New Sales Tax Starts Saturday, July l 2 PHt CENT TO BE COLLECTED HOUSE PASSES BILL BY SMALL MARGIN *xh PLANS APPROVED FOR NEW WOODSTOCK BANK ' * " . Representatives William M. Carroll V? i©f Woodstock and Richard J. Lyons of ,, Hundelein, Republican members of 'the general assembly from this disstrict, voted against the passage of the .'•-Hew two cents sales tax late Monday. The new tax passed by a vote of 77 -to 74, not a vote to spare. Representative Thomas A. Bolger of McHenry, 3>emocrat member from this district, •oted for the passage of the bill- Tuesday the senate, which passed Ufche measure originally concurred in a minor amendment inserted by the fcouse. In other words, the new law will be in effect on July 1, which falls on , EGx*,, Saturday. On that date the tax f . fcecqmes effective on sales of all re- <4ail merchants throughout the state and presumably the merchants will start adding the tax to the. prices of jftll wares they sell. There ire no exemptions in the law, the only excep- ^ tion being limited to "occasional and • incidental sales" by persons whose main occupation is not the retailing business. fA For Relief First Six Months For six months, that is, until Jan. 1, 1934, the receipts from the new . levy will be turned over to the Illinois Emergency Relief commission for • . its operations among the poor. The proceeds for the remaining eighteen months covered by the life of the two ^year law, the main measure and its companion bills provide, will be devoted to reducing and possibly to eliminating the state tax now levied •on real estate and personal property. The house decision came at the end of a roll call that lasted three hours And a half, one of the longest on record, made so by "explanations" of their votes by many members when •their names were' called. The constitution required 77 votes for passage and it was not until the reading clerk reached the last name on his second time over the list of 152--the call of the absentees--that the seventy-seventh was recorded. The 2 per cent tax differs from the first tax, recently declared unconstitulicnal, in that it is reduced 1 per cent and. is applied to all retailers - without exception. Farmers wjio sold products on their farms were exempted in the first bill. The Supreme court held that this violated the uniformity principle of the constitution. John M' Hoy, conservator of the American National Bank at Woodstock : received -a message Monday from the national banking department at Washington stating that the complete setup „for the new bank being organized in Woodstock hats been approved. This action was hastened through the efforts of Walter F. Conway and Frank J.. Green, who spent several days last week in Washington bringing the bank's case to the attention of the authorities and urging prompt consideration, and their efforts were acknowledged in the message to Mr. Hoy. , Mt-. -Hoy was further infornj^d that instructions for his guidance in completing the organization of the new bank would be sent him at once. The new bank will be called the "National Bank of Woodstock." Upon receipt of the instructions above referred to, Mr. Hoy will hasten completion of the details of organization as much as possible and he believes" it will not be long now tmtil the new bank is open for business. Immediately upon the opening of the new "National Bank of Woodstock"> forty per cent of the deposits of the old American National Bank will be released for distribution to the old depositors. This means about $500,000 which will go back into the channels of trade in this community and will relieve to a considerable extent the stress of the present situation. : AUXILIARY ENTERTAINS EX SOLDIERS AT ELGIN MRS. ERICKSON'S MOTHER DIES AT CALEDONIA Mrs. Henrietta Ramsay, 80 years old, passed away at her farm home at Caledonia, Saturday, after illness of several months. She was taken sick the first of December and continued to grow worse until her death. Mrs. Ramsay died on the old homestead where she had lived for sixtythree years, coming there as a bride . in 1870. Her only son, Glenn, lived with her- She is survived by her son, five daughters, sixteen grandchildren and three greet-grandchildren. 'Mrs. L. A. Erickson of McHenry is a daughter. Funeral services were held at the home at 2:30 o'clock Monday afternoon, with burial at Poplar Grove. Six grandsons acted as pall bearers. Mrs. George Johnson, Mrs. R. G. Chamberlin, Mrs. E. E. Bassett, Mrs. €. W. Good ell and Mrs. H. M. Stephenson attended the funeral. DRASTIC CHANGE MADE IN COLLECTION OF DELINQUENT SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS The collectors of special assessments in McHenry county were called together by Mr. Peteit, county treasurer, on Tuesday afternoon, June 27, for the purpose of explaining Senate Bills Nos. 408 and 409 pertaining to the collection of the delinquent special assessments. The bill provides that all special assessments that are delinquent must be certified to the county treasurer on or before August 15 on forms furnished by the county treasurer. The county treasurer asks for judgment and offers the property for sale. If the property is not bought at tax sale, it will show on record furnished by the county treasurer and the place for redemption of this property will now be made at the municipal collector's office instead of the county treasurer's, as heretofore. This change throws the responsibility of all parts of special assessments back upon the municipal collectors who will have to advertise said notice as required by law and which has heretofore been done by the office of the county treasurer. These bills will add a great saving to the county treasurer's office and the tax payers. The bills were fostered by the leading treasurers of the Btate of Illinois and Mr. Peteit played an important part in the passage of the bills. It is estimated that the bills will Mve in the State'FEF Illinois MOM $150,009 each year. McHenry unit, No. 491, of the American Legion Auxiliary, entertained the ex-service men at the Elgin State hospital on Friday, June 23, with a most worthwhile program.

