Belvidere Daily Republican, Wednesday, May 20, 1964 Wallace's Campaign What Does It Mean? By JULES LOH BALTIMORE, Md, (AP)- -The limp carnation was turning brown 'in his lapel, the coffee was cold in the stained cups littering his headquarters, the last echo of elation had died in a hoarse whisper of fatigue, and George C. Wallace's 10-week campaign in the North was, at last, finished, one, Wallace included, could know precisely what it meant or where it would all lead. His own estimation was that the votes he got in Wisconsin, Indiana and Marvland demonstrated a reversal of white symin for the Necathy. civil thights movements. have shown," he said late Tuesday night after all the votes were counted and he was reflecting on the race in his strangely quiet motel room, opposition sectionalism to the not trend a fac- of trying solve everything by federal force.

(AP) The Illinois Association of School Boards estimates that school districts may be losing more than $30 million a year because of a prior claim county governments have on school taxes. The association executive director, Robert Cole, said he will recommend to the Illinois School Problems Commission in Chicago Thursday that legislation be passed to prevent the loss of funds to school districts without hurting counties, Cole and Samuel Bishop, director of surveys, found the loss in a study of 90 counties excludIng- Cook, The loss occurs in this fashion: In County clerks charge a flat rate of 7 cents per line for all description of property in any taxing district, including school districts. County treasurers receive a fee of up to 3 per cent for collection and distribution of taxes, the per cent varying according to the size of county, amount collected and whether there are township collectors.

The county government has the legal right to deduct from tax receipts an amount to cover these costs of extension, collection and distribution of taxes. concern is that districts at the maximum tax rate authorized have to deduct the amount of the fees owed the county for extension and collection," Cole said, districts have no way to recover the amount, he said, Between 80 and 90 per cent of the Illinois school districts are levying the maximum, a school is levying at the maximum rate, we believe that the cost of collection ought to be added to the levy rather than deducted from the levy," Cole said, Th one Lake County district, he three more teachers could be hired with the added funds. A bill proposing school relief from the collection cost failed in the 1963 legislature. Cole proposes that such a bill be supported in 1965, The bill would involve in effect, an increased tax for school districts which levy the maximum rate authorized. Cole proposed that a study be made to determine whether the fees allowed a county for tending and collecting school district taxes are too high, Some school officials have complained that county governments are building jails and highway department buildings with accumulated fees which were in excess of the cost of extension and collection of school district taxes, EXTRA HOURS WALKUP WINDOW BANKING Farmers National Bank Member FDIC PIPING HOT PIZZA DELIVERED in Belsidere 542-8181 REDWOOD RUMPUS ROOM HOSPITAL Notes HIGHLAND Admitted: Mrs.
