Game Protector
Smith Resigns

Don l.. Smith, Noble county
game protector or warden, has
submitted his resignation from
the wildlife division, effective
Wednesday, April Is.
Smith, who lives in the Bates
vile community, has served as
game protector for Noble county
and area for the past three and
one-half years. Prior to his as
signment to Noble county, Smith
was a resident of Lima, Aller
county.
Noble county was his first
assignment with the wildlife
division, department of natural
resources.
Reluctant to accept his recent
transfer orders, which would
have sent him to jefferson
county, was the reason Smith
gave for his resignation.
He has secured employment
with Cleveland Graphite Bronze
Company, Caldwell branch.
Game protectors in adjacent
counties will patrol the local
area until a successor to Smith
has been named.

 Another fact brought out in the article was that, altogether, the railroads state and local tax bill for education in 1958-an eSti- mated 14O million dollars-was equal to almost third of the fed eral governments contribution to the same school systems!
 MT. Mackie builds up a strong case for the railroads and his con- tention is that the railroads are taxed way and beyond that of air lines, trucks and canal users.
 We make no brief for railroads. since it would require an enOr- nous amount of research to get a clear picture of what is fair in this tax system. A point that comes to mind after leading the article Is: Have the railroads too much real estate: and is there revenue be- ing derived from owned proper ty that justifies some of this tax ation?
 We wouldn't want to see the railroads taxed out of existence. We hope some day again to ride the ranS, relax in the cIuD c- eat a meal as the landscape flr--s be- fore us, and perchance to sle~p at night as we speed towards our destination-untroubled by road amaniacs" on our highways.

 I read with interest in the Aug ust issue of The Readers Digest an article entitled Must We Tax The Railroads Out of Business?" by David I. Mackie, the latter an expert in matters of railroads.
 I'm an old fashioned boy who loves to ride the railroads still. It is a well-known fact that they are having trouble-low on pas senger traffic, high on costs. This tax phase. though, is of interest. Mr. Mackie points out that the rail- roads state and local tax bill for 1858 was a whopping 400 million dollars. Railroads pay huge taxes because they are the largest indus trial owners of real estate in the United States. Their tracks take them into 96 percent of our 3O67 counties, according to the article.
