Recommends Funds Slash

Old-Age Assistance Appropriation Hit

{ The first major cut in the all-! time record budgets of local gov- | ernments for 1949 was made togay at a ooumty council tax hear8g. : + While hearing ‘ details of the record $4,800,000 county welfare department budget, the council sliced $90,000 off the proposed spending for old age assistance next year. The reduction was made on the recommendation of the County Welfare Board itself. However, despite all the cuts the council can make, the wel-! fare tax rate will still be nearyy| double the present levy. i

$2 Million Higher |

The welfare department's bud-| get for next year is nearly $2’ million more than this year's budget. Albert Stump, attorney and spokesman for the Welfare Board, explained that the big increases were necessary to provide!

all department employees and to meet vastly increased benefit rates for recipients. Also he said the estimated number of aged persons and dependent children| will be greatly increased next! year. { ‘Will Go in the Red’ i Welfare officials pointed out that the cost of caring for dependent children has increased so much this year that the fund for that service will go in the red about $100,000 before the end of this year. The Welfare Board also recommended a $30,000 reduction in| thé department’s proposed pay-| roll for next year, bringing that| budget item down to $394,000. | The welfare budget, before any! cuts were made, called for a prop-| erty tax rate of 33 cents per $100! valuation, compared to 15 cents! this year. 1 This big tax jump is part of the general increase of all pro-| posed local government budget) spending next year, which may increase property taxes here 25

Local Meat Strike Formally Opened

The housewife-sponsored “Buy| No Meat” strike was formally} launched today. It was declared under way by| Mrs. Velma Perk, 21 'W, 37th St., who has been conducting a tel-| ephone campaign for several] enrolling housewives in|

JUST LOOKING—Not in competition, Mrs. Marie Groves Phillips, Andepson, still added eye appeal to the parade. She was Miss Semper Fidelis of the Marine Corps in 1947.

SOME TOMATOES—Here are three of the reasons that judges of the bathing beauty contest at the Elwood Tomato Festival had to ask for a second look before they could decide on winners. The top three (left to right are Miss Evelyn Franklin, Elwood, third; Miss Polly Siecks, Evansville, second, and Miss Patricia Van Gets, Elwood, first place.

There was no fanfare to start! the strike rolling. Mrs. Perk said! today was the day agreed upon for the start of the boycott and that she expected several thou-| sand women to support the move-| ment. J No Rallies Planned i “We don’t plan, any rallies or show of strength,” she said. “We feel that as time goes along the lack of buying will be reflected in lower prices. “I think the women will sup-| port the campaign because it’s to their advantage to do so.” She also said one housewife reported her neighborhood grocer had taken canned salmon and fish off the shelves, to try to get women back to the meat counters,

i WR 5 FUN FOR A WEEK—These young ladies ruled Elwood and the Tomato Festival as the royal family. The co-queens and their court wound up the parade on a snowwhite float appropriately decorated with a huge red tomato. Shown are (left to right} Miss Barbara Cline, Elwood; Miss Delores’ Pike, Evansville; «Miss Pam Kahre, Peru; Queens llene and Irene Dellinger, Elwood, and Miss Helen Chapman, Péru.
