Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Eldon Pletcher. A man labeled "City Council" leans on his desk or a counter, chin in one hand and holding a pencil in the other. The man's expression shows dismay or uncertainty. The man wears a large round medal with the words, "For the most unrewarding task of the year." Behind him on the wall is a sign with "November 30." Before him on the desk or counter are pieces of paper with "Decisions...Decisions...Decisions...Adoption of 1968 city operating and capital budgets...Revenue measures available to meet budget requests."
