Canton Faces Severe Budget Gap in 1922 Appropriation
Canton council passed a semiannual appropriation ordinance showing a 114000 deficit for the first half of 1922, constrained by a new state rule on operating expenses. The finance committee trimmed the total to 655693.73 and urged a five percent wage cut for city employees to stay within income. Mayor Curtis vows retrenchment, abolition of nonessential positions, and waste elimination across departments.
