RHj&L ESTATE RD ENDORSES TAX MOVES The McHenry county Board of Realtors endorses one national move to enable communities to tax federal real property and another to give full veteran rights . to GI purchasers of farms, it is announced by T. P. Mathews, board president. The board leader explained his organization supports policy statements of the National Association of Real Estate Boards Which has come out in favor of: 1. A revision- in federal law to allow communities to receive a tax equivalent from federal real property such as Warehouses & and office buildings Which receive services from local government. 2. A change in the GI Bill to enable qualified veterans to enjoy the same mortgage loan guaranty benefits in the purchase of a farm as. are. .now a*- vailable to the veteran purchasers of urban and suburban homes. . In most cases, the national government does not pay communities any equivalent of taxes, says the board. In those cases where it does contribute something, the - payments are inequitably small. GI legislation now permits the ^veteran buyer of an urban home to receive 60 per cent guaranty of the loan up to a maximum entitlement of $7,500. Veterans who buy farms, however, receive only ff 50 per cent guaranty with a maximum-entitlement of $4,000. Mr. Mathews announced also that his organization is joining in the national drive of NAREB to raise its membership to "55,55$ in '55". The local realty body, he said, is seeking to enlarge its rolls of qualified brokers who, upon being admitted, will be entitled to use the term realtor, which is registered as a trademark with the U.S. Patent office. Upon \ joining, the new realtor pledges himself to live by the NAREB's code of ethics -- representing to the realtor what the Hippocratic oath means to the physician. The formal pleflge to the realtor's code binds the new member to deal fairly in all his transactions, and to work for the protection of property rights. The new member automatically becomes a member of NAREB upon joining the local board, and is thus entitled to use the term realtor. McHenry Amon§ Illinois Cities Formally Incorporated In 1855 It was 1855, but at least one of the problems confronting the General Assembly that year has a modern ring to it sounding much like the "blue ballot" drives of the last few years, Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier says. One hundred years ago, the Legislature passed a joint resolution providing for a refereh-. dum on calling a convention to revise the state's Constitution, and the argument thai, as; it was in recent years, Was. that the Constitution was too Hard to amend, Secretary Carpentier said. When the question, of. calling the constitutional convention was presented to the people ..in the general election of 1856, it yvas defeated, he added. " The original copy of the resolution, together with about 100 other litems of legislation passed' by the General Assembly In 1855, is on display in the Archives building in an exhibit prepared by the Archives section of the Illinois State Library, Mr. Carpentier said. Another measure passed by that Legislature decidedly does not sound like modem times, Secretary Carpentier said. That was the appropriation of $7,000 to purchase the ground and to build an arsenal for the safekeeping and preservation of state arms. The structure which Shop at Home and SAVE! DR.
