The receipts for the year ending April 30, 1950, were $1,960.56 and the assets consisting of cash were the same as of that date. The deductions from police salaries were 0582.14. The Trustees estimate the receipts for the coming year as $3,000.00 from deductions from police salaries, 10% of business liquor and peddlers licenses, 75% of dog licenses, 10% of Village Ordinance fines. The tax levy of .0075 should produce approximately 4,1800.00. The statute requires that there be a reserve of 01,000.00 for each 1,000 inhabitants and the Trustees are of the opinion that the reserve over and above the 0,000.00 required should, by April 30, 1951, be enough to provide r ,, for one year total disability for two police - men. The maximum amount collectible being $1,800.00 per year for each policeman.
