BIGELOWPLAN I WILLINCREASE PROPERTYTAX ass CEDARVILLE HERALD, FRIDAY, j3MEM*Bfc I, UH (C ontinued F rom F irst P age ) ave., frontage to Main and to the corner o f Barr alley, there is a unit o f $21,000 valuation, to which these properties would have $409 added to their present tax bills.- Starting with the Bird block and estate holdings along East side o f Main street to Bates alley, and we have a unit o f $20,500, and these five owners would have $406 added to their present combined tax bills. If church property is to be taxable under this plan, then the property from Cedar to Chillicothe sts, West side of Main will be in the pension 'tax unit and the $400 yearly tax add­ ed to the combined tax bills o f four owners. We made hasty examination of other towns in the county and find that prop­ erty owners will have the same ex­ perience as here. ’ In Jamestown we could start in the main square and go in either direction the streets run and find $20,000 units that would have the new. tax levied against owners. In Xenia city on Green st., from the Citizens Bank to the Y. M. C. A. property some six different owners would find .themselves with nearly $100,000 valuation, or live units, bring­ ing an additional tax more than $2,000 to what is being paid.. From the Xenia National "Bank south on Detroit to the corner of Second street, we find nearly three full units, or about $1,200 more tax. From cornei’ of Main north, west side, to Market street, we find equal to five units and these property own­ ers would pay an additional $2,000 yearly to their present taxes. The ITei'ald has grouped the plans without exposing valuations of any single property owner that the public can get a true picture o f what the single tax ■plan fostered by Bigelow would levy on certain-property owners. There are other units here and else­ where that, can be given but enough is placed in black and white to convince the public o f the injustice o f the Bige­ low plan of financing old age pensions. Present old age pensioners should keep in mind that, the Bigelow plan outlaws all other forms o f state pen­ sions in this state. Bigelow in his broadcast lias not said much about that feature in his talks.

At the same time, officials indicated the county will be “ lucky" to make financial ends meet this year. The. new budget compares with actual governmental expenses of $195,487.33 in 1937; 0197,308.70 in 1938; and $200,708.50 for 1939, the first six months actual and the last half estimated. / No levy was made for bond retire­ ment because holdings o f the interest and sinking funds, arc adequate for this purpose next year. Nor was the county tax rate increased. It will re­ main unchanged at $3.10 per $1,000 property Valuation and is expected to yield $133,000 from real estate. While the budget, on paper is balanced, officials said the county’s income for governmental operations has been shrinking the last four years, owing to loss of motor vehicle rev­ enue. A $68,000 general fund balance in 1935 has gradually been reduced and is expected to vanish entirely this year, For Rent—Four-room bungalow on Route 72. Cali 132 F 12, Cedarville.
