New investigations of the park board by the special city council Investigation committe are under way today following a bitter attack on Mayor Shank and city achninistration by Councilmen Otto Ray and Heydon \V.

Immediately after the meeting, the investigation committe went into secret session, members keeping the exact nature of the conference secret. President Walter W. Wise of the council, directed the park committee appear before the park board Thursday and get at the root of the delay in constructing Pleasant Run Blvd. v “Incoinpetency” Demonstrated “Mayor Shank has demonstrated his incompetency in office during the last three days by his cuts on the city budget.” said Councilman Ray. “He announces it will be an, economical year, but the citizens of Indianapolis will have to pay the bills in the next administration.” Ray then launched his attack on the delay in constructing Pleasant Run Elvd., promising the council investigation committee would take up the probe. “I have been approached by 'one hundred people within the last few weeks on this Pleasant Run Blvd. proposition,” said Ray.” Many of these citizens here tonight have paid their assessments ranging from sls to S2OO. The city is holding that money. The park board has purchased considerable property from individuals and is now renting it guaranteeing a year’s rental to tenants. Thus the citizens lose use of their money while the park board delays."

Ray. “And our good mayor has seen fit to cut' out that tax levy entirely after all his promises before election.” Aplahse greeted Ray’s statement. , . Forgets His Promises "The mayor forgot the south side where he got all his votes as soon as he took office,” said Buchanan. * We have four councilmen /rom the South side, but the mayor has played so much politics we are bound up bv vetoes in legislation of benefit.’’ Joseph L.
