William Graef, district manager for the company, said there
are no major changes in the new
directory.
"The directory Is larger this
year because of expanded listings
in both the w h i t e and yellow

of each page to help customers
locate names and numbers.
"Places for emergency numbers to be written are located on

the location of these numbers to
be readily available and easy to

year after completion of a building addition of 5,600 square feet
floor area on three floors.
District M a n a g e r , William
Graef, says that present space
for local and long distance equipment is almost completely occupied and a building addition
must be made to permit planned
additional automatic equipment
in 1970 and future years.
Building plans were completed
in S e p t e m b e r by Kenneth C.

During c o n s t r u c t i o n of the
building addition, all space behind the building will be unavailable for vehicle parking.
Access to the drive-in window
and p a r k i n g area will then be
through the center drive of the
new parking area.
Cars can proceed to the drivein window by going to the rear of
the lot and making a right U turn

only compounded the confusion
among workers and board members, Carlson, placed the responsibility for the conditions on Mrs
Rosekrans and stated he never
discussed salary or time-off with
individual employees and never
made decisions on cafeteria
issues without her advise.
ROBERT ZEEB, board member, then stated he had been
a p p r o a c h e d approximately a
month ago by three of the six
employees involved concerning
the conflicts and had advised
them at that time to go through
supervisory channels to settle
the matter, but to keep him
informed of their progress. Zeeb
then demanded the board give
equal treatment to all employees
and If Mrs Rosekrans was'unable
to handle the situation properly
she be replaced.
Carlson stated the employees
are the best paid in the area
and felt conflicts were caused
by bickering. Board members
ordered an equal hourly rate be
established at once and the facts
be posted on bulletin boards for
the cafeteria workers.
In other action school officials,
—Discussed vandalism of
school buses since school opening which included loss of an
estimated 165 gallons of gas;
a broken head-light; missing gas
caps; and fire extinguishers
found empty among other items.
Officials recommended more
lighting for the area and possible
fencing off of bus parking facilities if necessary. Total damage
was estimated at between six and
seven hundred dollars for the
year.
—Awarded the contract to
widen the gymnasium door on the
west end to the Charles Featherly
Construction Co., of Lansing, at
a cost of $1,168, Present door

—Heard a report from Carlson
concerning additional fire alarms
needed in four rooms of the high
school, cost of the two alarms
was estimated at $200,
—Discussed bids on cyclone
fencing and costs of black topping an area 50 by 120 feet, the
bids were tabled.
—Discussed purchasing new
p l a y g r o u n d equipment for
elementary grades with several
items being suggested by Carlson, including, slides, swings,
large drain tiles and a back-stop
area, Robert Zeeb offered to
contribute large "tire* sand

Clerk Ernest Carter last week
received official notice from the
state tax commission that the
Clinton County- appeal by the
equalization committee had been
denied and consequently property
assessments In the county will
stand as approved last April by
the Board of Supervisors.
A c c o r d i n g to Carter the
county's appeal was considered
by the state tax commission at
their meeting Oct, 7 and members found only an "infinitesimal" difference in various
county levies.
State Treasurer Allison Green flanked by
Rotary Club President J. D. Robinson to his
right and Harold Wellman, program chairman.
First word of the state group's
action was received last week
by Supervisor Gerald Shepard
and later in the week Carter
received official correspondence.
Rotary Out* hosts
state treasurer
He was directed by the tax
commission to notify various
assessing officers in the county
to proceed with routine tax procedures.
State Treasurer Alison Green
gave a short course on taxes
and the Treasury department at
the St. Johns Rotary Club last
week.
Green, who Is in his 19th
year in state government, told
the Rotarians that Michigan taxpayers paid $15.8 billion In taxes
last year to federal, state and
local governments.
The federal government took
in $12.6 billion from Michigan,
while the state collected $1.8
billion and local governments
$1.4 billion.
*So if you're alarmed about
taxes, I think this ratio may
give you something to think about
he said.
In explaining the function of
the treasury department, Green
noted that his own position is
not an elected office but rather
an administration appointment.
Green explained that the 1963
State Constitution resulted in a
major revision of state agencies
by reducing the number of major
departments from 130 to 20.
We now have 19 major departments, Including the treasury,"
said Green. The new alignments
brought the revenue department,
the tax commlsion and several
other departments into the treasury department.
"We had 40 employes on the
day before I came into office,"
said Green "The next day we had
940.".
The State Income tax was
passed In 1967 and this year, said
Green, "we processed approximately three million returns.
"Seventeen percent of the net
Income tax does flow back to
local governments," he said.
County governments receive
one-half of one per cent and
the rest goes to villages, township and cities according to
census figures, i
When asked if he could estimate how much federal money
comes back into Michigan Green
said, "I wouldn't want to give
an estimate here today.
"I'm sure it's not 50 per centj
I'm sure it's not 25 per cent,
"he added, *I would only say that
a rich state—and Michigan is
a rich state—gets a very poor
shake percentagewise."
Library changes
benefit children
Children are coming up In the
world at Bement Public Library,
both literally and figuratively.
All juvenile books have been
moved from the basement' to the
main Library on the first floor
of the Municipal Building in St.
Johns.
Children now have adult supervision and guidance, as well as
full - time library service, 47
hours a week.
To make room for the change,
two complete sections of adult
books have been moved to the
basement room formerly used
for the children.
The sections are adult biography and literature, which includes poetry, drama, essays,
humor, and short stories.
Staff members are ready and
willing to get any specific book
requested from the basement.
Also, adult patrons may browse
at leisure among the books
shelved there.
The basement room will also
be used for children's story
hours, anEnglishLanguageclass
taught by Mrs George Osgood,
and meetings of the Library
Board and the Board of the
Friends of the Library.

