CITY BOOSTER WEEK EXPENSE WELLJE LOW Shank Says Cooperation for Bn? Event Is Best Ever. The “overhead” of Greater Indianapolis Week, Aug. 16-23, is perhaps the lowest of any popular movement or drive of its scope ever held in Indianapolis, according to Mayor Shank. “For the first time in many years perfect cooperation has been established between the municipal government and the city’s industrial inerests,” Shank said. "We have contributed services of city employes and equipment and are not ‘soaking’ the business men as they have been hit in the past for campaign expenses. Contribution Refused Shank said William T. Bailey, assistant city attorney, had refused a large contribution from a nationlly famous Indianapolis concern and had urged that the money be expended on equipping a float for Greater Indianapolis parade, Aug. 19. Today’s mails were jammed with votes for Miss Greater Indianapolis, who will be chosen from five nominees, self-supporting, unmarried business women backed by the police, fire, park and postoffice departments and the Indianapolis Federation of Community Civic Clubs. Friends of the five young women are eagerly campaigning for their favorites. Hundreds of photographs of the girls, clipped from newspapers, were sent to headquarters at 27 N. Pennsylvania St. today. To Provide Throne The throne Miss Greater Indianapolis will occupy in the parade will be provided by the Indianapolis Real Estate Board. Indications are that Indianapolis citizens will witness the longest parade in the city’s history and it is proposed by Mayor Shank to attempt to make the event an annual occurrence, similar to the Mardi Gras of New Orleans. Nearly five hundred concerns have agreed to enter floats in the procession, according to John F. Walker, street cleaning superintendent. Scores of women, representing many local organizations, were added \o the committees sponsoring the week Wednesday.

APPEAL COT IN TAXESTO‘DADS’ Sanitary Board Says Levy Is Inadequate. City councilmen will hear the appeal of members of the board of sanitary commissioners for what they said is a tax levy adequate to include maintenance of the $3,000,000 sewage disposal plant. It was decided at a meeting today. The board set 7% cents as the minimum requirement to finance its garbage and ash collection and maintain the plant. Shank reduced this rate to 5% cents and has refused to reconsider his decision, although board members threaten to stop operation of the disposal plant and allow the sewage to pollute White River. “We believe it is more important to maintain the city’s health than to add golf links through increasing the park board’s budget,” the board declared. “We do not believe Mayor Shank realizes the seriousness of our situation.” The city council will consider the budget at its next meeting.
