Mrs. Bird declines Republican women’s committee post
Mrs. Charles Sumner Bird, vice president of the Massachusetts Woman Suffrage Association, said she will not serve as chair of the Republican State committee's women’s panel. She plans to focus on building the Massachusetts League of Women Voters and will leave suffrage work to pursue nonpartisan civic efforts. At Kimball Building headquarters officials offered no name for the new chair, though several prominent Republican women were said to be under consideration for the 40-member committee.

In submitting the annual budget to the City Council, Mayor Peters warned that the 10.52 tax limit falls short. He noted a deficit of 1,699,948.55 drawn from the city surplus to fund needed improvements and salary increases, marking the largest budget in city history.

City Budget Shows Increases Amid Tight Cuts
The mayor and budget officials cut department estimates by 1.17 million while the city county budget totals 30.4 million. The plan funds two $700 salary raises and two $400 raises for council employees as part of an unwritten agreement. A council vote opposed by Mr. Hagan aims to prune the budget to help laborers gain more pay, while Mayor Peters adds raises for his office staff. The tax limit rises to 10.52 per thousand, with a projected budget shortfall despite a year-end surplus and a debt reduction of nearly 50 percent.
