WHEREAS the Board of Supervisors of Tompkins County,

certain highly important factors seldom found in a small county
which combine to make our airport important ftom a standpoint
of national security, and

tioned above and listed below
1 Cornell University is located in the City of Ithaca and
its lands abut the site of the airport At present, the
Board of Supeivisois understands that Cornell Univer-
sity is handling research projects for the Department of
Defense which total millions of dollars and a great deal
of the work is in the field of aeronautics and it is the
feeling of the Board that this airport properly equipped
could be used in furthering such research
2 Cornell University has three fine ROTC organizations
on its campus, Army, Airforce and Navy and both the
Army and Navy have air arms in their respective
branches of the national defense department Investiga-
May 27, 1957 107
tions made by the members of the board indicates that
more and better training could be given to the college
students enrolled in the ROTC piogram if a properly
equipped airport was available for use

serve Training Center in Ithaca, New York, which serves
several counties in the south central New York area
The United States Army is presently preparing plans
for an Armory to be used by Reserve and National
Guard Units in this area and this Armory is to be lo-
cated in the City of Ithaca
4 It is the understanding of the Board of Supervisors
that the United States Airforce is interested in the Air
National Guard being developed into an efficient arm of
the defense organization An adequate airport at Ithaca
would serve the same area for the Air National Guard
that the training centers do for the Army and Navy
5 The General Electric Company is engaged in a long
range research program with Cornell University and has
built several buildings on the land adjoining the airport.
A proper airport designed for all types of planes would
offei an important adjunct to the testing and developing
of items being pursued in these research programs
6 The County of Tompkins and City of Ithaca are well
served by public transportation facilities The Lehigh
Valley Railroad runs through Ithaca and connects New
York City with Buffalo Mohawk Airlines operates sev-
eral flights daily between Ithaca and New York City,
Buffalo, Boston and Detroit and through other lines
connects with all points in the United States In addi-
tion the Greyhound Bus Lines make Ithaca a principal
stop and serve the eastern part of the United States
directly
WHEREAS Tompkins County is a small county in popula-
tion and although it is a well-known center of education having
both Cornell University and Ithaca College within its borders,
it is not a wealthy area from the standpoint of a tax income
by reason of the fact that all buildings used for educational
purposes are tax exempt under the New York State Law and
WHEREAS the Board of Supervisors realizes it does not
have financial resources available to develop an airport which
will take advantage of all the factors outlined above, it feels
that it would be remiss in its duty if it did not call the attention
of the Commanding General of the United States Airforce to the
peculiarly favorable situation existing here to make this airport
a real and contributing service to the National Defense, it is
hereby
RESOLVED, upon recommendation of the Airport Commit-
tee, That the Board of Supervisors cordially invites the Com-
manding General of the United States Airforce, or his repre-
sentatives, to come to Ithaca and thoroughly investigate the
Possibilities existing at the Tompkins County Airport, and be
it
108 May 27, 1957
RESOLVED, further, that the Board of Supervisors will
make all technical services available to said Commanding Gen-
eral, or his representatives, and will arrange with the Com-
manding Officers of the ROTC Unit located at Cornell Uni-
versity to comment on the value of the training facilities avail-
able on a properly equipped airport, and, for the convenience of
the Commanding General, we are appending the names and
addresses of these officers, and be it
RESOLVED, further, that the Clerk of the Board of Sup-
ervisors be and she hereby is authorized and directed to forward
a certified copy of this resolution to Honorable Irving M Ives,

Mr Gridley presented the following typed statement
"The following is a resume of the dollars and cents picture
of Tompkins County as of this date
"In 1956 we spent the $60,000 contingent fund plus $127,000
out of reserve plus a pressured $324,387 (ref res #119-56)
for a grand total unbudgeted expenditure of $511,387
"In five months of 1957 we have spent $27,000 from reserve,
plus $21,695 of a $70,000 contingent fund And be reminded
at this point that we are about to be embarking on a major
hospital project
"In July we will be called upon to produce $103,500 (ref.
res. #120-56) an un -budgeted item
These are a few of the major happenings Now, let's look
at a few of the items that did not make their 56 budget grade •
Civil Defense $1705 , Fire Coordinator $2540 , Telephones
$800, Penitentiary $584, Burial of Vets $2153, County Gen-
eral $1775, Taxes on Co property $1000, Welfare $48,000;
Co Library, Jail and others
This all projects to look something like this, if history re-
peats itself and these departments again run short, by the end
of this year we will have easily spent the $70,000 contingent
fund, plus an estimated $181,428 from surplus, for an approxi-
mate "in -the -red" operating loss of between $90,000-$100,-
000
The foregoing does not give any consideration to P P R ,
which will apparently be one of the next pressurized topics;
118 June 10, 1957
nor does it give any consideration to any of the other "nice
things" that the county does not now have, but should immedi-
ately step out and purchase
At this point I am appeahng to our "sound business judg-
ment" before embarking on an approximate $35,000 expendi-
ture. For without this last item the "crying towels" will be
somewhat damp come budget time this fall
My summation is this, if we, at any time, are of the opinion
that we have any surplus money to "throw around" let us not
over -look the prime reason for which county government was
created in the first place, that of maintaining road.s and
bridges for the residents of the area.

