Tax Break
Self-employed people in Noble county—
shop-keepers, farmers, professional workers
and others—are about to get some Federal
tax relief, it appears.
They are to be allowed to make deduc
tions, up to specified limits, for money they
put away each year into their retirement or
pension funds.
The relief measure, which has cleared
the House Ways and Means Committee, is
expected to be passed by a big margin when
it reaches the floor of the House shortly. It
is conceded a good chance of getting Senate
approval as well.
The bill seeks to place self-employed
workers on a par with the millions of other
workers, who pay no taxes on funds placed
in pension pools for them.
The number of self-employed in Noble
county, who stand to benefit from the tax
break, was set at 1,666 in the latest Census
Bureau survey.
They amounted to 42.3 percent of the
total number of people with jobs, a high pro
portion compared with the 17.1 percent in
other United StateS areas and the 14.6 per
cent in the East North Central States.
One of these bills would permit a munici
pality to levy a consumer's utility tax. Tax
rate could not exceed three percent on the
ret rate charged bv electric, gas, water and
telephone companies, whether private, co
operative or public-owned.
The other would permit levying a local
automobile license tax( not to exceed $5 a
year, on the operation of motor vehicles by
resident owners.
All monev collected under the authority
of these municipality initiated measures
would remain in the municipality, where
thev are collected for the exclusive benefit
of the citizens of that village or city.
These measures would tend to alleviate
the present ever Dressing burden of taxation
now on the penernl nronertv owners.
Briefly these bills introduced by Ren.
Jhmes are not new taxes that can be enacted
bv legislative procedure from a state level
but they are directed and soley intended to

Three Important Bills
Three important bills designed to help
financially hardpressed municipalities have
been introduced in the House of Representa
tives by Rep. Edmund G. James of Noble
county.
Two of the bills would give municipali
ties authority to levy local taxes which are
now barred to them because the state has
preempted these tax fields.
The third would increase by a year the
amount now allocated to local governments
from the state-collected sales tax revenues
and would increase the amount allotted to
Noble county by $10,000.
The two tax measures' are "permissive
only", Rep. James pointed out.
"There is nothing compulsory about
either", he said. "A municipality could levy
one or both, if it needed the revenue for gov
ernmental purposes, since they are merely
tools or implements".
Tlie American Way
drawing the award, exoressed
appreciation for the forthright
honesty of the school and its
officials, and said he hoped
the Foundation would get
another nomination from the
Farmington High School this
year.
The editorial was written by
Louis E. Ball, Jr., editor of the
weekly Farmington Valley
Herald. We can think of
nothing better to pass on to
the readers of this column,
than his editorial, which was
carried in the Fob 21, 1958
igsue of the FArRVTRW TWA
COV,
Farm"r4on
Locally, therefore, more of the working
population is affected than is the case in
other sections.
The bill provides that any self-employed
person may deduct from his taxable income
as much as 10 percent of his self-employment
earnings, up to a ceiling of $2,500, provided
that the money is put into specified types of
retirement plans.
This deduction could be taken for as
many as 20 vears, making possible a lifetime
total of $50,000.
A special provision of the bill would en
able those over age 50 to defer taxes on even
more than $2,500 a year.
No tax would be paid on this income un
til the individual retires and starts drawing
his money back. At that time, presumably,
he would be in a tax-free position or, at least,
in a low tax bracket.
According to figures released by the
Treasury Department, the measure would
give the sell'-emploved a cut of $365 million
a year, averaging $32 per person.
This average, if applied to Noble county,
would yield a tax saving, locally, of $53,000
a year.
help solve critical problems facing munici
palities.
It must be understood that these bills, a
$5.00 maximum yearly municipal tax on car
owners and a three percent municipal tax on
consumers' utility bills are intended to re
lieve existing problems being levied con
stantly against municipalities.
It is important to know that before they
can be accepted as a tax levy, they must be
approved by the people living within the
confines of the municipality.
As Rep. James stated, these bills are de
signed to provide a tool whereby municipali
ties may conveniently initiate a measure to
alleviate their ever-mounting financial prob
lems.
As the law is presentlv written, no lesser
political sub-division can levy a tax which is
basic in content and in nature similar to
that of an existing state tax. Such is the
case where the state is deriving money thru
the sale of auto license, etc.
Should the James bills get House and
Senate approval and be enacted into law
bv the governor's signature, then it would
be a concern of the people themselves to de
cide if they wished additional taxes and the
extent to which they desired.
With the constant draw being made up
on municipalities for services and with the
increasing demands upon local government,
if thev are to be provided, then an avenue
must be extended to municipalities to render
these coveted services.
It must be accepted that the James bills
would not incron.se taxes thev are not
tax measures. Thev are merelv implements
bv which the people can achieve pertinent
civic improvements if thev desire to avail
themselves of mp^ns afforded them by
the James initiated bills.

BROTHERHOOD 1958
Not long ago, a sociologist
made the statement that the
major social problem of the
Nineteenth Century was the
achievement of equality, while
the major social problem of the
twentieth Century is the reten
tion of individuality. Historic
ally, there can be little argu
ment with the first premise.
The second premise contains
perhaps the greatest challenge
that any of us will live to see.

"Can't tell her a thing," said
Curley. "She wants a dining

let her have ours. Beautiful set,
too, only she claims it's 'out of

"Now, Curley," said Mrs.

