REA Closes Shop
In Noble County

The rural electrification of Noble
county is completed. The project,
which has meant so much to the
farmers of this county, the back
bone of Caldwell and Noble county,
is being brought to a close this week,
with only the finishing touches re-
naming.
The Lane Kingery company, with
offices in the IOOF building, has
been in charge of furnishing cleo
tricity to the farmers Richard New
ton is their director and he stated
today that he would remain in Cald-
well for at least a month.
He did not know whether their
next project would be in Kentucky
or Indiana.
All but eight men have been laid
off this project and they are to
complete their duties this week.
The former William Musser prop
erty, now owned by Mr.. Newton,
was purchased Monday by the
Noble county commissioners for
Gerald Ramsey, coach of the local
high school, in their cooperative
gesture to find a place for him to
live. A veteran of World War II,
this action assures his return for
another year.

Noble County Again Falls Behind In Sale
OF Delinquent Lands. Despite State Laws

One of the many bills which
passed the Ohio General Assembly
was S. B. No. 272, sponsored by
Brooks, Hamilton county and rela-
tive to the sale of forfeited land
sales. 1t is as follows:
'Relative the listing and sale of
forfeited lands, amends Section 5751
by striking out the provision that
published notice of failure to pay
taxes, etc, due on forfeited lands, if
not paid before the 18th day of Jan
uary of each year. The law as
amended provides that the adver-
tisement shall take place if the taxes
have not been paid when the aud
itor fixes the date of his annual sale.
This amendment was proposed in
order to extend the time for pay
ment beyond January Is. The law
still requires the auditor to publish
the list of forfeited lands annually.
(This practice is now being followed
in every county except Noble.) This
change in the law was sponsored by
the Auditors Association and sup
ported by the State Department of
Taxation. The bill passed both
Houses and is now before the Gov
ernor."
The first and only delinquent land
sale in Noble county since 1910 was
held in May, 1946, more than year
ago, when only the real estate was
sold. The oil, gas and coal lands
were advertised at the same time
and could be sold but a search of the
records reveals that no action has
been taken by local officials.
The farmers in Noble county,
headed by the individual farm bur-
eau councils, again plan to wage a
fight against the laxity of local
courthouse officials and it is under
stood that they are going to force
the sale of delinquent lands here
every year, when and as it should
be according to law.

County Commissioners
Buy Home For Veteran

Under the veterans housing pro.
gram in the state of Ohio, in which
Noble county was given the nod for
$12,500.00, Gerald Ramsey, coach for
the Caldwell high school and a vet
eran of World War II, was given the
first break.
Monday, the Noble county com
misSioners, purchased the former
William Musser property on Belford
street from Richard Newton, head OF
the Lane Kingery REA company
here. The consideration was $5500
Ramsey was without a home in
Caldwell this fall and it is under
stood had planned to resign.
The commissioners have had this
$12,50000 veterans money for over
year but had never taken any
action until Monday.
Any veteran in Noble county is
entitled to this same break and if
tortured by a housing problem,
should make an application to the
commissioners.
The commissioners still have
$1,000 to go and the veterans should
make the best of it.

BIS Parolee
Has Officials
On The Run
Stanley Webb Finally
Taken Into Custody,
Sent To Lancaster

Stanley Webb, who is only Is
years old, is back at the Boys In
duStrial School at Lancaster, after
violating his parole condition, eS-
Gaping from the Noble county jail,
and then giving Sheriff Clayton Nc
Kee foot race before he was final
ly caught and returned to Lancaster.
Webb had been paroled to the
custody of Bunk Matheny at Belle
Valley but evidently didn't like the
routine and decided to take French
leave.
Sheriff Mckee was notified and
finally found the boy, hiding in the
rear of local theatre. He was wear
ing a brown suit and brown shoes,
which led to his Identification.
He was taken to the Jail but un-
daunted, the young culprit, who
normally would be no more than
a sophomore in any high school,
made his escape through a hole in
the brick wall.
1t will be remembered that Wilson
Hill and Edgar L. Fenton partially
hued this hole through the wall
before they were removed to the
Ohio State penitentiary to begin
serving a l to 10 years sentence for
automobile thefts.
Officials were of the opinion that
it had been sealed tight enough to
prevent another break but they had
not figured on Webb, his agility or
smallnesS of stature.
He removed the bricks from the
once weakened wall, crawled
through the extremely small hole
in the wall and then let himself
down to the ground with the aid of
sheet.
Webb started south on u S. route
81 but caught ride only to Dudley,
where the officials caught up with
him. He ran across a field adjacent
to the highway but "Jum" Mckee
entered into the foot race and the
young man didn't have a chance.
The story, which had a good be-
ginning, has the usual ending for
those involved in crime and Thurs
day, Webb once more became an in
mate of the BIS in Lancaster.
The hole, through which he made
his escape, has again been "bricked
up"

Ordnance Against
Use OF FireCraCkerS

Mayor Sam Secrest pointed out
today that the village of Caldwell
has an ordnance against the shoot
ing off of firecrackers within the
corporation and officials plan to see
that it is strictly enforced.
Although it is yet two weeks until
the national holiday, Mayor Secrest
has already received complaints,
relative to the early shooting of
fireworks.
The ordnance will be strictly en-
forced in every sense of the word
and parents are being cautioned to
keep this in mind.
This does not affect the planned
fireworks display in Caldwell on
July 4, since it will be adequately
supervised and not dangerous to
children.

COnServanCy District
Hands Down Decision

The Muskingum Watershed con-
servancy district, with headquarters
in New Philadelphia, handed down
their legal decision today in the
matter of the filing of objections by
the Noble county commissioners to
the assessment of $24,36029, in
creating Seneca Lake as a recrea-
tional center.
The legal opinion was received
Monday by Prosecuting Attorney
Leo E. Carter and filed in the Com
mon Pleas court. There was only
one dissenting vote and that was
cast by Judge L. B. Frazier, who oc-
cupies the bench in Noble county
Common Pleas court Over-ruling of
the objection was signed by the re-
naming "a judges.
In part, it reads as follows: F"That
the objections and exceptions filed
by the commissioners of Noble coun-
ty to said appraisals are not well
taken and should be over-ruled and
that no other objections or excep-
tionS were filed to said appraisal.
'"That the basic methods employed
in making appraisals are reasonable
and equitable and were uniformly
applied.
THAT the estimated cost of con-
Structing the improvements contem-
plated in the general plan is less
than the benefits appraised"
This essentially means that al
though taxed in the amount of $24,-
360.20, it is not likely that the coun-
ty will ever actually pay the money.
