Some Informal discussion followed as to the proper form of certifying the school fund levy and that portion of the reso lution was adopted separately from the other parts. Talk tver the Levy Matter. Then the council went "at ease" so the members could talk over the city levy without formality. This discussion lasted for half an hour and then Jeff W. Bedford moved that the committee report other than that referring to the school funds bo adopted. Mr. Funkhouser moved to amend by fixing the amount of the general fund at S.fMio and .he sinking fund at L!15,000. Bedford moved as a substitute that the figures Included In the report be approved. Mr. Zn-iman spoke In favor of the amendment, pleading for the lowest levy possible to produce satisfactory results. He declared that every fund had received an Increase hy the leKislature and that any levy above th figures offered by Mr. Funkhouser would be an unnecessary burden on the taxpayera. Mr. Funkhouser also spoke for his amendment, declaring thnt the council !i not responsible for an Increase of l0u,001, as the leulflature fixed the amount. He was In favor of Hie extreme levy at first, manting to take up some bonds but was Inter wllllns to acquiesce in the Idea thai the nest ei neratlon should pay part of the rres.-nt h'irilHis of eltT government.
