NINE-CEMT Levy
May BE SOUGHT
BY PARK BOARD
Attorney Holds State Law
Denies Council Right to
Change Figure.

The city park board may desig-
nate a 9cent levy. in accordance
with the State law. regardless of
the city councils approval. Newton
j. Mcguire, park board attorney, in
formed Mayor Shank today.
Mcguire said he did not believe
the council had the authority to
change 1t.
In view Of this Interpretation, the
board probably will not ask Joseph
l.. dogue to certify their 1926 levy
over city councils head to the Ma
ron County auditor. as was deter
mined at park board meeting Friday,
Mcguire declared.
Fight Planned
However, Otto Ray, south side
councilman, said he would lead an
attack upon the boards levy for
1926, set at cents. because levies
for track elevation, flood prevention
and the board Of sanitary commits,
sioners were reduced while the park
levy was increased from Z to
cents.
Ray criticised the board for pay
ing $51. 900 for Golden Hill Park
which he said was priced to the city
for $4,000 during the administration
of Mayor Bell.
Another Reason
Because the park board author
lied the highest bond issuance posi-
BILE under the law during 1925 and
then asks additional funds to main
tain projects bought with the bonds,
Ray said, is anothe treason for his
objections.
Failure of the board to provide
