East Cleveland's high geared
"Get out the Vote" campaign will
roll to flying finish Tuesday
November 4th.
Long before many folks are up
the Hi-Y boys and their dates will
be posting the "Vote Today" signs
all over town. The signs are pro-
vided by the Public Affairs Com
mittee of East Cleveland Kiwanis
Club. Following their tramping
about town, the young election
volunteers will be served a sub
stantial breakfast at the Y house
and be back at Shaw High School
in time for regular classes.
All day long, telephones will be
ringing as The League of Women
Voters carry their concentrated
telephone campaign up to within
minutes of booth closing time.
Each call not only reminds regis
tered voters of the Constitutional
Convention proposal-chief object
of the League-but also reminds
every voter to vote.
Mobilized for the greatest COM
munity effort in it's history, more
than 10000 Scouts of the Greater
Cleveland Council, Boy Scouts of
America, will blanket Cuyahoga
County this coming Saturday (No-
vember 1st) with $4,000 Liberty
Bell door knob hangers urging
citizens to vote on Election Day,
November 4th. Placed edge to edge,
these door knob hangers would
stretch distance of 36 miles-far
enough to reach the entire width of
Cuyahoga County.
Scouts will meet at designated
distribution points at 800 o'clock,
Saturday afternoon, and the entire
job will be completed within two
hours. Scouts have been given spe-
cific areas to cover in which they
will hang on each door knob a
Liberty Bell card, which will call
to the attention of, citizens the i'm
portance of voting.
The job needs to be done. Citi-
zenship is our active membership
in the United States of America.
1t is the relationship between one
person and all other persons in the
Community and the Nation.
This phase of the Get-out-the-
vote campaign is being conducted
by the Boy Scouts in cooperation
with the Freedoms Foundation.
The distribution is being di-
rected by Volunteer Scouters in
the various sections of the county
assisted by members of the Execu-
tive Staff.
The simple message of the
Scouts to the voters of Cuyahoga
County, contained on the door knob
hanger, is "Vote as you think.
Think when you vote Tuesday, No
vember 4th. Today's Youth counts
on you. Use your freedom to vote"

Election Officials
Prepare For Record
Vote Next tuesday

Cuyahoga County election Off
cials are preparing to handle what
is expected to be the heaviest pres
idential year election on record. A
small army of men and women will
be working in precincts next Tues
day, day and night shifts being as
signed to work from the opening Of
the polls at 6:30a. m. Eastern STAN
dard Time, to the closing at 6:30
p. m. Ballot counting is expected
to go through most of the night.
Voters are being urged to vote
early. Long lines are anticipated
everywhere.
This election will be the first
presidential election in which Ohio
ans will use the new office-type
of ballot. Under a new amend
ment to the constitution, no party
emblems appear on the ballot,
there can be no straight ticket vot-
ing.
There will be four ballots-the
presidential where an x marked in
the one circle will be the vote for
the president, vice president and
that party's presidential electors.
One need not mark each individual
name on this ballot.
The other ballots will be the
state-county, the judicial, and the
special issues. Each name, each
issue is to be voted upon which will
mean more time than usual to be
allowed for voting.
East Clevelanders have one vital
local issue-the school levy. Upon
its passage depends the operation,
the maintenance, the salaries for
the school for the next five years.
The levy is set for 5.5 mills, two
mills of which is renewal, and 3.5
is added to meet increased costs
for the next five years based on in
creases over the past five years. A
majority vote is required.
There are two county issues to
be voted by electors of the suburbs.
One is the $4,800,O0O bond issue for
a new county office building. The
other is a $2,750,000 issue for ad-
ditions to Warrensville County
Hospital.
Once in every 2 years Ohioans
can vote to re-write the state con-
stitution. This is the year and the
issue will be found on the special
issue ballot. A similar vote in 1882
was negative. A majority vote is
needed to pass.
Judicial candidates are on
separate ballot.

