To The Board of City Commissioners
and Citizens:
Presented herewith is the Annual Report of the administrative affairs
of the City of Salina for the year 1945.
Few physical improvements have been made in the city because of the
gteater need for manpower and materials in the war effort. Although the
actual fighting of world war II was stopped in August the emergency still
existed and manpower and materials were even scarcer after the fighting
ceased than they were previously. Your city government has endeavored
to maintain essential services and give the people the maximum service pos-
sible under the existing shortages of both manpower and materials.
Much of the credit for the year's accomplishments is due to the entire
staff of city employees who have 10yally served through the emergency
period. Most of these employees could have drawn considerable more
money working in some of the war plants and army installations.
Appreciation for the cooperation of the city commission and citizens
of Salina in the efforts of the officers and employees is gratefully acknowl-
edged.
Respectfully submitted,
E. ]. ALLISON, City Manager.
City Commissioners:
During the year the members of the city commission kept in ~Iose
contact with the affairs of the city. They met informally at a luncheon and
held formal meetings once eaèh week. There was no meeting during the
year where a quorum was not - present. Various meetings were held with
different civic organizations in; the city for the purpose of discussing nu-
merous civic problems. The traffic problem was one of the major problems
discussed and the decision was made to install parking meters and again
enforce the limit parking time for downtown traffic.
In the course of the year 26 resolutions and 59 ordinances were passed
which were for the general benefit of the city. 242 licenses were issued
covering taxicabs, taxicab drivers, beer parlors, pool halls, bowling alleys, etc.
City Clerk and Director of Finance
The office of the City Clerk is the of!icial recorder of the business of
the city, custodian of the records, documents and papers of the commission
and keeper of the official seal.
As director of Finance 'the office is responsible for the accounting and
budgeting control of the city's funds. A detailed report giving the com-
plete financial statement of the affairs of. the city will follow later in the
r.-port.
Department of Fin'lnce
The City of Salina is in excellent financial condition. It finished the
year well within the budget and carried a sizeable cash balance forward
into 1946. In the belief that the present can best be served when it is no
longer necessary to pay for the past, the bonded debt has been reduced to
$233,933.28. This is the lowest the bonded debt has been for over 25 years.
During the year $99,464.73 worth of bonds were paid off. Special aSS2SS-
ment bonds were issued in the amount of $23,505.66, leaving a net reduction
of the debt of $75,959.07.
The city administration realize that, if the city is to grow and develop
as a modern city, improements must be made and improvements cannot be
made without the expenditure of money, which necessitates the issuance of
bonds. In order to hold the bonded debt to the lowest possible figure in
4
line with good progress, the administration preailed upon the state legis-
lature to pass a bill which allows the city to levy up to three mills each
year to carryon gen"ral improvements in lieu of issuing bonds. This makes
it possible for around $75,000 worth of improvements to be made each year
and paid for in cash. This method of financing will make it possible to give
the tax payer some relief from the tax burden when times are less pros-
perous. There will be no bond payments or interest to be paid on improve-
ments financed in this manner.
Department of Public Works-Engineering Division:
The Engineering Department has been under-staffed during the war
emergency period and the same situation prevailed for the past year. How-
ever, the regular inspection services were maintained and some planning
was done for the post war era.
Following is a summary of the work done:
251 surveys (preliminary and final)
44 sets of final plans completed
3 I estimated (preliminary and final)
18 specifications written
46 appraisal plats prepared
24 maps-all maps corrected and new maps drawn
40 petitions checked for adequacy.
309 permits issued for construction, such as paving cuts,
opening of excavations, curb cuts for private
drives, etc.
139 water samples taken for analysis
16 locations for water and gas lines (machine and
manual)
120 miscellaneous inspections made, and the measure-
ment of the utility service lines.
Street Department
The street department, which also takes care of the maintenance of
the sanitary and storm sewers, was greatly handicapped by shortage of
labor, material and machinery repairs, but were able to render a remark-
able amount of service as the following summarized report will show.
There were 2200 curb miles of streets swept with the mechanical sweeper,
339 miles swept by hand and 416,000 gallons of wáter was used in flushing
the streets. On the unpaved streets the patrol grader covered 625 miles,
3023 loads or 10,580 cu. yds. of dirt, cinders and gravel were hauled and
placed on the unpav¿d streets, 223 truck loads of chat were taken from car
and hauled to storage lot. 210 loads of coarse stone were hauled and stored
on lot for crushing, 32 culverts were installed and 93,000 gallons of water
was used for stabilization work.
