Tax Cut Could Offset 2 Cent State Levy Increase
State auditor L W S Bowman said a possible offset would be reducing the general fund levy from 2 to 1 cent, potentially making the total rate 24 cents instead of 25. The 2-cent levy for state supported universities and normal schools would be included in the 1926 levy, with $500000 of the fund available starting 1929. Indiana and Purdue universities would share seven-twentieths each, while the two normal schools at Muncie and Terre Haute would get three-twentieths each.
