W * ■ .I— mu ■ ■ -- ia»ii«>i —aM Mayor Gage’s Speech Mayor Donald F. Gage gave a very informative, very interesting account of the progress which Decatur is making under the present administration when he spoke over WOWO Wednesday evening. Undoubtedly a number of people in the tri-state area got a very good opinion of Decatur from the description. Decatur is paving a number of streets, repairing quite a few others, building an addition to the fire station, buying a new ladder truck, erecting two water towers, completing a circular water pressure system around the city, and making other needed improvements. This is real progress — improvements are being made that would have to be made sooner or later, and Decatur is making them right now. But we think it is only fair to point out that a lot of credit for this should be given to former Mayor Robert D. Cole, former city attorney John M. DeVoss, and the present and past city council. It was through their foresight that the city arranged to sell the electric plant, the sale of which makes all of these things possible, plus a reserve of nearly $1 million for future improvements. And we think it is only fair to point out that the 14-cent tax raise this past year in the city levy would not have been necessary if Indiana-Michigan’s assessed valuation had been added to the tax rolls a year earlier, when the city first tried to sell the light plant, at a higher price than the final price. It was certainly a strange quirk of fate that allows the administration of the proceeds from the sale of the plant to be accomplished by a group of the very people who were opposed to the sale of the plant, and who were members of the citizens committee against the sale! <- Mayor Gage has, however, tried to do as the Democratic city council wishes with the money; so far, they have received more in interest, or in increased value of sold securities, than they have spent. The assessment of I&M’s personal property has been completed, and the utility assessment will be made, of course, from the company’s records in Indianapolis. This will allow either a reduction in the tax rate this next year, or an increase in services. Which do you want? Be sure that your city councilman knows before the budgets are turned in this month.
