over the conduct of the cttytschool elections In that no method of ascertaining the qunli flcntlons of persons who enme to vote wns In evidence. There has bean tnlk of a court contest of the election on ground thnt lt wns not conducted according to law. All persons who nro registered voters nnd who live within the district are eligible to vote. In theory, a public hearing on the county school budget is scheduled for 2 p.m. (standard time) at 3ach polling place, - - s 7: " v- .vw days and the news room crew de cided a holiday would be better than offering a hastily thrown to gether program tonight. A "Build Uie Basin" now being arranged for next Monday should be one of the most Interesting and timely forums yet presented in the scries. The question will be: "Should Klamath FnUs now switch to the cltv manager form of ad ministration?" This question was strongly point ed up in Friday's election. A city ballot measure calling for the in creasing of Uie mayor's salary to SjOO a month was overwhelmingly celcated. Ana the most populnr ar gument heard against the measure was: "Wo need a .qualified city mnnaaer. not a full-time mavor." Mayor Bob Thompson himself op posed the $500 mayor plan and is a champion of the city manager form of government. The mayor was the first person Invited to be a member of next Monday's panel and he quickly ac cepted. A great deal of enre will be ex ercised In orgnntzlng Uie pnnel so Uint as nearly as possible, all an gles of the important question may be adequately explored.
