Will Cut City Revenue From Monday's Daily
City revenues will fall about 82 000 yearly due to two recent decisions. The state taxing bodies to collect on securities in trusts outside the state will cost the city over 1600. A state supreme court ruling on foreign bread wagons will cut about 300. In 1928 the city expected 4300 from intangible property tax, now 2700. the county and others face similar declines. Bert Wells, Wichita city manager, notes expected opposition but invites visits to his new Atchison-affiliated residence. Several local notices follow, including fines for intoxication and fighting and movements of residents and staff.
