Had this question been asked
just eight years ago, the answer
would be mo, without hesita-
ton. Why? With a tax duplicate
of less than $9,0O0,000 and real
estate valuation representing
over one-half of that amount, it
is quite easily to understand the
tax burden would have been too
heavy to carry.
We ask this question today,
and the answer simply is YES.
Why? With a tax duplicate of
nearly $21, 100000, the major
increase made up from public
utilities and industrial develop
ment and expansion, the tax
burden to the citizens of Noble
county is so miserably small,
that the benefits to be derived

from improved health facilities,
completely offset the additional
tax to be shoulder by the aver
age citizen of Noble county.
Today, an additional tax levy
of 1.6 mills will be assessed
against our valuation; just eight
years it would have necessitated
levying at least four mills to
meet the bond obligations. AT
the present time, the tax valua-
ton is the highest it has ever
been in the history of Noble
county.

to build a hospital and then
maintain it after it has been
built?"
We feel that is a good ques-

the past two months, there is no
doubt in our minds that many
people do have the answer.

To Open

Seventeen after-school play
grounds, staffed by trained re-

ment.
Most areas will begin operation
on Monday, October 4th, with a
supervised recreation program that
will include sports and games for
youngsters and teenagers. Sessions
will be held for p hours immedi-
ately after schools let out. The pro-
gram will be in operation Monday
through Friday throughout the
school season.
Purpose of the program is to pro-
vide a wholesome outlet for youth
full energy during the period just
after school and before dinner. Ac-
cording to Milton Morse, supervi-
sor of Fairgrounds, past experience
in Phoenix has shown that juvenile
delinquency drops when a play
ground program exists in a neigh
borhood, and, conversely, rises
when a recreation program is re-
moved.

scheduled to open at the following

ton leaders in charge:

Crane Rookery
Proves Nuisance

A meeting of all interested
Sportsmen is called for Sunday at
l p. m. at the Bay township home
of William Christensen to discuss
preservation of wildlife.
Mr.. Christensen said Fred Jacob
sen, federal game warden, is ex-
pected to attend the meeting. Of
paramount interest for discussion
is the huge crane rookery, which
has sprung up in the Bay town
ship area and which is presenting
an unhappy problem for adjacent
marsh owners. Cranes are now
classified as song birds and pro-
tected by law, but Mr.. Christensen
estimated there ara 5000 nests in
the rookery, each with three to
six eggs. Muskrat population suf-
fered greatly last year from the
depredations of the cranes, Mr..
Christensen said.

Tests Made In EOD
Firing Complaints

AS the reSulL OF tOcdi query
relative reported complaints of
property damage resulting from
the proof firing of weapons at
Erie Ordnance Depot, officials of
the depot today released the fol-
lowing information.
There have been occasional
written complaints of possible
damage to property. The majority
have come from property owners
within a radius of 10 to Is miles
of the depot. Recently the depot
has received several from more
distant points about the lake.
Erie Ordnance Depot officials
have been sympathetic to these
complaints, and have investigated
each case individually. Seismome-
ter tests have been conducted. All
pertinent information in each case
has been forwarded to higher
authority for final recommends
tions.
A review Of recommendations
made in these cases show that up
to now none have been approved.
Reasons for the disapprovals are
based on the results shown by
Instrumentation and lengthy in
vestigations of each alleged in
stance.
Reports of investigations dis
close that all firing at the depot
is accomplished above ground;
that there is no marked differ
ence in the type of artillery tested
from day to day; and that the bulk
of the firing is of medium artil-
lery.
Seismometer tests are negative
in result, revealing, the reports of
investigations state, that alleged
damages could not be caused by
ground shock waves from the de-
pot.
In this connection, it is explain
ed, that the firing points at Erie
are set up over semi-marsh area.
In this area there is no hard-stand-
ing or limestone shelf or any other
medium which would aid in the
transmission of ground shock any
appreciable distance.
Wind, humidity and cloud for
nations, it is further pointed out,
affect the damping of the aJ.u
waves. Depending On the combina-
tions of these factors, the effects
Of the sound waves generated in
firing will be felt in varied inten-
sity and direction, it is noted.
Cost to the government for pro-
cessing these cases amounts Ito
several thousand dollars annually,
it is estimated.
