There are many reasons for what seems to be an unreasonable jump in the tax first being that voters authorized appropriations at the March town meeting of $028,839, which is $106,459 more than was voted the year before. 2.

Property values have increased only $111,706, standing now at a new valuation, after veterans' exemptions, at $9,829,464. 3. The town, by court order, has had to reimburse the power companies $17,693 for overpayment on back taxes during this tax year, so had to allow $36,665 in the overlay account instead of the usual amount of about $21,000. Furthermore, the town had to reduce the power companies' taxable valuation figure by $31,610 to comply with the court order. c--Receipts from excise faxes dropped and veterans'' exemptions, totalling $8,200, had to be offset by properly taxes arid the town will get no state reimbursement for such taxes this year.

If any'reimbursement forthcoming for veterans' faxes, Chairman Frank R. Kauffman said Thursday night, the amount won't be known until after the next session of legislature Altogether, the town must raise $825,800 by property taxes, or about $130,900 more than in 1965. a Kauffman said L. Everett Outhouse, town auditor, met with the selectmen and Town Manager Cecil 0. Lancaster Thursday afternoon lo help wind i up the tax figures.

He 'pointed out that $44,696 was transferred from the balance of accounts this year, as compared to $19,229 in 1965, and said that since this is the money the town operates on between the year's end and town meeting, it is thin' and should be increased. However, Kauffman a i increasing that amount this year would be an added burden on tax aboul account before the next town meeting. For a further-loot at where the money is going; General operating expenses were increased at the town meeting by $44,450. This amount includes an additional bond pay ment and interest on the new Kiltery Point School of $27,400. Also, the public operating expenses were up $12, 000, another $12,000 increase was for PW equipment, and there was $5,000 more appropriate for'road mulching Ihis year than Quick to Pay It may have hurt, but Portsmouth taxpayers have been paying their lax bills this year at a rapid clip.

NHEA Protests Lower Standards For Certification MANCHESTER, N. H. (AP) The New Hampshire Educa- ion Association has called for in.end to emergency certifica- ion standards teachers, maintaining that-the lowering of standards should be accepted is a temporary measure. last.

Mclntyre has repeatedly challenged Thyng to stand up on his own two feet" and debate in public the issues of the 1966 campaign. Thyng did not respond to the challenge until. Thursday, when he rejected it.

However, Manchester publisher William Loeb, an ardent promoter of Thyng's candidacy offered earlier this week to debate Mclntyre on television. Mclntyre, who contends Thyng is a "puppet" of Loeb's, I accepted (he offer. Bui Mcln- tyre said he "musl insist that my opponent participate in the debate."

Despite Mrs. Johnson's "two million" remark, Melbourne police estimated the turnout for the President at half a million who jammed the sidewalks for many blocks, cheering and wav ing American flags under a rain of tickertape from the city's tall buildings.
