WP5; Page Fourteen r - THE McHENRY PLAflJMALER Thursday, (October 8, 1959 Bigger and Better Savings Bonds f I. i M i Mi nn SWAIS Tax Facts President Eisenhower wants the country to know that United States Savings Bonds now pay 3% per cent interest. He posed for this photo just after signing into law a Congressional bill permitting the Treasury to increase interest rates on Series E and H Savings Bonds from the old 3v« rate. This enlargement of a $100 bond is symbolic, of course, but it carries the message that Savings Bonds are "Now bigger and better." The new rate was made retroactive to June 1. In addition, the 40 million persons already holding Savings Bonds benefit by the legislation. The interest rate on outstanding bonds has been increased by at least one-half per cent from now on if held to maturity. "To my mind," the President said, "there is no better way of saving, no more effective way of strengthening our power for peace, than to own United States Savings Bonds. To buy these bonds is to express faith in America. It helps provide the economic strength in both our Government and in individual families on which our freedom depends. I hope that the making of both old and new Savings Bonds even more attractive will serve as a renewed invitation to every citizen to buy and hold these 'Shares in America'."

Il is wise to in many ways, including vision. With the effective date of the new legislation passed by the 71st General Assembly, a justice of the peace will no longer retain fees and costs, according to information released by the Taxpayers' Federation of Illinois. Instead, the fees collected for each month will be paid into the county treasury not later than the 10th day of the following month. The justice will be on a salary basis in the future. This compensation shall be paid by the county, and shall be no less than $600 and no more than SI 2,000 per year, the amount to bo determined by the county board. These salary provisions - do not apply to police magistrates, since their annual compensations are ,to be fixed by the corporate authorities of th£ municipalities. All fees and costs collected by a magistrate for all kinds of service shall be paid to the municipal treasurer on or before the 10th day of the month following the month during which they are collected. Under the new statutes, each justice will report to the county board, by the 15th of the month following each month in which he heard cases, the amount of all fines, forfeitures and penalties he imposed and collected. In the past, this report was made to the state's attorney. If a justice fails to make such a r£port; he is subject to a fine of $25 for each offense. Then, too. he may be requested to furnish his books and papers for inspection or use by the county board. Failure to comply with such a request could mean a penalty of $100. The powers and duties of justices of peace were also somewhat reduced by the last General Assembly. They will no ld^er be members of the board of town auditors of a township. This board will consist of the supervisor, MOTOR SCOOTER REGISTRATION IS DOWN 15 PER CENf Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier said he noted that registration of motor scooters decreased by 4,700, more than 15 per cent, this year, an obvious reflection upon the repeal of the "motor scooter" provision of the Drivers' License Law. "It is interesting to note that the reduction in registrations is parallelled by a reduction in motor scooter fatalities," Secretary Carpentier said. "As of Aug. 31 of this year,' there were three recorded highway, motor scooter fatalities. During the same period in 1958, there, were eight such fatalities. , "There has also been a reduction in the number of accidents involving motor scooters. In the first six months of this year a total of 145 such accidents were reported as compared to the 160 reported during the corresponding period last year." "The figures speak for themselves . . . and for this office. It should now be apparent why this office fought for the repeal of this part of the law," Secretary Carpentier concluded. There were 4,799 fewer registrations for motor scooters in the first eight months of 1955 than during the same period last year. Last year's regi s t r a t i o n o f 3 3 , 4 3 6 w a s t h e peak in this classification, representing an increase of 33^ per cent over the previous year's registration of 24,755. $50,000 SUIT Mr. and Mrs. Carl Antonson of Grove avenue have- filed a suit in circuit court asking $50,000 in behalf of their 16- year-old son, Thomas, who suffered injuries a year ago last July when his motor scooter collided with a car driven by Mrs. Mildred Hinspater of Or- i town j chard Beach.

IMG, New Testament Teaches Science of Government Census takers will be combing Illinois farms this fall for agricultural facts and figures. It will be part of the nationwide farm census which the U. S. government's Bureau of the Census undertakes every five years. The last farm census was taken in 1954. More than 700 Illinois census takers will begin operations on Nov. 11. They will want to know about the number and sizes of farms, acreage and harvest ofcrops, livestock production tfnHinventories, farm expenditures, farm values and mortgage debt. The results, to be published on a county, state and national scale, will give the facts on what millions of farmers are doing. These up-to-date totals should be helpful to farmers in making decisions about their operations. Each farmer will be asked to help directly in the census. About two weeks before the census-taking starts, post offices will distribute a farm census questionnaire to each farmer. He will be asked to fill it out and hand it to the local census taker when he calls. To accurately answer the census questions, farmers are urged to keep a few simple records of harvest information, products sold and major farm expenses. The records -will not only help the census btiHailil but should prove handy tot farmers themselves in manage-" ment planning. Merle W. Willis, Wheeling, will direct census-taking in northern Illinois. ^ SEE IT NOW At Our Special .
