To The Board of Commissioners and
Citizens of Salina, Kansas:
Presented herewith is the Annual Report of the administrative affairs of
the City of Salina for the year 1946.
During our first post -war year essential governmental services have been
improved and in spite of the manpower and material shortages, a reasonable
amount of improvements of a general nature has been accomplished. We
regret that we have been unable to comply with all the requests we have re-
ceived for improvements of various types, but acute shortages of both material
and manpower, and high prices, have caused curtailment of some construction.
Your attention is directed to the fine cooperative spirit and loyalty which
exists among the employees of the city. Very little could have been accomplish-
ed had it not been for the capable manner in which these employees have dis-
patched their respective duties.
Appreciation for the cooperation of the City Commission and the
citizens of Salina is gratefully acknowledged.
Respectfully submitted,
E. J. ALLISON, City Manager
City Commissioners:
The city commission as the legislative and policy forming body and the
elected representative of the people have conscientiously tried to interpret
the best interests of the general public into the ordinances passed and the
policies formed during the year. They met informally at noon each Monday
to discuss and study the problems of the city so they would be thoroughly
familiar with items to come up at their evening meeting and be in a position to
give important matters some study before they had to take formal action in the
regular evening meeting.
The commission worked in a cooperative way with all organizations of
the city on matters pertaining to the general welfare of the public and gave all
subjects and problems brought before it serious consideration and endeavored
to pass proper ordinances or es'ablish sound policies relative to all needs of the
city called to their attention.
They met in regular session each Monday evening during the vear and
gave willingly of their valuable time for the general well being of their con-
stituents. In the couse of the year 63 resolutions and 1 19 ordinances were pass-
ed. 294 licenses were issued covering taxicabs, taxicab drivers, beer parlors,
Pool halls, bowling alleys, etc.
City Clerk:
As official recorder the City .Clerk has processed all documents and papers
filed in his office and called those to be acted upon by the various city officials
to their attention. As clerk of the Board of Commissioners he has attended and
recorded the proceedings of all the meetings of the commission and issued all
licenses granted by said board.
Department of Finance:
The Department of Finance is under the supervision of the City Clerk.
During the year special assessment bonds were issued in the amount of
$59,973.78. Bonds retired during the year amounted to $73,273.20 which
leaves a total bonded indebtedness of $220,633.86, or a reduction of $13,299.42
in outstanding bonds. This was the first year the city had a chance to utilize the
law allowing them to levy up to three mills per year to finance improvements.
All the money raised from the 1946 levy was spent on the storm sewer in the
north section of the city. A continued effort is being made by the administra-
tion to carry on a sizable improvement program while holding the bonded debt
as low as possible.
The city finished the year within the budget and carried a large cash
balance forward into 1947.
Department of Public Works — Engineering Division:
The Engineering Department is still understaffed and have had difficulty
preparing plans for the construction work under way, along with their regular
inspection services.
Following is a summary of the work accomplished:
98 surveys (preliminary and final)
51 sets final plans completed
26 estimates (Preliminary and final)
18 specifications written
68 appraisal plats prepared
77 petitions checked for adequacy
36 water samples taken for analysis
22 locations for water and gas line (machine and manual)
320 miscellaneous inspections made, and the measurements of
utility lines
535 permits issued for construction, such as paving cuts, excavation
and curb cuts for private drives.
During the year there were constructed:
35 blocks of storm sewer
27 blocks of sanitary sewer
14 blocks of curb and gutter
3 blocks of alley paving
3 sluice gates for flood protection
2 prefabricated airport hangers
1 chlorinator installed
The total amount of the improvement for which plans and engineering
supervision were provided amounted to $170,337.20.
Street Department Division:
Thy Street Department under the Street Superintendent is responsible
for the maintenance, cleaning and draining of all the streets in the city along
with the maintenance of the sanitary and storm sewers. This department was
greatly handicapped by a shortage of help during the year but were able to
render e-ccellent service to the general public as summarized in the following
report.
The mechanical sweeper cleaned 3083 curb miles of pavement. 121 curb
miles were hand swept. There were 1814 loads of 5442 cubic yards of sweep-
ings hauled from the streets. 477,000 gallons of water was used in flushing and
sprinkling the streets. 14 loads of salt was spread on icy streets and 75 loads of
snow was removed.
The power patrols covered 514 miles of unpaved streets. 2511 cubic yards
of cinders, 180 cubic yards of gravel, 696 cubic yards of crushed stone, 330
cubic yards of chat, and 6525 cubic yards of dirt were hauled and placed on
the dirt streets. There were 39 crossing culverts installed and 75,000 gallons
of water used to stabalize the earth fills.
The pavement repairs consisted of 12,243 cubic feet tamped backfill,
11,234 square feet rock asphalt patches, 1468 square feet concrete patches,
3185 square feet brick pavement patched, 3417 square feet asphalt pavement
patched, 128 feet of curb and gutter run and 1600 pounds of asp'_ialt used in
sealing cracks.
The department unloaded from railway cars 282 tons of crushed rock,
52 tons of rock asphalt, 534 tons of Joplin flint and 175 tons of structural and
reinforcing steel.
17,035 lineal feet of sanitary sewer, 398 catch basins and inlets and 4190
lineal feet of storm sewers were cleaned. 6 manholes were raised, 3 new inlets
constructed, 45 feet of new inlets pipe placed and the Dry Creek storm sewer
extended 100 feet. 894 feet of 8" sewer were laid, 4 new manholes constructed
and 3455 feet of backfill placed in water main ditches.
1662 loads of trash were hauled, 122 loads of salvage paper picked up and
disposed of, 3798 cubic yards of earth hauled for the sanitary landfill, re-
moved and hauled away 140 dead animals, installed 245 street signs, replaced
312 square feet of concrete crosswalks, mud jacked 105 feet of curb and
gutter and removed 27 dead trees from the parkings.
Materials used in sealing the oil mat streets consisted of 1479 cubic yards
of gravel, 582 cubic yards of crushed rock, 393 cubic yards of chat and 49,190
gallons of cutback asphalt.
Extensive repairs were made to the Elm Street, Ash Street and Kenwood
bridge. The ball field was rehabilitated after standing idle for a number of
years and a large number of miscellaneous items too numerous to mention
were performed by the department during the year.
Garbage Collection and Disposal Division:
The service rendered by this department was somewhat improved during
the year due to our being able to hire some additional help. The following
report will reveal that a valuable service was rendered.
During the year the trucks travelled 14,900 miles making 224,350 pick-
ups of 8,604,000 pounds of garbage. This was all deposited, compacted and
covered with earth in what is known as a sanitary land fill.
Sewage Disposal:
The sewage disposal plant, although running at 100% overload, has
performed during the year with no serious mechanical difficulties. The affluent
turned out at the plant has been as good as could be expected considering the
overload. The plant operator deserves considerable credit for the operation of
toe plant in the most efficient manner.
Building and Inspection:
There was quite a spurt in the construction of buildings. There were a
larger number of permits issued for more money than in any year for over 20
years. The following report gives the number of permits and the amount of
the improvements:
206 new dwelling permits for $ 700,465.00
135 remodel dwelling permits for ... ...... ...... 171,115.00
49 new business permits for... . ..... 513,945.00
............
24 remodel business permits for.
90 private garage permits for ... 25,410.00
504 Total permits issued... $1,491,745.00
The only year since 1926 that even approached this figure was
$1,147,602.00 in 1929.
During the year there were 620 plumbing inspections, 557 electric in-
spections, 687 gas inspections and 60 taxicab inspections made, along with 57
sign permits issued.
Fire Department:
For the first time since 1941 we were able to bring the fire department up
to near full strength in regard to manpower. One of the old pumps was rebuilt
into a first class fire fighting piece of equipment and the department was able
to cope with the demon fire on a much more even basis than anytime in the
last five years. If existing plans can be followed through the department will
rank with any fire department in the State of Kansas in regard to equipment in
the early part of 1947.
During the year there were 463 alarms, with a total building loss of
$39,274.29, total contents loss of $38,369.83, making a total loss of $79,324.70.
For comparison the following table of fire losses is given:

