Butler County officials consider trimming the 0.58 mill tuberculosis levy in a renewal vote next November. County Commission President William Donham proposed forming a study group with Dale Logsdon and Arthur F. Reiff to review the matter. The current levy would yield about 460000 this year with 245000 remaining from 1970 clinic operations. An advisory panel of seven physicians and laypeople may work with clinic director Dr. Henry L. Floyd. The county renewed a 1961 contract with Hughes Memorial Hospital for 40 beds at 14.50 per day. hospital use runs about 18 beds daily for TB patients, reflecting a decline due to better treatment.