A1 Ci Smith \^ho has been vice president of the American National Bank of Woodstock, has resigned this position having been appointed as receiver of the First National Bank of Marengo. Mr. Smith assumed his new duties last Wednesday. William Soda, 12, of Chicago was inkjantly killed about 1 o'clock last Wednesday when he was run over with a land roller at the Magnus Nelson farm near Crystal Lake. The boy had come recently to spend the summer at the Nelson farm and it was while unhitching the team that the roller struck him. His father was summoned immediately. A Wauconda physician was called upon last Sunday to remove a fishhook from the head of George Dorse|y, 60, of Williams Park. JMr. Dorsey and his son, Charles, were fishing on Slocum Lake when the younger man accidentally permitted his pasting bait to strike his father's head, imbedding the hook in the scalp. The thirteen-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Sebastian was found dead in the boat house of their summer home at Twin Lakes about 6:30 p. m. last week, Tuesday evening. The lad had returned from a swim and his parents called him to supper. When he did not respond to the call they went to look for him and found him lying In a corner with a strap around his neck.

On that date, those voters who reside on the south shore of the lake west of the city of Crystal Lake Mill vote on the question of the organization of a village to be known as the village of Lakewood. The movement became necessary through the need of some organization for the maintenance <-and beautifying of that part of the Country Club addition which does not lie within the corporate limits of the City of Crystal Lake. Miss Mary Ann Evans, 14, of River Forest, had a narrow escape from death by drowning last Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock when she went down at the Wood beach at Wauconda and remained beneath the water for about five minutes. She was rescued by David Wood, who succeeded in bringing her to the surface after diving several times. Dr. Orton Hubbard and members of the local fire department hurried to the scene and assisted with thet process of revival by prone pressure respiration. Albert Brasch, who is employed on the Albert Meyer farm located six miles northwest of Marengo, was the victim of a painful accident at 10:30 o'clock last Wednesday morning in which his left ear was practically severed. He was backing a tractor into the basement of the farm home which is undergoing repairs for the purpose of removing a large stone. In piloting the tractor Into the basement, it momentarily got out of control and Brasch's head was pinned between <he steering wheel and the house, resulting in the tearing of his ear and badly lacerated face. Miss Bernice White and Willard Saxon of Chicago featured in an accident early Sunday afternoon of last week when the Ford coupe driven by Mr- Saxon hit a stone causing him to lose control of the car.

HAMILTON LEWlt •p A,' Washinton, June 2*6, 1933. It will be 0^-great, Interest that the new forces of Government, which here at Washington we have put into effect, are not new. While it appears that these a/e experiments, we present to the citizens Th a few words what the plan is. It is that all business and followings shall be licensed as to privilege to participate and engage in business. By this system of license, the citizen is privileged to follow the line of his license. If he proceeds without the license, he commits an offense and is punished as committing a crime and his illegal business confiscated. By this license system, the numbers of those in any line of society can be kept in mind and measured to the quantity of~whatever the 8ubject""needs by reason of the business in the locality or that which is demanded by the business situation. In this way we prevent thfe excess of surplus beyond the needs and the dejnand. This prevents the price being beaten down through surplus quantity and bringing loss to the producers. It gives to the producer the assurance of protection against com- , petition in such number as destroys his business while this system enables him to get a price sufficient to prevent his loss and give film a just profit. As the business demand increases, the applications for license in any line increase, and thus business and the profits grow, and work is furnished to, the amount necessary -but wages are protectjed by preventing surplus in excess of demand which reduces the wages below a living value. > Later the system is applied to the farmer in his product, the manufacture? in his creation, the stores in ^their sales, the banking house in their banking; and the producers of every nature will take on a form of a wage protecting character as the order of the new system, and the licensing feature then will end. In the meantime a new addition is put to this system by public works of every nature which government, national, state, city and couhty. require and work la these different- departments will be guided and controlled in the same manner as work and workmanship, is guided and controlled in the store and manufactory. Her^ w»*ngein wake to an interesting fact that how true it is we' have nothing new in Government among mankind, iftie original bills initiating these systems were introduced during the days of the Hoover Administration bj Senator Wagner of New York and Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin. Later came the bill known as the Lewis Bill, from Senator Lewis of Illinois who then combined with Senators Costigan of Colorado, Wagner of New York and LaFollette of Wisconsin. Later, I^ewis, of Illinois began as a new policy to establish the doctrine of Uie privilege of cities to borrow for governmental uses from the national treasury. It will be recalled that the distressed condition of school teachers of Chicago, the policemen and firemen of Chicago, and the County officials and counties throughout the State demanded relief or they were all destined to wither and the communities to fail in their functions. The officials of