Unexpected Cash
Will Not Offset
Highway Losses

London and West Jefferson gov
ernmental bodies will both come
into some unexpected money dur
ing the coming year as a result of
action to comply with Ohio Revis-
ed Code sections cited in the next
paragraphs. The additional millage
comes from taxing subdivisions ac-
cording to the Ohio Revised Code.
London will receive an unexpect-
ed 80 mill for general operations
and West Jefferson will receive 40
mills for the same use. The new
income is not expected to offset
the loss from highway cases which
may go to the new county court.
Of the action making the funds
available Madison County Auditor
Forrest r. Hanson had this to say
in a prepared statement:
Inside rates of Madison County
were revised at recent Budget
Hearings and in all instances at
tempts were made by the Budget
Commission composed of Forrest
Sidener Jr., Harold Bidwell and
Forrest r. Hanson to so revise in
side rates as to conform with Sec
tion 5705.31 and 570518 r. c. of
Ohio. Conditions in some taxing
districts were such that to apply
the full mandatory rates would
have worked financial hardships
on all concerned.
"The Budget Commission made
a careful study and felt that in
some instances it would be better
to make the complete revision over
a longer period than one year This
would permit notification to the
subdivision and give such subdivis-
ion an opportunity to do something
about recovering losses that would
occur. The County rate as approx
ed by the budget commission and
accepted by the County Commits
sioners for the 1857 Duplicate and
to be applied on the 1858 Calendar
wear is as follows: County 800;
Veteran Relief 80; for a total of
$50 mills.
"All districts have had the World
War II Bonus of 20 renewed and
a new Bonus known as Korean
Bonus 40. These are state wide
levies, the Korean Bonus having
been voted on and passed by the
voters last year.
"In London the inside rate was
adjusted as: Union Twp. 40; Lon
don Schools $50; London Schools
Bonds 30; London Corp. 1.50; Lon
don Corp Bonds 20 and London
Corp Pension 80 for total of
$50.
I'm West Jefferson the inside
rate was adjusted as: Jefferson
Twp. 10: Jefferson Local Schools
500 and jefferson Corporation 80;
for a total of $50 mills"

London Jurist Is
Continuing Drive
For Fishing Right

An Ohio Supreme Court Justice
says that everybody should pay for
the nations conservation program,
not just licensed fishermen and
hunters. They should pay just as
childless couples continue to sup
port schools and people who don't
drive or use car pay taxes to
support various highway programs,
argues lifelong fisherman, Justice
James F. Bell, of London, Ohio.
In an article, Can We Ever
Have A Universal Fishing Lii
cense ?" in the December Fisher
man magazine, tout Nov. 19) the
forty-three-year-old jurist points
out that it is unrealistic today for
only fishermen and hunters to pay
for the conservation program.
IAN excess of 21,00O,000 fisher
men constitute a large segment
that should be recognized by our
legislative authorities" writes Just
ice Bell.
He says that the time has arriv-
ed when fish and game depart
ments have come of age and should
ask their legislatures for appropri-
ations for their programs, rather
than have to be dependent there
fore on revenue from the sale of
licenses.
7 Last March the noted jurist
kicked off a national campaign in
the magazine for the creation of
fishing license which would allow
the bearer to fish anywhere in the
United States-just as one states
drivers license or automobile tag
permits travel in each state. AS
result of his one-man campaign
some states have set the stage to
abolish out-of-state licenes. One,
Ohio, enacted a law empowering
game and fish officials to enter into
reciprocal license agreements.
The primary hurdle to reciproci-
ty in fishing licenses is revenue,
says Justice Bell. His idea to have
everyone pay for conservation is
brought about because most of the
wildlife departments of the United
States are under-financed at the
present time.
ITO take from them their reve-
nue. from out-of-state licenses,
without correIative increment in
revenue. would hinder seriously, if
not stop altogether, their present
programs of fish management and
propagation" the article states.

Those who meet new people

6. Learn to speak correctly

Seven Ways To
Get Along
With People

l. Be sincere in every word
you say and in every service
render.
People cooperate best when
they have faith in your essen
tial honesty.
z. Learn to think comparatively.
Certainly, you often have to
think thingh through on your
own, but there is another more
fruitful way of thinking S har-
ing experiences with others to
produce new ideas which no one
else had thought of before.
3. Learn to read, listen and
understand.
People like to know what you
have read, thought or done. BY
manifesting sincere interest in
their conversation, you will not
only learn new facts, you will
also create much goodwill for
yourself. In reading do likewise.
What you cannot learn from
conversation with others, you
can learn from reading.
a. Learn to work comparatively
Your habits of work may be
different from the habits of
those who work about you. But
The Robbins eagle. (Robbins, Ill.) 1951-1963, 1957-09-28

NOR, help. People still like a
warm handclasp, a friendly APP
proach, punctuality in appoint
ments, and an honest apprecia-
ton of their worth.
Follow these suggestions and
you will get along with people
better, and you will get along
better with yourself too.