A key executive of one of the
nation's largest oil firms will

A hold-up In tax billings was
Issued by the state tax commission early this spring when
the appeal was filed. The hold
affected tax billings throughout
the county including the city of
St. Johns.
City Clerk Tom Hundley stated
Monday that he expects tax billings to be in the mail by November even though he stated official word had not reached him
of the tax commission's action.
(Carter explained all county
assessing officers, including
Hundley, had received notice
from his office but because the
state had initiated the holding
action some assessing agencies
might feel the tax commission
should rescind the order. He
pointed out, however, that the

sweeper
The St. Johns city commission
Monday night voted unanimously
to draw up a lease-purchase
agreement with a Grand Rapids
firm for the acquisition of a
street sweeper.
The model chosen, a demonstrator offered by the Miller
Equipment Co. will represent a
total investment of $14,074. It
can be operated by only one
worker and does not necessitate
the use of additional trucks to
transport collections to dumping
areas. The unit can be driven at
highway speeds allowing it to
travel to the city's sanitary landfill faculties.
The ^commission directed city
manager Harvey Weatherwaxand
city attorney Paul Maples to
draft a lease-purchase agreement to acquire the sweeper. The
Miller offer was one of three
considered. Amounts Involved in
other proposals were $9,541 plus
finance charges and $16,200 Including finance charges.
It is anticipated that arrangements can be completed so that
the unit will be delivered wJthin
the next few weeks.
tax commission directed him to
advise all county assessing units
of the appeal denial and for all
to procede with usual tax procedures.)
Hundley noted that the tax
rolls reflect a 7.81 per cent
increase over a year ago after
equalization. Mill age levy In the
city Is 14.75_wlth 10 mills for
general; two "mills for garbage
and 2.7 mills for retirement of
general obligation bonds.
Most residents of St. Johns
have already paid their summer
taxes but the additional 7.81 per
cent will be added and billed out
in November,
City residents therefore will
be hit by two tax billings in a
relatively short period of time
as winter tax billings will soon
be completed* -»

CLINTON COUNTY
It wasn't too long ago that in
your merry Oldsmobile was
pretty risky business.
The super highways of today
were literally the mud holes of
yesterday.
Many of today's improved road
conditions around Clinton County
are the direct result of work by
the County Road Commission.
The commission was first organized on May 18, 1913, but the
f i r s t regular meeting wasn't
called until a month later (June
2) for the purpose of establishing state trunk highways through
the county.
Attending the first meeting
were Mr O. C. Hollister and
Herbert Armbrustmacher; the
minutes were signed by John
Walker, as clerk and O. C.
Hollister, chairman.
The first roads in the county
were financed by Covert Act
bonds which required the owner,
receiving the benefits of the road,
to pay the costs of its maintenance.
In those days, it was common
practice to set aside "special
work days" when neighbors, with
shovels, and wagons would assemble to do their own grading
and hole filling.
Investigation of the 1922 file
revealed that men were paid 20
cents an hour for hand labor,
1*
Page 3 A
NEWS, St. Johns, M i c h i g a n
truck drivers were paid 25 cents,
and teams with a driver were
paid 40 cents an hour.
Equipment was cheap too. The
horse - drawn road scrapers,
purchased from the GalionWorks
Manufacturing Co. c o s t $250
each.
Four years later, the county
purchased an H. and P. motor
g r a d e r for $1,776. Today, a
grader would cost approximately
$31,000.
When the depression hit, and
land owners had difficulty paying
taxes, the state took over the
C o v e r t Act bonds, relieving
property owners of debts they
had no way of paying.
The county assumed jurisdiction over county roads in
1933-35. This time the upkeep
was financed through tax levied
on gas and weight loads.
Today, the County Road Commission employes 56 temporary
and full-time employees with a
cost estimate of equipment set
at $143,777.64.
Bill Atkinson was road and bridge inspector
and knew Clinton County roads like a book.
Bill gave the Republican News much help in
getting photos and information for a special
section that ran in the paper.

