Dog Tao Sales In
County Bog Down
Jan. 20 Deadline
For 1850 Purchase

AS the sale of dog tags neared
the halfway mark, County Aud
itor Jack Wilson announced to-
day that sales so far have been
below normal. Auditor Wilson
said Saturday that only 242 1850
tags have been purchased by
dog owners.
Tags went on sale at the aud
itor's office on December Is. The
deadline for purchasing the 1850
tags is Friday, Jan. 20. Any dogs
found to be without a 1850 tag
after that date can be destroyed
by the county dog warden.
A check of records this week
showed the 1949 dog population
in the county to have been over
1900. This year, in anticipation
of a slight increase in the canine
population, the auditor ordered
$500 tags from Ohio Penal In
dustries.
Registration fees this year are:
males, SIPS: females, $3.75 while
kennel licenses will cost $3.50,
All dogs over three months of
age must be registered and wear
a tag.

Byesville And

Cong. Robert T. Secrest an
nounced Wednesday morning
at Washington, D. c., that
tn e postoffice department
had approved the construc-
ton of two new postoffice
buildings for the 18th dis
trict.
Cong. Secrest said the new
buildings would be erected
at Byesville in Guernsey
county and Roseville in
Muskingum county.
Both will have the same floor
size as the postoffices now To-
Gated in Caldwell, Woodsfield,

Secrest when he represented
this district in Congress before
the war.

office department in Washing

postoffice will be located in a
privately owned building.
The department has already
received three bids on the new
construction in Byesville, but
they have not yet decided
which one they will accept.
This will be announced at a later
date.
In Roseville the money has
been appropriated for the site
and preparing the full plans. 1t
is not expected that actual con-
struction will start before 1851.
Congressman Secrest said that
the Byesville building should
be ready for occupancy by the
postoffice department this year.
Dresden and Belpre just
missed receiving new buildings,
since the law requires that the
minimum annual receipts must
be $4,000 or more. Belpre
missed by $4,000 and Dresden
by $2,50O.00.

Administers Oath
To New Members

Dwight Wiley was elected
president of the new Caldwell
village council at an organiza-
tional meeting held in the city
hall Tuesday evening. Mr.. Wiley,
the only member of last years
council to seek reelection, was
elected by a unanimous vote.
The nomination of Mr.. Wiley
as president of the council was
placed on the floor by Council
man Homer Johnson. The mo-
ton was seconded by Emil Bar
nett and a roll call vote made
the election unanimous.
The first meeting of the new
body opened with the oath of
office for council members be-
ing administered by Mel Johns,
Caldwelrs newly elected mayor.
Following the swearing in cere-
monies the mayor addressed the
group with short impromptu
speech which was highlighted by
plea for cooperation and under
standing of Caldwell's needs.
A report on the financial con-
dition of village funds was made
by Clerk Violet Morgareidge
shortly after the meeting opened.
The request for the report was

March OF Dimes
Campaign Slated
To Begin Jan. l6
Rev. 0. 0. Wilson
Again Heads This
Worthwhile Drive

Rev. o. o. Wilson, chairman
of the local March of Dimes
chapter, announced today that
an organizational meeting of
county workers would be held
this week. The group will meet
at the First Methodist church on
Main street on Friday evening,
Jan. 6, at 7:30.
This year the March of Dimes
campaign will be launched on
Monday Jan. 16. The local chap
ter will bring their drive to a
close on Tuesday, Jan. 81.
The annual drive which raises
funds for the care of those
stricken with polio is one of the
outstanding community works
being carried out.
Last year the group collected
$1,410.33 during the two weeks
workers were soliciting funds.
Most of this money was retain
ed by the local chapter. The
largest contribution during the
last years drive was one for
5000 donated by a Keithtown
man who was stricken with the
disease early in life.
During 1949, the local March
of Dimes chapter was called up
on to help in aiding the county's
only two cases.
Last year, two cases were re-
ported within the county. The
youngsters, Robert James Lori
and Nancy Roberts, were both
stricken the first week in Aug
ust.
Both children are making a
favorable recovery after having
been treated at Children's hos
pital, Columbus. Miss Roberts is
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Junior Roberts, of Coal Ridge.
The Lori infant is the son of Mr..
and Mrs. Robert Lori, Sr., also
of the Coal Ridge community.

