MONDAY. OCTOBER 29, 184S Taxpayers Discuss At Special Meeting i ass county commissioners once again were the center of di..cus ion Friday night at a taxpayerr meeting in the Agricultural Hall Main purpose of the meeting v.as to i;ivo arnusi 1 taxpayer more information concerning co unty expenditures and to discuss the advisability of having an audit survey made of county hooks. After hearing talks by T.ay Johnson, state auditor and Tax payers Leagues., the group decid ed to form a taxpayers organiza tion and elect officers. Officers elected were: William Banning, Union, president; Henry Wendt, Elmwood, vice-president ; and J. Herman Rauth, Weeping Water, secretary-treasurer. A suggestion was made that tin taxpayers organization appoint a committee to consider the advisi bilitv of having a survey made. However, Chris Metzger, Cedar Creek, pointed out that the Live stock Feeders Association hud al ready selected a similar committee t. do the same thing. The group i" ,n voted to authorize the feed e..s association committee to act in taxpayers behalf also. This committee will meet with the county commissioners at the courthouse in Plattsmouth on Fri day evening, November 2. Mem bers of the committee are: Chris Metzger, Cedar Creek, chairman A. W. Ost, Nehawka; W. F. Nolte Plattsmouth; William Bornemeier Elmwood and Fred Rehmeier Weeping Water. State Auditor Ray Johnson pointed out that during the wai yeras the counties couldn't spend much money on roads because ma terials were too scarce. Therefore he explained, most counties built up considerable reservs. Howev-jciQl u. no such reserve was built up v Cass county, he said. ; As I see it, Johnson said "it is the duty of this group to Ftudy the county budget in my office. Most of you are expeciall: interested in three or four parti ular funds. These are the road fund, road drag fund, county high way fund and the bridge fund. In vestigation of each of these is sim ple." Johnson delcared, "I would sug gest that you select a committer to represent you, and to find ou' the questions in your minds, anr" then meet with the Livestock group and we'll get together on this thing. My office will help you in every way possible. Frank Arnold, speaking for the lyxpayers league, explained the type of survey audit his organi zation wants to make for Cass county at a cost of $.T50. "Our survey is not an audit in the same sense of the word as the audit made by the state office. Wt clasify and analyze all expenditur es in detail to show exactly where every cent of money goes.' As the mater stands it is np to the committee, representing both the Livestock Feeders Assoc iation and the newly formed tax payers organization, to decide whether they should spend $350 for a survey or let the state audi tor break down into further detail the audit he has already complet ed on the county. Those who attended the meet ing from Plattsmuoth included Walter Smith, Ruth Patton, Geo rge Sayles, William Puis, and Ro bert Stauffer. Union Miss LaVerne Martin spent Wednesday with home folks. Jerry Paasch took suddenly ill last Saturday and was taken to St. Mary's Hospital at Nebraska City, where he underwent an ap pendicitis operation. He is im 1J oving nicely at this time. Mrs. L. R.

Council Action Stirs Comment Among Citizens Most discusned topic in Platts- r.egistrauon.wiu biit ai p.in. ery, cigarettes, eoap. deck of cards, mouth Wednesday morning was Wednesday with school .in Platts- ,.,2,, 6BJ&11 gamefl, the city council's abrupt about nwth dosing at 3 p.m- to giye oilskin joucb, bandkercblei, wash face in stripping all power from teachers a chance to jaok cl6tn'; CAmpofv; fUg and the recreational planning commit- tee. Many people expressed the opinion that this action waB not exactly necessary and felt that it is a direct slap in the face to the civic organizations which have backed the committee and even pledged monetary support. One member of the committee said: "W are all naturally dls - appointed to see tamgs nappen this way. We were all eur priced too. Most of us knew there is an element of opposition against our plans in town but I guess we underestimated how utrong the opposition is." One prominent professional man made the following statement; If there wbb anything wrong with wItn the resolution passed for the planning committee two weeks ago it could have been worked out and agreed upon without throw ing the whole matter out th window. After all, the committee is made up of responsible citizens and taxpayers who have spent a lot of their own time and some money in trying to do something worth while for Plattsmouth. Their time is just as valuable and their interest in Plattsmouth Just as keen as that of the janitors, box car builders, and bankers, that make up the council." Nearly everyone questioned about the action expressed wonder as to just why such a complete change was made In the council's decision. One man said, "It seems to me to be a rather drastic way to handle matters that so vitally af fect the whole community." Several people laughed when they heard of the decision. "That's mouth." one remarked. "When it comes to civic progress I guess we just aren't there. I thought th e time though the committee rsall) had something."
