Heller, Jr. President John G. Heller -Vice President Chas. E. Holthouse- Secretary-Treasurer Railroad Service Anyone who has traveled in this country or abroad, or who is connected with business and industry, realizes the tremendous importance of good railway service. Decatur has been quite fortunate for a number of years because it has had not only three railroads with good freight service, but also Chicago — New York railroad passenger service. Many people no longer enjoy driving in big cities like Chicago or New York, and would rather, relax for a few hours on the train, ride in and arrive fresh and ready for business or pleasure. In addition, the passenger trains provide valuable mail service for local people. Many businessmen use the “late mail” box at the railroad for last-minute orders which will get next-day service in many different places. Otherwise, the businessmen would have to have the mail in the post office by 7 p.m.; this gives them until 9:30 p.m. or later, for next day delivery in most large cities. There is a good chance that Decatur will soon lose its rail mail service; both the post office and railroad have suggested it. The contract for carrying mail from the post office to the railroad, and back, has been terminated as of May 8. Loss of mail service may mean no more passenger stops. By that time, the railroad will be back on a schedule that would give postal workers receiving the mail by the Erie trains time to work the mail and get it out by the next day; with the present midnight schedule, instead of the usual 9:30 departure, the mail has frequently been late, according to word from the Lima, 0., sectional center. So, the regional office of the postal service has scheduled all mail to leave by truck after 7 p.m., and arrive back in Decatur the next morning about 6:30 a.m., or so. This cuts down on the time that mail from, say, Chicago can be worked, since it will come by truck in the morning rather than by train at night * Those who desire to see the Erie-Lackawanna passenger service and mail service continue should write to W. G. Maxwell, Vice-President in charge of Operations and Maintenance, Midland Bldg., Cleveland, 15, 0., and tell him how you feel. While local opinion cannot completely override the need for the railroad to make a profit, it is very importent, because the railroad is operated under the authority of the public service commission of Indiana, and the PSC realizes that railroads are an economic necessity. In many countries of the world, railroads are operated by the government as a convenience for the people and businesses, rather than as a commercial enterprise. In this country, while they have received some governmental help and much government control, they have continued as a part of private enterprise. • If railroads ever reach the point where they cannot adequately serve the people operating under the private enterprise system, the nation will have to consider Federal or state ownership, as in most other countries.

be more than it was last. April, when personal and withholding taxes came to approximately $5,226,000. * That is the amount, in round numbers, that was turned in by local residents, as determined by a breakdown of the state-wide collections announced by the treasury department, and by local income reports. They show that the amount collected in personal income taxes throughout the state of Indiana totaled $1,111,822,000 last year. Some 0.47 per cent of it was paid by residents of Adams County. Since incomes were higher in 1963, in most parts of the nation, than they were in 1962, the expectation is that the tax collections will be greater this year than last, when they totaled $47.6 billion. On the basis of preliminary reports giving personal income figures for Adams county in 1963, this year’s individual tax payments locally will be close to $5,544,000, a rise of $318,000. The national economy continues to move forward at a brisk pace. It is expected by the administration to rise at an even faster clip during the rest of 1964. The extra push is to come from the cut in tax rates. Despite the fact that the tax rates will be lower, the government predicts that personal tax payments next year will be $1 billion higher. The reasoning — more people will be working and earnings will be greater. According to the budget, personal income this year will total $492 billion, compared with $462 billion in 1963. If incomes in Adams county move up in unison with this national expectation, they will have to rise 6.3 per cent over last year’s.

wb I Ray C. Thomas Seeks Reelection As I. U. Trustee Ray C. Thomas, prominent Gary attorney who has served as an Indiana University trustee for 12 years, has filed for re-election. He has filed a nominating petition signed by hundreds of Indiana alumni. Balots will be mailed to degree holders May 5. TTiomas is vice president of the board of trustees and has a perfect attendance record during his long service. Alumni supporting Thomas for trustee point out the need for continuity of membership on the board of trustees, particularly under a new university president. After next year all other members of the board will have only one or two terms of service. • The alumni also emphasize the need for their large number of graduates in the north central and northwestern parts of the state to have representation on the board in university matters being considered by the Indiana general assembly. Thomas is the only trustee from that area. As a trustee Thomas has stressed improvement of standards and the development of regional campuses. He has been an ardent follower of Indiana football and, as such, has encouraged numerous outstanding athletes to attend I. U. He may have attended more football games than any other alumnus. Thomas is a former instructor of the Amercian institute of Banking and has served as a special instructor at the northwest regional campus of I. U. Alumni feel thia experience has been an excellent background for attaining an outstanding record as a trustee.