user's bill would amount to more than $55 million throughout
the State, and
WHEREAS new legislation is needed to amend a long
existing law that has been given a new interpretation by the
courts, and
WHEREAS the needed legislation would continue the
present method of determining telephone rates, which has been
in use by the Public Service Commission for many years and
which allows telephone companies a fair return on capital act-
ually expended, and
WHEREAS the needed legislation would prevent a new
method of rate determination giving telephone companies a
special privilege as compared with other utilities, which new
method would require rates to be based on the present inflated
value of property acquired years ago at lower costs and thereby
would give telephone companies an unearned increase, and
WHEREAS the needed legislation has twice been over-
whelmingly passed in the Assembly with support from As-
semblymen of both parties including Mr Ashbery and twice has
been prevented from coming to a vote in the Senate by a hand-
ful of members of the Finance Committee, and

A resolution regarding the constitutional convention was

Resolution No 210 Opposing Constitutional Convention
Mr Bower offered the following resolution and moved its
adoption:
WHEREAS the people of the State of New York will vote at
the general election, November 5, 1957, on the question of
whether a Constitutional Convention shall be held in 1959 for
the purpose of amending and revising the State Constitution and
WHEREAS the people have approved 51 amendments to said
Constitution since the last such convention in 1938 to keep
the basic law of this State abreast of modern requirements and
WHEREAS the procedure by which these amendments were
refereed to the people, namely by requiring approval of such
proposed amendments by two Legislatures before their sub-
mission to a popular referendum, is eminently satisfactory
because
(a) it insures the careful and deliberate consideration
which is imperative for proposals of such great im-
portance to the people, and
(b) it allows the people ample time, between the final
Legislative approval of a proposed amendment and
the general election, to acquaint themselves with
such Proposal and the arguments for and against
its adoption, and,
WHEREAS a Constitutional Convention would be required,
within a relatively short period, to consider hundreds of pro-
posals dealing with all areas of the Constitution, thereby pre-
cluding the deliberate and constructive analysis which any pro-
posed change of the Constitution should undergo, and whereas
the people would have inadequate time, between adjournment
of such a convention in early Fall and Election Day, to become
informed upon numerous complicated and technical amendments
which probably would result from such convention, and finally
208 October 24, 1957
WHEREAS the best estimates of the cost of such a Consti-
tutional Convention range between $4 million and $5 million,
for a purpose which nothing in the realm of public interest
appears to justify,
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that, in the opinion of
the Board of Supervisors of Tompkins County, the interests
of the people of the State of New York would not be served by a
Constitutional Convention in 1959 and that those interests can
bee* be safeguarded at this time by an overwhelming "no" vote
on the question as to the holding of such convention
Seconded by Mr Gridley

Suggestion by the committee is that legislation be adopted
increasing the Surrogate's Court fees during the year and in
view of this fact we recommend that revenue account No
1263 be increased from $600 to $1,000
We further suggest that revenue account No 1471 recom-
mended by the budget officer at $2575 be reduced to $500 as

ment
As a result of the above tax levy is $1,500,887 80, instead of

TAX LEVIES FOR THE YEAR 1958
To the Board of Supervisors of Tompkins County, N. Y
Your Committee on Equalization reports that they have ex-
amined the assessment rolls of the several tax districts in the
County of Tompkins, for the purpose of ascertaining whether
the valuation in one tax district bears a j ust relation to the
valuations in all the tax districts in the county, that in the
opinion of the members of the committee such valuations do
not bear such dust relations to the valuations in all the tax
districts of the county, and your committee would recommend
that the valuations of the several tax districts, in order that
they may bear such just relations, be increased or dimin-
ished according to the following statements so as to make the
aggregate equalized valuations as indicated in the tabular