School Unique
In Matter Of
Its Employees

A school district is unique in its
employment position. The major
ity of the persons on the payroll
are trained, both in the educational
and non-educational classifications.
This makes for an apparent high
payroll for the number of employ
ees. Furthermore, the school
board has but one source of in
come, namely school taxes. But
taxpayers in East Cleveland have
always wanted, and always paid
for, good schools.
On Tuesday, November 4th, the
electors are being asked to support
a school levy. Of this amount, two
mills is levy renewable every five
years. The3.3 mills is additional,
being the result of careful study
to determine the next five years
needs, as far as possible.
When that two mills was voted in
1947 the board of education had a
$591, ,397 payroll for 200 teachers.
This year it has estimated
$860,000 payroll for 203 teachers.
Five years hence based on present
enrolment and teaching staff, in
cluding superintendent, principals,
the payroll is expected to reach
the $975,805 mark.
However, from eight to ten ad-
ditinal teachers are expected to be
needed in 1956-57. This statement
is based on the fact that this Sep
tember the kindergarten enroll
ment reached a 654 high; the First
Grade enrolled 642 pupils; and
three additional teachers had to be
hired.
1t is expected that kindergarten
enrolment will continue to mount
each year, and as these pupils pro-
gress, elementary teachers will
have to be added. This will mean
added salary cost requirements.
The average salary increase ir
East Cleveland during the past
five years has been 55%o, states DR.
o. X. Korb, superintendent OF
schools. In the same period cost
of living has upped 1870.
In 1947 the East Cleveland be-
ginning salary for a teacher with
four years training was S24O0.
Today it is $4,000. In the same
period maximums went from $4,000
to $500 for teachers with masters
degrees.
The most recent salary increase
granted teachers was in January,
1852. East Cleveland salaries are
generally 5000 to $500 less than
neighboring districts.
Under a revamped pension sys-
tenn, pension payments are now
made on the basis of the full sal
ary, 60 for teacher and 71s96 for
the board of education. The schools
paid S23, ,973.56 in 1947. 1t will pay
$81 $4,000 this year since percent
age payments have been raised to
six percent on the full salary for
the teachers with corresponding
7k%o to be paid by school boards.

PO. 1898

The city will also mail copies Of
the form upon telephone requests.
Requests should be made for forms
for each suite. This form, it is
pointed out, is applicable only to
the latest 1870 rent increase, based
on the June 30th, 1947 rent.
The form, which Mr.. Lasby ex-
plains as a simplified one, re-
quires the insertion of four or five
figures, depending on improve
ments made. The first figure to
be written in is the June Both, 1947
rent. Immediately below this is a
space for the 301o figure (the 1870
and $50 statutory increases plus
the new 1920. Then there is a
space for the total of these two
figures. Added to this total will
be any increases which have been
granted by written order of the
Rent Control Board between June
30th, 1947 and the present time for
major capital improvements or in
creased services as distinguished
from maintenance and increased
operating costs.
If the landlord does not know on
what basis additional increases
have been granted, he may enquire
from the Rent Office or leave the
space blank for the Rent Office to
fill in.
If the landlord is able to COM
plete the entire form and notifies
his tenant that he has applied for
the increase, he may charge the ad-
ditional rent as Of the day the ap-
plication is received by the Rent
Office.
If the forms are mailed, the
landlords may presume that they
will be received by the Rent Office
on the following day, Saturdays
and Sundays excluded.
Three copies Of the application
must be mailed to the Cleveland
Area Rent Office, 1910 Euclid ave.,
for each rental suite. One copy will
be returned to the landlord, one
will be forwarded to the tenant,
and one will be retained at the
office. If the application is not
approved, or if there is an error
in calculation, the landlord will be
notified to make the necessary ad-
justment.
The Rent Office would prefer to
have forms mailed in. They assure
mailed forms the same careful
service, and perhaps a quicker
processing.
If the landlord cannot fill out
the form, he may merely insert the
full address of his building and
suite to properly identify the
rental unit, and the Rent Office will
calculate the increase for him.
However, landlords are reminded,
that, until authorized by the Rent
Office, no rent increase can be
charged for suites where the CAL
culation has not been completed
for that suite.
This 1919 increase is an admin
istrative rent boost in addition to
the statutory increase of 209o pre-
viously granted in two installments
for a total of 309o. 1t is for in
creased operating costs as dis
tinguished from major capital i'm
provements and increased services
either heretofore or hereafter
granted. The 309o thus auto
matically takes care of the 1879
