Vital charter amendment vote June 21
St. Johns residents have another date at the polls next-Wednesday where the city commission Is asking for approval of a
charter amendment spelling outataxationllmitaUonof 20 mills.
Approval Is vital to operations of the city, the commission says.
The special election — the second on this topic in just over
two months — pertains only to the charter amendment and does
not Involve directly any other issue.
The present city charter is not specific about a mlllage limitation, and legal interpretations of it as it stands now say the
city thus can assess only 10 mills for general'operations.
i
ST. JOHNS HAS BEEN ASSESSING 16 mills for the past few
years and has not levied less than 10 mills since 1933. Commissions since that time apparently have regarded 20 mills as
the effective millage limitation.
v
'There's no doubt we can't run this city on 10 mills the way
people want it run," Mayor Charles Coletta stated in April
when the commission decided to put the matter up to another
vote. A similar proposal was defeated by a 2-1 margin April
11, but commissioners felt opposition to a companion fire hall
issue then adversely affected the understanding of the charter
problem.
Polls will be'open from 7 a.m. to 8 p,m. next Wednesday,
city will break down the 16 mills, levying 10 mills for general
operations, 3 mills for retirement of the water Improvement
program bonds, 2 mills for garbage and rubbish pickup, and 1
mill for library operation. Use of the tax money would be
limited to just those purposes. .
If the charter amendment proposal is approved by voters
next Wednesday, the 16 mills will be levied as one figure, and
used to pay off the water bonds, collect garbage and rubbish
and provide for library services as weU as all other city services. This is the way the city has been assessing and expending
the tax money in past years. '
"This is the much more flexible way to do it," Mayor
Coletta said. "Then we will be able to use whatever funds
necessary to do a particular Job right."
June 21, at the municipal building. Voting places for both precincts are In separate rooms in the basement of the building.
The wording on the ballot will be:
, 'SHALL SECTION 1 under General Taxation In the City
Charter be amended to read:
"Section 1. The subjects of ^taxation for municipal purposes
shall be the .same as for state, county and school purposes
under the general law, and the amount annually raised shall
not exceed two per centum of the assessed valuation.*
City officials point out that St, Johns Is basically a 15 to 16
mill city and they doubt there will ever be a need to assess
even, close to 20 mills for general operations. Budget increases
In past years have been taken care of primarily by steadily
rising property values, resulting In more tax income at the
same tax rate.
The commission has already adopted a budget for the 196768. fiscal year that calls for a 16-mill tax rate — .2 mill less
than last year — and 16 mills will be levied despite the outcome of the June 21 election, Theelectionwlll, however, affect
how the 16 mills is used next year.

BESIDES CAMPAIGNING to clarify this issue In the minds
of voters, city commissioners and members of a special citizens
committee are emphasizing the importance of keeping it separate from talk about urban renewal.
Strong vocal opposition to urban renewal downtown appears
to be threatening against a yes vote on the charter amendment,
and the commission is trying "to prevent the urban renewal
IF THE CHARTER AMENDMENT proposal is defeated, the

question from dragging the completely separate charter amendment down.
Defeat of the charter amendment would kill urban renewal,
city commissioners agree, but they point out there are other
and more logical ways to stop urban renewal if that's what the
public wants. A majority voice of opposition at a public hearing on urban renewal, or even a referendum, can reject urban
renewal without subjecting the charter amendment to defeat.
"THE OPERATION OF OUR CITY Is at stake," the commission said. "If we have to break our millage down into 10, 3,
2 and 1, we will not be able to provide the services with the 10
mills for general operations that our citizens have been used
to or demand of us."
A special assessment procedure will be one of the items affected by the election. The commission recently tabled a water
main assessment decision until after the election; If the charter
amendment is OK'd, they likely will proceed as in the past by
charging the affected property owners only a percentage of the
total cost of putting in the main while the city at large absorbs
the rest; if the amendment is defeated, property owners seeking water, sewer and curb-and-gutter improvements may have
to pay the entire cost of putting it in.
'We can only do so much on 10 mills,* the commission said.

