Major budget presentation Mon day came from the Board of Edu cation of Orange County. Appear- 'V ing in person before the commis sioners , with Superintendent G. Paul Carr as spokesman, the school heads called tefr approval cf a current expense budget of $93,811, which is approximately $18,50 more than was requested a year ago, and submitted capital outlay requests totalling $131,217 .50, including an unexpended bal ance of $25,000 get up last year for additions to the Cedar Grove Negro School. ' Included in the presentation as a supplementary report on school needs irr the county system, Cart presented mimeographed sheets showing immediate needs totalling $352,718 and long range needs feulUng $872$00. Th6.ij matlled iecept m»es"i fir**'? * Ch ‘rvJ Hill Board of Trustee* for over $300,000 in "immediate needs** § and over $800,OdO ill "long range** needs. Major item* accounting for the increased current expense request in the county system was the re quest for 10 percent pay increases for personnel not paid by the State, to match the setroactive raises given teachers and other state employees, a $5,000 request for the employment of an attend ance officer for the schools, in- „ creased fuel, light apd power costs which based- on the past year will require double the appropriation of a year ago for these purposes, and other requests incident to the normal growth of the schools. Prior to Monday's meeting, the Board of Welfare had presented its request for appropriations which totalled some $700 more than a year ago, and the District Health Officer fyad asked for an additional budgetary appropria tion of $4,200 to equalize this county’s contribution to the four- — county deDartment. Indications were that, the Com missioners favor retention of the $1 tax rate. - "... However, no definite action was taken on any of the requests pending further study of all bud get requests and estimation of the * tax yield for the coming year.