Buffalo, February 12th and 13th, held in conjunction with
the Town Officers Association I find that these meetings
are very helpful to me as historian for they give an opportun-
ity to learn at first hand the nature and extent of activities
of other historians throughout the state, and to discuss com-
mon problems
I was honored as official county historian, to be the prin-
cipal speaker at the annual meeting of the Tompkins County
Medical Society, held in the Hotel Statler, March 18th
Two other talks were given during the year to represen-
tative county groups
Your historian in recent years has devoted considerable
time to the creation of a large number of historical paintings
depicting early scenes and events of local interest
These were on exhibit during March in the Historical
Museum, and on the 26th I gave a talk describing the history
each painting represented The meeting was well attended
On May 22nd the Historical Society held their 2nd annual
picnic at the Eight Square School House in Dryden This
building is now owned by the Society and your historian has
spent many hours there with others improving the grounds
and interior The Society allows recognized groups, upon re-
quest, to use the building for meetings
Also during the year, I have had an extensive correspon-
dence in historical inquiries and from Tompkins County de-
scendants from afar, seeking genealogical information

506 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
REPORT OF CURATOR
To the Board of Supervisors •
As a fair statement of the activities of the DeWitt Histor-
ical Museum for the year 1957, this report is respectfully
submitted.
Since its large and growing collection of artifacts and
printed history is almost exclusively of local use or origin,
the DeWitt Historical Museum is able to serve increasingly
well an area that otherwise would not be served The particu-
lar area where the Museum creates its most effective impact
is that of the schools, the pupils and their parents Since 1940
the New York State elementary syllabus has required the
teaching of local history to enable Tompkins County schools
to fulfill this requirement the Museum has developed pro,
grams that embrace lecture tours of the collection, publica-
tions, newspaper features, visual aids, and specialized ex-
hibits
Surveying the statewide scarcity of published material
available to teachers, experts in the field of elementary edu-
cation have placed the responsibility for collection, interpre-
tation and dissemination upon local historical societies The
DeWitt Historical Society has accepted this responsibility in
so far as it applies to Tompkins County, and through pro-
grams that are imaginative and effective, it is contributing
substantially to the history of the American Way of life
To make the work of the schools in the field of local history
still more effective by carrying it into the homes of the pupils,
current programs embrace their parents The programs are
designed not only to arouse a casual interest on the part of
these parents but to enable them to familiarize themselves
with the work of the schools This is accomplished through
publications, lecture , tours, exhibits and meetings especially
tailored for young adults which enable them to intensify the
interest of their children in local history It is creditable that
so many such parents respond to the urgings of their children
to visit the Museum
Participating in these programs are Parent Teacher Associ-
ations, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, civic and social clubs, and
study groups throughout the County To provide these groups
Tompkins County, New York 507
with unfettered use of the Museum's facilities, their meet-
ings are arranged for other than the two public days—Tues-
days and Thursdays—and for evening sessions The Museum
was open 130 days during the year
A yardstick for determining the success of these programs
is a combination of attendance, borrowings from the colIec-
tion and contributions to it, and sales of publications of the
Society For the calendar year Jan 1 to Dec 31, 1957, reg-
istered attendance was 3,144, of which 2,937 was of Tompkins
County residents , loans of materials totaled 119, and contribu-
tions of materials 84 A total of 841 pieces of mail was handled
This number includes only such items as call for some degree
of service, circulars are not embraced in this count This is a
gain in all categories over the previous year, which indicates
a healthful development
Registered attendance reflects only those persons who visit
the Museum for service It does not include casuals or
attendance at lectures Likewise, loans were made only for
such use as tend to disseminate county historical informa-
tion
An intensified public interest is further indicated by the
nature of material in the donations to the Museum this year
A few illustrations of the character of contributions are cited
below :
J B Campbell of Syracuse presented a model of the "Enter-
prise," the first steamboat on Cayuga Lake, built in 1820, a
rocking horse used in the Charles A Ives family Handmade,
this specimen is an excellent example of creative imagination
of the early residents to supply their needs
Prof Allister M Macmillan and Mrs Macmillan con-
tributed a specimen of an Ithaca Calendar Clock, the only one
known to be in existence that was wholly fabricated in Ithaca
Professor Macmillan presented a paper that gives a de-
tailed history of early American clockmaking, an account of
Henry Bishop Horton and his family, and the autophone
Another outstanding and especially useful contribution
this year was made by two natives of Ithaca—the Lane
sisters, Mrs H C Heidt and Miss Marjorie Lane of the Perry
City Road This contribution is a portfolio of 67 watercolor
508 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
drawings of Iroquoian inventions, utensils and manufacture
originally gathered by Lewis H Morgan in 1850 and figured
in a New York State Regents report of 1852 A copy of this
report is in the Museum's library but it is too fragile to cir-
culate To enable this collection to be used in schools, the
illustrations were enlarged to 11x14 inches, drawn on heavy
artcards which were enclosed in plastic envelopes and then
inserted in a substantial looseleaf binder Professional artists
estimate the monetary value of the portfolio at from $1,500
to $2,000 In return for use of the drawings in her school-
work in Westchester County, Mrs B T Andrews contributed
two sets of slides of the Iroquoian material and a third set
from her collection of Algonquin pictures
Miss Lillian Leland, librarian, is progressing in her work
of reorganizing the extensive book collection, which includes
not only bound volumes but pamphlets, scrapbooks, diaries,
account books, manuscripts and newspapers To make room
for additional contributions, the library has been moved to
the former gallery of the Old Courthouse
Mrs William A Smith's project of improving the efficiency
of the genealogical department as well as adding extensive
new material has continued throughout the year An invalu-
able product of Mrs Smith's research has been the definite
determination of additional Revolutionary War soldiers who
became either permanent or transient residents of the county
To date number stands at 260
Emmons Leland has inspected and repaired the map col-
lection, and is continuing his work by cataloging the Museum's
maps Some that were found drawn on paper have been
transferred to cloth The Burr maps of 1829 and 1839 have
been substantially rebound, and numerous small maps have
been arranged in a protective folder
Development of an analytical index of the collection is in
charge of Mrs Wayne Bliss, office secretary, but time de-
voted to this task is limited since correspondence has increased
and the staff performs all work on The Bulletin.
As experience suggests, changes in arrangement of the
Museum continue to make the setting as functional as space
limitations permit Such changes increase the efficiency as
Tompkins County, New York 509
well as add touches of newness to the appearance of perman-
ent displays
Sales of Society's publications this year totaled $160 85
A part of this circulation has been statewide, particularly
"Carrie Marnning's Diary" and "Railroads df Tompkins
County " One pamphlet was published this year
A plan for producing these publications under the classi-
fication of "inexpensive printing," a description originated by
Dr Corey, State Historian, is attracting statewide attention
Your Curator participated in the Seminar at Cooperstown
and at the 'Town Historian's Workshop at Hamilton College
this summer to further introduce the plan
Research by the Museum's staff is limited by time avail-
able for it Nevertheless, several articles have appeared in
The Ithaca Journal and a number of completed manuscripts
have been added to the collection Feature articles in The
Journal are designed to induce others to develop an interest
in local history research A degree of success has been
attained not only in family history but in that of buildings,
events, enterprises as well as other aspects of the county's
development It is to be noted that this new interest is on a
countywide basis
Co-operation with the county historian and with town
historians has not lessened, but in the field of the latter group
there has not been sufficient time available to initiate activity
by means of personal contact However, the several programs
do have an awakening effect on residents of the several towns
that may lead to increased activity at a not too remote date
In justice to the work they are doing, Mrs Susan Haring and
Mrs Betsey Clark, historians of Lansing and Dryden, respec-
tively, have been actively co-operating with the DeWitt
Society
The Society's Bulletin is being produced by the staff at a
considerable saving which has made it possible to circulate it
among the schools of both the county and city Short historical
articles are now featured to arouse interest in the background
of the development of the County and to encourage those,
whose interest are thus awakened to further pursue that in-
510 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
terest Effectiveness of this project is indicated by the res-
ponse from readers
Two outstanding improvements to the Museum were made
this year by your Board Heating problems have been reduced
to a minimum and installation of three fluorescent lights
has made the main room both attractive and convenient The
fixture in the offices has eliminated eye strain and fatigue
at a time when the work load is steadily increasing The staff
appreciates this commendable act by your Board