In the repair and maintenance of the paved streets, 5803 cu. ft. of
backfill tamped in, 5862 sq. ft. of oil mat strz¿ts patched, 970 sq. ft. of
brick replaced, including 371 cu. ft. of concrete base, 230 sq. ft. of concrete
replaced, 1274 sq. ft. of asphaltic concrete replaced, 475 sq. ft. new con-
crete intersection approaches and 5492 sq. ft. of rock asphalt used in
miscellaneous patches.
Under miscellaneous items there were 142 dead animals picked up and
hauled away, 1592 loads of trash, salvage paper and tin cans, hauled off,
28 street signs replaced, 65 sq. ft. concrete walk replaced, 441 sq. h. of new
cross walks, 156 sq. yds. brick sidewalk replaced, 3 bridges redecked, 1 bridge
repaired, 2500 white brick made for street marking, 76 tons of salt and
sand distributed to melt ice, 36 miles of snow removed and hauled from the
streets. Mixed 24 tons of rock, asphalt for patching material, unloaded 68
tons of rock asphalt for patching material, pulled 150 ft. hedge, back-
filled 9000 cu. ft. of ditch, unloaded and distributed 30,000 gal. of cutback
5
asphalt, installed 204 parking meters, hauled 27 loads of sewer pipe from
Camp Phillips, unloaded 311 tons of chat, crushed 740 tons of ruble stone
for maintenance material for dirt streets.
Stabilized and armoured coated with cutback asphalt 40 blocks of city
streets, sealed to prolong the life of 33 blocks of streets paved with asphaltic
concrete.
The department rendered a number of services that cannot be measured
in loads, yards, feet or blocks, such as painting street names, no parking
zones, and parking spaces, repairing and maintaining street signs, pumping
out water holes, cleaning up after floods, servicing the flood gates, mowing
weeds, erecting and maintaining barricades, keeping dangerous places
lighted with red lanterns, etc.
19,635 lin. ft. of sanitary sewer was cleaned, one new manhole con-
structed, flush tank rebuilt, one new temporary inlet constructed, 879 catch
basins cleaned, 2076 feet of storm sewer cleaned, 4 manholes raised to
street grade. 5000 gallons of water used in flushing the sewers.
Garbage Collection and Disposal Division
The collection of garbage became necessary during the emergency
period and was started in late 1943. At no time since its inception has the
department been adequately manned-however, the services rendered have
shown steady improvement.
During the year of 1945 the garbage trucks traveled 15,478 miles, haul-
ing 7,920,000 pounds of garbage. There were 199,098 pickups made on an
average of 652 pickups per day. Three of the loadpacker type trucks are
used for collection.
In November 1945 the method of disposal was changed from open
dump to sanitiary land fill. In this method the garbage is compacted and
covered with earth. The sanitary land fill method of disposal eliminates
rats, flies, odor and the unsightly mass of decaying garbage. It is the newest
and most practical method of garbage disposal.
Sewage Disposal
The sewage disposal plant was constructed in 1926 and was designed
for the population at the time. Only a primary treatment plant was Con-
structed with the idea of later adding secondary treatment. The secondary
treatment plant has not as yet been constructed.
The State Board of Health has definitely requested that secondary
treatment be given the sewage before it is passed into the river as soon as
labor, material and equipment are available.
The plant was operated with about 100% overload during the year
and full credit is given the operator for being able to operate the plant
and keep it going in a satisfactory manner under these adverse conditions.
There are two contributory factors to the overloaded condition of the plant.
At the time it was designed the average per capita use of water was estimated
at 100 gallons per day-now the average per capita use is about 250 gallons
per day. Air conditioning has been one of' the main contributing factors to
this increase. The other factor is the growth in population since the plant
was built.
During the year a new mechanism was placed in
and it was modernized at that time to fit into a newly
one of the clarifiers
designed plant,
Building and Inspection
The activities of this division was greatly curtailed during the first part
of the year due to the shortage of building materials and priority regula-
tions, but showed considerable activity for the last few months of the year.
6
Permits were issued for 43 new dwellings at an estimated cost of ,~99,690,
67 remodeling of dwellings for $30,080. 20 new busin2Ss structures for
$180,093, 26 remodeling business buildings for $52,023, and 66 private
garages for $16,970. There was a total of 220 permits issued for an esti-
mated amount of $378,856.
11 permits were issued for erecting commercial signs. The insp2ctor
made 520 gas inspections, 300 plumbing inspections, 234 electric inspections
and 56 taxicab inspections.
Fire Department
Twenty-four hours a day, every day in the year the fire department
stands ready on instant notice to perform the vital life saving and property
saving service. The department responds to all alarms whether the trucks
can pull out of the otation with a full crew adequate to cope with any emer-
gency or only half a crew. They do their best under any condition to
protect life and property.
