LETTER

EDITOR

(Th« Daily Banner published an editorial this week that expressed appreciation to the Common Council of the city for taking steps toward annexation. In the editorial The Banner referred to the consideration of annexation as a step in the right direction for the Council and the city. In answer to the publication, a citizen has written the following letter.) To the Editor: Hie Greencastle City Council has indeed taken a step—a step in the shadow of George Meany, Walter Reuther, et al, who advocate compulsory unionimi for all workers whether they want to Join or not The Council has decided the outlying residential areas are enjoying the "benefits” of city living but aren’t paying the "dues” those inside the city limits are assessed. The answer, of course, is obvious— annex them and their assessed valuations! Oh, yes. Council members ery. "Look at the services they wffl get” Well, let’s look at those sendees: L City sewage? The privilege of paying the high sewage rate in Greencastle is definitely no advantage. S. Police protection? Even with two patrol ears, the city police can’t adequately cover the present city limits, let alone new areas of sparse population. S. Fire protection? This might be one advantage, but the Greencastle Township tax rate includes support of the Township fire truck. 4. Garbage pick-up? When a garbage disposal costs about $50 Installed, who has garbage anymore? 5. Trash and can pick-up? Tee, this is an advantage. 6. Street maintenance and care? Personally, rn take my chances on the County Highway crew clearing the roads in the winter before the inadequate snow removal equipment of the city gets around. T. (Sty water? This might be an advantage if water lines were not already run to most outlying areas and PAID FOR BY THE RESIDENTS OF THOSE AREAS. Some of these "sendees” are not even adequate for the present residents of the city, and would merely be stretched further when new areas are annexed. This is not only unfair to the new areas but is also depriving the people now in the city by overextending city services. The Council should make city living attractive enough for residents outside to want to be annexed, just like a union should sell workers on the reasons they should join instead of forcing them to do so. Most people don’t mind spending their tax dollars for value received, but the present "advan-

tages” of city living are not worth the added $2.14 property tax rate. Yet another tactic has been taken from the steel workers book when they strike only one company at a time until all eventually give in. It’s the old "divide and conquer” bit. First it was Madison Street, now it’s Sherwood, next the others, one at a time (South on Rd. 43, West Walnut St, Cemetery road—the list can go on and on). Let the Greencastle City Council know your views—call them now. They are: Ernest Collins, Robert Poor, Bob Jackson, Tim Grimes, and Bob Eppelheimer. Yours truly, James H. Poor

Kill 60 Intruders LOURENCO MARQUES,, Mozambique UPI — Portuguese security forces have killed more than 60 terrorists who slipped across the frontier from Tanzania, a government communique said Thursday.

Physician is Called In Draft CHICAGO UPI — Dr. David T. McCann, 32, has weathered the long, often lean years it takes to become a practicing physician. He, his wife and seven Children have a new home and new furniture. This was the time he had dreamed about during the thousands of hours of study and training. But the new home and new furniture and the growing practice will have to wait. McCann has been drafted. He said Thursday he has been ordered to report to Ft. Rucker, Ala., Monday. “There was no mistake,” he said. His letter of induction “was pretty well addressed and it was to me, all right. I knew there was a medical draft on and I had no military service.” McCann has no complaints. "Actually,” he said, "our acquaintances were more upset — emotionally Involved — more so than we were. It must be unusual. People seem taken aback by it” Mrs. McCann was "pretty discouraged” when the draft notice came, the doctor said. "But she’s a fine gal and is coming along all right” *T hope the children ranging from eight years to four months and I will be able to join him there in Alabama and that housing for us will be available,” she said. McCann, who says he hopes the war in Viet Nam will end soon, will go in with the rank of captain with pay and allowances totalling $705.53 a month. He doesn’t expect any finanoini crisis because of his Army duty.

Mass Exodus By Red Advisers ACCRA UPI—Russian and Chinese Communist advisers to deposed President Kwame Nkrumah continued their mass exodus from Ghana today as an almost festive, anti-Communist mood settled over this city. Thousands of Ghanaians staged colorful street demonstrations Thursday night in Accra and other cities in a massive show of support for the antiCommunist military regime that toppled Nkrumah’s nineyear rule last week. The new government, headed by Maj. Gen. J. A. Arkrah, meanwhile, had no immediate comment on the announcement from Addis Ababa Thursday that Guinea President Sekou Toure had handed over his government to Nkrumah. Nkrumah has vowed that he will overthrow the new Ghana government and Guinea would provide him with a base of power to stage a possible coun-ter-coup. The Communist technicians, teachers and diplomats, long a familiar sight in the streets of Accra, began packing up earlier this week and most of them had left the country by today. Most Ghanaians, who had distrusted the Russian and Chinese visitors because they kept to themselves, made little effort to contain their joy at seeing the Communists leave. A strongly anti-Communist and particularly anti-Chinese spirit prevailed in the city. In Memory In loving memory of Ruby Zurich, wife, mother and grandmother, who departed March 4,

Awarded $150,000 For 'Paladin' Role

PROVIDENCE, R. I. UPI — A Rhode Island man who claims he originated the Western character "Paladin” has been awarded $150,000 in a suit against the Columbia Broadcasting System. A U. S. District Court jury Wednesday ruled in favor of Victor deCosta of Johnston, a former rodeo rider and horse trader who bears a marked resemblance to Richard Boone, the actor who portrayed the black-garbed Paladin in the popular television series “Have Gun, Will Travel.” DeCosta had sought $2 million from CBS and several codefendants, alleging unjust enrichment from his idea, infringe-

ment of a common law trademark and unfair competition The jury of 10 men and two women awarded DeCosta $100,000 from CBS, $40,000 form CBS Films Inc., and $10,000 from Capital Cities Broadcasting Corp., which owns WPROTV, the Providence affiliate of CBS. DeCosta claimed he originated the character in 1946, nine years before the television series was created. He performed as Paladin in horse shows and rodeos in southern New England, wearing black westernstyle clothes. He said he also began handing out a calling card bearing the legend, “Have Gun, Will Travel.” During the trial, CBS witnesses claimed the television character Paladin was created in Hollywood late in 1956 without any knowledge of DeCosta’* strikingly similiar characterization.