To the Board of Supervisors •
Submitted herewith is the First Annual Report of the
Tompkins County Probation Department Following the re-
tirement of Mr Hutchinson, the Probation Department was
without the services of an Officer until March 1957 when re-
sponsibility for the administration was assumed by two cap-
able Probation Examiners from the State Department of Pro-
bation On July 1, 1957 your Director was appointed and
shortly thereafter two additional Probation Officers were ap-
pointed to complete the staff Because of the re -organization
some of the statistical material presented is not as complete
as will be possible in the future At the same time, it is hoped
that it does present a comprehensive picture of Probation,
,servicing the several courts in Tompkins County
A successful Probation Department is developed through
the interest and support of the Board of Supervisors of the
county In this respect we are deeply appreciative of both the
interest and support shown by the Board during the past year
The Probation Department is closely related to the courts
in the county and through them extends service in many areas
Besides the many problems facing adults, understanding and
Tompkins County, New York 519
strengthening family relations, special emphasis is placed on
encouraging and helping children develop into happy, re-
sponsible' citizens The Probation Department draws upon o
the resources in the community to achieve these aims Without
the cooperation of the public and private agencies, civic and
service groups, and religious institutions, much of its effec-
tiveness would be lost
Since this is your Probation Department, we welcome your.
suggestions and comments
Respectfully submitted,
Willis B White, Jr
Director of Probation
The Probation Department is encouraged by some of the
progress and development made during the last six months
At the same time, it is acutely aware of the many challenges
that still remain
The organization of the Department with an entirely new
staff has posed some initial problems that have had to be
met along with maintaining Probation services While per-
sonnel are well qualified and have had extensive experience in
other or related fields, Probation has been a new experience
Considerable time has had to be spent in orientation to the
work as well as learning the numerous community resources
With an increased staff we have initiated a program of
extended Probation service in many areas and will continue
to attempt to make such services increasingly more effective
throughout the coming year Along with more adequate super-
vision of probationers it is now possible to extend pre -sentence
investigation service to all courts of Tompkins County We
are already experiencing an increasing use of our intake
service Such a service can be an important tool in prevention
by proper screening and referral We are taking advantage
of a program offered by the Mental Hygiene Clinic that will
provide consultation and guidance as an aid in working more
effectively with difficult probationers
The Probation Officers have attended bi-monthly confer-
ences held in Elmira for Probation Departments of the South-
ern Tier Such conferences are extremely helpful in not only
520 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
evaluating our own services but likewise in the development
of new ones It is hoped that in the coming year the Probation
Officers will be able to take advantage of a training course
conducted by the State Division of Probation

