natural resources, a request was
made to reduce in valuation
approximately 1880 acre-feet of
water, all located in Seneca Lake
area.
The acreage, according to Mr..
Youngquist's letter, has an as
sessed valuation of $1,265, 200,
and is carried on the county's
tax duplicate with a valuation
of $40 per each acre-foot. The
law provides that a reduction in
excess of 40 percent cannot be
made on the assessed valuation.
The matter was discussed at
some length by the county COM
missioners at their meeting held
Monday morning. A spokesman
for the board stated the reduc-
ton would be a tremendous blow
to the taxing units within the
watershed district as well as to
the county in general.
1t was the decision of the COM
missioners and the auditor to
appeal such action and take the
matter before the state tax COM
mission. The group plans to meet

Of recent date, Courthouse
Custodian Jerry Hupp has been
confronted with problems so
unnecessary in maintaining a
clean public building.
On occasions, persons have
maliciously disfigured or marked
the walls on the ground floor
east corridor with tobacco spit
Also in the toilets, both for the
men and women, attempts have
been purposely made to clog the
stools and urinals with paper.
Custodian Hupp also reported
that some courthouse "loafers"
disregard all rules of etiquette
and decency, for frequently
there have been found gobs of
sputum and chewing tobacco on
the floor, causing most unheal-
thy situation.

that can accurate account is we'll
nigh impossible. The number is
great enough to make us consider
it a major problem, and one we
think should be given more at
tention - the emphasis seems
more on convert making; we feel
more should be on lapsed Catho-

Based on its intensive investi-
cation of the problem, the AVE
MARIA offers a four-point pro-
gram to reduce the number of
fallen-aways:
1-"More concentrated investi-
cation of the problem The
Church has never gathered syste-
matically the facts in the matter,
but now we can ill-afford to do
without them"
2-"Intensified family pro-
grams -. it is beyond doubt that
children of ardent Catholic homes
run much less risk of losing their
faith"
3-"Deeper religious instruc-
ton. This concerns primarily
but by no means solely - the
schools, at all levels. One cannot
say that Catholic schools have
failed to give their students an
adequate grasp of the Catholic
faith. But many do indeed sus-
pect that a sterile, catechetical
and frequently useless approach
to religious truth has not foster
ed the strong faith which a Cath
Ollie needs to live in today's soci-
ety."
