Convention Attended
Taxpayers will note with interest
and very likely with approval the
propoesd county budgtt for the
liscal year of 1952-53 as it has
been drawn by ths budget com
mittee.
Details concerning the
new listing of proposed exp.ndi-
tures in both the gen ral county
fund and the general load fund
are larger than last year.
However, the amount i money
to be rais.d by taxation is just
the same as it was a year ago
because the amount of estimated
receipts is also larger
T.’. r .
ance to b? raised bv taxes on
property is $331,254
this year,
just as it was a year ago. and
that amount is within the six
per cent limit.
Although this county has suf
fered in past years because much
of the timber had be n removed
and that land then did not pay
taxes, the county does not have
a bond d debt, it has more miles
of paved roads than many other
counties which hav n 4 suffered
loss of timb.-r and the budget
levy dot's not exceed th; six por
cent limit.
Not only does the budg t not
exceed the limit this year, but
it has not exceeded that restric
tion for many years in the past.

What we would like to Know
is, why the road was surfaced
only four milts of a nine-mile
stretch. Does it require influen
tial residents along a road for it
to receive just a minimum of at
tention from one’s Court?
Our taxis, we are sure, are
equal to those who are fortunate
to live along a road which the
court knows exists. As a matter
of fact, they have increas 'd con
siderably in the past three years
—about three times.
We would de' ply appreciate
your placing this problem before
the readers of the Vernonia Eagle
in hopes that it will reach the
right people.
We don’t know your paper’s
policy on local issues of this na
ture but will thank you in ad
vance for whatever you can do