President Hoover's Administration combining with Democrats and Republicans of highly patriotic principles claimed that once we inaugurated borrowing by cities from the national treasury, we would make a departure in government that would exhaust the treasury of the United States and then induce cities, counties and villages to recklessness and end the collection of local taxes. Still the fight kept up until the final bill that is now the result of the combined measures of Senator Lewis of Illinois, Representative Lewis of Maryland, Senator Wagner of New York, Senators LaFollette and Costigan. Then came the meeting at the White House with tHS Secretary of Labor, Miss F'erkins, and the gentlemen wh4|)| names have just been m'entioned, General Hugh S. Johnson, who was then acting with the Secretary of Labor, and President Roosevelt sitting as Chairman. From this assemblage the present Bill known as the National Recovery Act was born and now goes into effect as one of ttie greatest experiments and histojy-making documents of the United States. Here it must interest all, that measures of this very nature had been adopted in the old governments of Greece in the first united control between Sparta, Ativans and Ionia. There began the system and continued such until the wars between Greece and Rome shattered all systems of possible government. Senator Lewis in his argument before the Senate produced a volume reading from the Code of Hammurabi, reading parts of the law in the days of Babylon and Ninevs. The parallel was so striking in Its relation to the present new laws of America that the whole subject of the ancient origin became the topic of the Senate for the whole afternoon's discussion in the Committee rooms. v The system met success in these ancient governments until Egyptians and the forces which came from what is known as barbarian lands began the wars of contest for territory and thus ended the system which had meant such success to th« fanners, the merchant, the business house and, the home. It is now to be tested if in this present era following our World War our people will conform and are willing to adopt and will prosper under the systems which though new to -us were tried in the experiments of centuries past. Surely the philosopher will observe In the words of Bcciesiastes: "And I looked under the sua'and I saw*** nothing new." » • Xr /• SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS AT BfcHJGE TAVERN Dance enthusiasts of McHenry and vicinity are to be given a rare treat over the coming week-end when Harold Haynes and his Commanders are to appear at the Bridge Tavern for two days, July 2-3.

KAYME BUSS, 3-Sfp. City Collector. FISH FRY At Gee. Lay's Place* in Johnahurf, Saturday' night, Jeljf !•*,/. &-fp- The week-end just past was a dis- ^ 1 astrous one for nearly every com- - munity in the surrounding territory,, with fatalities being reported from automobile accidents and drownings as the highways were crowded with traffic and lakes were filled with, bathers seeking relief in the country from the hot weather. No fatal accidents occurred in this vicinity, alth^igh two motorists were killed on Route 19, about three mil^ ' east of Crystal Lake early Sunday ' mcrning. Henry B. Iversora, 52, of Minneapolis, and his wife, 45, met deatlBi-y/' when the automobile in which thef^?;; \vere riding with two sons and a nephew, skidded into another machine be* tween Crystal Lake and Cary abodt 7:15 o'clock Sunday morning. The party had attended a Century of Progress in Cliicago and were enk^ route home when their sport moctal " coupe, equipped with a rumble seati • is believed to have skidded on the wet pavement. The car crashed into a machine driven by F. E. Chepek and Mr. ani * Mrs. Iverson, who were riding in the L rumble seat, were hurled out onto thU* pavement. Iverson was killed outright and his wife died before an ambulance* reached the scene- Iverson had it;' fractured skull and crushed chest an&vv;': his wife had a skull fracture. Clinton, a son. also suffered #!s: fractured skull and is in a serioiMi condition in the Woodstock hospital. The wet pavement of Sunday more?. - , ing was probably the cause of anoth#^ automobile accident which occurr^H " between the Mat Brown and Peter " Brown farms, east of McHenry aB * Route 20, early Sunday morning. and Mrs. R. Town and a man conft panion were enroute to their summed home at Riverview Park to spend thi; day when their Cadillac left the roajj^ plunged through the fence and ove»« ; turned in a field. The woman was ct||,: and bruised, but, after receiving* medical attention in McHenry, waa . able to go to her summer home fc(Pthe remainder of the day. The otheira ^ were slightly cut and bruised. The, body and top of the Cadillac wet* badly smashed and it was towed inte the Alva Peterson garage for reparrf. Crash At Green and Elm r On Sunday forenoon three Walchet biothers of Chicago were injured when their car collided with a truck, at the intersection of Green street ani Route 20 in Centerville. The occupants of the car were taken to th# , emergency hospital of Dr- Nye an® later to the Woodstock hospital. One man suffered two broken ribs, a acO " ond was severely cut about the fa<ja and his chest crushed and all received bruises. The driver of the truck waf not hurt, although the truck was pvt. out of runriing order. The car was A illys Knight coupe with rumbSs, seat and was just about demolished; with the front end wrecked and glasi shattered. This corner is a very dangerous one especially during the heavy summer traffic and McHenry has been for* tunate that no more serious accidents have resulted from tVie conge^ffed condition of the traffic where there is no signal to govern cars. Sven Hendrickson of Long Lake was the victim of a hit-and-run automobile Saturday when his inert form was found by a passing motorist. He was taken to the Lake county hospital , in Waukejran but died of his injuries about 2 o'clock Saturday. Two Drownings Two deaths from drowning resulted in this ytcinity. over the weekend. Frank B.
