Park Department’s tax rate. The expenditure must be approved finally by the State Tax Board. Mr. Campbel] initiated - opposition to the proposed expenditure, which will be made by transferring funds from the|depastment’s WPA sponsor's contribution.

He asserted that the Park’ Board members and Director Middlesworth were “pot in favor” of the recrea--tion -assistant, but had approved the {dea “pecause they had to” after the Recreation Advisory Committee proposed it. - “I don’t think members were all,” he said. Mr. Middlesworth is. The Mayor's Advisory Committee brought |it up, didn’t it? .“The City of Indianapolis doesn’t) need a committee to tell us how to spend more money. There -are plenty of officials in the City Hall 40 do that. We need a committee fo tell us wherg to save money by operating more |efficiently.” ..-Albert H. Gisler, Park Board vice esident, challenged Mr. Campbell’s statement that other Board members and | Mr. Middlesworth were not in favor of the assistant.

gation of 50 Talbot ‘and Pennsylvania Sts. property owners, including some political figures, appeared to debate it, The company had proposed to reroute the line from 16th St. north to 22d St. to avoid congestion on Talbot St.

Mrs. Kern Opposed to It

According to the plan, the bus would go north on Talbot to, 22d and return south on Pennsylvania to 16th, where it would follow its present route south on Pennsylvania to town. At present, the bus runs south from 22d on “Pennsylvania ;jonly to 21st St. where it turns east to Talbot St. Favoring the change were Ezra 'D, Hill, 1882 N. Talbot: Probate Court’ Judge Smiley Chambers, 1605 N. Talbot; Mrs. ‘Eugene Fife and Eugene Fife Jr., 2036 N. Talbot, and A. W.- Brandt, 1810 N. Talbot. They contended that re-routing

Pennsylvania, former State Representative; Mrs John W. Kern, 1836 N. Pennsyl-| vania, mother of the formeir Mayor; Thomas Hendrickson, 2029 N. Pennsylvania, and Joseph C. Wallace, = 1840 N. Penhsylvania. They said that the bus would end the quiet summer evenings they, spend on their porches and deteriorate property values in one of | the most venerable resideritial sec‘tions of Indianapolis. z Judge Chambers assured the’ Pennsylvania residents that they would not mind the trolley once they got used to it.

So It Was Held Over

But Mrs. Kern couldn't be convinced. “I've lived on that street 41 years,” she said. “We bought our property there because there wasn’t a carline. A bus will ruin the quiet, Iresidential character of the street.” Mr. Fife contended that the problem was merely one of public transportation and did not involve property rights or values. Mr. Blain said that since the Pennsylvania property owners had built their street, they were entitled o some consideration. Mrs. Fife closed the discussion with a neighborly appeal: “Let's be good neighbors,” she said. “Let. the people on ‘Pennsyl-| vania St. take one-half the burden and we'll take the other half, That would be fair.” Councilmen - pondered the problem far into the night after the throng left. Finally, Council President Joseph G. Wood said :: “I = make up my mind. What
