THURSDAY EVENING, HARRISBUKG TELEGRAPH JULY 21, 1921. Notes and News of the Day in Carlisle and Cumberland Va OPPOSE MOVE TO NEW OWNERS OF iSTATE APPROVES CERTIFICATES OF HONOR AWARDED 250 STUDENTS AT SUMMER RELIGIOUS SCHOOL TODAY VALLEY ESTATES! BUILDING PLANS 10 TOWN SERVANTS NOTUWMAKERS Ordinance Before New Cuni "berland Borough Council Stirs Lemoyne Residents 1 Xew Cumberland, July 21. tf MCAr Annexation oi a large pari. i i Allen township from Sixth street in New Cumberland to the Heading railway at Lemoyne and up the val iirvitA nnvorinflf an ley as tar as num rea of more than 300 acres, is provided in an ordinance, to come before coujicil on third reading at its regular meeting next montrl. According to borough officials this ordinance will be passed, although there is considerable opposition to it outside of council.

Although the measure has not been passed finally and if it becomes a law will not be effective for several months, it is reported, there is a petition in circu laUon asking council to annex the r.f nun nnuntrv below, the DCLUVll I' main highway running from Lemoyne to New Cumberland. The petitioners ask that this section from the highway to the Susquehanna Itiver be taken in. Would Add to Population Should both ordinances pass and become effective New Cumberland expects to have a population of almost 4,000 and the borough limits include a territory with an area of about 350 acres. The borough recently annexed Rosemont and a part of Elkwood in Lower Allen township. What is back of this move is not definitely stated by members of council and backers of the move.

Considerable opposition to the ordinance is found among a few residents of Lower Allen township near the borough limits of Lemoyne. Lemoyne Makes Claim These residents claim that geographically this section belongs to Lemoyne and that a greater percentage of the persons purchasing lots in a section recently laid out are from Lemoyne. They are becoming indignant over the fact that New Cumberland should take in all this open territory where there are but a few houses in a section more than one half mile in length and more than a mile wide. These persons pointed out that should they care to build homes in this section their children would be compelled to go several miles to New Cumberland to school, while should this section be taken into Lemoyne, where they all claim it belongs, children would have only several squares to walk to a school house. This borough annexation, it is understood, will mean that several large farms being operated in Lower Allen will be in the borough limits.

Doubt as to the eligibility of persons furnishing time or materials to the borough, to positions in the borough government was dispelled by W.

W. Daronecretary Of the borough council, who made a careful investigation of the matter and in so doing came upon interesting cases bearing on the proposition. The question has been under discussion about the municipal building for the past few days. It was discovered by the secretary that no person serving the borough in any capacity can simultaneously hold a borough office. One case discovered had to do with a postmaster who was a councilman.

He was unseated because he sold stamps and stamped paper to the borough. Another was ousted from council because he was employed by a. printer who did work for the borough authorities. Still another lost his seat because he was employed by a man who furnished a horse to the borough. Most of these cases are pertinent to the point that a borough official is barred from doing work or furnishing materials to the borough to whose government he is a party.

Some of the individuals who opposed Secretary Daron in the argument are busy searching the law and consulting lawyers in an effort to minimize his findings. HAS CLEAR FIELD Carlisle, July 21.