1946 463.......... 79,324.70
It was anticipated that the 100 ft. aerial ladder truck with a 750 gallon
per minute pumper mounted, would be delivered during 1946. Due to labor
and material trouble this piece of equipment was not delivered, but is promised
for 1947 delivery.
The members of the fire department are trained in life saving and have
an iron lung and a resuscitator available for use whenever needed.
The City Fire Inspector put in a busy year and all business houses were
inspected. Due to the big loss over the country in life and property caused by
hotel fires, special emphasis has been placed on strict inspection of the local
hotels. Wonderful cooperation has been given by the hotel management.
Police Department:
The efficiency of the Police Department was greatly improved during the
year by an increase in personnel. The department was near full strength by the
close of the year. A number of returned veterans were placed in training
which greatly strengthened the manpower situation. The departmment was
not up to full strength but was of sufficient size to better handle the business
of the department.
The volume of business was greatly increased, more law violators were
arrested than any other year in the history of the department. Following is a
de-ailed report of the activities of the department:

which 7685 were made in 1946 or 15.91/(.
Park Department:
The major portion of the work in the parks consisted of routine main-
tenance and operation work such as repair, painting and rehabilitation equip-
ment and facilities, mowing grass, cultivating, planting and fertilizing flower
beds, trimming trees, servicing the picnic areas, maintaining the schuffle
board, tennis and toque courts, maintaining gravel walks, planting trees and
shrubs and picking up paper, trash and garbage. Experimentations were
carried on with various types of 2 -4D weed killer and a new Royer shredder
was received so fertilizer from the disposal plant could be utilized. Several tons
of fertilizer were produced and spread in all of the parks.
New improvements included a new brick concession building and one new
lighted toque court in Oakdale park, 950 feet of 5' sidewalk at Sunset Park.
New concrete block dugouts at the ball field, along with the rehabilitating of
the base ball field and grand stand.
The resumption of organized base ball brought thousands of additional
people to the parks.
The swimming pool had a very successful season, there being 27,879
adults and 12,191 children in the pool. The pool was closed August 13 because
of the infantile paralysis epidemic.
The parks were operated for the general benefit and pleasure of the
people and were kept in the same beautiful manner for which they are noted
Thousands of people from all parts of the country visited our parks as well
as most of our local citizens. The park employees are on duty at all times to
assist and help people enjoy our parks.
Health and Sanitation Department:
The ending of the war greatly strengthened the facilities of the Health
and Sanitary Department by the return of the director to the job who acts as
chief sanitarian and city chemist.
Another rat eradication program was carried on by the department and
experimentation was carried on with DDT spray for the control of flies and
other insects. The results of the experiments were good and it is felt that next
year the city will be in a position to launch an extensive program of fly and
insect control.
The Salina Public Health Nursing Association, under the direction of the
City Health Nurse, carried on an excellent program. Following is a report of

vote at any general election, his or her name must be dropped from
the list of registered voters; or if the voter removes from the house
or street number from which he or she may have registered, he or
she must personally appear before the city clerk and be reregister -

Chapel View of Hillcrest 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 to decide on one or the other. Why not decide
now, calmly and carefully, giving dt:e 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."
