Company has deprecated at least rs
per cent isnce 1928, John Cline,
Seymour, general maintenance man

an insufficient number of men had
been employed.

State Cops Promise Action
on Traffic Trucks With
improper Plates.

Tow-in trucks of the Indianapolis
Motor Inns, Inc, which have been
busy towing in parking ordinance
violators may find themselves
towed in by the state police.
For Chief Grover G. CARROT of
the state police has ordered an in
vestigation of the license plates
If any-used by the tow-in trucks.

to those engaged in selling cars.

ment that the tow-in trucks carry
dealers licenses, although the COM

Informed Of this, CARROT put his
men to work on the case and the
company will be required to live
up to provisions of the state law,
even if they were busily engaged
enforcing the Indianapolis ordi-

BOUNDARY STILL
is UNDECIDED IN
TAXATION FIGHT
Power and Light Plant Is
Held by Decatur
Township.

Although a boundary dispute be-
tween Perry and Decatur townships
still was unsettled legally today, De-
catur township had the claim on
the Harding street generating plant
of the indianapolis Power and
Light Company, assessed at
100000.
Both townships seek collection Of
taxes on the property, but the
county board Of review was forced
to locate the assessment in one Of
them because Tuesday was the final
day for making the assessments.
While the two county units ar
gued their claims to the taxes, the
light company today appealed to the
state tax board against the $4,000 900
assessment, claiming not only that
the true value of the property was
but 1882, 065.54, but that the county
board had no right to make the
assessment.
Claim March 1 Figure
The state tax board assessed the
property March /, this year, the
light company contended in its
appeal.
The township battle already has
found its way into court. The
board acted in fixing the assess
ment while attorneys were awaiting
hearing in superior court one on an
injunction to restrain the board
from setting the boundary lire.
The injunction hearing was post
pones by Judge Pro tenn. Charles
j. Karabell until Thursday morning.
The light company would prefer
fixation of its property in Decatur
township because of lower tax rate
there. In that township the rate
is $151, compared with $2.13 in
Perry township, a difference ag-
gregating $4,000 in taxes annually.
Precedent Is Cited
Precedent favors the boards &C

Perry township assessor contends
the land should be in Perry town.

with ruling in 1888 that placed
all land east of White river in that
unit. The river since then has
shifted its course.
