Nov. 22. Indications point to a definite tax increase although officials said the OMPIII »f the gain over the $6.60 per S1.0UU rate in force this year cannot be determined until after the Buurd of Super visors hns adopted its 1939 budget. Supervisor Walter V Thomson, chairman of the county boards finance committee, indicated that the Broomo budget for the com ing year will be at least as large as, IS not larger than, the 1988 expenditure estimate for the year.. Major decrease in estimated revenues will result from the facto that unanticipated gains of approximately 25 per cent in re lief expenditures this year will reduce the balance on hand Jan. 1, 19.19, to about $50,000 as com pared with n balance of about $70,000 with which the town started the cur-rent year. LikewiKc the largest tncreoM* in the 1939 budget is In the re lief department, which will be boosted frnm $lia.s»n this year to ,$144,4,50. a gain of $31,550. This estimate, based oil the ex perience of the first 111 months of 1938, was prepnred bj Town Welfare Commissioner Hubert B. Osterhout uftcr a careful study of probable needs during the cmn ing year. Supervisor Thomson said. Freedom from bonded debt will result in u $20,410 reduction in the municipal indebtedness divi sion of the 1939 budget. Final payment of $20,410 in interest and principal on bonds issued by the town was paid last year. There are no bonds outstanding at the present time. A reduction of $3,000 has been effected in the division of the budget providing for the protec tion of persons and property as the result 6f a new law covering the;, jurisdiction \\of -village police. Protection of persons and prop erty is estimated to cost $805 In 1939 as compared with $3,955 during the current year. Dis bursements for general govern ment costs are set at $36,370, an increase of slightly more Mian $1,000 over this year's figure, which was $35,060. Costs of education, including compensation of attendance offi cers and school directors, are set at $426, the same as for 1938, while disbursements for veter ans relief remain unchanged at $100.
