Parties To Natona Tax Dispute
Will Concur On A’
All parties involved in the dis-
puted real estate transfer tax from
sale of Natona Mills, including Dal-
las Borough and Township, will
probably agree to a “case stated”
to be presented to the Court of
Common Pleas.
“Case stated” is an agreement
on facts between plaintiff, the Bor-
ough; defendant, Native Laces and
Textiles, Inc.; and Dallas Township,
now holding the tax paid to it in-
stead of the Borough, and likely
third-party defendant.
Theodore L. Krohn, local attorney
for the mill, told Dallas Township
Supervisors that he was interested
in! drawing up this statement of
agreed-upon facts, which speeds up
court decisions, since there is no
long trial to determine whose claim
is true and whose is false.
The judge simply rules on the
facts as a matter of law.
‘Case Stated”
Borough's legal case is that Na-
tona has the legal responsibility to
pay the tax to the Borough, even
though it is held by the Township.
At the time of sale several years
ago, tax was paid at the courthouse
to the Township, since the old deed
had Natona Mills listed as in that
jurisdiction. A Superior Court rul-
ing in 1952, however, approved an-
nexation of the plant to the
Borough. This was apparently not
noted on the deed.
Borough will petition that Native
Laces pay their tax, and Native
Laces, through Krohn, will say that
it is the Township's responsibility to
pay back the money.
Borough solicitor Bob Fleming
said that he too would like to form-
ulate a case stated, and would con-
sult with Krohn and Township
solicitor Frank Townend to that
end.

Fall Fair, sponsored by Dallas Ro-
* * *
Dallas Rotarians, in an effort to
raise additional funds for Back
Mountain civic activities, have plan-
ned a new social, sports and fun
event for the area in the form of
a Fall Fair.
Myron S. Baker, president of the
Dallas Rotary, said the event will
be held Saturday, October 5, at
the Lehman Horse Show grounds
on Route 118, between Dallas and
Lehman. Tt will be an afternoon
and evening affair, packed with
activity. 'A rain date of October
12 has been selected.
Baker has appointed “Red” Am-
brose Fair Chairman; Walter Mohr,
program chairman; Jim Besecker,
promotion chairman. “Doc” L. E.
Jordan will act as co-ordinator.
Theme of the Fall Fair will be
Where Champions Meet.” --Cham-
pions from many categories will be
exhibited, including horses, cattle,
dogs . and by no means last
. a baby parade;
Rotarians state that in the mat-
ter of judging the baby show, judges
will come from distant points and
will leave the area immediately up-
on presenting their choice as win-
ner in order to avoid possible vio-
lence on the fair grounds.
Chairman Ambrose said that in-
teresting exhibits of pleasure cars,
sport cars, farm machinery, antique
cars, prize winning flowers, etc.,
are in the planning. Bands and
marching groups, beauty queens and
sports events are also on the agenda
and Rotarians are hard at work to
make this first Fall Fair a truly big
event. Other exciting entertain-
ment plans are being discussed, and
will be announced by program
chairman Walt Mohr in the near
future.
Dinner will be served on the Fair
grounds, using as a kitchen the
new permanent refreshment stand
built by the Lehman Firemen: this
year; complete menu will be an-
nounced soon.
Proceeds will be used to finance

Police Arrest One
A flaming runaway pickup truck,
with three occupants who escaped
injury in a fiery ride down Roushey

a resident and a policeman,
Charged with assault and battery
by Justice of the Peace George
Prater was Afton Reese, Roushey
Plot, released on $500 bail put up
by Harry Martin, Sr.
Charges were brought by Les
Tinsley, Dallas Township policeman,
who was on the scene directing
traffic as Dr. Henry M. Laing Fire
‘Company responded to the fire call,
and Stanley Gardiner, - assistant
chief of police, was a witness."
"A number of witnesses from
Roushey plot filled Mr. Prater’s
office to testify for Mr. Reese, but
the commotion was such that the
magistrate ‘‘couldn’t make head nor
"tail of the claims,” and referred the
business to court.
According to Tinsley, the arrest-
ing officer, Reese was being abusive
verbally, after having words with
Gardiner, and when he, Tinsley,
tried to get in the car with Gardi-
ner, to leave the scene, Reese burst
into the vehicle and grabbed him.
Tinsley then hit Reese in "the
mouth.
Mr. Prater said Reese did not ex-

actly deny coming after Tinsley,
who was wearing hat and badge
and thus in uniform, ‘but’ that it
was hard, because of the number
of witnesses, to ascertain the. facts.
When the two parties got into a
tussle, Gardiner got out of his side
of the car, night-stick drawn, and
was promptly swamped by a num-
ber of people, according to the
police.
Cause of- all this was a truck
loaded with two new steam cleaners
owned by Citation Sales and Serv-
ice. Truck was owned and driven
by Charles Goble, Roushey Plot, who
had as passengers Ricky and David
Burkhardt, ‘all - en

The motor caught on fire, and
Goble, seeing this, swerved off
Roushey Street, several hundred
yards above Demunds Road, careen-
ed down through a field and stopped
in a, ditch.
Reese was helping Goble unload
the cleaners, which contained some
kerosene, and. might have been
dangerous. On later comment, re-
portedly, of the fire chief to the
effect that Reese should have kept
back, the accused said something
in reply which prompted Gardiner,
standing by, to make some state-
ment to which Reese took offense.

New Building
Site Problem
Decision on a site for the new
Kingston Township Building made
possible * by a Federal Accelerated
Works grant will pose another pro-
blem for its board of supervisors.
An option has been held for some
time om the Holcomb property on
Pioneer Avenue. Recently repre-
sentatives of Trucksville Fire Com-
pany solicited : supervisors to have
the new building erected on present
fire company land.
Specifications by the Federal
Government call for strict adher-
ence to provisions set forth in the
grant. An amount of $23,374 will be
‘matched by $19,626 from township
fumds. Sale of present property to
the State Highway Department furn-
| ished money for the township's part
in the project.
Necessary papers were signed at
‘a meeting of the board last Wednes-
day evening. Proof of finamces must
be submitted in sixty days with con-
struction to follow within 120 days.
New building would have to be
built first and then another ad-
dition added for fire company quar-
ters later, funds for same probably
being raised by solicitation.
There has been some objection
from Shavertown residemts to locat-
ing the building so far away from
the jointure line of Dallas in event
a wider merger of municipalities
were to take place in the future.
A decision will have to be made
soon. before gramt is withdrawn on
expiration date.
