Laing Fire Company, Dallas, and Dallas Community Ambul- ance Association expressed great satisfaction Sunday night as their annual fund-raising campaign went ‘‘over the top.” Funds will be divided between the two organizations. The combined goal was $10,000 the highest sum ever sought by the community service groups. “We went over our goal and we are very pleased with the public’s response,’ declared Wes Cave, chairman of the campaign for the ambulance unit. A new system to solicit funds was inaugurated this year. Let- ters were mailed to residents askingygor their support, with the first letters going out on June 1. At the end of a 5-month period, the response from the citizenry was better than in any previous years. A coin card system was used prior to this year. “We will continue to use the new mailing system rather than the coin card drive,” officials stated. Monies received will be used to pay for equipment, insurance maintenance and upkeep. A good portion will go into a ‘‘new building fund,” as the section of the municipal building alloted for housing of three fire engines and one ambulance is rapidly becoming inadequate. One engine has to be parked imme- diaately behind another, and cannot exit from the building Dallas Boro. loses half of real tax Dallas Borough Council was notified at its October 20 meet- ing of Dallas School District’s intefition to take half of the one per cent real estate transfer tax imposed by the borough. Finance Chairman Robert Parry stated this would equal a one and one-half mill loss to the borough. Mr. Parry asked coun- cil megkbers to start consid- ering tae budget for next year, with this loss in mind. He also asked for a breakdown of plann- ed vollbsts, He said he felt council should not present any new projects after considering present debt obligations. Upon recommendation of Wil- lard Newberry, sanitation com- mittee chairman, council ap- proved a new schedule of fees for installing and repairing sewage systems in the borough. They agreed to charge $25 for new commercial installation; $15, new residential; $10 for re- pair, commercial or residential. Fees will be paid to Richard Disque, building inspector, with Mr. Disque receiving 50 per cent of fees and the borough 50 per cent. Building permits were grant- ed for construction of six units in the Troup Fund condominium comple: at Newberry Estate, Pioneer* Avenue. In his report concerning _ police activities, Mayor Steve Hartman noted that extra policemen are being assigned during the Halloween period, and thgyt the curfew will be “strictly enforced.” He warned that damage to property will not be tolerated. Recreation chairman George vandals damage phone cables On three occasions during the past several weeks, vandals caused damage to toll cables of Commonwealth Telephone Company, but company repair- men traced the trouble each time and made repairs. Disrup- tion of service was for short periods of time only. Dallas District Plant Manag uy David Bennett repor- ted show were fired into cables in the area between Luzerne and Trucksville. These cables contain toll circuits between Dallas and Wilkes-Barre and carry gerstate messages. State Police are continuing their investigation.
