Record Year Is
Reported By Local
Insurance Company
Unprecedented pre.-rn in all
operations of the Western and
Southern Life Insurance Com
pany during 1958 was reported
by William C. Stafford, president
Paul Seffens is agent for the
company in Noble county.
"Assets in excess of $906 mil
lion and total insurance in force
of more than $4.5 billion as of
January 1, 1959 evidence the
financial strength and growth of
Western and Southern during the
past year," Mr. Stafford said.
Total assets on December 31,
1958 were $906,010,381.58. Insur
ance outstanding was $4,529,959.
747, covering more than 5,900,
000 policies. This was a gain of
$503,876,218 in insurance in
force.
Policy reserves at the end of
1958 amounted to $798,365,680, an
increase of $78,465,719 for the
year. After providing for ad
ditional reserves anticipated as a
result of the new Federal Tax
program, the company's surplus
increased to $62,318,194.24.
The report further showed that
a total of $63,101,780 was paid in
benefits to policyholders and
their beneficiaries during 1958,
and more than $11 million was
set aside for payment of divid
ends to policyholders during 1959.
More than 7,600 personnel
serve Western and Southern pol
icyholders in the home office the
regional offices at Philadelphia,
Asheville, St. Louis, Galveston,
and Los Angeles and in the more
than 300 sales and service offices
throughout the United States.
During the year a new seven
story addition to the home office
at 400 Broadway was completed
and occupied, providing adequate
facilities for the expended opera
tions of the company.
Seles Tax Receipts
Show Local Decrease
i .A* L- O *. Lt. J. i
Ferguson today reported that
weekly collections from Ohio's
selective sales tax'for the week
ending February 7, 1959, amount
ed to $3,096,894.
The story in Noble county,
however, was very different and
the sales tax receipts for th)
week ending Feb. 7 dropped to
$ 1,033.20, compared to $2,600.47
for the same period in 1958.
Total amount collected in the
county to date is $85,714.80, com
pared to $90,576.61 for the same
number of months last year.
Morgan county also showed a
similar decrease as Noble but
the other counties in the 15th
district had a slight increase.
Treasurer Ferguson stated an
analysis of the report showed
that 63 of Ohio's 88 counties
recorded weekly collections
greater than last year. These in
clude seven of the eight major
urban counties Cuyahoga,
Franklin, Lorain, Mahoning,
Montgomery, Stark, and Summit.
Hamilton county was the only
major urban county which reg
istered a decrease in weekly col
lections.
An examination of cumulative
totals, said Treasurer Ferguson,
showed nine counties, including
Franklin and Montgomery, have
accumulated collections which
exceed those of last year.
Frozen Foods Offer
Miss Irene Netz, Ohio Stnt
University Extension nutrition
ist, says there is almost no limit
to the variety of frozen foods
which can be kept in the home
freezer or purchased at the store.
Homemakers should know
some basic facts about freezing
if they are to make the best pos
sible use of frozen foods, the
specialist says. Will the foods
and seasonings freeze well? Ar
they properly packaged? How
long will they keep in the freez
er? Must the food be thawed
before using, and how long wil
the thawing take? Is the pack
aged food pre-cooked or raw'
How many servings are in each
package?
The label on the package
should answer those questions,
whether the food came from the
store or the home freezer.
In planning a meal, Miss Netz
says, the homemaker should con
sider variety in flavor, texture
color, and nutritional value of
the foods. Frozen foods, sh»
points out, fit well into break
fasts, supplying fruits, juices,
breads and main dishes. Main
breakfast dishes might conn
from frozen pancakes, waffles,
or frozen batter to make fresh
pancakes. Frozen steaks, chops
or fish could be used in prepar
ing brunch. Frozen soups and
chilled or frozen fruits also can
be used in preparing an appetiz
ing meal.
Miss Netz explains that stores
offer many complete dinners in
the frozen fod line, or the home
maker may use her own frozen
fruits, vegetables and meats in
planning complete meals from
frozen foods. For best quality,
frozen foods should be 6tored at
O degrees Fahrenheit. Miss Netz
sayx.
School systems in the smaller
counties such as Noble county
would be faced with a particul
arly difficult problem, Cloud said
in stating the position of the
House Republican minority.
DiSalle told a press conference
last week that he is "studying
this possibility" and that he
might suggest it to the legisla
ture.
"In the main, there are three
broad fields of taxation," Cloud
said.
These are:
"Taxes levied upon real and
personal property where the
situs of the tax is fixed. (Under
the Ohio system of taxation
these have been almost entirely
reserved for the use of the local
governments and the local
school districts.)
"Income taxes. (These are pre
empted by degree, if not by
actual law, by the federal gov
ernment and Ohio municipali
ties.)
"Taxes under which almost
everyone pays some portion of
the load—the retail sales and
excise taxes.
"Historically, the sales and
excise taxes have.been levied in
Ohio by the state because of the
extreme difficulty of collection
upon the local level. The possi
bility that many different sub
divisions levying in this field
would have many different
schemes and many different rates
would make the general cost of
such collection far exceed that
which a state-collected program
would require.
"Moreover, the uncertainty of
application in over-lapping dis
tricts (as between schools, coun
ties and municipalities) would
pose a very severe ptoblem in
if IfB

