The County’ 8 ‘Debt,
If the reader will glance at the
financial statement of Centre county
be will see at the close of the state
ment that the total indebtedness of
the county is $38 540 82, which means
that during the two years the present
board of county commissioners have
been in charge of the aflairs eof the
county, the indebtedness bas been
decreased from $189 505 84 io 1912 to
$38 540 82, on January 6, 1914, a re.
duction of indebtedness smounting
to $101,001 02 in the two years.
The increase in millage for which
the present board of commissioners iw
responsible yielded not over $25 000
per year. Deducting this there is yet s
balarce ot $50,000 due on account of
the introduction of strict business
methceds. The fluances of the county
indicate that if it were possible to cal!
in the court house bonds, the entire in-
debtedness of the county could be
wiped out within two years. Bat
these bonds cannot be paid at present,
and this . will no doubt lead the
county commissioners to again reduce
the millage.
