Mayor Fox reports that Putin
Bay township has taxing problems
which exist in no other township
in the state. 1t consists of three
Lake Erie islands, North Bass or
Isle st. George, Middle Bass, and
South Bass or Put-in-Bay. These
islands are separated by a mile
tc mile and half of water chan
mel.
Put-in-Bay is the largest of the
islands, both in size and popula-
ton. 1t has an incorporated vii
lage with the balance of the island
under the supervision of the town
ship trustees.
The village has a fine City Hall
with large assembly hall on the
first floor, q fire station with all
fire equipment, rest rooms and CT
flee rooms. On the second floor is
the auditorium, equipped with
stage for village entertainment,
q band stand for dances, rest
rooms and a newly-installed show

year-round custodian and the city
hall is heated comfortably in the
winter months.
Eight years ago, the village
cleared it's "town hall" debts ane
from that time, the village coun.
Gil has given the building use fre,
of charge and including heat anc
lights, to civic and church organi
cations. The city hall in reality
is community center as it is il
use nearly every day and night o.
the week.
This service for the residents O.

to the taxpayers. Through tn,
council management it costs ap
proximately $4,000 annually fo
upkeep and improvements.

channels, are unable to benefi

C0RWIN HAbL|TzEL TO HEAD RED
CROSS DRIVE IN THIS COUNTY

j. G. Hitchcock, chairman Of tn,
Ottawa County Chapter of tn,
American Red Cross, announced
today that Corwin Hablitzel, Oal
Harbor, has been appointed ant
will serve as the 1949 Fund Drive
chairman for the Red Cross in OF
tawa County.
Mr.. Hitchcock, Port Clinton at.
torney serving his second year as
chairman of the local chapter asks
all to give generously with the
following statement:
AT this time of the annual Red
Cross fund campaign l feel ]
should call to mind a few facts
about 'Why give to the Red
Cross?" and what Happens to
Red Cross Funds p"
There is no reason why you
should give to the Red Cross but
there are many reasons why you
should give to your fellowmen thru
the Red Cross.
From 1881 when Clara Barton
and few loyal disciples went to
the assistance of the victims of
the Great Michigan Forest Fires
until now, "Send the Red Cross"
has been the first cry heard when
disaster or terrible accident over
takes our communities. Since the
inception of the program the Red
Cross has served at the scene of
more than 1894 catastrophes and
has expended 100000 for dis
aster relief.
The death rate from drowning
has been cut in half since the Red
Cross embarked On its water safe
ty program in 1914. First Aid
training has saved countless lives
and rendered less serious many
crippling accidents because trained
persons knew what to do before
the doctor arrived. Home nurs-
ing courses have made illness in
the family more bearable because
someone there knows what to do
and how to do it at great saving
to the family pocketbook.
Red Cross volunteers have serv-
ed as nurses aides in hospitals and
other institutions. They have SER
we'd through Motor and Canteen
Services. The sick and injured of
our Armed Forces know the Gray

plans for the proposed zoning or

Gil chambers.
George Migala and Ray Cole
man, East Third street, asked for
zoning or building regulations to
prevent people from placing tenn
porary buildings on lots and using
them for homes without proper
sanitary facilities.
Their complaint was brought
forth by a family which moved a
prefabricated building to Third
and Linden streets, placed it on
temporary foundation and made
no provision for sewage. The city
building inspector was sent to the
address and warned the owners
of city requirements.
Council decided to advertise for
bids for the purchase of new
police cruiser as the present ma
chine is in need of numerous re-

DeWard Hostrup asked that
four-way stop signs be placed

that intersection without pause
and some child will be killed some

"The Blood Program seeking to
make blood and blood products
available to every American, had
its beginning when the Augusta,
Georgia, Red Cross chapter in
1896, cooperated with local doc
tor in recruiting blood donors in
combating the high death rate in
childbirth suffered by mothers of
the community. The Blood Pro-
gram is spreading steadily. Now,
approximately 800 chapters are
participating, and in twelve
months following the opening of
the first regional center, the Amer
ican people donated over 114,000
Ipints of blood to their sick and in
jured neighbors.
During the past year a young
mother in Boston, shortly after
childbirth, developed severe
anemia and reached the point of
death. Partial transfusions were
unavailing. Finally, all of her
blood was drained and replaced
with new blood three times, using
whole blood supplied by Boston
hospitals and the Red Cross. Your
contribution of either blood or
money played a part in saving
her life.
Over half of last years budget
went as follows: Over $17000,000
worth of live-saving blood pro-
! ducts were distributed to the
American people; over $12,000,00O
was expended in disaster relief
and rehabilitation; over $9,251 900
was given in financial assistance
by chapters to tide servicemen
and veterans, and their depend
ents, over difficult emergency per-
| iods.
Most Of the remaining expendi-
lures went for the rather intan-
gible thing called training; Red
Cross Learn-to-Swim Schools; Red
Cross First Aid Classes; Red
Cross Water Safety Program; Red
Cross Nursing Classes; Red Cross
Arts and Skills classes in veter-
ans hospitals.

Until then, | won't do anything"
Mayor Becker told Collins.
Mr.. Collins replied that "it's
immaterial who made the COM
plant. All l want is the safety
committee to check the records
and see if they correspond. If
not, then it's time to take other
action"
Citizen Speaks
DeWard Hostrup, private citi-
zen who was present at the coun-
Gil meeting, asked for the floor.
"You councilmen are the laugh
ing stock of this city. If Collins
won't bring up his witness, then
he should keep quiet. This epi-
sode has been played up in the
papers until even our children
know all about it, discuss it in the
schools and laugh at you", Hos
trup told the city fathers.
Mr.. Collins replied that he was
seeking nothing from this contro-
versy, other than having the COM
plaint checked. "I'm not accusing
anyone or am / gaining any
thing, he added.
When Collins asked Mayor
Becker if he had checked the Sc
cret radio log, the mayor replied
"No, / have not checked that be-
cause it is a secret, and it is not
any of my business.
Police Chief Shelter showed the
councilmen two traffic tickets
which had been issued to Mr.. Col
Inns. One of the tickets issued
/ January 20, 194S, had been can
celled on March 3. "This was
cancelled without my permission"
Shelter stated. Collins retorted
that he had paid for lot of other
traffic fines but he didn't explain
the ticket cancellation.
AS the clock struck midnight,
the councilmen voted to drop the
whole thing" and Collins agreed.

It is not generally known that
the White House staff is composed
of some 800 persons who serve as
important cogs inthis wheel Of pro-

persons realize that one-sixth of
the White House personnel are
Negroes.
Presidents come and 60 at the
White House according to the will

faithful White House staff stays
on until age or length of service
allows them retire.
Historians can readily name
each of the Chief Executives who
have occupied the White House
from the time of John Adams in
1900 to the time Of President
Truman in 1915, but few people
are familiar with the duties and
activities of those persons who
make the famous White House
comfortable and liveable for Am
erica's No l boss.
A number of the Negroes now
employed at the White House have
been there almost a half-century.
Their experiences have been wide
and varied. Many of them have
been thrown in contact with per-
sons from every country in the
world and in every walk of life.
They have met and chatted with
every type of personality form the
aggressive business lobbyists of
America to the Dignified Crowned
Heads of Europe.
