Only Small Amount Unimproved
Street Work Planned for
Next Year.

On the theory a citizen who has
been directly assessed for permanent
improvement of his street should not
pay taxes for keeping up unimproved
highways. Mayor Shank today an
nOunced he will cut the 1928 appro-
priation for gravel and road oil to the
bone.
The board Of works has agreed
with me we should provide only
enough money to keep up important
unimproved streets in sections where
property valuations are not high
enough to permit permanent improve
ment," said the mayor.
About the only place We'll do any
work on unimproved streets next
year. under this plaA, will be in West
indianapolis, Haughville, south of the
Belt and in Brightwood. II other sec
tons want their dirt streets oiled or
graveled they'll have to pay for it.
There's no use spending thousands
Of dollars each year to keep up gravel
streets when a permanent improve
ment can be laid ard maintained for
less than it costs to keep the unim-
proved street in condition year after