first held here in the memory of many of the justices and
was participated in very actively by our association and also
the Magistrates' Association of Cortland County, realizing
the benefits thereof, came over from Cortland to attend the
sessions and participated actively in the successful operation
of the school There were ten sessions of this school held week-
ly for three hours a night and instruction was given by this
office, by Michael LoPinto, attorney, John Gardner, former
District Attorney of Cortland County, and Leland Taylor,
former City Judge of the City of Cortland A mock trial was
held in connection therewith and the course was terminated
by a dinner at which the Justices received certificates from

REPORT OF THE TOMPKINS COUNTY LABORATORY
FOR THE YEAR -1957
Actual construction work has been in progress on the
new County Laboratory quarters on the roof over the main
floor at the Biggs Hospital When completed, greater space
will be available and better natural lighting provided, since
the walls are essentially all windows It is expected that
moving would take place somewhere within six to nine months
According to the enumeration of laboratory tests for
1957, the weighted total was 92,874 35, a decrease of 1,720
from 94,595 2 for 1956, while the "specimens" showed an
increase from 59,340 in 1956 to 73,837 in 1957. Obviously
the weighted total is a more accurate determination of the
work load, since the number of specimens depends entirely-
on
ntirelyon what one calls a "specimen" from year to year It might
be well to omit entirely mention of specimens in the new
report forms It means nothing In any revisions of the new
report forms it would be worth while to include more space
under miscellaneous in the various groups There is also some
confusion as to whether certain chemical tests on urines
should be included under miscellaneous (10), or chemical
examinations (5)
The decrease in 1957 was essentially in categories (1),
(7), (8) and (10) Decrease of 864 in weighting was due
to a late Summer and early Fall slump in surgical operations
Financially the 1957 income from fees was $35,310 50,
as compared to $32,436 00 for 1956, an increase of $2,894 50

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE
COMMISSIONER OF PUBLIC WELFARE
April 8, 1958
To Chairman Harvey Stevenson and Members of the Board
of Supervisors:
The Year 1957 proved to be one of emotional stress for the
Department With its closing, we suffered the loss of two
long term members of the staff, who, in their own way, con-
tributed much to the social welfare program, namely, Com-
missioner John H Post and Case Supervisor Grace Gingras
Commissioner Post's death, December 9, 1957, after a
brief illness, climaxed a 23 -year period of service as Director
and Commissioner of Public Welfare in the City of Ithaca and
Tompkins County During this period of time, Commissioner
Post proved his respect for the taxpayer's dollar in keeping
with an understanding of the clients' problems His interest
in his staff was one of significance in that he worked with
them in their clientele problems and also was interested in
their personal advancements His passing left a deep feeling of
sadness among his employees
Mrs Grace Gingras retired from the Department May 16,
1957 She made a colorful career for herself in the field of
social work through her own endurance and stamina She is
accredited with the organizing of social agencies in New York
State and the writing of books and articles which have been
published and proven valuable in this field Her career in
rehabilitation and social work began in 1931 and terminated
upon her retirement Prior to joining the staff of the Tomp-
kins County Welfare Department in 1939 she was a member of
the New York State Department of Social Welfare Her wis-
dom, foresight and understanding of human beings and their
problems is a great loss to the social welfare field
In the Public Assistance Division the number of cases de-
creased except for Home Relief although the cost per case
increased for Old Age Assistance and Aid to the Blind This
was caused mainly by increased nursing home and hospital
costs
Tompkins County, New York 535
The Home Relief caseload increased in the latter part of
1957 due to increasing unemployment The following chart
shows comparison of Home Relief for November and Decem,
ber 1956 with November and December 1957 Of the 30
Home Relief cases added in December, 26 were for loss of em-
ployment or decreased earnings, 2 for illness, 1 transferred
from ADC to enable a child' to complete year of school and 1
from Child Welfare for the same reason

