The Times-Tribune from Scranton, Pennsylvania • 13

I THE SCRANTON TIMES, THURSDAY, JULY 26, 1984 Jefferson States It Welcomes Court Action on 13 Golf Issue The Nation withdrew the objections and filed an answer in an attempt to speed up the proceedings, Kurtz said. We welcome anything that will get the matter into court for a legal decision on the issue, Kurtz said. The city is questioning the right of one municipality to tax another but Kurtz said the tax is on the patrons of the golf course, not the city. In the letter to Scacchitti, Kurtz claimed that the city has failed to pursue litigation on the issue of Jefferson Twp.s right to impose an amusement tax on the course, which lies ning on Aug. 8.

Kurtz had informed Scacchitti by registered letter that township tax collectors would appear at the' golf course, along with township police, to begin collecting the tax which was enacted last year. A township attempt to collect the taxes last year created a confrontation between city and township officials and the township agreed to stop the collections if the city went to court to get a ruling on its legality. The township then filed preliminary objections to the citys suit but later within ihe township. Scacchitti, however, said it took six months for Kurtz to file an answer to the city's complaint and that it is up to Kurtz to certify the case ready for trial. He also said he is writing to Kurtz, asking for a copy of an amendment to the amusement tax which Kurtz claims allows the collection of taxes directly from golfers, together with other information regarding appropriate notices under the law.

With that information in hand, Scacchitti said he will be in a better Sale Finalized; Verto, Workers Reach Pact the studios to the new owners. The principal stockholders of Scranton Broadcasters Marcella Megargee Holcomb, Katherine Megargee Collins, Mary Megargee Griffin, and Jean Megargee Reap will continue to own and operate WGBI Radio, which each of the three years. Anthony Harzinski, business agent for Local 1319, Wilkes-Barre, said the union also received improvements in some fringe benefits. The agreement came after bargaining sessions Tuesday and Wednesday.

position to evaluate if the change in the ordinance will impact on the basic issue. The basic issue, Scacchitti said, is whether Jefferson one govern-ment body, is legally entitled to tax Scranton, another government body. In the letter to Scacchitti, Kurtz noted that township officials, at a public meeting July 2, amended the amusement tax ordinance to permit township representatives to collect the tax directly from patrons of an amusement activity, in addition to the proprietor of such activities. A previous two-year contract expired Wednesday at midnight.

Immigration Bill 'Hangs by Thread' WASHINGTON (AP) Legislation to overhaul S. immigration laws is hanging by a thread because of election-year politics, even though it has passed both chambers of Congress, says the bills chief Senate sponsor, Wyoming Republican Alan K. Simpson.

The sooner it is buried and forgotten, the better. Poverty Blamed On Budget Cuts WASHINGTON (NYT) A study issued Wednesday by a congressional research agency estimated that at least 557.000 people were made poor as a result of budget restrictions in social programs that Congress approved at the request of the Reagan administration.
