Omitted from the picture of the “official family” was town clerktreasurer Mrs. Betty Dust, and she is certainly a very important member of the family. We do hope you will forgive us, Betty. Monarch’s display at the Louisville, Ky., show last week won a nice “first” for the best displaying at the show. Syracuse’s Monarch counter top plant man Charles Searfoss and his crew of men deserve a paton the back for their hours of hard work at Louisville, and they were back last week end to dismantle. B. J., (Mrs. Ron) Silveus was seen limping from a broken toe sustained, now get this, while dancing on the ceiling during the recent Maxwelton club trip to the Bahamas. • We admit that several days of rain on a planned trip such as the recent one, could drive one up the wall, but dancing on the ceiling, well.. >. and understand big John Kroh was the dancing partner. How about this — all criminal suspects arrested in Indiana will soon have their pictures taken “in living color” according to the

Indiana state police this week. Special color “mug” cameras will be installed in each of Indiana’s 92 county jails, hopefully during the next few months. It was 60 on Thursday — now we knew that was too good to last. B. R. and Lola Pinney have returned from a three week Hawaiian holiday. Spring-like temperatures of the 50’s and 60’s this past week kept wreckers busy with a number of cars having to be towed from the area of Glon’s open house and also the lot near - the assessor’s office. Thursday rains did not help the ground situation and some residents reported water in basements. The recent phosphate ban in Indiana brought a note from former Syracusean, Jane Bachman, daughter of Hilary and Janice Bachman. Jane is a Chicago resident now. “Before anyone gets too hysterical about the phosphate ban in Indiana, I thihk the enclosed clipping about the ban in Chicago since July deserves some attention.” The January 16 clipping from the Chicago Daily News said the Sanitary district officials reported dramatic results from Chicago’s ban on phosphate laundry detergents. Sewage treatment plants have discharged 68-per cent less phosphorus into public waterways, it added, and the average daily phosphorus output from three major plants dropped from 20.2 tons to 6.6 tons. Chicago, the first major city to enact an ordinance banning laundry detergents containing phosphates, acted on the basis of evidence that phosphorus is a major factor in polluting water. The report was given by the director of research and development "at Chicago, and given as testimony for a federal court case in which the detergent industry has challenged Chicago’s pioneering ordinance. On the lighter side of the subject, overheard at a recent public meeting in the Lakeland area, was a township official wondering if you could still get a lemon phosphate, to drink of course. And one lady, overhearing part of the conversation, added when she becomes low on her favorite

banned product, she goes to neighboring Michigan and stocks up on a supply. Turkey Creek township assessor Harry VanHemert and his office girl, Mrs. Loren Knispel, are in Indianapolis for three days this week for an assessing seminar. Harry VanHemert was pleasantly surprised last week when a number of friends greeted him in his township assessor’s office upon his return from lunch Friday. Harry was particularly fond of the note he received from Joe and Barbara Todd, as follows: To Harry VanHemert — our township assessor of much charm and with, the proud possessor! When it comes to taxes some people “grind axes,” But Harry’s still around to keep our values sound. So, Happy Birthday, “Chief,” we all like “tax relief”! LBJ dies—(Continued From Page 1) He continued to rise in the political limelight and in 1937 he campaigned for the House of Representatives, defeating his nearest opponent two tp one. He soon became an effective lieutenant of majority leader Sam Rayburn and a protege of President Franklin Roosevelt. He served in the navy during World War 11. Back home after the war he was elected to the Senate. He was minority whip after only three years and in 1953 at the age of 44 he became the youngest minority leader in the history of the Senate. In 1954 when the Democrats gained control of the Senate he became majority leader and was a corhmanding figure in Congress. Johnson suffered his first heart attack in 1955 but made a complete recovery. In 1960 he failed to obtain the Democrat nomination for President but accepted the offer of John F. Kennedy to run for the office of Vice President. Upon Kennedy’s death he stepped into the highest office in the nation. Funeral Thursday Johnson’s body was flown to Washington, D. C., today where it will lie in state at the Capitol. Funeral services will be on Thursday. Surviving with the widow are two daughters, Lynda Robb, 28, and Luci Nugent, 25; and several grandchildren.

5 cents added to, county tax rate

The Indiana State Board of Tax Commissioners finalized Kosciusko county’s total township and town tax rates for 1973 with an addition of five cents to all rates. The increase comes about because a five cent cumulative levy on the county bridge fund was left out of the county budget last summer. Despite the five cent increase, most county levies are down for 1973. Plain township will have an unchanged rate with increases in the west portion of Jefferson, Scott, Monroe, Jackson and Washington townships, Etna Green, Milford, Syracuse,’"Pierceton, Sidney and Warsaw. All others are lower. A break down by taxing units follows: Taxing 1972 1973 Unit I Rate Rate Difference TOWNSHIPS . X 4.
