division of the US Army Corps of Engineers, will be doing two surveys. One will be an "approximation'' survey based on existing data and the other a detailed analysis based on the areas determined in need at the meeting The survey attempts to determine a structures exposure to the “base flood elevation." This means the government agency uses this information in determining the premiums charged for new construction The ’‘base flood elevation" is a guideline used by the agency as the level of flooding the federallyfunded program is geared to protect against Among those areas determined to be in need of a detailed analysis were: — Tippecanoe River, from CR 100 N to Tippecanoe Lake — Turkey Creek, from CR 1250 N to Syracuse Lake — Walnut Creek, from CR 3OOS to the mouth of the river — All the major lakes and streams in the county (larger than a square mile), including Wawasee. Barbee Chain and Tippecanoe will be given a "limited detailed" analysis. Schwartz said after the meeting he would decide later on

the exact ramifications of the lakes study. Once this information is gathered, a Federal Insurance Agency representative will present the information to the county and the regular program features. After the initial study is completed and presented, a 90 day appeal period is afforded to the community for review of the study. If revisions are needed, they are submitted to the organization for changes Booked at jail The following persons have been booked at the Kosciusko County Jail: Eddie Dean Cotner, 52. r 2 Syracuse, on charges of public intoxication and malicious trespass with an automobile.

program chairman. She spoke on the subject of the savings and loan industry, past, present and future, tracing its history since 1831. The concept of savings and loan agencies has been to steadily utilize local investors monies for the purchase of home loans in the area. To date, savings and loan associations, at least the one represented by Mort have maintained themselves in a strenuous economy by use of reserves accumulated in better years; by making loans for cars, boats and educational expenses; and by developing an adjustable mortgage rate, as well as reducing accounting and operating expenses. The speaker projected additional problems for the future, not the least of which is the impending withholding tax on deposits. The complications of this law, currently being sent to the House of Representatives, will compound accounting procedures greatly. The resulting added cost will again be passed on to the individual saver.