The Child Welfare Division has the responsibility of super-
vising the care of children in their own home where parents
are inadequate to assume full responsibility for the care of,
their children
In cases where the Children's Court feels that children
should be removed from their home, Child Welfare must find
suitable foster homes We do not expect parents and legally re-
sponsible relatives to contribute according to their ability but
the children's needs must be met regardless
Tompkins County, New York 539
Adoption is another phase of our activities We frequently
have applications for children, but, as is true everywhere,
available children are few Children to be available for adop-
tion must be surrendered by the parents and must pass physi-
cal and mental examinations Abandoned children can not be
adopted without parents' surrendering them However, for the
few available, it is most important that each child be given
permanent parents and a home as early as is feasible Adop-
tion involves the study of many homes in order that we may
find for each such child the family for him

nursing home patients with the promise of $160 per month
effective January 1, 1958 As of December 31, there were 56
patients in nursing homes in Tompkins County and it was
necessary to place 13 outside Tompkins County due to shortage
of beds.
Medical and hospital costs remain high The all-inclusive

the Honorable John F Ryan, Mayor, City of Ithaca, N Y
I have the honor to transmit herewith the seventh annual
report of the Ithaca -Tompkins County Civil Defense for the

INTRODUCTION
During 1957 the Federal Civil Defense Administration
assisted by the New York State Civil Defense Commission
instituted the "Survival Planning" study which is still being
pursued by all appropriate organizations in the state
The commissions "Plan Operation" is described in general
terms in a 13 page leaflet entitled "You and Civil Defense"
which was given widespread distribution in Tompkins County
More detailed directives were prepared by the commission in
Planning Directives Numbered 1 to 7
Inasmuch as Tompkins County has been designated as
primarily a Reception Area special emphasis during 1957 was
given to the organization and establishments of Welfare Cen-
ters throughout the county
It is particularly desired to thank the County Board of
Supervisors for their appropriation of funds for the purchase
of a light rescue truck with standard tool equipment for the
Civil Defense Rescue Service This will afford an added
training incentive and will assure a trained unit in being
instantly available for emergency service

