An Editorial
THE STATE OF SMALL BUSINESS

You've no doubt heard il said that small business is in a
bad way these days.
report from the Chamber of Commerce of the United
States based figures tells very different story
In the last corporations with assets of less than $3.50
900 have shown the greatest increase profit margins They did
farbet+er than the for corporations of all sizes 1t true
that failures have increased since 75$ However the
number of interpretations shows greater increase - 30
per cent against "a per cent
So the Chamber asks this apt question: If the pessimiste
reports small business all true how could such large
numbers Of businesses spring up2

Turnpike Report
indicates Success

In releasing figures for the
month of May which showed a to-
tai revenue for the Ohio Turnpike
for that month of 81, ,121, ,442, the
Chairman of the Ohio Turnpike
Commission, James w. Shocknes-
sy, at the same time released fig
ures showing that for the first II
days of June total cash receipts to-
gether with estimates of revenue
from charge accounts and conces-
sions amounted to $825, 900.
Of the first II days of June,
Shocknessy said: Seven days ago
we released figures for the first
10 days of June which we said at
that time gave assurance of the &C.
onomic sufficiency of the Ohio
Turnpike. Since then we have COM
pleted the turnpike's all-time best
week. The S825, ZOO estimated for
the first II days of June not only
gives assurance of the economic
sufficiency of the Ohio Turnpike,
but If the revision in the rate
schedule produces commercial traf-
fic comparable to the passenger
car traffic already using the Ohio
Turnpike, the 17-day estimate in
dicates our worry will begin to be
about adequacy to accommodate
the traffic volume rather than sol
vency."

A Little Black Skunk
Caused All The Trouble

Wayne Wiley, local plumber,
has taken everything from a
water drain in the home from a
socket wrench to a mop but last
week topped it all.
When he was called to the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Halls
Clark, who reside in the Harold
Morgareidge farm property to
unclog drain, he found small
black skunk was causing all the
trouble.
Using his electric sewer rod,
Wiley bored into the drain for
distance of 80 feet and the
reversed the rod and pulled out
the black skunk.
Wiley said that both drains
worked fine after that but the
smell was terrific and he even
took it home with him on his
clothes.