During the year there were 451 alarms with a total building loos of
$69,955.78, total COntents loss $175,960.36, $47,095.00 of the building
and $140,011.21 of content loss were accounted for in June when the Weber
NIill burned. The department would have had an excellent record had this
serious fire not occucred.
FIRE LOSS FOR CALENDAR YEARS
Number of Number of
Year Fire Loss Alarms Year Fire Loss Alarms
1936 $ 48,000.00 190 1941 $ 7,468.01 217
1937 6,989.46 152 1942 12,422.97 278

1940 12,791.81 262 1945 249,915.96 451
It will be noted from the above that the number of runs and the loss
have more than doubled during the war period. The department made the
most runs in its history during 1945. The loss of 1928 of .$303,655.73 is
the only year that exceeded this year's loss. The over crowded condition of
the city contributes greatly to this heavy loss by fire.
The mill fire proved conclusively that the department was badly in
need of new modern aerial ladder truck. Shortly after this fire an order
was placed for an American LaFrance 100 ft. aerial ladder truck equipped
with a 750 gallon per minute pump. Delivery was promised in 1946. The
delivery of this truck will greatly strengthen the department in dealing
with big fires in the industrial section of the city and particularly life saving.
Police Department
The maintaining of the efficiency of the police department during the
war years has been most difficult. The type of men needed for this kind of
work are just perfect for the army. The department was considerably
undermanned the first part of the year, but a few returned veterans were
available the latter part and at the close of the year the department was near
normal strength. Following is a detailed report of the activities of the de.
partment.

Park Department
This department is responsible for the maintenance and operation of
the city park system which consists of 1821/2 acres. The major portion of
the work of the park department was the maintetlance of the existing facili.
ties. No major improvements were made during the year. A considerable
number of minor improvements were accomplished but nothing outstanding.
Each of the parks have recreation facilities consisting of picnic tables, ovens
equipped with gas burners, play areas and play ground equipment £-or the
youngsters. Oakdale park has outdoor ping-pong tables, 4 shufRe board
courts, 1 roquet court equipped with lights for night playing, 4 horseshoe
8
pitching pits also lighted, 2 concrete tennis courts and 4 clay courts, a swim-
ming pool, wading pool and a play area for smell children equipped with
swings, teeters and other play equipment.
Sunset Park has 6 asphalt tennis courts and a play area for youngsters
equipped with play ¿quipment. Each Friday evening during the summer a
band concert was given at the park.
The swimming pool was quite busy for the summer. There were 33,309
adult and 12,303 children in the pool. July ZZnd showed the largest attend-
ance of 1463 with July 4 second with 1337. There were 1956 suit rentals.
The beauty of the parks was outstanding for the year and caused much
comment by visitors from other places. Cars bearing licenses from almost
every state in the union and practically every county in Kansas were observed
in the parks.
Health and Sanitation Department
The war brought a greater than ever demand for public health services
and forced home a deeper realization of the importance of health and
s"nitation. Although some key personnel were in the armed forces, con-
crete efforts were made to fully utilize the existing facilities and maintain
a high standard of public health service.
Close cooperation between the county health officer, county health
nurse, Salina Public Nursing Association, city school nurse, Saline County
Medical Association, sanitary inspection from Smoky Hill Army Airfield
and the city department of health and sanitation has made it possible to
maintain a good health and sanitary service.
One major drive against rats was carried on by the department. This
was the second drive of this natUre. Poison bait was furnished by the city
and city employees placed the bait throughout the business section and the
city dump. In the residential section city employees baited a large number
of buildings exclusive of dwellings. The bait, along with instructions as to
its use, was given to residents to be placed in their abodes. The drive was
very successful but must be continued at regular intervals to complete the
job of eradication.
The city hires the public health nurse that works with Salin:! Public
Health Nursing Association. That organization reports 1154 total patients
with 2,130 visits for the year. The state mobile X-ray unit was brought to
the city through the efforts of the T. B. Association, and 4,770 persons were
X-rayed. The tabulation of the findings show moderate advanced 8, far
advanced I, minial 8, suspicious for T. B. 94, other 16. There were 58 chil-
dren examined by the crippled children's clinic, 2 pre-natal classes held and
26 examined at the rehabilitation clinic.
During the year the following inspections were made by the city's
sanitary inspectors: grocery and meat 288, cafes 401, drug stores 87, bper
parlors 148, bakeries 13, confectionaries 16, bottling works II, poultry 28,
beer licenses for approval 35, for approval of new food permits 311, for
approval new milk p"rmits 270, applications for new permits 195, miscel-
laneous inspections 3, scales checked 94 and 295 complaints investigated.
Milk inspections were made by a representative of the State Board of
Agriculture and paid for by the city. There were 548 farm and plant in-
spections made, and 587 milk samples taken and analyzed.
