During the months of April, May and June, the city’s business is conducted and bills are paid out of money secured from lo- cal banks on short term notes. The interest on this money is a big item. It has been suggested that ta be made due at the opening of the fiscal year with bills made out in two accounts, one half payable at once and the other half at the ex- piration of six months. It was alse suggested that tax on merchandise and personal property be made payable at the opening of the fis- enl year with property tax payable as under the present system. Mayor Paonessa feels there is merit in hoth plans and be favors a changs, he said today. Baskethall Rules Will Be Interrupted Tonight L. R, Nixon, D. Mahoney, N. ©.
