SKIP-ELECTION
LAW AIDS CITY
BUDGET-MAKERS
indianapolis Pulls Through
Emergency Only by
legislative Help

Two laws enacted by the 1888 In
diana legislature have enabled the
city Of Indianapolis to balance its
budget for the last six months OF
this year, it was disclosed today.
The prenatal and dental clinics,
employing fourteen dentists, six
dental assistants, and four doctors
in prenatal work, were discon-
tinued.
Additional aid was given Mayor
Reginald H. Sullivan and Evans
Woollen Jr., city controller, in ar
irving at a balanced budget when
every city department reported a
substantial balance in funds follow
ing drastic retrenchments last year
A total Of $4,000 was obtained
as a result Of the two laws, $4,000
from the beer excise tax law and
$4,000 from postponement of the
primary election as contained in the
"skip-election" law, which cut the
actual tax shortage for the last half
year to approximately $234,000.
Purchases Are Postponed
Warned at budget balancing con-
ferences for the first half year,
when many departmental funds
we're pruned to the bone, and 5 per
cent wage cut was made affecting
all city employees, department heads
have postponed the purchasing of
supplies and equipment except
when absolutely necessary, to per-
NIT the savings in their balance.
The board of safety, including the
fire and police departments, report
ed saving of $90,949.57 under its
appropriation. The board of works
reported a balance Of $35 800.
The recreation department still
must cut expenses despite the fact
that the park board reported a saw
ing of $24,168.57 under it's budget
for the first six months. Tax de-
linquencies totaling $15,438 and the
anticipated reduction of $40, $3.50 in
miscellaneous revenues threaten the
department with a net deficit of
$Z3, 100.
Wage Vacations" Slated
The health department will be
aided by Sullivan by an appropria-
ton from his special emergency
fund, which contains a balance of
$4,000. Two weeks wage vaca-
tons" also will be required for all
school nurses and employees of the
health division.
The sanitary board has made pro-
visions to absorb its $35 900 shortage
by curtailment of buying, thus re-
tanning all present personnel.
Maurice Tenant, board president,
in letter to the mayor, asserted
that not further personnel cuts
could be made in the sanitary di-

vision without endangering its
service.
Departments operating under
special tax levies have suffered most,
according to Woollen. The city sink
ing fund also was hard hit by the 16
per cent tax delinquencies, but this
shortage has been made up by
transferring funds from other bal
ances not materially affected.
AS result, the city will not de-
fault on any of its outstanding bond
or interest indebtedness. Money
now is on hand to pay Indebtedness
falling due Aug. l.
I'VE have been exceedingly eau
tious during the first six months, -
Sullivan said, in commenting on the
savings in many departments, "be-
cause we anticipated an emergency
of this kind and foresaw an addi-
tional tax delinquency. However,
we did not anticipate it would be
as high as Is per cent.
1T is fortunate that we did econ
omize as much as we did, for now
we are able to go ahead without
greatly impairing the departmental
services, although it will be neces-
sary for us to postpone purchase of
equipment which is needed badly
and will have to be taken care of
later"

Pre- Cooling Of Fruits
Advised by Overholse1


The more early fruit IS picked at the
proper stage of maturity for The best
development of color and highest sub
sequent eating value, the greater the
necessity for preceding, advises DR.. e.
L. Overholser, head of the horticulture
department, State College of Washing
ton
The degree of maturity at which the
fruit can be picked and the condition
in which it arrives at it's destination
depends greatly upon it's temperature
after harvest, both before and during
transit.
Fruit when picked from the tree is
not inert or lifeless. After harvest it

THE FORGOTTEN DAM

Dreams Of huge hydro-eec development at
Priest Rapids become fainter as time goes by.
There was time when it seemed that the work
would actually be done. Then, while still pos
sbility, the probability of this work became
DINNER until now, with the Columbia Basin power
project seemingly actuality, and with the agi-
tators for power dams the lower river using all
their influence to push the development of the
Umatilla project and others, chances for power
project at Priest Rapids are very, very slim.
Priest Rapids might be called the Forgotten
Dam. The natual advantages Of a power dam at
this site are many. Unlike the Coulee dam site
there is a good foundation. Unlike the lower river
projects and the Coulee project, the cost of de-
velopment per kilowatt hour is very low. But pub
lie sentiment is with the other schemes and the
public has forgotten the advantages of power
site here
Those who would like to see some development
here, however, still have one friend Ralph Nichols,
Seattle city councilman and lobbyist, informs the
press through open letter to Senator Dill that
the money to be expended on the Coulee project
could be much better spent if used to pump water
from Priest Rapids to irrigable lands in Benton
and Franklin counties. In fact, Mr.. Nichols says
that the 100000 to be spent at the Couee could
be used to irrigate from the Spokane river, build
transmission lines to distribute cheap power from
the Skagit and Pend d. Oreille rivers, as we'll as
to further development at Priest Rapids and I'M
dertake several other projects.

continues it's ripening activities for a
variable period, according to the condi-

tissues of the fruit gradually become

This is MIRA Week. All merchants and consumers
are asked by the government to cooperate with
them in the plan to promote prosperity by
employment.
To attain business recovery will require the
unemployment Of about one fourth as many
workers as are now employed. Shrewd business
executives, small and large believe that reemploy
ment on that basis will be sound investment;
that, with the inevitable increase in buying pow
er credit will do what it always has DONE move
along with employment. In that case credit will
be available.
After relief from the horror of the last four
years. it is the recovery of economic security that
will count with the average man; the recovery of
material well-being; more lasting assurance to
the employer whose old embarrassing problems Of
cost and distribution will be solved through CO.
operation; to the worker; to the housewife, Of
whom in these last perilous years we have lost
sight entirely. This sort of recovery it is evident
the President has had in mind-recovery of what
a man has right to call his soul.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1933-08-31

Now that Washington has joined the list of
states favoring repeal of the Eighteenth Amend
ment it is a foregone conclusion that enough re-
manning states will fall in line by the first Of the
year to enable Congress to repeal the amendment
and substitute the Twenty-frst Amendment
With absolute prohibition wiped GU, it is time
for citizens of the state and nation to think
about means to promote true temperance. Local
option has been suggested, but in view Of it's
suits before prohibition, it is unlikely that this
method will be tried.
Perhaps the best means to control the sale of
liquor will be the adoption of a form similar to
the Canadian system. While it is sometimes said
that this system is not absolutely effective, still
it seems better than anything that has been tried
in this country before.

Pirates Tie Braves for Second Place With Seven-Game
Winning Streak; Boston Trails N. Y. Seven Games
After Bowling in Twin Bill.

United Press staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Sept. 2-George Gibsons Pirates are campaigning for
a crucial" series of their own with the New York Giants down at Pitts
burgh next week.
The Sorsars captured second place in the National League standing
bly, a forced march of seven straight victories while experts and fans were
concentrating on the so-cane6 crucial" series between the frst-place
Giants and the Boston Braves.
If the Pirates have struck the stride of which their roster indicates
them capable the National pennant race still holds interesting possibilities
because of the Giants loss of Johnny Vergez and the Braves loss of Randy
Moore.
Pittsburgh topped Boston by one percentage point today after beat
ing 81. Louis, ITO !, in eleven innings, Friday, while the Braves lost twice
to the Giants. This left the Pirates and Braves virtually tied at seven