Dear friends,
Survivors of each honorably discharged U. S. war
veteran, or of a peace time veteran discharged for
service-connected disability,
are entitled to several Veterans' Administration benefits.
These benefits in no way
conflict with benefits paid
under Social Security, and
many families qualify for payment under both.

The "Ditty Bag" Christmas
project for 1969 has been completed by volunteers in the MidM i c h i g a n area and states
throughout the nation.
The annual project began Aug.
1 and required approximately
eight weeks to complete.
The gift bags must be distributed to each camp, bunker,
JA and outpost before Dec. 25, and
" ' t h e Red Cross project requires
time, work and funds to accomplish. The. volunteers are people
who care enough to help ease a
most difficult time for our
American servicemen.
The people in the Mid-Michigan Red Cross have been involved with the Christmas gift
program since 1965. The project
was especially requested by the
military for Vietnam.
This year's quota for our chapter was 1,600 "Ditty Bags.*

Adults who complain about
today's younger g e n e r a t i o n
should take action to help these
young people, says John Aylsworth, Extension 4-H Youth
Agent.
Volunteer adult leaders are
needed for area 4-H clubs and
4-H activities, he says. October
marks the beginning of the new
4-H year and new 4-H clubs and
youth activities are now being
planned.
The 45 4-H projects and activities range from archery to
woodworking, from automotive
care to wlldflowers and .from
electronics to child care, **! \

Showing and sharing new
knowledge and skills Is part of
the 4-H philosophy. In this way,
youth learns to lead. Teen leaders work with younger 4-H members.

This volunteer leadership need

rewarding, points out Aylsworth.
There is an old story that
says you can't kill one of those
long legged frogs by dropping
him In a bubbling kettle of boiling
water.
,
; ' >•
The frog every time will react
so quickly (just from the rising
steam), that at the instant of
touching the deadly "hot water his
springing powerful legs will leap
to action to rescue himself from
some chef's dinner menu.
BUT WHAT happens to the
poor frog if the cook puts him In
cold water and then warms up
the water gradually.
This time that old frog probably believes he has made his
goal in life with the luxury of
this warm bath. Mr Frog never
learns because he never decides
to jump till It's too late. By then
he's cooked!
I SOMETIMES wonder if men
are just as foolish? Take away
their freedom overnight, and
you've got a violent revolution.
But steal it from them gradually
(under the guise of "security,^
"peace," or 'progress") and you
can paralyze an entire generation.
Take for an example the income tax. It started out at a
harmless sounding one per cent.
It would have been easy to
jump out of the water, then.
But like the old frog, we waited
while it climbed even higher.
Ever stop to figure out the percentage of taxes you are now
paying? Well, try jumping out of
the water now,
THE TRAGIC thing about the
situation is that we never learn.
Many people could not believe
that the registration of firearms
was the warm water that willft
boil us should our guns be confiscated.
And today the confiscation of
hand guns has been suggested to
the President of the UnltedStates.
If by chance you should
draw a parallel between subsidized teachers' pay and federal
control of education , you are
called "extremist,"
The tragedies of history are
always repeated by those who
refuse to learn from them.. To
seek guidance from the pas! isfl
not "turning the clock back*S as
we are often told.

