At the committee meeting of the whole held on January
2, 1958 Mr Lounsbery, Chairman of the Sales Tax Committee
read the following report
SALES TAX REPORT
The Sales Tax Committee has reached agreement on the
following:
1 We will recommend to the Board of Supervisors the en-
actment of a 2% County -wide Sales and Use Tax
2 That the Sales Tax become effective as soon as pos-
sible, preferably by April 1
12 January 13, 1958
3 That this shall be accomplished by a resolution rather
than by a local law
4 That part of the revenue from a sales tax, not allocated
to the county, shall be divided between the nine towns and the
city on a population basis
5 That none of the revenue shall be used for education
purposes for the following reasons
A All of the centralized school districts, as well
as the Ithaca Consolidated District, extend beyond
the county boundaries This would make it difficult
to arrive at a distribution that would be acceptable
to everyone Even if this could be accomplished, the
school taxpayers in the area outside this county
would have an unfair advantage in that they would
benefit from a decreased school tax rate, but would
contribute nothing toward the sales tax that made
the reduction possible
B The amount of pension and partial exempt
property in the county is nearly $1,500,000, and is in-
creasing rapidly While this property is exempt from
county, town and city taxes, it is not exempt from
school taxes
C If the money derived from a sales tax is
spread too thin by too many divisions, the whole pur-
pose of the tax will be defeated—namely, the re-
duction of real estate taxes
6 Estimated Revenue from Tax
When Monroe County had a 2% sales tax, their revenue,
was about $16 50 per capita Broome County estimated that
their 2% tax will return $17 50 per capita It is generally
conceded that the present population of Tompkins County is
about 70,000 If we use a conservative figure of $16 00 per
capita, we should take in about $1,120,000 Since business and
industry pay about 50% of a sales tax, cost to the average
individual would be about $8 00 a year However, studies have
shown that a family of four with an annual income of from
$3,000 to $3,300 would of necessity spend about 70% of their
income on non-taxable items, such as food and rent.
7 Distribution of the Tax
January 13, 1958 13
Your committee agrees that the revenue from a sales tax
should be used to achieve the maximum reduction in real
estate taxes This could probably best be accomplished if the
county were to apply all of the revenue toward the county
budget This would eliminate about 2/3 to 3/4 of the county
tax in the city and the nine towns
However, it is now apparent that the city will ask for a
share of the tax in unrestricted cash
We, therefore, offer the following compromise—that the
county take 30% and that the remaining 70% be divided be-
tween the city and the nine towns on a population basis
Assuming that the net revenue, after the cost of admin-
istration is $1,000,000, the Board of Supervisors could, by
the use of tax anticipation notes and its $300,000 share from
the sales tax, avoid the necessity of bonding the county for
completion of the renovation at Biggs, as well as the lengthen-
ing and widening of the runway at the Airport
In the event the county should decide the bond for these
capital improvements, the $300,000 could be used to show
a reduction in the county tax rate
If the sales tax becomes effective as rcommended, we
should have in 1958 some $500,000 of unallocated funds to
be used by the county, city and the nine towns
Using the latest Federal Census (1950), the proposed
70% or $700,000 would be divided in the following manner :
Per Cent
Population of Total Amt Rec'd
Caroline 1,990 3 2 $ 22,400
Danby 1,555 2 6 18,200
Dryden 5,006 8 5 59,500
Enfield 1,316 2 2 15,400
Groton 4,246 7 2 50,400
Town of Ithaca 7,282 12 3 86,100
Lansing 3,195 5 4 37,800
Newfield 1,891 3 2 22,400
Ulysses 3,474 5 9 41,300
City of Ithaca 29,257 49 5 346,500
Totals 59,122 100% $700,000
14 January 13, 1958
Any municipality that has, or will have, a special census
taken will be entitled to the benefits of that census In the
event that all of the towns and the city have a special census,
the city and the towns' share will increase or decrease in direct
proportion to the percentage of population increase in the city.
and each town as it relates to the average increase in the
county as a whole.