Water Department
The operations of the water department was carried on last year
without any serious impairments of service. One of the electrical storms dur-
ing the summer caused the power to be off about two hours but the dis-
rupted service happened at night and no restriction had to be placed on the
9
use of water. There were 968,757,000 gallons of water pumped from the
wells or an average A 2,654,128 gallons per day which is equivalent to 8.1
acres of water one foot deep.
Two of the wells were equipped with overhead discharges and sealed
ir. compliance with request from the State Board of Health. One-half mile
of main extensions were made. There were 6258 active accounts at the be-
ginning of the year ,1nd 6296 active accounts at the close, making a net gain
of 38 customers.
During the year the last bond was retired and the water plant was
freed from indebtedness. In 1944 water rates were reduced 25 (!~. This re-
duction was continued through 1945. The water department delivers water
a' one of the lowest '"ates in the state. Funds have been conserved and there
will be adequate money available to construct a water softening plant when
materials, labor and equipment are available.
The maintenance of- the plant has been kept up during the emergency,
however, due to shortage of materials and equipment some needed replace-
ments of pumping equipment have not been made. It is planned to replace
some of the older pumps as soon as they are available on the market. The
plant can be operated even more economically with some of the newer more
ef!icient pumping units.
On demand by the State Board of Health an automatic chlorinator has
been purchased and will be in operation in early 1946. This will insure safe
water under all conditions.
The City of- Salina has the distinction of having the oldest City Clerk,
from point of service, in the State of Kansas. Charles E. Banker was ap-
pcinted City Clerk December 24, 1910, and has been on the job since that
date. In the 35 years in office he has seen many changes in the city and
remembers most of the high points in its development and growth.
In 1914 he compiled and had published the first annual report in
pamphlet form of ,he City of Salina. This was one of the first reports of
this nature to be published by any city in the S,ate of Kansas. The report
was so well taken by the public that he has issued one nearly every year
since that date.
The report gives a detailed account of the receipts and disbursements
of each department and a lot of general information that is of interest to the
public. There is a list of the Mayors, City Clerks and City Managers that
have served the city from 1870 to date.

Chapel View of Híllcrest Memorial Mausoleum
You have your choice of just two things: the grave,
or a snowy-white marble crypt. Which shall it be?
A fund for perpetual maintenance is provided, so that purchasers of
space may be sure that the building will always be well cared for, without
any additional expense to the purchasers.
GYPSUM HILL CEMETERY OF SALINA
It is unfortunate that the selection of a family plot is so generally ignored
until the hour of grief. The relatively simple task becomes a distressing
burden. Every family should be spared this ordeal by selecting the plot, and
a family memorial with the same sensible foresight and economy which
prompts us to provide insurance and to make our wills. Urge' your friends
and relatives to avoid this distressing experience by selecting the plot and
family memorial in advance. In the confusion and emotion which comes
with sorrow it is impossible to consider carefully the most desirable locations,
the probable number of interments eventually to be made, the type of memorial
to be placed on the plot, the planting that should beautify the setting and
other important factors. If your family plot has been selected under condi-
tions which made a careful study impossible, then the cemetery will readily
change the location, applying the cost of the original site to the new lot.
GYPSUM HILL CEMETERY and HILLCREST MEMORIAL MAUS-
OLEUM, are owned and under the control of the City of Salina. All receipts
collected from the sale of lots and from all sources are applied on the upkeep
and beautifying of the ground. If at any time the receipts are not sufficient,
the City must according to law, levy a tax for the support of the cemetery,
so there will always be a positive guarantee that the cemetery will be perpetual.
The lot owners have the privilege of placing any style of monument on lots
they may desire, or may build private mausoleums. The rules of the cemetery
are very liberal and are made for the benefit of the lot owners who, have a
voice in the management just the same as in any other part of the city
government.
Eventually you will want ro decide on one or the other. Why not decide
now, calmly and carefully, giving due consideration to all of the factors
involved?

TAXES
By Edgar A. Guest
When they come I don't like them at all;
Taxes look large be they ever so small.
Taxes are debts which I venture to say,
No man or woman is happy to pay.
I grumble about them as most of us do,
For it seems that with taxes I never am through.
But when I reflect on the city I love,
With its sewers below and its pavements above,
And its schools and its parks where the children may play,
I can see what I get for the money I pay.
And I say to myself: "Little joy would be known
If we kept all our money and spent it alone."
I couldn't build streets and I couldn't fight fire,
Policemen to guard us I never could hire,
A water department I couldn't maintain;
Instead of a city we'd still be a plain.
Then I look at the bill for the taxes they charge,
And I say to myself, "Well, it isn't so large."
