30 cents for each $1,000 of assessed valuation for the next five years to pay eff
debts our county government has accumulated. Over this five year period taxpayers

into their pockets to pay for the county's overspending, Vote YES.
If you think the county should operate within available fonds without
tapping the taxpayers for extra money now and in the future, Vote NO.

Should Detroit taxpayers foot DSR bills?
Two Charter Amendment proposals before Detroit voters November 4 are designed
to eliminate payments by the Dept. of Street Railways of school and city taxes and
payments for certain services performed for the DSR by other city departments. It
would shift charges totalling $700,000 from the fare box to the taxpayers.
When the city took over private transit lines, it was clearly provided in the city
charter that the DSR should pay its own way. These proposals would open the door
to further subsidies of the system by the taxpayers.
Charter Amendment B (Parts 2 and 3) will•result in oft annuaftex-foss: to the sctook
$180,000 and to the city, $320,000.

DSR, Vote NO.
