White Family
Flooded With
Food, Clothes
Well clothed, with plemty of
food on hand and offers off more
articles of fu rn i tu r e th a n they
could store in the small frame
house in which they live, mem­bers
of the White family consti­tu
ted a very happy g roup this

From the doorway of th e two-room

they live deep in the woods, nor th
of Spring Lake, Mrs. David
White could scarcely re s tra in
her te a r s in expressing her
th a n k s to the people of Lititz
for the help proferred them.
“At a moment when life seem­ed
a bit bleak, when food and
clothing both were becoming
very, scarce, we suddenly are
given everything we n e ed , ” she
declared. “ I certainly th a n k the
people of Lititz — and mostly,
because now my husband again
is working and we can see be tte r
days a h e ad .”
In addtiion to food, clothing
and furniture , many h e re have
sent in cash and cheeks which
will be placed in a fund tio help
th e Whites meet fu r th e r needs,
Raymond Pe ttyjohn, past pres i­dent
of the Lions Club, who is in
charge of the group helping the
family, reported.
"We still want to find th em a
b e tte r home in which to live,”
Pettypohn asserted. “ So f a r we
have been unsuccessful b u t we
do not intend to give up until
we see this family of seven small
children living in a ma n n e r in
which American children should
be re a r ed .”
All donations should b e sent
directly to Mr. Pettyjohn.

Council Stays In Session
Until 1:30 A.M. Re­viewing
Figures
Remaining in session until
1:30 Wednesday morning, mem­bers
of borough council approved
a budget of $250,000, approxi­mately
$65,000 la rge r th an last
y e a r ’s total, and okeyed a four-mill
boost in borough proper ty
tax and a one dollar increase in
the per capita tax.
Increased operating costs, a
la rge r police force, funds needed
for s tre e t repa ir and a compara­tively
small balance in the bank
were given as reasons for the
14-mill ra te fixed, despite th a t
the budget does not include pro­visions
for any ma jo r improve­ments.
During the six h our session ev­ery
conceivable method of ob­taining
the necessary revenue
was discussed, a f te r Pres ident of
Council Menno B. Ro h re r read
a communication from the bor­ough
solicitor, s trongly advising
aga ins t the occupation tax, on
which the original budget had
been based, and which would
have made th e four mills in­crease
unnecessary.
The solicitor pointed o u t th a t
in all probability the court would
disallow such a tax because the re
would undoubtedly be some per­sons
paying a per capita tax who
would not be eligible for the oc­cupational
levy.
