South Scion Talk
Discusses Taxes
On Stored Grains

Fayette County Prosecutor Rol-
la Marchant of Washington c. H.
Monday night discussed the prob
lem of personal property taxes on
grain stored in government bins
during a meeting of the South So
lon Farmers Union Local.
The meeting, attended by about
80 area farmers, was held in the
South Solon Community Building.
Marchant told the group that he
expects the Fayette County grain
tax case to be decided by the Ohio
Supreme Court before too long.
A county farmer some months
ago obtained an injunction in Fay
cite County against collection of
county personal property taxes on
grain in government bins not ac-
tually owned by the farmer, though
he has the right to reclaim the
grain by repaying the money loan
ed on it.
The State Department of Taxa
ton upheld the tax, but later the
State Board of Tax Appeals ruled
the tax collection illegal.

Auditors Men In
City Five Weeks
Plan Long Stay

London City Council named
George Shoemaker, a candidate for
the office in the November cleo
tion, to fill the unexpired term of
the late F. E. Kidwell. Shoemaker
will serve as councilman at large
until the term expires. He is a
candidate for ward councilman.
In other action council passed a
resolution of respect and regret at
the passing of Councilman Kid
well. The resolution, signed by
council members, council president
and the clerk and Mayor read as
follows:
Whereas, the death of F. E..
Kidwell, City Councilman on June
Is, 1857, terminated the career of
public servant whose life was a
symbol of dedication and devotion
to public service and London has
lost one of its most outstanding
citizens; and
Whereas, during his career with
the City Council, Mr.. Kidwell
stood high in the respect of his Of
ficial associates. His friendly per-
sonality gained him many loyal
friends and he will be remembered
for his fair and impartial decision
in the conduct of his responsible
office. Everyone respected and ap-
preciated his knowledge of his own
office along with the administra-
ton of the Council and his guild
ance will be missed by all;
Whereas, the members of this
Council and the City officials and
associates valued his friendship
and public service and his passing
is a deeply felt personal loss; and
Be it further resolved that we
place on permanent record of this
Council. this resolution in recogni-
ton of Mr.. KidwelPs personal SER
vice, and the high esteem in which
he will be held by the City en-
ployees and the people of London,
Ohio"
In other discussion council mem
bers pointed out that for five
weeks two examiners from the of
flee of the State Auditor have been
working here, and are not nearly
completed. II was brought out in
the discussion that full time ex-
aminer may be kept here for some
time, in order to get the books in
the order they desire. In the dis
cussion it was pointed out that the
examiners cost the city approxi-
mateIy $500 per day each plus
travel and expenses. Several coun-
ciImen expressed alarm at the pro-
posal that a full time examiner
would be sent here. Council has al
ready asked that a letter be sent
to the office of the State Auditor
protesting the many examiners
sent to London.
Council also noted that parking
meter receipts and fines have both
taken noticeable Increases since
| legislation enacted to get notices
sent out to the violators who have
not paid their tickets. But they
pointed out that there has not yet
been sufficient results to make the
recently created clerk to mayor
position profitable. The discussion
indicated that continued action by
the clerk will eventually become
profitable both from increased me-
ter collections and added violator
fines paid.
