J. King and Supt. Stanley H. Holmes, appeared at the meeting to explain the need for funds 1o carry on the work of the department. King Explains Need of Funds Mr. King pointed out the need for funds o carry on a repair program nefore the rcopening of schools in September and to meet a shortage of $48,987.04 in the new building fund. A third matter, that of pro- viding funds for the construction of the High school addition, would not be brought before the board until after bids are received next Mon- Mr. King told the members. Speaking on the matter of a short- age Mr. King said it had been in ex- istence since 1918, He said the money was left in a general fund and it was drawn for some projects which created debt in others. Chairman Edward 1%, Hall asked if Mr. King remembered the finance Loard's appropriating a sum of money for relief several years ago. Mr. King's answer was that if such an appropriation was made it was { before his time, but Mr. Hall said he was on the finance board for a shorter time than the school board's president was on that committee. Supt. Holmes could not recall the raatter and it was not discussed fur- the 1t was agreed thal an appropria- tion would be ni for each indi- vidual job instead of drawing from the general school building fund as has been the custom in the past. 2,817 Allowance for Repairs Mr. King told the board that §16, 4$5.67 in repairs must be done this summer and that 5 should be :xpended if the city was to save it- f from turther lo Mr. Hall was of the opinion that a maximum of 220,000 for the en- tire amount was sufficient. After the school board members left the meeting members of the finance lourd cxpressed the belief that there are many repairs which must be made or serious losses would result. It was voted to allow $22,517. It was pointed out that the school board favored $70,000 for repairs, | {but after considerable discussion had reduced the amount to $60,000. When it came before the board of finance and taxation it was further reduced to $45,000 and the common council special committee reduced # to $40,000. Postpone Bond Issue Decision i Chairman Hall explained that | when the bids on the addition to the Senior High school are received and the finance board examines them, it will be able to decide upon the bond issue. This will also care for the Isracl Putnam reconstruction problem. It was the unanimous vote of that hoard that the additional tax be added to the grand list next year and that the bond issue be decided wpon later, Mayor Paonessa declared that would not be long before another | tax would have to be levied to aid the board of public works in its ef- forts to give work to unemployed.
