Knox Reports
Savings Up 1870
Over Last Year

In a speech to the members
of the Cuyahoga County Saw
ings and Loan League last
night, Robert c. Knox, retiring
League president and vice-pres-
ident of East Cleveland Savings
and Loan Company, outlined
the progress made by the
county's savings and loan insti-
tutions during the past twelve
months.
Knox said that although con-
ditions in the past year had
been unusual, savings and loans
in the area came through with
flying colors. He pointed out
that in the early part of the
year mortgage interest rates
began to decline as a result Of
the recession then in progress.
He said, "We witnessed one of
the most rapid changes from a
tight money period to one of
easy money and lower interest
rates ever experienced" For the
past two months, however, rates
appear to have steadied and, he
said, "Many believe that 1859
interest rates will be moderate
ly higher, while others believe
that legislation will help to ease
mortgage interest rates"
In reporting on the current
growth of the savings and loan
industry in this area, Knox
pointed out that total assets of
League members now exceeds
| and ia billion. The increase
over the past twelve months has
been more than S160 million
which is close to a Is per cent
increase over the assets of a
year ago. He pointed to the
many new savings and loan Of
fices which had been opened
during the year as tangible
proof that the industry in Cuya-
hoga county is growing at a
rapid pace.

Tax Bills Are In
The Mail Boxes

First half 1858 tax bills are
now due. The little reminders
from the County Treasurer
give the property owner up to
January 10th to settle this ac-
count. After that date a 1919
penalty attaches itself to the
bill.
This collection adds up to the
largest real estate collection
ever for Cuyahooga County.
New construction, plus a high
er tax rate caused through
bond levies and tax levies gen.
orally, are expected to bring in
more than the record 1857 take
of $140,417,925.

east Cleveland's public and
|parochial school buildings are
as safe as maintenance can pro-
vide". This is the reassuring
statement today from Fred w.
Lange, chief of the East Cleve-
land Fire Department when
questioned as to the fire safe
ty conditions in the eight pub
lie and two parochial buildings.
However, to provide guar
anteed safety in all buildings"
the chief emphasized, there
should be protection by ap-
proved sprinkler systems.
The entire discussion arose as
an aftermath of the Chicago
school fire of last week which
wiped out the lives Of more
than 80 children to make for
one of the greatest school fire
disasters in the nations history.
"The East Cleveland Board
Of Education" states Chief
Lange, "co-operates in every
way possible with this depart
ment and the state in meeting
fire sa f e y requirements. 1t
confers with US as to types of
cleaning and floor materials
safest to use. Buildings are kept
clear or rubbish. There is no ex-
cess storage of combustible ma
terials".
The oldest buildings, Superior
and Prospect, both of which are
two story, have fire escapes
from most rooms. However,
Chief Lange feels that the
school board should be making
plans to replace both of these
buildings.
The other four elementary
buildings, Chambers, Rozelle,
Mayfair, all two story, and Ca
ledonia, one story, are fire re-
sistant in the chiefs opinion.
Kirk Junior High School has a
new fire escape from the cafe
terra on the second floor to the
rear.
While there is always possi-
bility of smoke, none of the