Said report approved in principle for submission to the
meeting with the Chamber of Commerce
The chairman of the board read the following letter he
had drafted to Robert Eastman, President of the Ithaca Cham-
ber of Commerce, regarding sales tax for the county
"Dear Sir : :
I am not surprised that the Chamber of Commerce does
not want a sales tax You represent the merchants in the City
of Ithaca and no merchant wants to collect a sales tax But
do you realize that thousands of towns and cities over this
United States are collecting sales taxes for either state or
local governments Not too many miles south of us hes the
great state of Pennsylvania and they have a sales tax over
the entire state Is it any worse for your merchants here in
Ithaca to collect this tax than those in Pennsylvania, or even
in the cities and counties right here in New York State that
have a sales tax?
Every year our taxes go up Not through any fault of the
Board of Supervisors, because we would like to keep taxes
down But the demands which groups like yours have made
upon us have been the real cause of this rise in taxes Right
now during 1958 we will have to have several hundred
thousand dollars to complete the hospital and build the run-
ways at the airport This is in addition to our tax budget for
1958 We will have to raise this money in one of three ways,
either a bond issue, a sales tax or much higher property taxes'
I want to say a few words about a bond issue In 1934, the
first year I was a member of the Board of Supervisors we
started paying the bonds on the court house and Jail We
paid $16,000 that year on the principal and $27,500 interest
For the first 15 years the interest money paid on these bonds
exceeded the amount paid each year on the principal We have
January 13, 1958 15
paid for this court house nearly twice over and the bonds
still have several years to run I am definitely opposed to
paying for anything twice over That means we must either
raise our real estate tax or have a sales tax
Contrary to statements made in the paper, a sales tax in
Tompkins County could definitely reduce property taxes.
The plan which we are studying now is this 30% of the sales
tax would be retained by the county to pay for these capital
improvements The law provides that we could pay these over
a period of 5 years This would leave part of this 30% re-
tained by the county to reduce property tax The other 70%
of the sales tax would be divided between the city and the
towns on a population basis The law states that the monies
due the towns must be left in the hands of the county treasurer
to reduce property taxes The city or villages have the privi-
lege of leaving theirs or taking it in cash In Broome County
the taxes in the various towns have in many instances been
cut right in two for 1958
No one wants more taxes You don't and I don't, but if we
do have to have them let's be fair Let's make sure of what we
are doing Theodore Roosevelt once said, "Be sure you are
right then go ahead" If other states, other counties, other
communities have found that the sales tax was the best and
probably the fairest way for them to raise money to pay their
expenses then we should give the matter full and unbiased
consideration
If the Board of Supervisors should decide to have a sales
tax in Tompkins County, we shall expect full cooperation
from the Ithaca Chamber of Commerce "

There was some discussion as to pressure groups request-
ing public services without giving any thought to where
the funds were coming from to pay for them It was brought
out that the boas d had been led to believe that PPR would not
be very expensive but results now show that the cost will be
about three times the estimated cost
I Mr Bower told the board that he resented the action of
the League of Women Voters in pressuring the establishment
of PPR and stated that he had been ridiculed for his stand
that the cost would be double that of the estimate He further

ments of a court of record and for services in executing the
warrant he shall be entitled to the same fees, which he may
collect in the same manner In the discretion of the Director

powers conferred by law upon sheriffs, but shall be entitled to
no fee or compensation in excess of the actual expenses paid
in the performance of such duty If a warrant is returned not

ment therefor and execution thereon had been returned un-
satisfied

Seconded by Mr Graves Carried
Mr Walpole inquired as to the distribution of the share
going to the village
March 3, 1958 73
Mr Newman answered the question by stating that the
village would not get any of the share outside of the village.
