when collected, and 'if all taxes
which are now delinquent to the
city were paid all overdrafts and
outstanding warrants could

It therefore follows as a mat-
ter of course that payment of
delinquent taxes will relieve the
city of the burden which it car-
ries at this time, and all delin-
quent taxes should be pe l<l In
order to do this.
Since the recent action of the
city council In reducing its oper-
ating expenses we have been asked
many times why such action was
necessary? Why the city council
could not refund Its overdraft or
outstanding warrant* as has been
done In the past, by Issuing re-
funding bonds or borrowing money
for Its operating expense*?
In 1031 the legislature parsed
Article 2368A. known as the Bond
and Warrant Law, and this law
prohibits any municipality from is-
suing warrants payable from cur-
rent revenues for.,current expens-
es In an amount in excess of Ita
expected revenues for the partic-
ular fund upon which it is drawn,
and further provides, “that ,no
such warrants shall ever be refund-
ed, but they must be discharged
out of the designated fund," ahd
provides that such warrants shall
not be paid out of taxes levied
for any subsequent year.
Therefore, under the provisions
of this law, and our city charter,
the council can not Issue warrants
to pay current expenses of any par-
ticular fund in an amount exceed-
ing the expected revenues for that
