Tax Rate The propositions submitted 'for v'oting are to raise the maximum tax rate of the High school district for educational purposes from one per- cent to one and one-haîf percent and for building purposes from tbree- eighths of one percent to one-baîf of one percent. Apparently this is for the purpose of raising taxes to be collected, but the board of educa- tion explains that the real purpose is only to permit the school to bave the same'number of dollars as ini re- cent years. For several years past the tôtal scbool Ievy certified bas been $735,00. It is explained that there is no intention to certifv to a higher levy, but due to certain recent- legislation the. board has been stopped from obtaining the amount for the 1933 levv, to go into collection next winter, and the, 1934 levy which is to -be certified on August 7, will be dras- tically cnt by the- county clerk q iess tbe referendum carnies. The loss under the 1933 levy is estimated at between $60,000 and $70,000 below the 1932 levy now being collected. .