Mr Graves read a letter from a constituent giving his re-
flections after the public hearing
Mr Graves read the following prepared statement •
"Mr Chairman, there is one point I would like to make very
clear at this time The threatened loss of this Job will never
be a factor in determing the way I will vote on any issue I
have always considered it an honor and a privilege to partici-
pate in local government and I am thankful to have been
given the opportunity My feelings remain the same even
after the vicious attacks the members of the board have been
subjected to during the sales tax controversy I have earned
my own way since I was 14 years of age and as long as I
have two hands I will continue to do so Right or wrong I
have always voted and will continue to vote, after careful
consideration of the facts, for what I feel is best for the tax-
payers of this county and my ward in the city of Ithaca
The need for a broader tax base has long been needed in
Tompkins County and I feel very strongly that it is unfair
that approximately 17,600 taxable properties have to bear
the costs of all government in this county with a population of
70,000 people
Why should so few have to pay so much to carry so many
Real estate taxes have risen steadily in the past few years
and will continue to rise without capital improvements
Ithaca's composite tax rate (city, school, state and county)
is now approximately $30 per thousand As things look at this
time by 1960 the tax rate will be $40 per thousand
The city has kept its head buried in the sand for the past 25
years or more by failing to follow the recommendations of the
Board of Public Works on much needed improvements, such
as streets, bridges, etc A mess of this type does not happen
over night It is the result of years of neglect The minutes of
the Board of Public Works meetings tell the story very clearly.
Revenue raised by taxation for the county has increased
from $1,166,000 in 1955 to $1,503,000 in 1957 for an increase
74 March 3, 1958
of $337,000 This increase involved no capital expenditures,
only normal operating expenses and the additional demands
for more county services.
Some of the additional demands we are faced with in 1958,
and this is only March 3 with 10 months more to go for more
requests, are as follows :—
Uniform Jury system
PPR
Federated Libraries
Tax Department
Sheriff's Department
Probation department
Nursing Home Patients
State Retirement
Loss of state aid on hospital
deficit (1960)

These needs have been pointed out in meeting after meet-
ing, but as usual if you do not want to see you can always
close your eyes
Of the 17,600 taxable properties in the county approxi-
mately 14,000 are one -family homes Seventy-eight per cent
of the properties in the county are non -income properties.
I maintain that a strong, effective and immediate measure,
must be found to lift the heavy burden of taxation from the
privately owned homes in this county
March 3, 1958 75
Even with the tremendous increase in the cost of govern-
ment throughout the state, Tompkins County has had the
least tax increase of all the counties in this state in the past
15 years
Both city and county had good capital reserve funds, but
the practices of using these funds to hold real estate at a
reasonable level has now come to an end These funds are no
more !
Now, without a broader tax base, we have two alternatives.
We can stand pat with what we have or start borrowing
money such as Rochester did to the tune of $16,500,000 up
to 1952 (it paid off $15,000,000 from 1952 to 1957), or
Syracuse who ended up by borrowing money just to pay the
interest on their indebtedness, (Syracuse is now debt free), or'
Binghamton who was finally faced in January 1957 with a $10
per thousand tax increase January 1958 gave Binghamton a
$3 per thousand decrease
This report is the result of 157 hours spent gathering data
on the sales tax question, not including telephone conversa-
tions. Commencing January 2nd to January 20th I kept a daily
record of opinions on the sales tax through personal contact,
letters and telephone conversations, with people from all
walks of life in our county The results of which are 348
people contacted.
266 were in favor of tax
64 were opposed
18 undecided
Renters included those who knew where taxes raised $1
per thousand, but rent is usually raised $5 per month
From my ward where there are over 1,000 voters, 91
people contacted me with 73 favorable and 14 opposed. This
past week I received 22 contacts of which 15 were for and
7 against There were additional 5 cards and letters opposing
the tax from businessmen.
