GENOA NEWS
ANDY HALEY

The decision was reached by the
Genoa merchants to continue
their Appreciation Day at least for
the balance of the current year,
and President Harold F. Race ap-
pointed committee Of Dave
Platt, Robert Cashen and Gerald
Spurgeon as a means of working
out the details of their future
means of conducting their days of
allowing the purchasers of COM
modities here to also participate
in the benefits. The merchants al
so voted a sum of money to the
village council as the start of a
fund Tor the purchase of a police
car. The merchants also endorsed
the Genoa Development company
in their endeavor to bring new in
dustries to Genoa.
A proposal has been made by
the Toledo Edison company for a
possible purchase of the municipal
owned light plant here A. M. Hill
debrand, manager of the Fremont
division of Edison and John Klee,
service representative here, ap-
peared before council and present
ed the seven page proposal to the
village. 1t included a complete
modernization of the local plant, a
new rate for the consumers, at a
lower figure than that of the pres
ent rate, and several important
concessions to local residents were
included. Council members de-
clined to comment on this propo-
sal but did give indications that
they would study the offer, and
they also granted the Edison com.
pany the right to make a survey
Of tthe street lighting system as
now used here. Modernization of
the facilities would also include
the relocation of high voltage
lines operated by the Edison COM
pany to more suitable location
outside the village limits as we'll
as the rebuilding of the present
lines. Edison rates would be guar
anteed for a period of ten years.
When asked how much the Edison
would pay for the system, Mr.. Hill
debrand stated it would depend
on the inventory of the property
and by using a thumb rule as a
basis it would probably be an es-
timated value of $4,000 per GUS
toner.

MR.. REPUBLICAN"

@# Mi hEFUBL1CAN 5s#
THE DEATH OF Senator Taft is a severe blow to the
Republican Party and to the nation. Senators from both sides
of the aisle went on record in paying tribute to one of the
greatest Americans of our time, and in expressing their sor-
row at the loss. There was no doubt that he was a great
organizer, and that he knew politics from the ground up.
THE o OF Senator Taft at this time is going to be
felt most keenly because the Administration, young in the
ways of running the country, relied heavily upon the Senator
from Ohio. HI was a genius at compromise, and as majority
leader, carried the Administration battle in the Senate. His
death came at a time when President Eisenhower had just
asked for an increase Of the national debt another Is billion
dollars. Senator Taft would have known exactly what to do to
make this fight easier.
BORN SEPTEMBER 8, 1889, he was the son of the 9th
President of the United States. After attending Yale and the
Harvard Law School, graduating from both with honors, he
practiced law in Cincinnati, later marrying Martha Bowers,
the daughter Of his fathers Attorney General From his stay
in the White House he no doubt developed a desire to occupy
that building as Chief Executive. He tried four times for the
nomination, missing each time.
TAFT, SINCE 1889, when he first went to the Senate,
came to be known as "Mr. Republican" He was conservative,
had a high regard for facts, and became one of the most well
informed men in American public life. There was no ques-
ton as to where he stood, and while many disagreed with
him, he demanded the highest respect because OF his unques-
toned integrity. The late President Roosevelt called him one
Of the 10 greatest Americans, and former President Truman,
while admitting that the two often had bitter political battles
paid tribute TO the Senator by saying that there was never
a question as 10 where the Ohioan stood
m THE SUDDEN death of Senator Taft America has
lost one of its most distinguished and valuable public servants
and citizens.

Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1953-05-17

A BOUT the last thing
IN Storekeeper Phil Davis
ever expected was to get into
show business. Yet because
of a televiSion set he installed
to while away the lonely hours
in his combination gasoline
station-farm equipment store
in West Rockport, Me-, he has
found himself running what
amounts to a TV theater. He
lives in a TV fringe area where
reception ranges from bad to
nonresident, but oddly enough
his store gets nearly perfect
reception.
For the first few days after
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1953-05-17

the antenna Sprouted above
the store, customers just
gaped at the set. Then Mr..
Davis noticed that his gaSo-
line customers began coming
indoors to pay. staying long
enough to note that the pic
ture was clear. Soon the word
got around and people began
dropping over in the evenings,
ostenSibly to make a small
purchase, but hanging around
to watch a program or two.
At first, the visitors were folks
Mr.. Davis knew we'll, then
folks he didn't know so we'll
and then more he didn't know
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1953-05-17

at all. They'd come right in,
watch and listen, then ask if
they couldn't sit down for a
spell.
With a store full of kegs,
cases, barrels and berry boxes
(from Mr.. Davis Sideline bust
ness of selling blueberrieS) it
was easy to find a seat. A
genial and sociable host, Mr..
Davis was glad to oblige. Be-
sides, he soon noted that his
stock of soda pop, candy and
smokes was selling out regu-
larly and that the viewers
were making larger purchases
at his store than they ordi-
narily would have made else
where. With so to so folks
drifting in and out during an
evenings telecasting, it soon
became apparent that boxes
and barrels wouldn't do. So
Mr.. Davis cleared some of his
stock off the floor and built
three tiers of benches. On
Saturday nights. however, the
boxes and barrels are brought
out again to accommodate the
overflow.
More important to Mr.. Davis
than his increased business is
the spirit of neighborliness
engendered by the TV get
togethers. Between programs,
people get to introducing
themselves and getting &C
quainted with folks who live
10 or 20 miles away. To Mr..
Davis, this signifies a revival
of the old-time general store
spirit which he thought had
slipped away forever.