A valedictorian's hopes for her classmates .
Making the possibilities of today the realities of tomorrow
By KATHY BASHORE
Valedictorian
St. Johns Senior Class of 1967
I remember each day when I came home from elementary
school one of the first questions my mother would ask me
was, "What did you learn In school today?* As I began my
valedictory speech, this question returned to me and X began considering, "What have I learned in school these past
13 years?"
"What have we learned In the past 13 years?* The most
obvious Is the quantity of factual Information that we've
gathered. These facts range from the simple information
we learned In elementary school to the complicated formulas
and concepts we've dealt with in high school.
These facts are essential) they are our tools for college,
career, and life. But it is estimated that we forget over 50per cent of the factual information we learn, so It Is obvious
that the learning of facts is not the sole aim of education.
Many of the Important things we 'learned will never be
measured on a report card, yet they are a vital part of our
education and lives*
I t PAYS TO SHOP AT
IN EACH SUBJECT WE'VE studied we have been required
to learn a set of given facts. Our success or failure to learn
these facts was reflected on our report cards—sometimes
creating disastrous results. For example, in science courses
we learned charts, formulas, valences—many of which we
will forget, but what is' more Important, we have learned to
apply an attitude of reasoning, inquiry and logic.to situations
we may encounter. We will not be the victims of superstition
and Ignorance, because we have learned the theory of cause
and effect. We have learned that as reasonable human beings
we can change our conditions and environment.
In the humanities, literature, art and music, again we have
been given a quantity of information, but more important we
have learned how men think. We have learned how others
have dealt with such basic questions as 'What is good?"
•What Is evil?* "What Is life's purpose?" And by reading
the opinions of others, we are able to reach our own conclusions and form our own opinions. Music and art have
shown us how artists of the past expressed their ideas of
life through their medium of expression and proved there is
more than one way In which we can express ourselves.
The social sciences have taught us historical dates,
famous people, economic theories, systems of government.
With these learnings we are able to decide which system of
government Is best. Knowing why democracy is the highest
form of government mankind has ever reached gives us the
awareness of why it's worth preserving at any cost.
In vocational courses such as shop, agriculture, homeec,
typing, we are given practical skills which will lead to
various jobs and careers. These skills can be measured;
but the attitudes toward workmanship, competition, and perfection cannot be measured**
AS WE CAN SEE, MUCH OF WHAT we have learned was
in the classroom; however, an important part of our education takes place in the area of human relationships—in
learning how to get along with others; How important this is
for all of us to learnt A man can have volumes of stored
knowledge within him, but if he does not know how to get
along with his fellow man, he can never achieve true success.
We must all develop the sense of responsibility, care,- respect and knowledge of each other. At the same time that
we admire the talents and abilities of others, we should discover our own talents and develop them to their highest
point. If all of us use our individual talents to the best of
our ability, we can best contribute to all mankind. We will
then be able to look beyond the differences In talents,
Intelligence, and knowledge of each other and seethe human
core that makes us all one. The happiness of our future depends upon a strong unity of mankind.
So, as we learned to get along with others, we learned to
understand ourselves. We learned of our responsibilitiesresponsibilities which if not carried out will weaken the
unity and brotherhood of mankind.
And finally, we have come to realize, as author Eric
Fromm once stated, that *Man Is gifted with reason; he is
<^l/[aa^J\Lnnon
KATHY BASHORE
life being aware of itself} he has awareness of himself, of
his fellow man, of his past, and of the possibilities of the
future." "*
Yes, everyone of us is aware of the possibilities of the
future, and so we set our goals to make our dreams come
true. In the words of the poet Tennyson, In his poem
"Ulysses," our life-long goals should be to pursue knowledge
and experience—"to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
And as we part tonight, my wish for everyone of you Is
that you will strive to make the possibilities you are aware
of ^oday—your hopes, your dreams, your greatest desires—
that you will strive to make these possibilities the realities
of tomorrow.