As a matter of record, from the Chamber of Commerce's
"Call your Supervisor Day" January 9th these calls became
76 March 3, 1958
fewer and fewer From January 21st to February 11th I
have received but two telephone calls on the sales tax
Chamber of Commerce Workshop, January 13th
22 communities listed problems
12 problems call for more real estate taxes
2 could be listed as long term capital
improvements
Acquiring money for these problems was not listed
as a problem
The Chamber of Commerce has 602 members, less than 1%
of the county's population 332 members voted in the poll
What happened to the other 270 members? Their members
were polled after a decision was announced by their direc-
tors
RETAIL BUSINESS REPORTS
COMMERCE CLEARING HOUSE, National reporting au-
thority on tax and business law reported November 18, 1957
that sales tax collections out -distanced all other sources of
tax revenue in 27 states during the fiscal year of 1957
On November 1, 1957, the city of Syracuse reported "City's
first 4 million sales tax likely " Could you lay this statement
to the loss of retail trade
Another report on Syracuse issued by the STANDARD
RATE AND DATA SERVICE and based on data gathered
from federal, state and local sources "Survey shows city re-
tail at high level " Boy, those Syracuse merchants must he.
starving
Rochester's capital improvements have been tremendous
This City's tax rate has remained stable for many years
Department store sales in the Triple Cities area for the
year 1957 were 2% ahead of 1956, as reported by the FED-
ERAL RESERVE BANK OF NEW YORK on February 2,
1958.
A letter from the Rochester Bureau of Municipal Research
dated January 27, 1958 states in part, "The Tax has resulted
March 3, 1958 77
in a rather striking decrease in property tax rates, particu-
larly in the towns Rochester's share will have the effect of
reducing the city and 'school rate roughly $15 10 per thousand
of assessed valuation."
As of December 1, 1957 Broome County received $2,907,000
in sales tax receipts, anticipated revenue $1,800,000
Operation cost less than 2%
The county tax levy eliminated in the towns
Sales of cars between individuals alone netted
$60,000 Far more than was needed for operation
cost
In our county a $150,000 budget increase means your tax
is raised by $1 per thousand
The Bureau of Internal Revenue figures that persons in
the $3,500 to $5,000 income range spend about 20% of their
income on taxable items under the sales tax law This would
mean that persons in this range would pay from $14 to $20
per year, unless large items were purchased such as auto-
mobiles, etc
The statement from local labor is a national labor policy.
The points presented do not in any way apply to the unfair
tax situation in Tompkins County
There has been a steadily increasing rise in the burden
of taxation placed upon private homes throughout the county
which impairs the ability of the owners to properly provide
and maintain for the same, and in many instances discourages
the acquisition of homes by citizens of the county who continue
to remain as tenants, to the end that home owners and the
institution of home ownership is deteriorating
Until a broader tax base is found for Tompkins County?
I cannot with a clear conscience vote one 'cent more for new
services or additional appropriations, unless it is a matter
of life or death Borrowed funds must be repaid with interest
at a future date from current taxes It has been said that
our composite tax rate is low in this county compared to other
counties Anyone in government knows that under no con-
ditions can you compare tax rates between municipalities, due
to services rendered, type of government, etc
78 March 3, 1958
Are taxes low or high in Tompkins County '—Two homes
are assessed for $10,000, lst owner—salary $5,000 Real
estate taxes are high 2nd owner—salary $10,000 Real estate
taxes are low.