Tompkins County, New York 549
ITHACA-TOMPKINS COUNTY CIVIL DEFENSE
HEADQUARTERS
COUNTY COURT HOUSE, ITHACA, N Y
NOTICE TO ALL ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY
SCHOOL AUTHORITIES OF TOMPKINS COUNTY:
In his annual directive to schools, Lieutenant General
Clarence R Huebner, Director of the New York State Civil
Defense Commission, made these suggestions for 1957-58
"1 The Commission policy requiring regular and
frequent air raid drills in all schools of New
York State shall be continued During the school
year each school should hold not less than three
(3) air raid shelter drills At least one (1) of
these drills should be held prior to the Christmas
vacation The alarm used to signal air raid
shelter drills should be different type from that
used for fire drills
"2 Ability to detect enemy aircraft at considerable
distance from the United States has been in-
creased considerably with the recent completion
of the Distant Early Warning (DEW) line of
radar across the Arctic Circle Because our
schools will be among the first agencies in our
State to be warned of enemy attack I suggest
that all schools now plan and rehearse dismissal
or "GO HOME" exercises during the day other
than at the regularly scheduled dismissal period
The objective of "GO HOME" exercises is to
establish procedures whereby school personnel
may reach home in the shortest possible time
in the event sufficient advance warning of
enemy attack is received during the school day "
The school civil defense program in Tompkins County
this year will involve bomb shelter drills or "drop -to -the -floor"
drills primarily Bomb shelter drills concern the movement of
personnel to the safest areas in a building when an impend-
ing attack is announced "Drop -to -the -floor" drills are exer-
cises which pupils drop to the floor or seek protection under
desks or tables The "drop -to -the -floor" procedure should be
550 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
followed in any building if there is a sudden bright flash
outside, it should be the standard drill for smaller rural
schools
Following General Huebner's suggestion for a "GO
HOME" exercise, we are developing plans for an emergency
dismissal While an exercise of this type is not definitely
planned at the present, such a drill might be attempted in
the spring in place of "Operation Ithaca", which will not be
held this year The annual civil defense exercise for Tompkins
County will be held in conjunction with the National Alert
1958 Civil Defense Test The only schools to participate will
be those conducting summer sessions.
The official civil defense signals which were standardized
nationally on May 10, 1956 are as follows
ALERT SIGNAL A steady blast of three to five
minutes duration This signal will be sounded by
sirens, whistles, horns or similar devices, signifying
that emergency instructions or directions are about
to be issued to the public from the local CD organi-
zation by any or all means available
TAKE COVER SIGNAL • A three-minute warbling
of fluctuating tone of varying pitch It, also, will
be sounded by sirens, whistles, horns or similar de-
vices This signal will mean that an enemy attack
is imminent Also, that all must immediately take
cover in the best available shelter
These signals will have no established sequence Either
signal may be sounded to the exclusion of the other The ALL
CLEAR, used previous to May 10, 1956 is no longer em-
ployed
Since the elimination of the ALL CLEAR signal, the
ALERT SIGNAL (a steady blast of three to five minutes
duration) has been used to indicate that a civil defense drill
or an emergency is over The ALERT SIGNAL, therefore,
serves a two -fold purpose It calls the public to attention to
receive instructions and also may signify that a drill or
emergency is over
Tompkins County, New York 551
The responsibihties of the administrators in the various
schools and districts are :
1 Review with school personnel the two civil defense signals
now in use
2 Be sure that plans for bomb shelter or "drop -to -the -floor"
drills are up-to-date and adequate in view of increasing
enrollment
3 Conduct at least three air raid shelter drills during the
school year, one of them prior to Christmas vacation.
Suggested times for these drills are late October or early,
November for the first term , February and early May for
the second term
4. In the 'secondary schools the use of older, responsible, able-
bodied students should be considered for assignments such
as directing corridor traffic during drills In Ithaca High
School, for example, student members of the Tompkins
County Emergency Corps assist handicapped children to
assigned areas in the shelters and also serve in first aid
stations within the building
5 Instruction in civil defense procedures should be con-
tinued in assemblies, homerooms and appropriate classes ,
for example, health, science and citizenship Caval Defense
for Schools has already been sent to all schools in quantity
for instructional purposes Caval Defense Education Thru
Elementary and Secondary Schools and Home Protection
Exercises will be issued to school administrators in the
near future These materials should be circulated among
the staff as needed in teaching of civil defense measures
6 Request from this office any needed materials such as
7 x 12 cards listing official civil defense instruction, or
sound films such as
You Can Beat the A -Bomb
Duck and Cover
Emergency Action to Save Lives
The Cities Must Fight
Survival Under Atomic Attack
Fire Problems for Householders
Operation A -Bomb (in color)
Operation Ivy (color film of
hydrogen bomb test)

552 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
7 Stress civil defense instruction, especially first-aid, in the
classroom The Self Help and Neighbor Help course is
highly recommended Copies of the Self Help and Neighbor
Help booklet and Civil Defense and the Schools are avail-
able upon request
According to General Heubner, the treatment of hemor-
rhage and shock should be stressed in first-aid instruction
Dr Robert Broad, Chief of the Medical Service, will be glad
to assist with any problems related to such instruction He
may be reached by telephone at Ithaca 3454
8 Make tentative plans for a "GO HOME" exercise, which
would involve notifying regular bus drivers or their 'sub-
stitutes in case of an early dismissal were called Such an
exex case would not be held unless a special bulletin was
issued giving specific instruction Notification would be
given well in advance of this type of drill
Commissioner James E Allen, Jr recently urged adminis-
trators to conduct the drills as required by law, and to report
them promptly After each drill please telephone a report to.,
the Ithaca Board of Education, Ithaca 4-6361, Ext 66
Compliance with the instructions in this bulletin will
help develop the proper pupil attitude toward civil defense
and will train our children in necessary emergency measures
Your cooperation is appreciated very much If we can be
of assistance, call upon us at any time

Q WELFARE
During the year emphasis was placed on the reception of
the homeless by Tompkins County A Welfare Center was es-
tablished in each township exclusive of the Townships of
Enfield and Ithaca
For this purpose the townships of Enfield and Newfield
were combined Each welfare center serves the area of its
township These areas have been broken down into lodging
areas and are now in the process of organization
The primary objective for all of this organization is to
billet homeless persons with the least practicable delay
Homeless surveys have been completed in all of the
townships These surveys were conducted by the Central
Schools of the Townships and the Ithaca Board of Education
Based upon the premise of either three in a room or the size
Tompkins County, New York 555
of the basement, whichever is the smaller, the results indicated
by this survey are as as follows :
Number of homeless
Township billeted
Caroline 1,048
Danby 610
Dryden 7,040
Enfield 1,996
Groton 3,443
Lansing 3,213
Newfield 5,658
Ulysses 1,067
Tompkins County has been directed to provide for the
reception of the minimum of 15,519 homeless persons by the
New York State Civil Defense Commission
RECOMMENDATIONS
It is urgently recommended that every possible step be
taken by the County Board of Supervisors to provide
1 Tompkins County with CONELRAD
2 The more densely populated areas with adequate
air raid warning devices
The safety of the lives of thousands of persons is de-
pendent entirely on one or both of the above items
In an emergency requiring instant action there is no
way known other than the above to apprise the people of the
impending danger requiring that they either take immediate
shelter or that they should turn on their AM radio sets to a
Civil Defense frequency
The above recommendations have been repeatedly made
by the Civil Defense Director to the County Board of Super-
visors over a period of years and it is believed that during
the present period of international tensions these recommen-
dations are more important than ever before. Earnest, im-
mediate and complete studies of the above with appropriate
action are urged at this time

