its present citizens"
The present city tax rate is
$2.84 per $100. The increase
for the first year would be 1922
if only these sources of revenue
were tapped. Mr.. johnson said.
Over the remainder of a five
year period, the rate increase
would drop to $1.86 and fall III
subsequent years to $l.28, he
added.
Possible Gains Listed
At one point in the report,
Mr.. Johnston commented that
he had touched lightly upon
some of the disadvantages and
some of the worst aspects" of
annexation.
He went on to list what he
considered possible benefits.
Among these he included at
of industrial, COM
and residential develop
ment. increase of population
figures used in determining the
city'S borrowing capacity for
future needs, and better edu-
cational opportunities for chill
dren in outlying areas"
The Seven Corners shopping
center was singled out in the
report as a tremendous busi-
ness factor" that helps" off,
set the liabilities that possibly
could be incurred by annexa-
ton of residential property.
Mayor Charles M. HALEY,
asked about the financial pic
ture presented in the report,
said it was "the blackest pos
sible" and added that any tax
increase probably would not
be great"

In an introduction to the de-
tailed study, City Manager
Lewis 2. Johnston underscored
his belief that there could be

ent city and upon our present
citizenry."
Johnston Stresses Point
Mr.. Johnston said he under
scored this statement because
of several views expressed by
various groups of people in the
city that annexation would be
a great financial benefit to the
city of Falls Church"
That would be true only
if the considered area to be an

commercial properties in it at

This also would bring prob

how costly a fiend has your
automobile become? w it h
costs as they are today, how
much are Geauga County
drivers spending a year to
run their cars?
The answer is much more
than before.
The American Automobile
Association states that t h e
cost of owning and operating
a car has become a major
expense to the nations 60 mil
lion automobile owners. In
surance, gas parts and re-
pairs have all risen in re =
cent years.
Current estimates S how
that the typical operator, who
has a standard car in t h e
popular price range a n d
drives 10000 miles a year,
spends 81 $3.50 annually, equi-
valent to 1873 cents a mile.
This is 1.8 cents more than
the AAA found in its last
study, covering 1858. The up

eS takes into account h e

shown in Department of La
Dor studies.

cally as Of the beginning of

Trains, tracks, tunnels, sta

of the room in Miss Eleanor
Browns second grade at Rozelle
School. The trains run, the cars
can be switched and uncoupled.
Charts on the wall show the
inside and the outside of each
kind of passenger and freight
car, and explained how they are
filled and emptied. All this is
an extension of the children's
study of Transportation, which
they hope to climax by an act
ual trip in a real train from the
East Cleveland station to the
Terminal.
Such a combination of play
and work, we should judge, is
hard to beat. The children are
made aware of the difficulties
of railroading too, and the fact
that much work is necessary to
the smooth running of train
over a track; but in the mean
time, what a wonderful way to
learn Transportation!
