A billion-dollar revenue year
means that the state is collecting
money at the rate of S2,739, ,726
every day; $114,155 every hour;
81, ,902.59 every minute, and $31.71
every second.
In just a little more than 10 min
utes, the state takes in as much to-
day as it collected during the en-
tire first year of statehood in 1903.
The state auditor in 1903 had to
account for only S20,215 in receipts
all of which was paid out in war
rants drawn on the state treasury.
Ohio did not hit its first million
dollar revenue year until 1876, ac-
cording to old reports of state au-
ditors, but it topped the two mil
lion mark in 1847. One hundred
years ago, total income for one
year was 1851, 1928. At the turn
of the. century revenue for one
year, 1900, amounted to $8,031, ,818.

Ted Brown Talks
On Election Laws

Numerous bond issue and tax
levy questions appear on the bal
lots each year. In order to submit
such a question to the voters, the
taxing authority of the subdivision
(the city council, the village coun-
Gil, the township trustees, or the
board of education, etc. must pass
resolution declaring the necessity
of the bond issue or the tax levy.
The purpose for which the money
is to be used must also be includ-
ed in the resolution. If it is for a
bond issue, the amount of the ad-
ditional tax levy which will be nee
essary to pay the principal and in
terest on the bonds, as calculated
by the county auditor, must also
be stated in the resolution.
The resolution must then be GER
titled to the Board of Elections not
later than the ninetieth day before
the day of the election. The ques-
tion is then submitted to the vot-
ers on a ballot, the form of which
is prescribed by the statutes. Var
iouS percentages of affirmative
votes are necessary for passage.
depending upon such things as:
what subdivision is submitting the
question, what purpose the money
is to be used for ,and when the
election is to be held.
Provision is made in the law for
submitting bond issues and tax
levy questions at primary or spe-
cial elections as we'll as at Novem-
ber elections. AS rule, however, it
is necessary to obtain larger
number of affirmative votes in Or
der to approve an issue at a pri-
mary or special election than is
necessary at a November election.
The percentage of affirmative vot-
eS. necessary for passage must al
ways appear on the ballot for each
question. In addition, the length ot
time that tax can be levied is u.s.
ually shorter if it is voted on at a
primary or special election than il
would be if voted on at a general
election.

Congressional boxscores are
important as an indication of leg
islative accomplishments. The
tally, though, for the first ses-
sion of a Congress tells only
part of the story, but the part the
record of the 84th first session
reveals is no mean achievement.
The session just ended is not
able for its real bipartisan unity
in foreign affairs. Members of
Congress tended to view the mea-
sures presented by President Els
enhoWer as citizens of the Re-
public rather than as members
of a political party. 1 am not one
who often gazes into a crystal
ball, but 1 feel that the unity
displayed this session will con-
tinue next year.
The first session also present
ed the President with a fairly
creditable enactment of the meas
ures he sought. Despite efforts
of the Majority Party in Congress
to write legislation that would
clearly bear the stamp improved
by the Democrats" most of the
Eisenhower proposals have car
ried the unmistakable imprint of
the President. The chief excep-
ton is the Housing measure.

BALTIC Return

give recognition signals. TruX-
tun prepared for instant action
and bore down on the ship which
proved to be the French frigate
L'Insurgente, 40 guns, with Cap
tain Burreaut in command.
The ensuing exchange of fire
was fierce, but the Frenchman
struck his colors in one hour and
Is minutes. This was the first
government ship of any conse
quence captured by the arms OF
the United States at sea since il
had become nation.
In the month that followed the
Constellation captured tw c
French privateers and later de
feated the 52-gun La Vengeance
which outgunned her firepower
by nearly 30 percent.
In the years to follow, this
noble ship was TO distinguish
herself in many victories both

I stopped to ask Whitley what

three feet above the surface. The
light was attracting thousands

Seemed kind of odd to me-but
