ITS $1,500 » FORMOSA If you're thinking of registering your car in' Formosa for 1954, better take a ^second look at your bank account before starting the process, Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier advised today. If you are paying a $17 a year license fee in Illinois, the fee for you, an American, for the same car in FoFrmosa would be $1,500 a year. That's right! No decimal point. And, if you're still interested, the notary public fee Is $2. (There's only one notary public on the island.) Secretary Carpentier received this information from Clyde W. Organ, former vice-president and division manager of the Central Illinois Light company in Springfield, who is now a representative of an engineering firm in Taipei, Taiwan, Formosa. Organ did not take his car with him, so he is again registering it from Illinois -- for $17. But he had to pay the $2 notary fee.

Hollingsworth, state Director of Finance, announced. According to Holllngsworth, the report shows the state to be in better financial shape now than it was last March when Governor William G. Stratton's budget was presented. Increased tax receipts last spring resulted in a treasury balance $20 million larger than had been expected to be on hand to start the new biennium. In addition, revenue „ collections currently are running ahead of earlier estimates. Residents of McHenry coilnty purchased a total of $191,763 in Series E and H United States Savings Bonds in the month of September, 1953, according to figures received from the Treasury department by Harold J. Bacon of Crystal Lake, volunteer Savings Bond chairman in the county. This represents 87.1 per cent of the county's 1953 quota. Arnold J. Rauen, state director of the TJ. S. Savings Bond division of the Treasury department, announced that sales of Series E and H Bonds in Illinois totaled $31,767,299 in the month of September. This is a 29 per cent increase over sales in September of last year. As of Sept. 30, 77.9 per cent of the state's annual quota for the calendar year had been reached.

Application to the Illinois Commerce Commission for the necessary authority will be made ift the near future. Under the program, the Public Service division, which supplies both electricity and gas in a large suburban and northern Illinois area outside Chicago, would continue its electric operations as at present, while the new gas company would be incorporated as the Northern Illinois Gas company. Willis Gale, Edison chairman, said separation of the Public Service gas and electric operations beg^n many, years ago and this further step is a forward looking move for both the company and the public. "Technical and operating problems of the electric and gas business aie entirely different," he -Said. "Such a segregation' would aid in the solution of the problems confronting each of these growing utilities, and would recognize the stature attained by the gas business which has doubled its revenues since 1945. The new company would be the second largest gas utility company in Illinois both in terms of gross revenues and in number of customers. Further, separation of the gas and electric properties IF rrs WORTH DOING k": t „ is a natural development to improve the effectiveness cf opera tions and to create a more com-, petitive situation in the best interests of customers and employes. This is also in keeping with recent trends t in the utility industry. "If the separation is carried out, a substantial block, perhaps $60,000,000, of mortgage bonds constituting a lien on the gas properties would be sold to pub- | cmpany.

"All of the stock of the new gas company would be owned by Commonwealth Edison company, Management and personnel of the new company would be unchanged from that of the present Public Service gas operations.
