HARRISBURG - Energy
problems and taxes - par
ticularly real estate taxes,
will be among the major
issues that delegates con
sider at the 105th annual
convention of the Penn
sylvania State Grange in
Danville on October 24 to 27.
Other important issues
confronting the delegates
will be:
- continuing efforts at
government levels to
develop land use plans, as
well as the impact of such
plans on agriculture;
- environmental problems
including the possible ap
plication of sewage sludge to
land;
- the proposed use of
casein and caseinates m ice
cream, and problems arising
from imitation dairy
products;
- the need for renewed
emphasis on fundamental
education in pubhc schools,
and the importance of
adequate instruction in
English and mathematics.
More than 100 resolutions
dealing with these and other
vital subjects will be con
sidered by delegates at the
policy-making sessions of
the convention, according to
J. Luther Snyder, master of
the State Grange.
These resolutions
originate at the local or
subordinate Grange level,
Snyder pointed out Those
that are adopted by
subordinate or pomona

In addition, Snyder ex
plained, approved
resolutions related to federal
activites will be sent to the
National Grange for con
sideration at the
organization’s convention in
Greensboro, N.C., on Nov. 14
to 22.
More than a dozen
resolutions originating this
year at local Grange levels
deal with various forms of
taxation, Snyder said.
“While there has been
increasing demands to
replace real estate taxes
with more equiable levies,”
Snyder said, “the idea is not
new with the Grange.
“Fifty years ago, the State
Grange pomted out that ‘in
Pennsylvania real estate has
home the burden of heavy
taxes for years’ and will
contmue to do so until efforts
are made to change this.
“Until recently, few others
have suggested or proposed
substituting other taxes for
those on real estate. Now the
burden is heavier than ever
and others are speaking out.
Hopefully, something can be
accomphshed to correct the
situation.”
The convention will open
officially at 1:30 p.m
