Four THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Tuesday, Norembte 22,lfIB0 Wa&iA. SO I HEAR... As a n o t h e r T h a n k s g i v i n g Day nears, ; WE ARE THANKFUL-- : TO have reached another Ijjirthday this week. I FOR an invitation from our ^ife and daughter to go out fb dinner on our birthday. {Let's not mention that they forgot to take their pockettiooks). t FOR friends good and true, i TO live in a country where groups battle with each other/ (Son '0-3. E. Conway 423; E. then battle for each other „Vfrhen the chips are down. * THAT it is still necessary for igs to get a haircut now and tjien. S FOR snow plows. (Those ijeautiful white flakes can't be fjir away). • THAT most sports writers S a v e q u i t w o r r y i n g a b o u t Casey Stengel's future. (You Would think Ol' Case was lieadin' over the hill to the poor l$ouse). ' THAT the Notre Dame football season has ended. 2 THAT, Grandma can still tiake the best bread in the world. (Man, that's eatin'!). THAT turkey is still on our diet list. (A blessing without the dressing). Some people are called to their final reward and soon forgotten in the fast pace of a whirling world. Not so with George Justen. So many^people tell us their feelings at the loss of such a good fellow. Just to mention one case -- Harvey and Eva Nye played cards with George and his wife every Saturday night for years and years. That first Saturday night when the chain was broken was hard to face. From "Word Power Made Easy" we learn that a misogamist is a gentlemen who thinks "marriage is an institution -- and who wants to live in an institution?" McHenry basketball fans saw both Warrior teams run away from the visiting teams from Grant High last Friday night. The Grant varsity team was tell so the home boys outrn them, pressed and stole the ball. Many fans took a fancy to our Soph team and predict a bright future. This may be the year to keep an eye on that Crystal Lake five. Those boys have been igaying together since grade school days. * Coach Wagner came to Crystal Lake this year after leading the little town of Shabbonn& into the state tourney last season. •On Wednesday night of this vfceek the Warriors ' travel to Woodstock for the first .conference game. The next game vftll be at home Friday, December 2 when a fast Zion team tfsts Warrior strength. PALACE Mcllenry Moose Mixed League B. Neumann 453; P. Patterson 189-193-552; S. Jager 168; E. M.

TAX FACTS In the tax extension process a county clerk determines the tax rates which, when applied to the equalized valuation, will produce the amount certified to him by the taxing bodies. These rates are obtained by dividing amounts levied by the equalized valuations of the local governments. After the clerk has determined the rate required to produce the law levied, he compares it with the maximum permissible rate, the clerk then reduces the excessive rate to the maximum. For example, if the rate required to produce the amount levied for a funfa is 15 cents and the maximum rate allowed by law is 10 cents, then the county clerk scales the rate back to 10 cents for extension purposes. , Generally, the m a x i m u rii rate limits in effect on Dee. 31, 1951, govern for the extxmsionao* ji taaesk The exceptions are: those of taxing districts having a population of more than 500,000 (they have pegged levies -- a specific amount or rates established by law); those of funds, sUch a£ general obligation bond issue funds and the town fund, which are not subject to limitations in the specific statutes applicable to them; those of furtds established, or of funds of governments created, after Dec. 31, 1951; those for funds which have increased limits by referenda since Dec. 31, 1951; and those for downstate school districts, because they are under the applicable provisions ' of the School Code. If the certificates of levy so require, minimum qualifying . rates must be extended by the clerk to establish eligibility to receive state grants for general assistance, tuberculosis control, equalization aid for education and motor fuel tax funds. The maximum rate authorized when the taxes were levied is the controlling rate rather than the one that may be authorized subsequently. A reasonable amount may be added to the certificate of levy and extended for loss and cost of collection, but the clerk may not add so much to the levy that the tax extended e* ceeds the maximum rate permitted by law. COMPUTER HANDLES LICENSING OF 5 MILLION DRIVERS In a further major move toward "automated" efficiency for the driver's license division, Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentjer has announced that a new powerful electronic computer system has been installed to handle licensing and control of Illinois' five million drivers. The computer is the first of its kind to be installed by any state government. The powerful system uses punched cards, magnetic tape and magnetic disks to process driver information. It can both read and write simultaneously at a speed of sixty-two thousand characters of information per second. The new system; according to Secretary Carpentier, will make it possible to review the entire driver's license file in ten hours, ten times faster than the previous system. "Our main