Youths Held For
School Robberies
Admit Six Others
Besides Sarahsville

Clyde Ulrey, %, and his broth
er, Raymond Ulrey, 20, both of
Dresden, who confessed last
week to breaking into the Sar-
ahsville high school and stealing
$4,000 in cash from the office of
Supt. Clarence Carter, are being
held in Columbus on a charge
of breaking into six other
schools.
A distant cousin, Louis Lay
man, 10, of New Albany, is also
being held in Columbus in con-
junction with the robberies, al
though he did not participate in
the breaking in of the Sarahs-
vile school.
Deputy Sheriff Fred Selby, of
Columbus, said some $500 was
taken in the seven robberies,
much of it in coins, but there
was nearly $500 in property
damage.
In addition to Sarahsville, the
youths admitted breaking into
schools at New Albany, Gahan-
ma, Reynoldsburg, Mifflin town
ship, Etna and Johnstown.
Raymond Ulrey was bound
over to the grand jury here in
this county which convenes on
Monday morning. Clyde Ulrey
is parolee from the reforma-
tory at Mansfield.
The three youths are being
held in Columbus on burglary
and grand larceny charges and
it is expected that final DISPOSE
ton of their case will be made
in Franklin county.
Clyde and Raymond Ulrey
were both turned over to Co
lumbus officials by Sheriff
Clayton Mckee.

jurisdiction over Noble county.
This means that the combined
contributions paid by employee
and employer on $4,000 of wages
which was $4,000 this year will
now be $4,000 for 1850.
This increase in the rate of
contributions was enacted by the
congress in 1947, Mr.. Youmans
added. The maximum amount
of wages on which contributions
apply with the same employer
during a calendar year is still
$4,000. If a worker is employed
by more than one employer dur
ing the year, each income up to
$4,000 is subject to the tax. The
worker can apply for a refund
of taxes paid on the excess of
$4,000 for the year, but the en-
ployers involved are not entitled
to any refund.
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1950-01-05

On Frid ay, however, the
board notified Auditor Will
son by mail that it would
approve the valuations on a
temporary basis.
In the letter the board stated
that although the six percent in
crease in valuation made in the
reappraisal was unsatisfactory it
was, at this late date, impossible
to hold a new reappraisal prior
to the collection of the first half
of the 1949 real estate tax.
Going further, the letter said
that, with this in mind, they
were approving rates as set up
on the new tax sheet.
At the Wednesday meeting,
the board instructed the auditor
to make the raise in a blanket
increase on all real estate or by
holding another reappraisal.
Indications at the present time
are that the 1949 reappraisal,
made at a cost of approximately
$4,000, would stand only for the
January collection of the 1949
real estate tax. Officials are ex-
pected to meet soon to iron out
these difficulties.
Some officials feel that anoth-
er 90 percent increase would be
necessary in order to get the ap-
proval of the tax board. The 1949
appraisal was made without the
issuance of bonds, although early
in the work, the commissioners
prepared to sell bonds to finance
the project.

The workers basic benefits
will not be increased because of
this increase in the contributions
rate. Any change in the benefits
must be made by action of the
congress too, Mr.. Youmans said.
For information regarding the
new tax rate or method of re-
porting, please get in touch with
your local collector of Internal
revenue. For information on So
cial security cards for workers,
benefits for retired workers as
well as for survivors of deceased

Noble County
Farmers Income
Tax Conscious
Two Important
Tax Dates Loom
During January

Noble county farmers have
two important income tax dates
with the federal government
this month. They are the fami1-
lar Jan. Is and a new one, Jan.
81.
Jan. Is is the day for filing
declarations of estimated tax and
paying that tax on 1949 income.
These estimates and payments
may be made earlier If the tax
paying farmer desires, but Jan.
Is is the final day.
However, if farmer files his
final return for 1949 and pays
the tax in full for that year on
or before Jan. 81, he is not re-
quired to make out an estimated
tax return. That is a new provi-
sion of the income tax law.
Previously farmers were re-
quired to make final returns by
Jan. Is if they wished to avoid
filing estimated tax returns.
Taxpayers other than farmers
who are required to file esti-
mates still must make a final
return by Jan. Is if they want
to avoid the work of making an
estimate otherwise due on that
date The tax law defines a far
mer as one who receives two
thirds or more of his gross in
come from farming.
There are two possible ad-
vantages in filing a final, or reg
ular, return on or before the
January dates One is the saving
of extra paper work and the 9TH
er is that taxpayers who have
refunds due them will get them
sooner than if they wait until
March Is.
If farmer does not file fin
al return by Jan. 81, he is re-
quired to make an estimated tax
return by Jan. Is and a final re-
turn on or before March Is.
Persons other than farmers in
the tax-estimate group were re-
quired to make their first esti-
mates and first quarterly pay
ments last March Is on estimat-
ed tax for 1949. No person with
an income of less than $500 dur
ing the year is required to make
either a tax estimate or regu-
lar return.
Most wage earners do not have
to make tax estimates and esti-
mated tax payments. That's be-
cause practically all of their tax
is withheld from their wages.
Wage earners file estimates
only under the following condi-
tions:
/. Their wages are not subject
to withholding tax, such as the
pay of farm laborers and domeS-
tic servants.
2. They have more than $100
income from sources other than
wages from which tax was with
held (such as room rent, divi-
dends or profits from the sale of
an auto.
3. Their 1949 wages (subject
to withholding exceeded $4500
plus $500 for each exemption
they claimed.
