In Noble County, the span of life has been
rising steadily because the population, taken
as a whole, has been getting younger
In 1850, when the last census was taken,
the median age locally was 32.5 years. Since
then, there has been an increase in the pro-
portion in the older groups. But that has
been more than offset by the rise in the num-
Der of children.
Nationally, such developments have caused
drop of close to a year in the general age
level
The average change, applied to Noble
County, brings the present median age local
ly down to 316 years, which is somewhat
higher than the United States median of 29 3
years
Life expectancy at that age now averages
Ala years, which is nearly year more than
it was locally in 1850.

Oral Polio Vaccine

A new vaccine taken by mouth in a single,
safe cherry-flavored dose promises long-last
ing immunity against polio, writes Paul de
Kruif in March Readers Digest article con-
densed from Todays Health, an American
Medical Association publication.
1t will cost less than previous vaccines and
should be available this year, reports the art
icle. Since it was written local health auth
critics and m d c a organizations have
started a mass test in Florida with the single
dose vaccine being given to $4,000 residents
under 40 of Miami and Dade County.
AS three-dose vaccine, one for each type
of paralytic polio, it was tested in 1857 at the
University of Minnesota and since then has
been used widely in Latin America. A 1858
outbreak in Colombia was halted by the vac
cine.
Unlike the Salk vaccine, which contains a
killed polio virus the new vaccine uses live
virus weakened below the danger point.
Also, unlike the killed vaccin it is taken by
mouth Whereas three or four injections of
killed vaccine are now recommended, the
new live-virus vaccine may provide immun-
ity for several years with its one dose.
The new oral vaccine was developed under
the leadership of Dr. Herald Cox of the Led
erie Laboratories division of American Cyan

THE SNEAKY TAX
BY John T. Flynn

This is political year. That
means it is year of promises
promises, not promise. Politi-
clans are chronic promisers
anyway, but in an election year
they get carried away by their
need for election or reelection,
and are ready to promise
almost anything if it means
another vote.
vote.
One of the most fruitful
fields for big, fat promises by
the politicos these past two
decades has been something
called social security" The
promises sounded real good
too, and many people fell for
them. They forgot that a poll
tician has nothing with which
to back up his promises. Before
he can make good on them, he
has to take something from you
with which to fulfill the prom
ises he made you.
For instance. you must have

Longevity

Well overhaul the people now residing in
Noble County can reasonably expect to be
alive in the year 1000 to celebrate the dawn
of the 21st Century.
That is statistical probability, based on the
mortality tables of the National Office of
Vital Statistics and on studies showing the
gains in longevity achieved since the last
census.
1t assumes that there will be no world war
and no other unnatural holocaust in the in
terin.
Under such conditions, some 6,150 of the
present Noble County population are sched-
uled, actuarially, to be here to mark the turn
of the century. They represent 52.1 percent
of the total population.
1t is based on the mortality and survival
rates that pertain today. The estimates are
most conservative because they make no pro-
vision for future scientific accomplishments
that will add to the life span in the next 40
years.
The likelihood is on the basis of past ex-
perience, that five years of life will be added
to normal expectancy before year 1000.
Such is the conclusion reached in study of

under his leadership during the
Indian Wars; to get a first hand
look at land along the Ohio which
he might want for personal pur-
chase; and to view land that had
been bought for him in western
Pennsylvania.
Washington has been depicted
as man of thrift. History books
verify this. At the age of 16, he
acquired $50 acres of previously
untitled land in Virginia. He paid
for it with money he earned as
a surveyor. At the age Of 49,,
he bought 456 more acres and at
20 became the owner of another
tract of $50 acres. Before his 2lSt
birthday, he was the owner of
1858 acres.
In his early days as soldier,
he had been as far west as the
junction of the Monongahela and
Allegheny Rivers which form the
Ohio River. So it was no surprise
to his intimates that the ITO
trip to Ohio took place.

the Social Security Fund
CHATS why it is full of I.O.U.'s)
and promptly spends it for all
sorts of things, including for
eign and domestic handouts.
How, then, does the govern
ment pay old-age benefits to
workers as they reach retire
ment age? If there is nothing
but I.O.U.'s in the Social Sec
urity Fund, where does the
government get the money to
pay the benefits? It pays them
out Of current taxes.
You are really being taxed
tWiCe-onCe to pay for fake in
surance for your old age, and
again to pay the present-day
benefits to old people whose
social-security taxes were SOU
andered by the government
long ago.
But this sneaky tax has an
other effect. 1t helps the poll
ticians to keep up wild govern
ment spending in all sorts of
socialistic schemes. And this
wild spending eats away at the
value of your dollars. It causes
initiation. This is why your dol
lars now buys less than half of
what it once did. You are going
to hear the politicians promis-
ing you more social security.
But they fail to mention that
you can't have more social
security without more taxes.
You discover this only when
your pay envelope shrinks, as
it has just done once again.
But more important, stop
and think about this. How
much benefit will you get
from this so-called social
security" if it is paid to you in
JtIl-CcIlL dolldtS. " llSll iilS
governments social security
scheme began, you paid taxes
in 100-cent dollars. Now the
benefits are being paid in At
cent dollars. Of course, you are
now paying taxes in 47-cent
dollars too, but you are paying
five or six times as much.
When the time comes for you
to collect your benefits, you
might get them in ten-cent
dollars.
And if we keep this up long
enough, the time can come
when the dollars won't be
worth anything.
In the meantime, this sneaky
tax plus all the other taxes
you pay-enables the govern
ment to continue its spending
spree, which in turn causes the
initiation which eats away at
the value Of your own private
