Little change In state equalization factor Increases in assessed valuations in Cook county will make little difference in the state equalization factor, which will be 1.40, compared to 1.41 last year. This means that the realty valuations fixed by the office of Cook county assessor will be boosted two-fifths. A similar boost in valuations will probably be repeated each year hereafter, and persons filing schedules can accept that fact In determining their probable tax, The Increase In assessed valuations will not lower the tax rate of the individual where local taxing bodiea increase Jax levies.

Sullivan, 809 E. Davis was acquitted of selling liquor to a minor by Chief Justice Thomas Kluczyinski in Cook County criminal court last Friday. THE CASE was prosecuted by the State's Attorney who charged that Harry Hartleb 16, purchased six quarts of beer and two pints of wine from Sullivan at his Parkway Liquor Store in Arlington Heights. The liquor was bought after the Palatine- Wauconda football game September 22, 1951. The complainant, Dr.

Harry Hartleb of Palatine, charged that his son purchased the liquor around 9 p. m. and then with some friends went to Hostile where Janet Mauser, 16, wns giving a party, According to the state's witnesses the liquor was drunk here with the girl's parents' knowledge. This was the same case presented before an Arlington court a few weeks ago, but the cast' was postponed and continued by the defense for so long that it was finally dropped in favor of the grand jury indictment of Sullivan. FOLLOWING the state's case, Sullivan's attorney, James Maher, called Sullivan and his wife, Sarah Jane Sullivan, to the stand.

CLINT LYMAN, toastmaster for the evening, introduced Ellis Fuqua, one of the foremost trial lawyers in northern Illinois, who presented Bruno Waara with the president's pin. The highlight of the evening came when John King, state Jaycee official and youngest member ever elected to the Illinois legislature, presented to President Waara the charter certifying the official status of the local iroup as a member of the U. S. unior Chamber of Commerce and of the Illinois Chamber of Commerce. King then paid tribute to the chapter by citing the swiftness with which ifc had launched upon a civic service through its campaign to publicize and secure pledges for the forthcoming blood drive.

Piszczejr, executive director of Suburban Cook County Tuberculosis Sam'torium District, told Paddock Publica- ions Wednesday morning, "It is aim of this mobile x-ray service to discover TB in the minimal or first stages." If discovered then it would probably only require six months or less hospitalization and treatment, and the person would then be able to go back to regular way of living, IF DISCOVERED in the moderately advanced stage it takes anywhere from six months to a pear and a half of treatment before the patient recovers.

When discovered in the far advanced stage the patient may need several years of treatment, with a possibility of never recovering. Approximately fifty per cent of the above mentioned cases were found to be in far advanced stages, which means the persons have had the disease at least three or four months. With these facts and figures citizens should be able to realize the importance of having an x-ray at least once a year.

With the prefix CLearbrook 3- the new phone numbers have been released to subscribers. Many of them are ordering stationery with them as well as using trucks on which is painted the dial number. COMPLETION of the building within 10 months is surprising to many persons interested in the erection of homes and commercial buildings. Construction work on the phone building has been up to schedule since the day it was started.

Judge Kluczynski, in handing down his verdict, said that under Illinois law person cannot be prosecuted unless he is the licensee. Parkway Liquor's license is made out to Robert W. Sullivan. The judge said this law should have been changed long ago. He said: "1 am satisfied the liquor has been sold, but there seems to be a question about the licensee selling it, therefore the verdict is 'not guilty'."
