Women Charge Delay in Study Of Merit Bill

League Scores Legislative Tactics

The League of Women Voters today charged legislators with delaying study of the city merit system bill to prevent its introduction into the legislature. A spokesman for the women's group, Mrs. Alfred Noling, scored the delaying’ tactics, saying, “It is the obligation of the Marion county delegation . . . to introduce the bill and let it stand on its merits in consideration by the house and the senate.” The legislation would establish 8 merit system for hiring Indianapolis city employees. 4 ‘A Faint Suspicion’

In {ts charges the league declared that legislators have offered “flamboyant opposition,” but have countered all requests.for introducing the bill with the proposal that the bill be studied further. “There is at least a faint suspiclon,” sald Mrs. Noling, “that this proposal means that the study of the bill shall be continued . . . until the legislature. has adjourned sine die and the legislators have returned to their homes.” Mrs. Noling said the bill, which has the support of the chamber of commerce, is. opposed because it would end the political patronage system,

The measure, an orphan without a sponsor since the opening of the! general assembly, probably will be drawn and ready for introduction yet this week. Although it is permissive only, it has been estimated that if every county in Indiana were to come under its provisions the public would save more than $10 million in school costs. As originally discussed the bill would have made establishment of for the proposal is the ‘fact that a county school board and county

The bill provided an open appropiration for purchasing the land and $500,000 to finance a state office biulding commission.

Leo Rappaport, Indianapolis attorney, took sides with the property owners yesterday in a letter to Governor Gates, Lieutenant Governor Richard James and House Speaker Hobart Creighton,

He declared he represented no group in the matter, but pointed to [the fact that $85,000 in- property taxes would be lost each year if the property.was purchased by the state. The proposed plaza plan. calls for parking lots on property assessed at more than $1 million and which yields $48,000 annually in property taxes, he asserted.
