THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES -

Council Seeks New Source

To Ease Burden on Property [FOR P-T5 PLANE

As It Scans

Record Budget

By RICHARD LEWIS

The financing of municipal gove

rnment in Indianapolis has reached

a critical stage this year where some other revenue source than property| {

taxes will have to help carry the load.

This is the thinking of a majority of city councilmen after their first week of examining the proposed city budget for 1047—a record

$15,000,000. Council adjourned last night un-| tii Monday afternoon, after study- | ing the $1,166,577.20 requested by. the park department. Civic representatives were on hand to plead that this amount, of which $978,996.3 ‘would be raised by tax levy, be retained. Councilmen questioned few items, resigned vhemselves to the increases of $284,207.56 over last year, although some cuts may be made later, 20-Cent Cut Possible Most councilmen believe they can cut the total budget and reduce the

record rate it would take to finance it—$2.408—by 20 cents at the maximum. This would still leave a record civil city tax rate, still push the total Center inside rate well over $4. A resolution which City Clerk Frank J. Noll Jr. has drawn up for the council will be introduced Mon-

1 per cent gross income tax was instituted this year in Toledo. It) survived a referendum and its au-| thors predict wonders for it. Philadelphia has had a payroll | tax for years. It has not been popular there and has not solved the city’s financial problem, according to governmental surveys. When this resolution is infroduced Monday, Councilman Max White, a Democrat, will issue a statement opposing the payroll tax and urging that the budget be cut back to match this year's $1.57, Mr. Noll's resolution may not be accepted because it may sound too drastic to some of%the members. But fundamentally it is a clear statement of what a majority of the councilmen believe is true: That Indianapolis is reaching a point where it is exhausting its property tax resources and must |

day. It says: “We, the members of the comgnon council , . . confronted with | ‘the task of passing upon the largest | budget ever submitted by the offi-| cials of the city to this body, feel that while certain reductions can and will be madgq, the seriousness of the situation relative to the financing of the government of the city forcibly impresses upon us the undeniable fact that property tax has reached a point where the burden upon it is excessive and must be relieved. Other Means Suggested “We further realize that the cost of government is increasing each year and we are of the dbinion that other means of financing the government to supplement property tax and thus relieve the burden thereon should and must be found.” Therefore, continues the resolution, council will go on record as recommending that definite action

be taken by the proper persons to|!

therefore tap other sources of

| wealth to meet its rising costs. rina ————————————
