Medical Society Fights Draft Of Dr.. Bryant

that some concrete steps had
been taken.
DR.. Stradley pointed out that
one doctor should be located in a
community for every 1000 per-
sons. Noble county, with a
population of $4,000, has only
three physicians.
Both DIR. Thompson and DR..
Stradley pointed out that this i'm
mediate area of four counties in
Southeastern Ohio needed physi-
clans and needed them badly.
However, their program was a
long ranged one in that some
young man from this community
should be selected, backed finan-
cially by the people in his efforts
to become a physician, and then
he would return to Caldwell and
the county and hang out his
shingle.
DR.. E. G. Ditch spoke briefly,
outlining the health situation in
this county as it existed 81 years
ago, during the war and the pre-
sent situation. He agreed with his
audience that an acute need
existed in this county for another
physician.

DR.. Bryant received word this

been granted and he will not be

Council Authorizes
Pay Increases For

Parking meters occupied the
majority of the hours" that were
spent by members of village
council when they met in regular
session Tuesday night, with
Mayor Homer Johnson presiding.
Bids from four companies
were opened and read. Follow
ing the reading contents of each
bid, each representative was
given an opportunity to display
his particular meter and explain
its super" operating advantages
over any other type of meter on
the market.

Parking Meter Corp, of Pitts
burgh, Pa, Dual Parking Meter
Co., of Canton, and the Magee-
Hale Park-o-Meter Co, of Okla
homa City, Okla. Bid amounts
varied according to installation
equipment and accessories.
Because of the lateness of the
hour, council members decided
to take the bids under considera-
ton and contact neighboring
communities for information on
the type of meters meeting with
the most success. President of
Council Donald D. Nichols stated
that there were facts to be con-
sidered, particularly in regard
to their public acceptance and
the service the meter will give.
Mayor Johnson will call a
special meeting next week of the
council when they win decide
and award the contract for the
purchase of ITS meters, more or
less, to be installed in the village
of Caldwell.
Present Drainage Problems

drainage of natural water and
the overflow from cesspoolS from

1t was noted in some cases the
construction was duly reported
but failed to appear on the tax
duplicate. Auditor Long proposes
to follow thru with his original
intention, that is to use the filed
copies submitted by the tax APP
praisers against the real estate
tax duplicate.
This check, with the proposed
equalization program of property
values within the county, will
undoubtedly bring to light addi-
tional new and improved con-
structions that have been omit
ted and consequently are going
tax free.
Reports were received not only
from Caldwell property owners
but from over the county as
well. The amount of missing pro-
perties reported to the auditor
the past week does not include
all the new constructions that
have yet to be added voluntarily
or remains a matter for the
county board of tax revision to
investigate and report.
Auditor Long commented that
once the present tax collection
ends and Treasurer Ira Pryor
submits his report, a list of the
delinquent lands would be pre-
pared and subsequently publish

Farm Bureau Has
Local Civic Meet
On Importance OF
State Constitution

Morris Aultman, member of
the legislative department of the
Ohio Farm Bureau, was the
principal speaker and round
table discussion leader, Tuesday
evening, when a community
meeting was held at the Hirams-
burg church.
Called by the Noble County
Farm Bureau, the meetings are
for the purpose of acquainting
Noble county farmers with the
proposed change in the state con
stitution and why they should
vote against it.
This amendment will be SUBJ
mitted to the voters in the Nov
ember election. Another local
leader of the discussion was
Edmund G. James of Caldwell,
who is well informed on the i'm
portance of this issue.
Members of the Farm Bureau
salso attended a district meeting
%Uu ILLS ouOJSSL at "OOaoA1SAA,
Monday evening and Mr.. James
was. again one of the discussion
leaders.
An active and we'll informed
member of the Farm Bureau, Mr..
James is also a candidate for
state representative from this
county in the coming primary.
According to Mr.. James,, there
is no evidence of a real demand
for general revision of the pre-
sent constitution. The matter
probably would not be seriously
discussed were it not for the fact
that the provision for an auto
matte vote this year presents an
opportunity for organizations to
campaign for it, especially from
the cities, who are after more
wv and influence.

structure is sufficient in size
to amply house the village
maintenance department and
offices of the village in addi-
ton to the fire department.
In order to provide adequate
office space, the building must
be completely renovated. The
present condition of the build
ing will reasonably house the
fire department, but it will re-
quire several months before any
thing definite can be established
in regard to actually awarding
the building and grounds to the
