port at the island but ordered that
rules and regulations governing
flight operations for the entire ISL
and area, as established by the
board, be followed.
Milton Hershberger, operator Of
Air Tours, Inc. which serves the
insular area, opposed the project
at the hearings in Columbus.
Hershberger testified that another
airport at Kelleys was not pub
lie necessity and would make oper-
ations at his field hazardous.
Several Kelleys Island residents
testified that q municipal airport
was needed as they said existing

Complications may arise due to

er stated that flights by other in
terests might make trips to the

implied that he might be forced
to stop flights to kelleys if the

RED CROSS SETS RECORD IN AID
DURING DOMESTIC DISASTERS

WASHINGTON, d. C. - The
American Red Cross gave assist
ance in more domestic disasters in
the last two fiscal years than in
any comparable period in its 81
year history, President Basil o.
Connor announced today.
In 619 disasters during the "a
month period, total of $16,852,-
300 was expended by the Red
Cross, he reported. In the 1947-
48 fiscal year July 1-June 30),
relief and rehabilitation in 303
disasters involved the expenditure
of $12,171,O22. In the previous
year, involving 316 catastrophes,
the amount was $4,6S1 ,287.
Since the American Red Cross
was founded in 1881, the organi-
zation has served in 1854 domes-
tic disasters in which it spent
$139,000,000.
"The Red Cross now is better
able than ever before to cope with
catastrophe" Mr.. O'Connor said.
Utilizing community leaders
through out the country, the Red
Cross through it's 3,739 domestic
chapters, is prepared to assist
communities in warning, rescue,
and evacuation, and to provide
medical and nursing aid, food,
shelter, clothing, and registration
and information service"
Mr.. O'Connor also cited the de-
velopment of blood program
which will eventually insure a re-
serve of blood for use in emer-
gencies; a system of rapid radio
communication soon to be placed
in operation; the ability of the or
ganization to mobilize large num-
bers of civilian nurses; and a basic
operating structure through which
thousands Of persons can be fed
and housed in time of disaster.
Indicative of the number of
nurses which can be recruited by
the Red Cross is the fact 1921
nurses served a total of 1918
days in rs disaster operations in
;he last fiscal year. These were
exclusive of the 1,54S nurses re-
cruited by the organization for
duty in poli-stricken areas Janu-
ary 1, 1947, to October /, 1948,
the American Red Cross Presi-
dent said.
One Of the most important as
poets of the Red Cross disaster
relief is the organizations Ma
tional Blood Program which began
operations last January with the
opening of the first regional blood
center at Rochester, N. Y, Mr.
Ottawa County news. (Port Clinton, Ohio) 1931-1956, 1949-01-14

O'Connor explained. He added
that 371 chapters are now included
in the program.
The Importance OF blood re-
serves in such disasters as the
Texas City explosion last year, and
particularly in event of any fu-
ture enemy attack on this country
is emphasized by recent state
ments of medical authorities.
DR.. George M. Lyon, civil de-
fense advisor on Pathological safe
ty, has said that whole blood in
sufficient amounts is the "most inn
portant therapeutic need for the
prevention of loss of life" among
victims of atomic attack. Approx
imately 100000 units of whole
blood would be. required during
each of the first three weeks fol-
lowing such attack, he stated, pro-
vided attacks were carried out
simultaneously at a number of
different points.
"Without a basic nationwide
plan, medical relief including the
benefit of blood and blood deriva-
tives cannot be provided satisfac-
torily," he said.
Because of it's experience dur
ing the war and it's current ex-
panding National Blood Program,
the Red Cross is considered by
health defense as well as many
medical authorities, as the prob
able answer to the problem of
collecting blood. During the war
the agency collected 13,326,242
blood donations for the armed
forces.
The Red Cross is further step
ping up the efficiency of its Dis
aster Service through the pool
ing of government and amateur
radio facilities into a close-knit
communications system.

Farmers Must
File New Form

Ohio farmers, busy making out
their 194S income tax returns, are
finding that there are at least
three major changes which affect
how they fill out their forms and
how much tax they must pay.
According to the new income tax
law, says Guy w. Miller, Exten-
sion farm management specialist
at Ohio State University, individ
ual income taxes are reduced
through percentage reductions and
increased exemptions.
' This year, for the first time,
husbands and wives may divide
their combined income equally for
filing joint tax returns. The new
legislation does not change, in any
way, however, the method of COM
putting net profits, Mr.. Miller ex-
plains.
Dividing incomes equally gives
farmers and their wives chance
to compute the amount of tax due
at lower surtaX rates. The divided
income may be used only by per-
sons filing joint returns, but Mr..
Miller believes joint returns are
usually best even though the tax
payers have had high medical bills
or other unusual expenses.
Farmers whose business year
starts January l, have until Janu-
arl Is to file their returns or an
estimate of the tax to be paid. The
amount of the estimate must be
paid by January Is, if that method
is used.
Two copies of all of the forms
needed may be obtained at a post
office or bank or from the Collec-
tor of Internal Revenue. One copy
is for the taxpayer to keep for his
records, and it is good business to
keep copy of all returns filed, he
adds.

COUNTY NATIVE
n A med STATE
HEAD
Governor Lausche and Direc-
tor Fleckner Promise Fight
Against Gambling Interests

! Ottawa County residents lat,
last week were pleased to learr
that a native of Oak Harbor, Os-
car l.. Fleckner, 80 had been nam.
ed as Ohio LiCnor Director ir
Governor Frank j. Lausche's cabi,
net.
Fleckner, who has served as city
manager OF Springfield since June
l6, 1947, is a second cousin of for
mer state Representative William
l.. Fleckner, also of Oak Harbor.
Their politics differ, however.
The new state liquor director,
who has a reputation as a racket
buster, is the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Oscar Fleckner. His grandfather
years ago owned the old Fleckner
rooming house and saloon near the
Wheeling and Lake Erie tracks
in Oak Harbor. His father pass
ed away several years ago, and his
mother now resides in North Bal
timore.
Fleckner has resigned as Spring
field city manager and began his
liquor director position Monday.
The post pays $4,000 year and is
the hottest spot in the state ad~
ministration.
In recognizing the headaches
caused by the liquor department
in former years, Governor Lausche
instructed Mr.. Fleckner to relent-
lcssly prosecute Niolators Of the IL
QUO; laws.
Lausche said he selected Fleck-
ner because he has the reputation
of being a tough racket buster and
because he has the business ex-
perience to operate the multi-mil
lion dollar state liquor business.
That Lauscho and Fleckner will
crack down on violations is evi-
dent from Lausche's statement
that no gambling or other vices
will be tolerated in any place
where liquor is sold. "There will
he no political favor or discrimina-
ton tolerated by my administra-
tion,' Governor Lausche added.
A graduate of North Baltimore
high school and Ohio Northern
University, Atty. Fleckner receiv-
ed his law degree at the Univer
sity Of Cincinnati. He is married
and has two sons, Oscar, 8, and
Douglas, 6.
In 1884, Mr.. Fleckner joined the
state service as an examiner for
the state securities division. In
1887, Fleckner became attorney
general for the division, which po-
sition he held until Jan. /, 1912.
During the war he served as an
executive officer in the Navy and
was stationed in the Hawaiian ISL
ands until 1916 when he re-entered
private practice.
