County Budget |

Hearings Begin

Biggest in History

County Councilmen today removed their coats, rolled up their sleeves and began ‘several days” of public hearings on county appropriations for 1951. It is the largest request in county history. County candidates in the fall election, taxpayers’ representatives and just plain people crowded into the council's attic chambers to hear the department heads plead for $19,486,655 to run their charges next year, The budget calls for $5,241,405 more than was appropriated last

Gas Utility have nothing to do with politics. Politicians generally, are honest, sincere and hard-working.

Yet, it was the purpose and intent of the State Legislature ~4o-keep politics out of the management of -the-Gas————-Uniy. Why? There were two ritEigel reasons:

‘L, The Legislators wanted to ake sure that experienced

“Contrary to general opinion,

County Councilmen, however, have indicated that salary increases will be granted only in hardship cases. The bulk of the increase is found in the welfare department's budget. A sum of $4,937,005 was appropriated last year for the operation of the welfare department and the Guardians Home. This year $7,354,242 has been asked. Only $26,045 of this figure is requested for the Guardians Home. The rest of the increase is asked for operation of the welfare department.

2. To successfully plan for the needs of tomorrow, long range thinking is necessary. It was important, therefore, that elected office-holders with an understandably short-. term viewpoint, would not interfere with the long range planning, so vital to the welfare of gas service in Indianapolis.

Has this “business management” paid off? You be the judge: You pay less for gas today than you did in 1935—in the face of large increases in the cost'of raw materials like coal'and oil, more employees at higher scales of pay and dn expenditure of over ~12}4 million dollars on mains, plant and equipment to keep pace