Ovid council tables
zoning study request
Ovid - The Ovid Village Planning Commission has Invited the
members of the Ovid Village
Council to attend their June 27
meeting In an effort to better inform the trustees of the commission's plans to hire the TriCounty Regional Planning Commission to develop a planning and
zoning ordinance for the community.
Such action was taken after the
council had on June 8 tabled a request by the commission for $3,500 to cover cost of such plans.
Earlier, at their regular meeting
June 5, the council had shunted
aside the same request.
The Indecision of the council
seems to center around whether
the planning commission could
develop such a plan.

A proposal that has been under
study by the village trustees —
that Ovid village become a city
—was also advanced by the planning commission at the June 5
meeting.
The planning commission was
established last September as an
outgrowth of a federal directive
requiring such a commission before the village could obtain a
$427,000 grant for a sewer project.

floral pictures.

New
fire pact
gets OK
The City of St. Johns, and
Bingham Township settled on a
new fire protection contract last
Tuesday evening, slightly less
than a month before the current
contract expires June 30.
In making the new agreement,
Bingham paid the city $4,194.82
—representing the difference between their current contract and
one the city has Insisted on since
they renegotiated contracts with
other area townships four years
ago.
The commission accepted the
Bingham offer. No computation
was made, city officials said, of
the exact amount which the commission thought should be due.
THE CITY HAS INSISTED the
difference be paid—with interest
—before any new fire contract
was written. The payment last
week and the agreement on the
new contract apparently settles
the matter.
The new contract calls for an
$800 standby fee for the year
starting July 1, plus charges of
$100 for the first .two hours or
parts thereof which firemen are
out, and $50 for each additional
hour or part thereof.
The only item on the agenda
which was expected to produce
any excitement last week didn't
get any conclusive action. It was
a proposed plan to increase water
rates for the heaviest users of
water. The proposed ordinance
change was tabled for further
study.
The city commission approved
a resolution annexing to the city
property owned by the St. Johns
Public Schools at the school site
on Sickles Street west of Lansing
Street. That's the new high school
location; part of the school's
p r o p e r t y previously was in the
city and part of it was in Bingham Township. Three days before
the city's action, Bingham Township had released the property,
opening the way for annexation
to St. Johns.
In other business:
THE COMMISSION amended
the city zoning ordinance to place
a "commercial" designation on a
20-acre parcel of land owned by
Bernard Feldpausch on US-27
south of Townsend Road. It was
recently-annexed to the city and
fiad'nb official* zone'? v;/- **
, The commission granted a oneyear dance hall permit to Mr and
Mrs Daniel Salazar of St. Johns
to operate the Villa Dance Hall
at 107 W. Railroad Street. '
All-day, two-way t r a f f i c on
McConnell Street between Clinton
Avenue and Church Street (back
of the high school) was authorized by i the commission In a permanent t r a f f i c order. Thrutraffic was prohibited there during the school year.
Williams and Works, engineers, told the city the trouble- >
some sewage lift station on South
US-27 is sufficient to handle increased sewage expected to r e sult when the new St. Johns High
School is completed.
A JULY 5 HEARING has been
scheduled on a petition by residents In the White-Street and
East State Street area to have
an alley there vacated. The alley
runs from White to Baker between
State and Walker. It does not
a c t u a l l y exist, although it Is
plotted now as an alley.
, The c o m m i s s i o n granted
approval for the use of the room
over the St. Johns Fire Department hall by the St. Johns Golden
Glovers for workouts.

students to meet;
A reunion of all former students and teachersof Cedar Lake
school Is being planned for Sunday afternoon, June 25.
The 2 p.m. potluck is being
planned by Mrs Richard Archer,
a former Cedar Lake student and
Mrs Kenneth Wyrlck, Cedar Lake
teacher. The idea for the reunion
came from another former student, Carolyn (Hartsuff)Perrault
of L'Anse.
This past school year there
were 32 students attending the
school and two were graduated
from the eighth grade.
Students and exterior of school-1903
CEDAR LAKE school is located on St. Clair Road in Victor
district No. 8. It is on the edge
of the St. Johns School district
and was .named after the lake in
the back of the school.
The students attending Cedar
Lake, which opened in 1873, will
be going to a pew school on Green'
Road sometime-during the next
school year.
,MANY FAMILIES in the area
have their third generation attending the school.
Although there will be some
sadness when the school closes,
most of the parents are anxious
for their c h i l d r e n to attend a
modern school.
Attending the new school they
will miss things like going back
to the woods and cutting their own
tree for Christmas. Mrs Archer
said the cedar trees weren't the
prettiest but they were always
fragrant.

