In any event thse chairman et the finance committee, lawycr L. C. Mason, told Council Monday nigbt that a substantial increase couhd Lnet be avoideýI even atter ail spending estimates had been cut ta the lowest minimum. Tise ex- act rate wiii be disclosed hater atter school estimates and hydre rentais have been given further review. In his address on the question, Councillor Mason submitted a re- solution wbich called for a reduc- tion efthtie annual amount now paid tise Public Utilities Com- mission as rental on water hyd- rants. His proposai was a fiat rate et $10 per bydrant as a stand- by provision for maintenance and new installations. In bis view the Commission was receiving an ex- orbitant amount on thse system which bas been long since paid for. His submission pointed out tise extraordinary expenditures incur- red,by council in recent ycars for varieus public improveme n t s, wbich have added materially te tbe interest rates on debentures, togetiser with beavy ordinary ex- penditures, left ne option te coun- cil but te advance tise mili rate. Reduction et hydrant rentais would save at least ene mili. Hîs resolution carried. Other items expected te be pruned are the estimates efthtie Board et Education and the large amount originally asked for roads and streets by Reeve Baker for tise 1948 program. Salary in- creases, new tire equipinent, a new police car and other items have contributed to the increascd burden on preperty owners. The prospect for tise future indicates little relief since debentures for a new scisool,,new hospital and pas- sibly a new rink may run to an- otiser quarter million dollars. Witb the 50 Per cent refund fren tise provincial government on tise cost et education, the local tax rate f cli some three years ago te around 36 milis. Witb this re- fund still applicable tise rate bas gone steadily upward te its pres- ent level without much public protest. Ratepayers, however, can be assured tisat tise 1948 levy .s set at the lowest possible fig- ure.1 OBITUARY JOHN B. CHALLIS In failingc heahth for tise past 18 years, John B.
