LII, NO. 36 S| Civil Defense Unit Cells For Active Volunteers To Take Important Part In Plans Civil Defense Is As Important As Training A Soldier, Says Military Authority A civil defense meeting will be held in the Greist Building, Lancaster, Monday evening at 7:30. Men and women, who are interested in becoming a mem- ber of the civil defense auxil- jary police are urgently asked to attend. All persons interest- ed are asked to contact Chief of Police Parke Neiss, Mt. Joy The need for a proper civil defense program was recently brought out by military auth- orities when it was emphatical- ly stated that, should the U. S be attacked, the soldier the front line would be safer than the civilian, as the soldier is trained to meet emergencies while the civilian is complac- ently sitting at home and doing nothing about it. “It just could not happen to me says friend civilian”, when in reality friend civilian would be safer in the front lines. Guided missles bombs have made the United States vulnerable for attack and the only means to save from heavy casualities in case of a war is for public spirited men and women to take an ac- tive part in civil defense. It can happen here as it did in Eng- land during World War II. Present members of the Mt. Joy Auxiliary police and also anyone wishing to become a part of this group, are invited to an organization meeting to held Tuesday evening, Feb- ruary 10, at the Civil Defense headquarters, Seiler Printing Company office.

Spangler also brought that the borough formerly had revenue from the water ac- counts and this money today is not going to the borough but to the Water Authority. George Brown, 3rd, tax col- [1ector, suggested to council that the head tax should fall due on April 1 so as to co-incide with county taxes. However, Fire Chief Ray Myers brought out to the councilmen that it was his opinion it would be a hardship on the taxpayer as water rents fall due at that time. Exonerations Council passed a resolution to exonerate the tax collector for the amount of $65.00 for 1952 per capita tax. These ex- onerations were hardship cases, armed forces and persons who had moved from the borough. Councilman Spangler stated that even though the exonera- tions were small, it was a loss to the borough and in his op- inion it is necessary to be able to add new residents to the tax collectors files in order to move ahead.
