TAX GROUPS TO BRING PRESSURE ON LEGISLATURE Experts Declare Gasoline Fund Is City’s ‘Worst Budget Offender.’ BY AL LYNCH Time* Staff Writer With the duplications of salaries said to be contained in the 1933 city budget which were the result of legislative action, civic organizations and tax reform groups of the city have vowed additional interest” in proposed laws and amendments to present bills that will be thrown into the next legislative assembly. Made a political “football” for many legislative sessions, the gasoline tax fund, derived from special state automobile license and the 4 cents a gallon tax on gasoline, is the worst offender, it Is said. Upon discovery - of the alleged duplication it was found that practically every office position of the city engineers office and some of those in the street commissioner's office have two separate salary checks each month. In a breakdown of the gasoline fund and its budget, the duplication of salaries is revealed by tax experts. Payment of this duplication of salaries in the office instead of for labor, increases the tax bill of the city many thousands of dollars, it is said. It is pointed out by tax experts that special street bonds follow such practice, but a check reveals that no special street bonds have been requested by this administration. Tax experts realize that under the present city budget, a saving of onehalf the salaries -was made by taking the other half of the salaries from the gas fund. However, it is said to be the contention that the salaries are twice what they should be for work accomplished under these economic conditions. Straight salaries, as set out in the city budget for the engineer’s department, include: R?iilar Salaries and Waites —Office Administration— Civil engineer ’* ?'?nasn Senior assistant 2,308.50 Two assistants . 3,482 v 6 Junior assistant J -487.00 Senior oflice did Llsl Office aid §BB.BO Senior draftsman go®.™ Junior draftsman (three* 2,700 00 Secretary to engineer 886.50 Junior stenographers (two* 1.740 94 Senior field aids (two* 2.693 26 Junior field aids (tw0*......... 1.767.30 Junior field aids (four* 22 Chief clerk 1 i?l 22 Assistant clerk JCO.OO Total $31,188.96 —Flood Prevention and Bridge Department— Senior office aid $ } Junior field aids (two) . 1.680.00 Senior field aid 1 Foreman 1,151.25 Total $5,554.65 —lnspection DepartmentChief inspector $ M 87.00 Senior inspectors (two) 2.230.50 Junior inspectors (two* 1.977(20 Inspectors (seven) 5,880.00 Inspectors (five, eight months*.. 2.800.00 Clerk 970.47 Total $15,345.17 —Laboratory Department— Chemical engineer * 2.240 00 Assistant chemical engineer. 1.282.50 Senior chemical aid 1.115.25 Junior chemical aid 200 00 Laboratory Inspectors (two* 1,680.00 Total * 7.217.75 —Street Lighting DepartmentSuperintendent $ 1.500.00 Total $60,806.53 Duplication of the same salaries are found under the gasoline budget as follows: —Services, Contractual — For resurfacing and or widening and or constructing streets and bridges $75.000.00 Special Street Fund —Services, Personal——Regular Salaries and Wages— Office Administration — Civil engineer . $ 1,125.00 Senior assistant <69.50 Two assistants 1.154.25 Junior assistant 513.00 Senior office aid 384.75 Office aid 329.53 Junior office aid 297.33 Senior draftsman 329.53 Junior draftsmen (threei 893. 8 Secretarv to engineer 313.50 Junior stenographers (two* 659 06 Senior field aids (two* 897.75 Junior field aids (two* 632.70 Junior field aids (four* 1,083.00 Chief clerk 513.00 Assistant clerk 29 <.83 Clerk 384.75 Total $10,578 46 —Flood Prevention and Bridge Department— Senior office aid $ 461.70 Junior field aids (two* 541.50 Senior field aid 461.70 Foreman 384.75 Total $1,849 65 —lnspection Department— Chief Inspector $ 513.00 Senior inspectors (two* <69.50 Junior inspectors 659.06 Inspectors (regular* 1.895.25 Inspectors (five. 8 months* 902 50 Clerk 329.53 Total $5.068 84 —Labortary Department— Chemical engineer $ 760.00 Assistant chemical engineer 427.50 Senior chemical engineer 384.75 Junior chemical engineers 297.83 Laboratory inspectors 541.50 Total $2,411.58 Grand Total. civil engineer (grand total includes office supplies* $23,241.78 Straight salaries set out in the city budget for the street commissioner’s office include: —Regular Salaries and Wages— Commissioner $1,410.75 Assistant commissioner and chief clerk 855 00 Timekeeper 663.81 Clerk 595 65 Typist 950.00 Total $ 4.475 21 Alleged duplication of salaries set out in the gasoline tax fund budget list the following: —Regular Salaries and Wages— Commissioner $1.410 75 Assistant commissioner and chief clerk 855.00 Timekeeper 659 06 Clerk 595.65 Total * 5.520 46 CITY PURSE-SNATCHING RACKETEER BUSY AGAIN Dupes Girl With Story of Payment on Policy, Police Learn.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SYMPHONY TO CLOSE DRIVE FORJEMBERS Campaign Will Be Brought to Finish Tomorrow at Luncheon. The membership campaign of the Indiana State Symphony Society will be brought to a close tomorrow at the final report luncheon at the Athenaeum. Prizes will be given those team captains who have brought in the largest number of subscriptions for the season. Drive leaders made a final appeal yesterday to city music lovers to give their support to this civic enterprise. “The Indianapolis Symphony orchestra,” asserted Sidney Sullivan, “is a self-supporting, co-operative institution. It is composed of musicians who believe that the city needs good music to round out its cultural experience and who are willing to sacrifice their time and effort in rehearsal, study and public appearance for an incredibly small amount of money. “Our orchestra played last season,” said Mr. Sullivan, “five major concerts of full symphony ‘caliber and length, in Indianapolis; two similar concerts in cities outside Indianapolis, and four children’s concerts for the musical education of
