Municipal League Seeks Legislation Key Objectives Os League Are Listed Indianapolis. January 7 — The Indiana municipal league today opened its drive for legislation to save Hoosier cities and towns from impending financial disaster or its alternative - back breaking property taxes. In a memorandum to mayors and other city officials. Msyor W. Vincent Youkey of Crown Point, the executive secretary of the league, warned that campaigning for the league's legislative program must start immediately. Key objectives of the league in the 1947 session of the legislature, involving the distribution of >20,000.000 In state-collected funds, are: 1. Repeal of the gross income tax on municipal revenues. 2. Return to the cities and towns of 38.000.000 of the state's annual gross income tax collection of >45. 918.895. 3. Return to the cities and towns of 37.000.000 of the state's annual 317.061.518 excise tax collections, because of the responsibilities and additional duties falling upon the local units In the enforcing of the liquor law and control of its attendant problems drunks, brawls, reckless driving, gambling, to minors, crowded court dockets, etc., all of which demands greater police protection. 4 Return to the cities and towns of 85.01)0,000 of the state's annual motor vehicles fund of 142,751.614. to build iXid maintain the cities' heavily traveled streets The 82<>.000.000 redistribution to cities and towns is in addition to the 84.500,000 now received by municipalities and the grant of 8900.000 to larger cities from motor vehicle fund allocations to coun ties, x

"The biggest jMtrt of this money comes from the cities and towns, and we are «Uiy asking for enough t>t it back to keep from sinking." .Mayor Youkey said "This 320.000.000 request is ba«ed on a 50 percent increase in the cost of muni clpa! government — an increase which alone cannot beat." Notwithstanding increases in salaries and wages, materials and maintenance, cities are faced with widespread obsolescence in equipment. This now has to be replaced a a quickly as possible. Mayor Youkey said. LABOR PLANS (Continued from Page 1) of an emergency, law permitting women to work at night. Both CIO and AFL will unite in opposition to local option or any other form of liquor prohibition legislation. A CIO official indicated that if pressure for a local option law appeared heavy, an attempt would be made to force legislation denying dry areas In Indiana flnan<tal benefits from the state liquor tax. This. It was felt, would klir any battle for local option aa communities "would lie more interested In obtaining state funds than In going dry." « The (TO also planned to >«k for a re-evaluation of the property tax system in Indiana. One official of the union said the pres--1 ent system contained numerous injustices. He Indicated that the ' tax should be imsed not only on 1 the value of the land and building hut also on Income derived from 1 the property.
