Sewer Rental May
Have Opposition

RumorS that could not be con-
firmed we're prevalent through
out the city this week that a
movement was underway to block
Port Clinton's recently enacted
sewage rental ordinance, which
takes effect Jan. l.
City officials, in off-the'record
conversations, discounted the rI-
NOR talk and pointed out that
three readings on the ordinance
had been held, that it had been
considered at four meetings, and
on none O! the occasions had any
opposition appeared.
It was further pointed out that
the ordinance had been under
consideration for more than q
year and at no time had there
been an expressed opposition.
Rumors making the rounds indi
Gated that effort would be made
to initiate referendum on the
issue. Normally signatures of IL
per cent of the voters in the last
general election are required to
initiate a referendum. but th;.
rumor was discounted by doubt
expressed in the opinion of sew
eral officials that taxation ordi
nances were subject to referen
dunn.

GROUP NAMED TO
LAUNCH STUDY
OF WARD CHANGE
Precinct Status Must Be
Changed When Port Clin-
ton Becomes City

A committee on political sub
division was appointed by Mayor
Carl Becker Tuesday night to
launch an immediate study of the
problem of dividing the city into
four wards.
Named to serve on the COM
mittee were Solicitor John l.
Reinheimer, William Crohen, city
waterworks superintendent; coun-
Gilman Torvald Hostrup, Dan
Griffin, former councilman and
local businessman, and the mayor
himself.
The committee was formed
after Solicitor Reinheimer called
councils attention to the fact
that the Ohio law provides that
council must divide the city into
four wards, although he pointed
out that this cannot be done Of
ficially until Port Clinton has
been declared a city.
He warned, however, that coun.
Gil should be prepared to act be-
cause the primary election will
be in May and prospective can
didates for ward seats on council
would need to know considerably
in advance of the primary the
geographical division of the city
by wards.
Mr.. Reinheimer pointed out
that because the city now has sis
precincts, and inasmuch as foul
wards will be designated, that il
would be desirable to work out
a solution to the problem joint
ly with the County Board of Elec
tions.
Officially, however, counci
can't act until the city is desig
mated as such by proclamation
from the Secretary of State.
Mr.. Reinheimer also suggest
ed that members of council give
some consideration to the sched
ule of compensation for elected
officials under the new set-up.

KOREA VETERAN
ARRIVES AT EOD
Major Blackwell Was Based
At Pyongyang During
Recent Service

Soldiers in Korea feel they arc
doing a job for the world instead
of just one particular nation.
They feel this is a war for the
United Nations, and that it is
being fought so that the United
Nations may be in position to
be of value to people of all coun-
tries.
If this aggression can be held
down. they feel all the sweat
blood, cold and misery will be
worth it.
These are the opinions of Maj.
John r. Blackwell who arrived
for assignment at Erie Ordnance
Depot recently following three
months of fighting in Korea. He
is the first officer or enlisted man
with Korean experience to be sta
toned at Erie.
Maj. Blackwell left last August
with the 4th Ordnance Battalion
from Fort Knox, KY. This group
landed ir Pusan and furnished
maintenance on vehicles. trucks,
tanks. guns. and small arms, and
supply support for the First Corps
units. including the oath Division
and the First Cavalry, as they
marched up the peninsula.
He was based at Pyongyang
when he was given emergency
leave because of the critical i'll
ness of his four-year-old daughter
and during this leave in the
States, he received word of his
promotion to his present grade,
and his assignment to Erie.
Oddly enough, this is Mai.

AIRPORT HIT BY.
WITHDRAWAL. OF
FEDERAL FUNDS
Budget Reduction Forces Cut
After Renovation Plans
Neared Completion

Port Clinton's municipal air
port improvement progra n.
struck a new snag this week
when George w. Vest, regional
administrator of the Civil Aero
nautics Authority, notified Mayor
Carl Becker of the withdrawal of
a tentative ALLEGATION of $29, 500
Of federal funds.
Mayor Becker said that the ac-
ton was a terrible blow to the
airport program inasmuch as
plans and specifications had been
considered to be satisfactorily
completed.
A ray of hope appeared in 4
letter received from E. H. SEQ.
field, district CAA airport engi
neer of Columbus. Mr.. ScofielJ
wrote that "even in view of this
present withdrawal of the ten
tativc ALLEGATION, we are still hop
ing that the title difficulties may
he cleared or re-allocation made
and the project proceed"
"The only obstacles remaining
to our knowledge, are the encum
brances to the property by the u
S. Gypsum Co., the Certainteed
Products Co., and the revision oi
the operating agreement with
Mr.. Hershberger of Air Tours
Incorporated"
Mr.. Vest, in his notification let
ter. said that Ordinarily the ten
tative ALLEGATION of S29.5O0 would
be re-issued; however, since the
Bureau of the Budget, acting in
accordance with Congressional
directives, reduced the funds
available under the Federal Air
port Act by approximately 40 pei
cent it is not possible to reissue
this tentative ALLEGATION"
City Councils plans for new
lighting in the council room and
in the mayors office were tenn
porarily delayed Tuesday night
when the matter was referred to
the building committee compris
ed of Councilmen Nielsen, Goebel
and Puddock for further study.
