THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
BURYING GROUNDS IN DISPUTE A* Bill Presented to Give City Title to Tract, Who owns the “old burying ground?” A strip of four acres along Oliver Ave. adjacent to Greenlawn Cemtery, which the State Legislature donated to the “citizens of Indianapolis” for a burying ground, is again up for dispute following Introduction of bills in both houses of the Legislature vesting the title in the city of Inidana polls. Senator Miller of Indianapolis introduced the measure in the Senate, and Representative Asa Smith In the Houso. The plot has not been used for a burying ground for many years, and for some time has been used by the board of sanitary commissioners of Indianapolis as a storage place and repair shop. Several days ago, Representative Wysong introduced a bill giving the T. H., I. & E. Traction Cos. the right to erect a freight terminal on the ground. Would Regulate “Payment” Sales Recording of all conditional sales with the county recorder is required in a bill introduced by Senator Durham. The measure would make It necessary for furniture, houses and automobile sales agencies operating on the payment plan to file contracts of sale. A similar measure was defeated tw r o years ago.