ANNUAL REPORT OF COUNTY ATTORNEY
1957
To the Board of Supervisors of Tompkins County :
With the increase of county activities in many lines, the
work in the office of the County Attorney has correspondingly
increased Both Assistant County Attorney Williamson and
myself devoted more hours to county business in 1957 than in
any previous year In this report I shall briefly review the
more important items
Airport
In connection with the County Airport our office assisted
in completing applications for federal aid for the purchase
and for improvement of the runways The lease of property
for Visual Omni Range and the proposal to transfer a beacon
tower from Warren, Massachusetts, were reviewed Other
items of business were a modification of the operations area
lease with Mohawk, contracts with Charles W Tour and
Ithaca Airlines Limousine Service, the proposed lease to
Allen W Hayes and the contract with Carl Crandall for en-
gineering services I also delivered to the Civil Aeronautics
Administration a title certification of the airport property
Hospital
At the request of the hospital administrator I made a
title certification covering the hospital property on the Tru-
mansburg Road which was used in connection with an appli-
cation for federal aid I also prepared contracts with the City
of Ithaca for water and sewage services for the Biggs Hos-
pital, which were duly approved The architects who planned
an addition to the hospital on the Qaurry Street site—Messrs
Eggers and Higgins of New York City—put in a bill for
services of 562,335 79 By correspondence with these archi-
tects and a conference in my office, this claim was settled for
551,405 06, saving the county nearly 511,000 00
Welfare
As in previous years I conducted several sales of proper-
ty at public auction in the lobby of the Court House and more
than a dozen deeds of the Welfare Department were prepared
Tompkins County, New York 557
either for conveyance to the Commissioner or to the pur-
chasers of the property sold
Robert I Williamson, Assistant County Attorney, in ad-
dition to assisting me in the general business of the office,
conducted nine paternity cases in Children's Court and twen-
ty-five responsible relative cases including cases under the
Uniform Support of Dependent's Act In addition, Mr Wil-
liamson attended approximately forty Workmen's Compensa-
tion hearings held throughout the year
Legislation
During the legislative sessions we followed the bills
affecting the interests of the county and towns and prepared
resolutions for the Legislative Committee on bills that were
approved or opposed Two local laws were drafted and en-
acted by the Board, one for the establishment of the County
Tax Department and one adopting the system for permanent
registration Revision of the Rules of the Board was com-
pleted and adopted in January Incidentally, on my own time
I made a study of the State Constitution and the decisions
of the Court of Appeals on Constitutional Law, and published
five articles in the Journal for the information of voters on
the proposition for a Constitutional Convention
Miscellaneous
In the course of the year I rendered twenty-five opinions
to county officers or departments Eight of these involved
the construction or provisions of the Election Law, three
concerned the County Clerk's Office, two were matters arising
in the Health Department, two for the Highway Department
and others were for the Welfare Department, County Treas-
urer and the Probation Department Besides these written
opinions our office answered a good many inquiries in person
or by telephone
Attached to this report is a summary of legislation effect-
ing municipalities which was enacted at the 1957 Session of
the Legislature
Respectfully submitted,

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION INSURANCE
COMMITTEE
1957
To the Board of Supervisors :
The Compensation Insurance Committee wishes to sub-
mit its annual report on the Tompkins County Self -Insurance
Plan from January 1, 1957 to December 31, 1957
Previous to 1956 the reports were made from November
first to November first Local Laws 1 and 2 were adopted on
June 11, 1956 which provide for budgeting in advance We
have a 100% participation of all the towns, and the Villages of
Cayuga Heights, Dryden and Freeville together with all civil
defense volunteers and volunteer firemen
The new volunteer Firemen's Benefit Law went into
effect on March 1, 1957 which necessitated the making of a
whole new set of forms Formerly volunteer firemen cases
were settled under General Municipal Law, now all cases
have to be reported to the Compensation Board
Of the 162 cases added during the year we had two
village cases and nine firemen cases
