COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS
(Vote for 2)
Term of office: 4 years
Questions:
1.. Do you think the county
should assume the responsi-
bility for the maintenance of
the contagious hospital ?
2. What is your opinion of
the need for a review of county
property assessments to pro-
vide more adequate support of
schools ?

Lion’s; Kingston Bus. Men's Asso.;
Church Trustee; Pres. State Asso.
Co. Commissioners; Ch. ‘Civil Def.
Com.; Nat'l Asso. Co. Officials.
Kingston Borough Council.
Answer: 1. Yes;
matter is approved by the Luzerne
County Medical Association, the
Dept. of Health and the Dept. of
Welfare of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
2. Property assessments in Lu-
zerne County are constantly under
review by a well trained staff,
practically all of whom hold dip-
lomas from the Dept. of Public In-
struction’s school on property
assessment. Their goal is that of
giving every property owner and
every political sub-division affected
provided this
the most equitable assessment
possible.

R. Failed to reply.

R. Incumbent. Ashley. Age:

Rescue House Com.; Co-ord. State
Disaster Com.; Red Cross; Dist. Ch.
Luz. Co. Rep. Com.; Mil. Man-
power Comm.; Un. Sportsmen Am.;
School Dir. Ashley Borough.
Answer: 1. I would have no ob-
jection to having County assume
the responsibility, providing this
plan is recommended by the Lu-
zerne Co. Medical Society, the of-
ficials of Kirby Memorial Health
Center and the various hospitals
of the County.
2. County property assessments
are continually under review for
the purpose of making them equit-
able. Valuations which serve as
a basis for the appropriations from
the Commonwealth for the sup-
port of the schools are not based
upon the county valuations but on
“Market Value” established by the
State Tax Equalization Board.
Milo B. Serfas
R. Hazleton. Age: 62. Sales-
man. Fairview and Mercersburg
Academies. Pres. Mercersburg Ac.
Y.M.C.A.,1912.
Answer: 1. Yes, the county
should assume the responsibility
providing the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania neglects doing so.
2. I believe it is the duty of
the County Commissioners to con-
stantly review the!county property
assessments with a view of attain-
ing a fair and just tax yield in-
cluding adequate support of schools,

Att. Penn State Bus. Adm.; pres-
ently U. of Scranton, night school.
Rotary; Bd. Dirs. Community Chest;
Red Cross. Councilman,
Nat'l Del. Dem. Convention.
Answer: 1. Yes.
2. There should be a review of
‘county assessments but it is the
State and Federal obligations to
help out the school district.
Stephen A.- Farris
D. Swoyerville. Age: 54. Elec-
tro-Plating. H. S. Business Course.
Amer. Leg.; Ch. Community Wel-
fare, Swoy. Borough, 2 years; Red
Cross. School Dir., 4 years; Tax
Collector, 18 years, Swoyerville
Borough.
Answer: 1. Yes. An effort
should be made to attract the at-
tention of the state and national
government for assistance to main-
tain the hospital, thereby lighten-
ing the burden for the county.
2. According to present laws,
property assessments cannot be
raised or lowered for school pur-
poses only. The assessments must
be the same for County, Institution
District, Borough and School sys-
tems; therefore this question can-
not be answered.

Prop. Owners’ Asso.; Comm, Little
League Baseball; Pres. Pittst'n Chap.
P.ILA.A. Basketball (Off., V. P. Foot-
ball Chapter.
Answer: 1. Yes, because I under-
stand that if some unfortunate is
stricken he is not admitted until
a specified fee is paid first.
2. This is a problem for the
State Educational Department.
Felix Kwiatek
D. Warrior Run Borough. Age:
54. Merchant. Pub. Schools. Mem.
School Bd., 24 years. Church af-
fairs; charity drives.
Answer: 1. Yes; all the munici-
palities from time to time must
avail themselves of the facilities of
this institution. The scope of its
service would be greatly enlarged
and considerable improved under
county auspices.
2. Most school districts are fi-
nancially distressed, largely be-
cause of outmoded and inefficient
system of assessments, resulting in
inadequate valuations as a basis for
taX revenue.

Ch., Red Cross, Edws.; Civ. Doctor
W-B Recruiting Ser.; Sch. Dir;
State Rep. 5th Dist.; Deputy Cor-
oner, Luz. Co.; Reg. Vital Statistics,
Edws.
Answer: 1. Yes, the County will
facilitate a speed-up in admissions
as well as improved treatment pro-
cedures, under a broader program
and at a high level of health regu-
lations. A large, progressive, for-
ward, County-maintained contagious
hospital will spear-head more ef-
fective campaigns and public con-
sciousness of dangers of contagion.
2. “To cure the ill, eradicate
the source of the ailment.” In-
equitable assessment requires re-
view by County Assessors subject
to popular demand by the Elector-
ate, property owners and taxpayers
for adequate school support. I
would advocate bringing diversified
new industries into the valley for
new funds and solve the problem.

Answer: 1. ‘Yes, but only after
an exhaustive study and public
hearings have been held to en-
lighten the people concerning the
advantages of a larger school ad-
ministration district.” 2. “Any
improvements can only be financed
by more economical administration,

higher taxpayer, and by taking
every advantage of state appropri-

Harry B. Schooley, Ir.
R. D. 1, Dallas. Lawyer. Yale
University, University of Pennsyl-
vania Law School.
Answer: 1 “Under present State
laws, larger school administrative
districts and attendance areas have
proved more economical and func-
tionally practical. Further expan-
sion of Dallas-Franklin townships
is ‘not desirable until we under-
stand and decide that by such ex-
pansion the district would become
financially more efficient and better
able to solve its present problem
of transportation, classroom ac-
commodations, etc.” 2. “Financing
of our school program must be
done through local school tax re-
ceipts and State appropriation.
With this in mind, we cannot afford
to take an attitude toward new
taxpayers that will drive them out
of our township. We should re-
member that ‘more families and
new industries mean better educa-
tion for all of our children.”

vide better educational facilities in
Lehman Schools. Large adminis-
trative district and attendance area
does not of necessity mean im-
proved school system. Quality of
education in any district related
to quality of equipment of school
and not size, ability of faculty and
administrative personnel, and Board
of Education. The financing of a
school district is a complicated and
involved procedure. Each district
must, consider the facts pertinent
to its own situation in solving its
