Five Seek
SH-YearPostson on
Supreme Court

Three judges of the Ohio Su-
preme Court are to be elected in
November, two for regular six
year terms and one for the little
more than four years remaining
of the unexpired term of the late
Supreme Court Judge Gilbert
Bettman, Cincinnati, who died re-
Gently.
Nominations will be made at
the Aug. II primary elections,
however, only for the two six
year terms, because the vacancy
caused by Judge Bettman's death
occurred too near the date of the
primaries for candidates to quail
fly.
Candidates for the unexpired
term, therefore, will have to get
their names on the November
election ballot by petition, with
approximately $4,000 signatures
necessary to qualify.
Judge Edward C. Turner, Co.
lumbus, and Judge Roy H. Will
Jams, Sandusky, both Republicans
whose terms expire in January,
are both candidates for renomin-
alton for the six-year terms at
the primaries.
Judge Turner is unopposed for
the nomination for the term COM
mencing Jan. 2. Judge Guy B.
Findley, Elyria, judge of the Lo-
rain County Common Pleas Court
is opposing Judge Williams for
the nomination for the Jan. l
term.
On the Democratic primary tic
ket, former Judge William G.
Dixon, Cleveland, who served a
seven-weeks short term on the
Supreme Court in 1888 and was
state poor relief director for
time during the Davey admins
tration, is unopposed for nomin-
alton for the Jan. term.
Willis w. Metcalf, Columbus,
former assistant attorney general
assigned to the Public Utilities
Commission, is unopposed for the
Democratic nomination for the
Jan. 2 term.
Salary of Supreme Court judg-
es is $4,000 a year. The court
is in regular session from late

Taxpayers Advised
Not To Delay

A lot of dollars still must roll
into the strong box of the county
treasurer's office before the tax
books close Sept. 10 on the June
collection.
Less than half of the nearly
$500,000 to be collected has been
paid in, County Treasurer Aurel
E. Coffman, has announced. The
wax collections to date amount to
$172,763.87, Coffman said.
He urged taxpayers to pay
promptly to avoid delays when
the treasurer's office is crowded
in the last week of the collec-
tion period. No extension of
time beyond the Sept. 10 date
will be made, Coffman said. This
is an unusually late date for
closing the books.
Coffman also said that sales
tax receipts for the month of
July, up to the close of business
July "a were $17,278.93.
He also directed attention to
the fact that defense stamps
may be purchased in his office.
The office is open from $3.50
a. m. to 4:30 p. M, except Satur-
day when the office closes at
noon in compliance with the
state law.

Heartening

Newark's response to the
"Retailers for Victory"
campaign, now underway in
local stores, restaurants and
hotels, furnishes more evil
dence that this city can and
will perform any war task
to which it is assigned.
In the buying of War

not get the idea that we are

Rather, it is a sound invest
ment with a reasonable rate

chaser. It's a chance to help

it.

HOW To-
Get In The Scrap
SALVAGE 1T!
Bus Depot

Since the announcement
was released of the new I'm
ion Bus Terminal being con-
structed by the City Rapid
Transit company in East
street, numerous
comments have been heard
to the effect "it would be a
great thing if all the city
bus lines would start out
and stop there also"
Inquiry reveals that it is
thought by many an arrang-
ment of this kind would be
of much benefit to the citi-
zens of Newark.
For instance, the termin-
al being only one half block
from the square would give
shoppers a chance to rest in
the spacious waiting room
while waiting for their
transportation home. 1t
would also protect bus rid
ers in inclement weather.
To those riders who have
stood for Is minutes to a
half hour waiting for a bus
when trains delayed service
on the east and west run,
during below zero weather
and in the rain, the idea
, seems more than acceptable.
The bus drivers themselv-
es would have a place to wait
when changing shifts. All
transportation would be di-
rected toward one point af-
fording untold benefits to all
customers.
Travellers arriving or leav-
ing the city would have ac-
cess to a comfortable wait
ing room direct to and from
the bus to all parts of the
city.
Last, but not least by any
means, a tremendous amount
of parking space would be
left free to automobile own
GERS, relieving to a great de-
gree the ever troublesome
parking problem.
. The foregoing, in it's en-
tirety, is something bus ri
ders in Newark, the city
council, and the City Rapid
Transit Lines, to ponder We
ry seriously.
In fact, the new site
should be made a truly un-
ion bus depot.
