They felt that 0100,000. could easily be re- <br /> duced from the base, that 10 more in personnel could be cut and that <br /> salary expenses could be taken, with increases, out of the cut budget. <br /> The 114, increase of last year for teachers would not be even considered <br /> as allowable for this year. <br /> It was agreed that approximately $140,000. should be cut from the total <br /> budgets submitted for this year. <br /> The nea, meeting night is scheduled for Tuesday, February 9, 1971. <br /> The meeting was adjourned et 11:20 P.M. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> G . 7 �J� � <br /> Elizabeth M.