Take your choice
We have reached the point where we must look reality
in the face or bankrupt the backbone of our community, its
homes, farms and smaller enterprises
The argument that we should bond and go into debt has
been the path followed by ever so many communities where
the sales tax finally is adopted as a last resort and after it
can be of no relief to the property tax, being consumed in
debt service
Intelligence and economy dictate that a community's bor-
rowing capacity should be conserved for depression years
I believe that we should adopt the sales and use tax as a
fair, equal, proven and successful tax, thereby relieving
the burdensome real estate tax and putting the future of the
county on a sound financial footing "
Mr Flynn remarked that he thought the people had been
forgotten and he maintained that there were several wage
earners in a single real estate property and he did not approve
of a fence between merchants and the court house, and I shall
have to vote "no" on the sales tax
Mr Abbott stated that he went into the study of the sales
tax with an open mind and feels that the man with the low,
income is going to pay more, that there are hidden features
that are going to reflect in purchases He asserted it might
make cheaters and so many bad features pertaining to
this kind of tax that he would have to vote "no"
Mr Lounsbery said perhaps he should make a long speech,
but did not intend to at this time , that most of the members
had arrived at a decision as to how they were going to vote.
Two or three months ago the sales tax could have been passed
by 11 votes He said it looked as if government was run by
pressure and maybe that is what we should have
March 3, 1958 79
He expressed appreciation to (1) his entire committee for
the hours, days and weeks spent (2) Charles Chatfield for his
question periods held on the radio and (3) WHCU for their
means of public information that placed the thing down the
middle and he was thankful for that
Mr Bower recited some of the surprising things that this
study of the sales tax had accomplished— (1) that taxes on
real property are very low and not at all burdensome, (2)
apparently the citizens are interested in a bond issue instead
of short time notes (3) $15,000,000 is to be spent for capital
improvements for all persons in the county and is bound to
be an increase in property taxes (4) if a sales tax would hurt
the low income bracket maybe the assessing of our property
should be revamped and (5) thanked the committee for their
excellent work Even though I am in favor of the tax I
assume the vote will be divided and I will continue to do the
best I can on the board
Mr Culligan asserted he was a freshman and had 'spent two
of the most trying months in his life He stated that one thing
was quite noticeable that some people had shown their colors.
He said he was elected Last fall to represent the sixth ward ,
had spent six or seven weeks calling people and could not say
by talking with them whether they were in favor or against
the sales tax
"The county has prided itself for low taxes for years and
many improvements should be made and he was not going to
be influenced by business men"
Mr Culligan made the suggestion that we put this up for
referendum this fall which would give more people a fair
voice He remarked that it might be hard to find decent men
to sit on the common council
Mr Abbott stated that any reference that he had been
pressured is absolutely untrue

i
i
March 10, 1958 87
WHEREAS we feel hesitant to increase the tax burden on
real property owners, especially in the rural areas where
we feel taxes are too high now, to the extent they will be
prohibitive to people with low fixed incomes, farmers, and to
people wtih low earning capacity, and
WHEREAS extremely high taxes will discourage both
industry and home building, as well as much needed and de-
sired improvements and
WHEREAS the City of Ithaca, while having over one-half
the total assessed valuation of the county and only pay about
38% of the expense of county government, and
WHEREAS we feel this throws an unfair burden on the
towns, when contrasted with the benefits derived, and
WHEREAS the City of Ithaca through its various organi-
zations, industry and others have emphatically shown their
desire for a local municipally owned airport because of the
benefit to business, industry and others, and
WHEREAS at the time the county was persuaded to buy
the airport by these various organizations, industry and others
the cost of operating and improving said airport was grossly
misrepresented to the board of supervisors by Mohawk Airlines
and others, and
WHEREAS we are presently committed to highway and
hospital expenditures in the amount of about $700,000, all of
which must be borrowed, and ,
WHEREAS in fairness to these organizations, industry
and others who feel the need for an airport, we can not at
this time say when, if evei, the airport will be improved, now
therefore be it
RESOLVED, That because of the aforesaid reasons the
county does hereby offer to the City of Ithaca for the sum of
$1 00 and be it further
RESOLVED, That this $1 payment shall constitute full
payment to the county for the towns' equity of about 62% of
the cost of acquisition and expense so far entailed and the
city's share of about 38% for the same purposes, the total
amounting to approximately $350,000, and be it further
RESOLVED, That if the much publicized need for a local
airport still exists, we, the board of supervisors, hope the City
of Ithaca will heed the pleas of those who want and need an
up-to-date, airport, and accept the generous offer of the
county

adoption:
WHEREAS, it appears that it will be necesary in the near
future for the county to borrow a substantial amount of money
for hospital by the issuance and sale of serial bonds, and it
is probable that a better rate of interest can be obtained if
the county has the services and legal opinion of a New York
bond attorney
RESOLVED, upon recommendation of the Finance Com-
mittee, That county attorney be, and he hereby is authorized
to request the services of a reputable firm of bond attorneys
in connection with the issuance and sale of the proposed bond
issue
Seconded by Mr Gridley
Mr Bower asked the county treasurer to report on appor-
tionment of county budget and tax rates on six projected
budgets His report is as follows:

Mr. Graves read the following prepared statement showing
potential manner of financing the airport reconstruction with-
out tax icreases
"Gentlemen
I believe in being progressive, but not to the point of
bankruptcy, some where along about now we should begin to
live within our means
As most of you know our county roads are in pretty bad
shape, and in my mind these roads should be our primary
objective; they benefit all county residents.
