To the voters of Barre I announce my candidacy for mayor. I contend the city should live within its income and cut expenditures rather than raise taxes. Over the past year city income rose by about 200 dollars from taxation, risking bankruptcy if continued. If elected I will reduce expenditures to avoid higher taxes. Frank E. Langley.
