COUNTY POLIO CASES AT MINIMUM IN '48 SAYS J. L. TOWNSEND report received this past week J* L John M. Blackman, 75 years old, who had been seriously ill at his Ringwood home this past week, died on Tuesday evening, Oct. 5. He was born and raised in Kenosha, Wis., and moved to the Ringwood vicinity in 1926. Survivors include the widow, Nellie; four children, Webster, Dolores, Marion and John, Jr., also six grandchildren. Funeral services will be held on Fiftday, Oct. 8, at 2 p. m. from the Ehorn funeral home in Richmond, with interment in Oakwood INCREASED FARES FOR COMMUTERS ARE ANNOUNCED , M ; New Raise Third i Granted Railroad In Recent Months , The great number of 'Mcli«^4HM Chicago commuters received uhfavorable news last Monday with the announcement of* a raise of about 8 per cejjt on Chicago and North Western railway suburban fares, effective on Tuesday. A temporary Injunction restraining the Illinois Commerce Commision from interfering with the collection of higher fares was issued by Superior Judge Frank M. Padden. The commission has turned down the line's request for the increase. Affected by the new order are some 12 and 25-ride tickets and most monthly tickets. The latter will be increased beginning in November. The extra revenue gained from the increase in fares will be placed in an account under the control of the superior court clerk. If the increase should not be approved during a hearing for a permanent injunction, the money will be refunded to riders, according to Judge Pfcdden's ruling. Each ticket will be stamped on the back, said North Western officials, making it a receipt for the increased fares. The order dampened to some extent the high spirits of local commuters who have been enthusiastic in the improvement of local service. During the summer, after several years of petition for better service between McHenry and Chicago, the railroad announced that two morning trains and two return trains in the evening would remain on the schedule throughout this winter. The support of the public would determine whether or not this extra train would remain indefinitely. In addition to the above improved service, a few weeks age more modern coaches, in which fans were installed, were placed on the extra train. More modern and comfortable seats, more foot space and a club room on each coach made for enjoyable riding for those who most make the SEASON TICKETS ARB A rt from S.