Fish would be the main source

What marvelous buildings has man erected through the centuries. "What lofty
and inspiring structures has he created.
But how many of these glorious accomplishments stand intact today? "We can
see famous ruins the world over — mute reminders that what man builds is not
permanent.
Today our buildings contain great slabs of concrete holding hidden wire and/'
steel that will not break with stress. But can we be sure that today's creations will be'
standing a hundred years or two hundred years from now? Of course not.
Of what can we be certain? What does last?
Certainly the gifts of God tower indestructibly today as they have for generations . . . the things of the spirit — faith, hope and love. Our church buildings may
crumble or be destroyed, but the fellowship of believers is perpetual throughout the
ages.
Discover for yourself the great spiritual truths. Discover for yourself through
His Church, those things which endure forever.

Lets keep the issues Separate
It has been disturbing to watch a couple of
side issues being used by opponents to cloud
the real issue being brought before St. Johns
voters next Wednesday.
* Urban renewal and the public image of city
administrators are not the issues at th,is
election and, can only destroy the city commission's attempts to operate the city during the next year in the most economical
way possible.
The election next Wednesday is for one
purpose only; to establish a<millage taxation
limit of 20 mills for general operation of the
city by amendment of the city charter.
The limit is no different than what the city
has been operating under since the charter
was written. Under the belief of a 20-mill
limit in the past they have assessed no more
than 16 mills; under the 20-mill limit they
are asking to be spelled out, the commission plans to assess only 16 mills.
The only reason the election on the question was called was to spell out in black and
white the exact figure, something the attorneys said should be done even though it
wasn't in the past.
The request is simple, and it should get a
simple "yes" vote at the polls next Wednesday, June 21.
But the simple question is being clouded
by some side issues being dragged into the
picture by opponents of urban renewal. They
have found out they can kill urban renewal
by killing the proposed charter change. So
they want to kill both.to be sure one is dead.
Therein lies the shame of their thinking.
Urban renewal can be killed—if that is what
they truly want—in at least two other ways
which make more sense. They can call a
referendum on the urban renewal problem
or they can convince the city commission
that most people don't want urban renewal.
Those ways are the democratic ways j?rovided by even the urban renewal proposal
itself. A YES VOTE oh the charter amendment next Wednesday D O E S NOT M E A N
URBAN RENEWAL IS "IN." Tne city commission has to hold a public hearing on the
proposal, and at least one commissioner has
told us he won't vote for it if the majority of
the people at that hearing don't want it.
That's some assurance, but there's still
another "out" <if folks have"'that little faith in
the commission. They can call a referendum
on the issue
That seems like plenty of insurance without using next week's charter amendment
proposal as the whipping boy. Let's keep the
issues separated. Handle each one independent of the other and let the will of the peoplebe clear on each one—not clouded.
,
The issue at hand is efficient operation of
the city. How 'can the city most" efficiently
use the 16 mills it will levy next y e a r ? Must
it spread 10 mills for general operation,
three mills for water program debt r e tirement, two mills for garbage and rubbish
collection, and one mill for library purposes? If the vote of the people is "no," this
is the way it must be done, and those three
mills, two mills and one mill can't be used
for anything but those purposes.
Or can the commission spread the 16 mills
as a single levy? If the vote of the people is
"yes," expenses of bond debts, garbage and
rubbish pickup, library operation and all
the other services provided by the city can *
be drawn from one pot in proportions necessary to do each job right.
s T h l s latter metho'd is ,by far better business. .Citizens cannot expect their commissioners to run the city as an efficient business unless they give the commissioners
that ability. A "no" vote won't do it. A "yes"
vote will.

