Property Owners Plan Fight
Against Location of Cemetery

alton of new uses of the land
In the way the majority of the
residents approve. Legal means
were set up for the township
Trustees to put to a vote any
such change in the use of land
as the establishment of a pri-
vate cemetery in a residential
area.
Without such control the ex-
pansion of the suburbs of
city into a rural area usually
results in such a mixture of
commercial, industrial, and resi-
Dental developments that the
best interests of none of them
are well met. A rural Slum will
not support nearly as prosper
Gus a commercial development
as will a residential area re-
stricted sufficiently to insure
its property value and character
remaining decent" member of
the group said.
IL ZOnlng is thrown out
now we will lose the benefit
of the past four years in which
several acts of the zoning offic-
ials have promoted desirable
building and prevented some
undesirable ventures. Persons
seeking to promote such non
residential ventures have asked
these officials which townships
near Cleveland were not yet
zoned, if we lose zoning, we
will be such a township with
no protection"
The members of the associa-
ton voted to mail letter ex-
planning this situation to all the
property owners in Chardon
Township and to attenmpt to
get the entire township behind
this fight to keep zoning. They
want to explain to all property
owners that what started out as
an attempt by one neighbor-
hood to retain its residential
character is now affecting the
entire township as we'll as in
all zoned townships in
the state.

AS the cost of living goes up, the ELECTRICITY
that lights your home and operates your modern,
work-saving appliances becomes more and more a
bargain value.
For example, since 1889 in the Cleveland area
alone, the cost of living has gone MP an amazing
91%. In that same period, the average price per
unit of ELECTRICITY supplied for home use by
The Illuminating Company, has gone doOn 26%.
That's bargain buy in anyone's language And,
it's buy made possible by your expanded use of
timesaving appliances plus the consistent effort by
The Illuminating Company's 5000 men and women
to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

New Coal Additive Is Recommended
By Douglas Tuomey

If you use coal as a fuel in
your heating plant, you will do
well to investigate the invention
of a well-known scientist. and
combustion expert. After five
years of test and the sale of mil
lions of pounds to big industrial
users. the product has been made
available to the homeowner.
The product does some very
remarkable things with ordinary
coal. In the first place. tests
show that it reduces heating
costs. 1t does away with hard
clinkers. It eliminates coal-gas
odors and prevents oily SCOT.
Along with all this, the prod
uct enables a banked fire to
stay alive and prevents excess
sive smoke. A test I ran myself
proved this without a doubt. In
my opinion, this is the first sue
ceSSful coal additive ever Of
fered, and I have tried some 20
of them during the past 40 years.
Some of the results obtained
with the use of this material
are most interesting. One of the
larger chemical companies that
formerly shut down it's boilers
every so days for cleaning and
replacing burnt-out metal parts
has found that it can operate
for full year when using it.
Great steel plants, rubber plants
and food professors are buying
it by the carload.
The secret behind the whole
thing is just that a clever chem
ist found something that simply
makes coal burn better. That's
the story in a nutshell.
Unlike most items that do un-
usual things, this product is
absolutely painless to use. It
comes in a small container with
a perforated top so that it can
be Sprinkled on the coal you

SO, 900, 900 Telephones
lin Service In u. S.

The United States now has So
100000 telephones in service, near
ly one for each three persons, Mr..
Richmond, Manager of the Noun
tain States Telephone and Tele-
graph Company, said here today.
At a ceremony held in the White
House today, President Dwight D.
Eisenhower received the milestone
telephone.
"The significance of this achoev-
ment", Mr.. Richmond said, can
not be measured in the number of
telephones alone. Probably more
important is what this vast net
work means to our country and
its people. BY bringing indivi-
duals and the nation together into
a better informed and more closely
knit unit, the telephone has played
an important part in preserving
and advancing the American way
of life. 1t stands ready day or
night enabling friends to chat, or
to summon aid in any emergency.
1t joins together the far flung links
of our country's chain of defense.
1t materially contributes in max
ing us the worlds greatest indus
trial nation. News and knowledge
essentials in our democracy, flow
uninhibited over telephone lines
to channels that use the written
and spoken word, the still or living
news picture"

NEW YORK, (GlobaD - Well,
the Supreme Court has finally de-
cided that baseball is sport and
bot big business subject to anti
trust laws. We might have ex-
pected such a decision, not because
it is a just one, but because, lab
eled as a business, it would lose
it's glamor as the nations pastime.
The boys who roll up the attend
ance figures are out in the cold,
many of them barely making ends
meet, while the front, offices roll
merrily along. There may be a
bright spot for the players in the
fact that they may appeal to the
National Labor Relations Board,
but on second thought, it is un-
alikely that they would make such
a move. It takes organization to
fight a battle like that, and the
number of players on major league
rosters would find it difficult to
finance an organization of the kind
on the small salaries the majority
of them make. So, they are right
back where they started.