We have three top notch airports within a 50 mile radius
of Ithaca, all acquired through taxpayer contributions, and
to be realistic, gentlemen, we could actually operate a bus
line to and from the Elmira airport a lot cheaper than trying
to live up to CAA regulations and operate the Tompkins
County Airport
I think we are all agreed as to who the direct beneficiaries
are of air service and the airport, therefore in all seriousness
I offer the following plan for consideration in acquiring the
$312,500 needed without going to the home owners of this
county for one cent.
This money can be raised by contributions from the various
area groups who receive the direct benefits from air service.
Following is a breakdown of proposed contributions.
Cornell University $125,000
Financial Group 42,500
Manufacturing 75,000 All
Professional 10,000 benefit
Retail 20,000 directly
Public Service 10,000
Tourist 5,000
GLF 25,000
Total $312,500
i
April 14, 1958 123
This is not beyond comprehension It is being done all over
the United States for churches, hospitals, Y M C A's etc This
amount when collected could be turned over to the county and
added to the Federal Grant and the suggested CAA airport im-
provements made Any contributions over the $312,500 re-
ceived could be put aside for future improvements An ar-
rangement such as this would satisfy 90% of the residents of
Tompkins County When you try to keep up with the Jones's
you are bound to lose your shirt
County tax money $162,000 Purchase
312,500 Runway
Building 30,000 to 90,000 House Equipment
277,000 Additional request
Future requests ' Sewage
9 Terminal Building
Paved roads and approaches
County tax money could easily reach $2,000,000 in the near
future Maintenance and safety should be our only concern,
at least until we can get our heads above water.

Mr Graves submitted the following written opinion
"Mr Chairman and Members of the Board
The following is a statemnt of my opinion regarding the
airport .
1 We should have an airport
2 The present airport with some improvements will be
adequate for Tompkins County needs for five to ten
years
3 Research and Industrial Development can be obtained in
that area without investing the large amounts of money
so often mentioned here for airport improvements
4 We do not have to go along with the CAA recommen-
dations on this issue No one has pronounced this airport
unsafe even in its present condition I can't believe that
even the CAA would want to see the county bankrupt
5 Tompkins County can never become a trunk line port
It will remain as it is now, a port for feeder lines only.
With three trunk line airports within a fifty -mile radius
of Ithaca, why do we have to have a metropolitan airport?
6 The question now arises, how large and how elaborate
an airport can we afford now, and possibly five or ten
years from now
As you all know, the county has borrowed heavily the
first five months of this year and we still have seven
months to go (Just about a year ago we were well off
with a reserve of approximately $700,000 ) Now we are
in debt for close to a million dollars Budget time comes
again this fall the same as any other year when we have
to try to figure out how to pay back some of this bor-
rowed money without increasing taxes How much more
can the property owners of this county stand?