concern," said Secretary Carpentier, "is to speed up the issuance of licenses. But an important secondary fact is that the IBM 7070 system will provide valuable driver statistics, a priceless tool in drafting enlightened legislation for Illinois highway safety." Some 25,000 driver examination reports, convictions, license renewal applications, and accident records will be processed by the computer system daily. After automatically determining the positive driver's identification number for each transaction, the 7070 scans the tape file of 5 million drivers, matching each of the day's transactions against the driver's master record. In illustrating the speed of the new system, Secretary Carpentier pointed out that the IBM 7070 is capable of reading all 1,800 pages of the Chicago telephone directory in three and one-half minutes and adding up all the numbers in eighty-one seconds. WARN AGAINST GIVING BOOBYTRAP TO CHILD ON XMAS "Don't give your child .a booby trap this Christmas!" That's the advice of the National Safety Council, a nongovernmental agency organized in 1913 to prevent all kinds of accidents -- including those involving children's "harmless" toys. "Some of the toys given youngsters as Christmas gifts," said Phil Dykstra, the Council's director of home safety, "can be lethal weapons. "Not all the blame for toys that become hazardous to children after a few hours' use should go to the manufacturers," he said. "Parents have as much -- if not more -- responsibility for toy safety as the manufacturers." While Dykstra said he believes toy makers should keep safety foremost in mind -- "And most reputable toy manufacturers do" -- he recommends the following for parents: 1. Buy toys that do not have small removable parts or such unsafe parts as eyethreatening pieces of metal. "Learn from experience -- and from other parents -- what types of toys most often cause trouble. 2. Buy toys suited for the child at his particular age. "A chemistry set in the hands of a 5-year-old might be a deadly weapon. But it's not necessarily a bit unsafe for an older child who has been properly trained and supervised." 3. Supervise use of toys your children get for Christmas. "If you see that your child is too young for a particular toy," Dykstra advised, "put the toy on a shelf until it's ready for safe use. "Manufacturers are doing their best to produce safe toys. With the help of parents, toy accidents can be virtually eliminated. DR. HENRY FREUND OPTOMETRIST At 136 S.

Some farmers have asked us for information about the recent run-up in the price of gold and the prospects of a devaluation of the U. S. dollar. This is a big order for delivery in three minutes, but we can list a few basic facts . Gold is used as backing for our paper currency and bank deposits. Banks in other countries can' send dollars to the United States Treasury and receive gold in exchange. The exchange rate, or the price of gold, is $36 an ounce. Foreign nations can claim our gold only by offering dollars for it. .They get dollars in several ways: They get dollars when our oitizens pay for imports, travel in foreign countries and invest in foreign business. Foreign nations also get dollars when our government spends to maintain military forces outside the United States and when we provide foreign aid to newly developing countries. So long as the products of our farms and factories are good buys," foreigners will take them in preference to gold. But when our products become overpriced in relation to prices in other countries, they will tack our gold and buy their supplies elsewhere. Foreign banks have taken four billion dollars< worth of our gold in the past four years. Our -stock of gold has been reduced from 23 billion dollars in--196(L to 19 billion dollars recently. Many products of our industries are overpriced in present world markets. The reason is excessive increases in labor costs in our industries. The normal consequence of excessive wage increases is excessive unemployment. But our national policy is to prevent such unemployment by increasing government spending. In order to spend more, the government borrows from banks. Such borrowing has the effect of creating more dollars. For example, in the recession of 1957-58, our government borrowed 10 billion dollars from banks. There are three possible ways to check the run on U. S. gold stocks: 1. We can check federal spending and deficit financing. 2. We can bring our costs under control so that our manutfactuaed produotSr.wiiiL,rbe priced more competitively with products of other nations. 3. We can raise the price of gold, that is, devalue the dollar, so that foreign owners of dollars would rather take our goods than our gold. But the trouble with this last alternative is that other countries could, and likely would, devalue their currency at the same time that the United States devalued the dollar. This action would tend to promote worldwide inflation. What we need to recognize is that governments do not voluntarily devalue their currency. Rather, they are forced '.to do so by nearly irresistible economic forces. These economic forces, however, are often the result of excessive spending by the government itself, or of other unsound economic policies. L. H.
