IDAHO STATE JOURNAL Thursday, January 27, 1955-13 ONJJCENSE FEES Form Letters Rain Over Legislators A storm of form letters opposing House Bill 63 which proposes to up the cost of license plates fell on Bannock county legislators this week. The bill calls for the cost of license plates to depend on the age of the car with a minimum of $10 and a maximum of $25. Tommy Terrell, E. R. Buehler, and Perry Swishcr, while taking False Fund Collector Lands In Jail A scheme hatched in a wcstside bar yesterday to prey on the generosity of local residents today resulted in the arrest of a 38-year- old unemployed man.

Police charged Fred Nuzon, North Seventh, with obtaining money under false pretenses after several householders complained he was soliciting funds "for a needy family by the name of Smith" and claimed to bo representing the Salvation Army. Lt. Francis Kcllerer of the Salvation Army notified police after receiving calls from several persons who doubted Nuzon's story. Kellerer reminded residents that Army solicitors are always in uniform. Police said investigation revealed that the story was fictitious.

Detective Chief Glenn W. Hadley said Nuzon had $4.50 on his person when arrested in the 500 block of West Fremont in the forenoon. A notebook found on Nuzon listed the names and addresses of persons who had contributed, Hadley added. He said the persons identified Nuzon as the man who had solicited them. Nuion told officers that he and five other men hatched the idea in a bar yesterday afternoon to canvass the'city in the phony fundraising drive.

Officers said they had no reports on any solicitors except Nuzon. Hadley said the other five may have decided to abandon the scheme. Nuzon refused to identify them. Tooth Suit NEW BRITAIN, Conn. (UP) -The parents of a little boy sued the city for damages resulting from the loss'ol his two front teeth when he (ell from a bicycle on an oil-slicked street.

a dig at form letters, announced they are against the Bill in its present form, mainly because they feel the fees will be too high. But they pointed out that the legislature probably will enact higher license fees for both trucks and cars, and declared they vould vote for legislation which is fair in distributing the additional fees. In a letter to The Journal they reported: "Today we received an aval- anch of form letters in opposition to H.B. 63 relative to a proposed revision in passenger automobile license plate fees. The letters are so numerous that time will hardly permit answering them individually.

Therefore, we, your Bannock county representatives desire to state our position through the medium of the press. "We are opposed to H.B. 63 in its present form and will not support or vote for it. We feel that the schedule of fees is too high and that better legislation can be formulated. "We concur that the trucking industry must bear their fair share of the tax burden in building and maintaining the highways.

Our investigation indicates that proposed legislation to accomplish this will be forthcoming shortly. "It is apparent to us legislation will be enacted this session which will impose higher license fees for both trucks and passenger cars. Additional revenue is needed to perpetuate a constructive building program and to qualify for financial assistance from the feder- 1 government. Your Bannock county representatives will support legislation which is fair and equitable in distributing the additional tax. "We have this comment to make on form letters.

Any leltef is happily received, but form letters indicate a rather impersonal attitude on the part of the person signing them. They do give the impression of being one person's idea which is being promoted in mass production. It is discouraging to receive letters from good friends and neighbors which are addressed Dear Sir." We would prefer that yoi, write to us as Tom, Dick and Perry. We will do our best to write indivudual replies to those letters we receive that are individually written, TOMMf TERRELL E. R.

Republican Wright favors using railroad mileage schedules rather than the State Department mileage charts that "burned up" some northern Idaho lawmakers.

"Regardless of party our freshman lawmakers have worked hard and dug deep to serve here." The veteran state senator from Bulte county said the mileage quarrel will flare in this and fu ture sessions until the legislature returns to railroad mileage schedules on a from home-to-depot basis and then to the capitol.