Private Rights and F.E.P.C.
The right of an employer to
hire for a lawful occupation is
very simply the right of any
man to dispose of what he has,
to spend his money for that
which he desires. The rieht of a
worker to organize voluntarily
with other workers in a free
union is nothing more nor less
than the basic freedom to as
sociate. Short of war or the most
terrible disaster, it is difficult
to imagine justifiablo interfer
ence with either.
Under F. E. P. C. legislation,
however, such rights are to be
taken away because certain self
seeking persons feel that em
ployers and unions should not
be free to dislike their group.
What has never before been
even wrong, to help and as
sociate with people like one-self
before people somewhat differ
ent is to be made a crime, the
basis for a denial of free choice
and free association. By force of
statute, charity and friendship,
no longer, may begin at home.
But in this "idealistic" situa
tion, one may consider, at least,
a little pity for those among us
unemployed, soon to find fewer
jobs with more applicants, and
one may sigh, perhaps, and
shudder for the soon to be over
worked police, trying to keep
law and order in this great State,
as the droves of privilege seek
ing migrants arrive by bus and
rail, muttering in endless mono
tone. "discrimination, discrimina
tion," even as they leave the
station.

State Societies
Washington, D. C. boasts of
fifty or so rather unique socie
ties,, known as State Societies
which have varying degrees of
activity and purpose. Former
residents from each of the states
of the Union have formed them
selves into groups with an as
sortment of officials, meeting
places and reasons for meeting.
One thing they have in common
is a tremendous amount of loy
alty for the home state. Ohio
has such a society, and Maxine
and I have attended the Ohio
Society affairs through the years.
A major function of each of the
groups is the selection of the
State Cherry Blossom Princess
She vies with the Cherry Blos
som Princess from each of the
states for the title of Cherry
Blossom Queen. The Queen pre
sides over much of the festivity
of the cherry blossom season
which is one of the Capital's
great tourist attractions.
Hawaiian Statehood
It appears that there may be
a new star added to the nation's
flag this year as well as a new
State Society if the proposal to
admit Hawaii to statehood is
agreed to. The bill to provide for
a new state will come before the
Congress in the near future
Through the years the question
of statehood for Hawaii has been
one that has occupied the center
of the debate arena with argu
ments pro and con being pressed
with great fervor. It does not
appear that there will be much
successful argument aerains*
statehood this year because of
last year's precedent in admitting
Alaska. Those who favor state
hood for Hawaii say that thi?
Hand group has demonstrated
through the years its readiness
to be accepted as an equal part
of our Nat on. that it is a valu
able asset to the union of states
^nd that it will fortify our posi
tion in the Pacific and in the
^r Ea^t. Those who oouose
statehood sueeest that this honor
cbou'd not be granted to an
insular territorv, that it is not
a r^rt of the continent, of North
America, that minv of Hs cus
toms and att:tudes are different
from the rest of the nation, that
it will upset the political bal

Diversion of Water
The perennial Lake Michigan
water diversion bill is scheduled
•o come before Congress shortlv
This ic legislation whi^h would
nermit the citv of Chicago to
divert, water from Lake Michigan
sanitarv purposes and s^nd
the diverted wa+er into the Mis
ci-^inpi Fiver watershed. Th s
nrono^al has been foueht wi+h
ereat fervor through the years
because the u°ers of the water
in the Great Lakes and the
rirannn owners are jealous ens
todians of the water level. Th
oroposal would have a small but
probablv rather significant
effect
unon the water level in Lake
Frie. believ that the reduction
would be a fraction of an inch
The lowerinff of the Lake's level
by even an inch would probablv
not be noticed to the unpracticed
eve but the effect of the diver
sion would bo notod bv users of
the lake, particular^ by sh:ppin«
lines parsing critical reefs and
shallow channels in the lake svs
tem. Oil and coal vessels are
built and loaded according to the
water level at these critical pass
ages. The lowering of the water
level bv an inch would
reduce
bv vast amounts the tonnage
these vecsels could carry. Since
the bill has received adverse
treatment in past years the pres
ent proposal is cautious in pro
viding for only a one year trial
of diversion to the extent of 2,500
cubic feet per second. It will be
vigorously opposed.

Banks
I suppose most people know about banks, for it is utterly im
possible to go far along the "present road of life and not dome in
contact with them in one way or another. So far as I know there is y
no bank in our Republic where you can draw out money without
first putting some in their vaults. I know of no bank where you can
borrow money without first having a deposit there much larger
than the sum you wish to borrow or have property worth several
times more the amount borrowed or having co-makers sign with you
who are worth many times the amount needed. With all this you
might be able to get a loan. Of course there are the loan shark banks
where loans are made on everything you own with your soul thrown
in to boot for a measely twenty-five or more percent interest. Once
you gft in the spider web of such sharks all heaven and earth can't
get you untangled.
Now we got a new type of bank. It was invented by the duper
brain trusts of Washington. It is called, of all things, "The Soil
Bank". I suppose it has something to do with dirt.
I understand that you can put your farm into this new bank.
Buildings, land, etc, etc. What will the bajik do for you? This is
where the dirt comes in. The bank will pay you hard cash for not
raising crops. Think of that. Getting paid for doing nothing. Gosh,
one had better go buy a thousand acres of dirt and put it in a soil
bank and get paid several hundred dollars per year for not farmimg
it. You could soon pay for the farm in this manner.
Seems to me the other banks had better follow the example of
the soil banks and start giving out cash to everyone for not putting
any in the bank. Great business this.