WEST BEND, WIS., NEWS:
"This is the season of year when

is well to warn the youngsters to

break loose and the cord falls

We would like to have you publish this letter of congratulations
to the senior class of Rodney B.
Wilson High School for their
great efforts in rebuilding their
class funds after the robbery of
their class funds.
This has given the adults a new
confidence in the s t u d e n t s of
today who will one day rule and
govern our nation. The organizing of the Amway fund raiser
proved to us what great things
they can manage and accomplish.
rThe people of the community
also are complimented on their
wonderful cooperation In helping
these teenagers' in their projects. We, too, were pleased to
' do our share In helping them by
presenting the fund raiser to

State police career

-It's Interesting how the meaning of certain w o r d s or certain concepts change over the
years. For example, it wasn't
too long ago when a "drive-in*
meant a place to stop for a root
beer or a sandwich. Yet today
the term "drive-in" might refer
to a movie, a dry cleaner, a bank",
a car wash, or even a church.
The original narrow and limited
definition of a *drtve-in" now
covers much more than Just a
snack bar that has curb-service.
"Sex education" is a n o t h e r
term that has changed meaning
over the last 20 y e a r s or so.
There was a time when this term
referred to a rather narrow concept of Instruction in the physiology and function of the male and
female sex organs, and in the
mechanics of human reproduc-
tion. But this old-fashioned concept of sex education has been
replaced today with a much
broader, much more human idea
of what sex Is all about.
THE MORE LIMITED concept
of sex eduation (which today we
would probably call "reproduction education*) has been re placed by a view of sex which
takes in practically the entire
human personality. After all, a
person's sex involves more than ss
just the part He or she plays In
the physical relations between
a man and a woman or-In the

From the

Record
By Joe Crump •
Uncle Sam, partner
of higher education
Senator Wayne Morse (Ore.)..
"The University of Portland in its
alumni edition of the Bulletin,
presented a report prepared by a
distinguished council of educators who collectively comprise
Editorial Projects for Education,
a non-profit organization associated with the American Alumni
Council . . . " (The condensed
report follows):
THERE IS ALMOST no federal
agency which does f not provide
furids for higher education.
The issue of federal control
notwithstanding, federal support
of higher education is taking its
place alongside military budgets
and farm subsidies as one of the
government's essential activities.
Each of the 50 or so agencies
dispensing federal funds to colleges and universities is responsible for Its own program, and no
single federal agency supervises
the entire enterprise.
Not only does the lack of a coordinated federal program make
it difficult to find a clear definition of the government's role
in higher education, but it also
creates a number of problems
both in Washington and on the
campuses.
The 'Bureau of the Budget, for
example has had to wrestle with
several uncoordinated, duplicative federal science budgets and
with different accounting systems.
The colleges and universities,
on the other hand, must negotiate the maze of federal bureaus
with consummate skill if they are
to get their share of the federal
largesse.
and opportunities in which their
institutions can profitably participate.
The latter group of people,
whom the press call "university
lobbyists,* has been growing In
number. At least a dozen institutions now have full-time representatives working in Washington. Many more have members of their administrative and
academic staffs shuttling to and
from the capital to negotiate
federal grants and contracts,
cultivate agency personnel and
try to influence legislation. Still
other Institutions have enlisted
the aid of qualified alumni or
trustees who happen to live in
Washington.
For those'institutions already
dependent upon federal dollars,
it is too late to turn back. Their
physical plant, their programs,
their personnel are all geared to
continuing federal aid.

A GRASSROOTS COMMENT'
The report discloses that, "Of
the 50 or more agencies dispensing federal funds, no single
agency supervises the entire enterprise." Why isn't this supervision coordinated under the secretary of health, EDUCATION,
and welfare?
The secretary of health, education, and welfare has a commissioner whose duties are listed as, special higher education,