Local Collection Of Taxes Would
Be Unworkable, State Leader Says
Having the counties collect and retain for distribution the retail
sales and utility excise taxes, as suggested by Governor DiSalle,
would be "unworkable and completely disruptive of the existing
local government and school financing programs," says House Minor
ity Leader Roger Cloud of Degraff.

perfecting effective means of col

'The state government can
never divorce itself from a direct
responsibility in the support of
our school systems and some por
tion of local government opera
tions.
"County government is a direct
creation of Ohio law and is com
pletely dependent on legislative
action for its authority and
support.
"The Ohio constitution says
'Provision shall be made by law
for the organization, administra
tion and control of the public
school system. The General
Assembly shall make such pro
visions, by taxation, 'or otherwise,
as will secure a thorough and
sufficient system of schools
throughout the state.'
"For these and many other
reasons, and because existing
school and local financing pro
grams cannot be jeopardized by
swift change to a basis of fiscal
support which is unpredictable
in its outcome, such a proposal
is beyond the realm of proper
consideration when accomplished
in one swift action."
The average cow in the United
States produces 6,200 pounds of
milk a year—only enough to
provide her owner with a return
of about $9 a year over total
cost of feed and care, says the
U. S. Department of Agriculture.
Major trends in livestock pro
duction favor continued expan
sion of beef breeding herds in
Ohio, say Ohio State University
Extension beef cattle specialists.

Ohio 4-H'ers
To
Observe
National Club Week
February 28 lo March 7
Ohio 4-11 club members will
observe National 4-H Club Week
February 28 to March 7 with spe
cial salutes to 4-H alumni.
Clubs throughout the state are
planning programs, ceremonies
and other activities which will
honor men and women who have
continued to live by their 4-H
ideals. Civic and service organiza
tions, schools and churches, farm
groups and others are arranging
for talks by 4-H'ers and former
4-H'ers.
The week will .feature pro
grams in which parents, 4-H lead
ers, extension agents and others
will participate. Many clubs ar'?
working on exhibits which will
illustrate typical 4-H activities.
In addition to giving Ohio's
81,800 club members an oppor
tunity to pay tribute to former
members, the week's observance
will help explain the 4-H club
program to other young people
who may wish to enroll, accord
ing to H. W. Harshficld, state 4-H
ciub leader. It also will aim at
stimulating more public spirited
citizens to volunteer for service
as local club leaders, Harshfield
says.
Elsewhere in the nation boys
and girls in rural, urban, and sub
urban areas will join in the na
tional observance. In Washingtcn
D. C. two 4-H alumni and six
4-H'ers will represent the coun
try's more than two million mem
bers in special ceremonies. The
group will visit the White House
and present a "4-H report to th-»
nation" to President Eisenhower.
The 4-H program is a part o?
the national educational system of
cooperative extension work in
which the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, the state land-grant
colleges, and the counties share.
Club members, ranging in age
from 10 to 21 years, carry on
a wide variety of farming, home
making, community service and
other projects.

Ohio Researcher Sees
International Science
Science is a connecting link
between the nation's of the world,
as Ohio forest geneticist declares.
Dr. H. B. Kriebel of the Depart
ment of Forestry at the Ohio
Agricultural Experiment Station
in Wooster is a member of a
seven-man committee rounding
up a world list of forest gene
ticists.
He has received from the Aca
demy of Science of the USSR a
roster of Russian research scien
tists in this field. Dr. Kriebel in
terprets the submission of this
list and one from Poland as an
indication of a desire on the part
of these countries to promote ex
change of scientific information.
The directory, being readied by
the Forest Tree Improvement
Committee of the Society of
American Foresters, should stim
ulate this exchange and better in
ternational understanding, he
adds.
The Russian tally is 45, about
the same as the number of Ameri
can tree geneticists. Dr. Kriebel
has already compiled lists from
Austria and East and West Ger
many. Other committee members
are contacting other nations.
The value of an acre of pas
ture for market hogs ranges
from $12 to $20 depending on
seeding mixture, clipping to
promote young growth, and rate
of stocking, according to Ohio
State University Extension swine
specialists.