Intermediate districts should be
approved by a majority of voters
in each district.
Another resolution passed asking that the Michigan Constitution be amended .to provide for
election of Superintendent of
Public Instruction and four members of the State Board of Education, one per year, at the annual
school election with Superintendent of Public Instruction as a
member of the State Board of
Education.
The Farm Bureau took a stand
against the building of a new
State Capitol saying taxpayers
are already taxed to capacity.
Favor was given to the establishment of a Tri-County authority over Capitol City Airport
instead of giving the responsibility to the City of Lansing.
Members urged that welfare
aid, which is given out by local
agencies, be watched closely;
that those able to work be required to do so,
A resolution favoring the remaining of Michigan on Eastern
Standard Time was passed, and
two resolutions concerning MAS A
(Michigan Agricultural Services
Association) were discussed. One
was supported, asking that all
persons carrying Workmen's

One died for lack of a motion
to accept asked that MASA be
discontinued.

pioneers in new endeavors," she

Toward independence
Everyone kicks about big government,
but no one seems able to do anything about
it. However, the near maxim that the trend
toward bigger and bigger government is
inevitable and irreversible could possibly
turn out to be a fallacy. The largest farm
organization in the country, the American
Farm Bureau Federation, representing well
over a million U.S. farm families, who have
endured more than 30 years of government
subsidies and controls, now supports federal legislation aimed at gradually unshackling agriculture from governmental domination.
Business, professions and other groups
which have been following the path of agriculture toward big government domination
may one day look upon the present action
of the Farm Bureau as both a turning point
and a guide in the endless struggle t o .
p r e s e r v e , independence. The Agricultural
Adjustment Act of 1969, which is strongly
supported by the Farm Bureau, points out:
"The transition to the market system.would
be gradual., Substantial payments would be
made during the transition period to help
farmers make needed adjustments. . .At
the end of the proposed phase-out of
acreage allotments, marketing quotas, base
acreages, certificates and government payments .- . . each producer would be free
to . . . make the best uses of his resources
in the light of the market outlook. Thus,
the way would be clear for farmers to
earn and get higher incomes in the marketplace."
With this kind of citizen leadership,
it may prove possible to live with relatively
"big g o v e r n m e n t " and preserve our
liberties at the same time.
Autumn trip
>Utl
There is much concern these days over
the growing dangers of water and air pollution and this attention is well justified.
But despite the seriousness of the
problem there is a degree of regret for
it is the time of year when tradition
dictates the burning of leaves. Few are
those persons who do not experience a
twinge of 'nostalgia from the odor of leaf
smoke and whose memories do not slip
back to other years.
T h e r e is something magical about
autumn leaf fires. The' tiny flames belie
tfyeir capacity for dispelling smoke but even
then the nuisance is erased by the almost
delightful aroma and the most serious of
worldly cares are momentarily swept away
on the vapors of smoldering leaves.
The little fires in back yards, from
'yards, along curbs or in driveways add in
some measure to the air pollution, difficulties but the. problem is banned from
our minds as we gather the leaves for the
burning. The autumn fires offer a more
enjoyable return to yesteryear and the
realities of today are laid aside for the
trip.

You say you're disturbed by
comments regarding poor officiating borne out in the game
films and that such reporting
"only w i d e n s the generation
gap."
Also, you 'indicate concern
that such reporting shows young
people that "so-called adults
only wish to obey the decisions
when they are to our liking.*'
And finally, you detect somewhere "by the attitude of, the
writer, sports are only played

I appreciate your interest in
such things and am pleased you

concern not only to the newspaper, but as you said in your

TAKING FIVE
The first snow

Our. weather columfi writer,
Chris Gentry, advised me the

of winter would descend upon

his words, coupled with news

game was over, he replied, "I'm
sick—they scored six points on
us."
As you're probably aware, it
was the first time that anyone
had managed to score against
DeWitt this year in five games.

it reflected any attitude on my
part, but because it reflected
an attitude of someone involved
in an event I was reporting— '
the attitude of an adult charged
with a great deal of Influence
over some young people.
And I'm not altogether convinced that it's wrong to place
a great deal of Importance on
winning within the rules of "
society.
Losing is lousy.
It does teach valuable lessons by helping us see our mistakes to better prepare us for

time.

But winning Is important, too.

'Outgoing Transfer Accounts to Other School Districts
I may add, this Is not a protest
on our system of government,
but on the morals of It and of
the men running the defense of
our country. And, as one last
question to you, If a. hand full of

be counted for the lives of 38,593
of our boys??.

of doing away with the draft}
changes in the tax structure;
interest rates; civil rights; and
many many more things,
