Iowa budget seen $534000 short if levy stays at two mills
Comptroller C Fred Porter warned that unless Governor Wilson approves all remaining appropriations and the two mill levy is kept, Towa's budget would be about 534000 in deficit. He projected general fund needs 17494218 yearly, offset by trust funds and taxes, leaving 6294218 to be raised by levy. A veto on ag land tax credits could balance the budget.