7 Again we find ourselves neglecting county roads to take
care of an airport.
162 June 24, 1958
8 We can never expect this airport to do anything more
than break even On any municipal airport you have to
forget any amortization of capital improvements. This
has been proved throughout the United States
The deficit can only be made up by taking more from the
county taxpayers, thus adding to his share of the ex-
pense for airport capital improvements
9 It has been said that through industrial development of
the airport according to CAA plans we will broaden our
tax base ' If we look back ten years and compare the
tax base of that time with the present one, then examine
the tax rate, has it been reduced'? Our tax base will be
up four or five million dollars this year, but will our
tax rate be reduced?
10 We should live within our means and progress with what
we can afford Therefore, I can not see pouring one
million or more of taxpayer dollars in the next few years
into a metropolitan sized airport
JAMES B. GRAVES"
Mr Fuller pointed out a potential revenue to aid in the
support of the airport without the extra burden on taxpayers
He pointed out that in the city, parking meters produce
revenues, as does parking in the state parks and travel on
the thruways He suggested that consideration be given to a
one dollar charge on each airplane ticket sold in Ithaca Since
during the past month 2564 passengers have boarded Mohawk
planes in Ithaca, the yearly revenue to the county for airport
support would be considerable He stressed the fact that since
special enabling legislation for the purpose would be required
that immediate attention be given to requesting our state
representatives to introduce such legislation in Albany
He was supported in his contention by Mr Miller who said
he had talked with many people in and around Ithaca, as well
as in his own town, within the past few days and they had
all supported the idea
Mr. Gordon also agreed wtih the plan but said he believed
a three per cent tax would be more realistic.
Mr Abbott stated that he believes that attention should be
June 24, 1958 163
paid to some means of financing the airport other than by tax-
ation and that he had written to Denver, Colorado for details
of their success where a similar plan is in operation.

REPORT OF EQUALIZATION COMMITTEE FOR
APPORTIONMENT OF GENERAL AND HIGHWAY
TAX LEVIES FOR THE YEAR 1959
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 just relation to the
valuations in all the tax districts 1n the county; that in the
opinion of the members of the committee such valuations do
not bear such just 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
statement below

Resolution No 324 Petition to Interstate Commerce Com-
mission and Public Service Com-
mission RE . Proposed Discontinuance
of the Service of the Lehigh Valley
R R Co.
Mr Gordon offered the folowing resolution and moved its
adoption :
WHEREAS, the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company has
petitioned the Interstate Commerce Commission for authority to
terminate its passenger service to and from New York City
and Buffalo, New York, and all terminals in between, including
Tompkins County, New York, and
WHEREAS, the Tompkins County Board of Supervisors is
cognizant of the fact that under the present circumstances and
conditions, the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company has financial
problems with regard to the continuation of said passenger
service, and
WHEREAS, the Tompkins County Board of Supeivisors is
fully aware of the permanent need for Lehigh Valley Railroad
passenger service for Tompkins County and other counties from
New York City to and from Buffalo, New York, and therefore
be it
RESOLVED, That the Tompkins County Board of Super-
visors does hereby make the following statements and recom-
mendations to the Interstate Commerce Commission and the
Public Service Commission in requesting that the petition of
the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company to discontinue the pass-
enger service be denied
I Lehigh Valley Railroad Passenger Service is vital to
exsistence of Tompkins County
1 Being located in the Finger Lakes Region of the State
of New York, Tompkins County is off the main lines of
transportation of the State The only main passenger
line available to the county is the Lehigh Valley Rail-
road Main Passenger Line The very nature of our
lakes and high plateau topography causes this county to
be faced with an isolation alleviated only by mass
transportation facilities such as railroad passenger
service
2 Railroad Service is our only all year, all weather basic
transportation service, and without it Tompkins County
would become seriously ciippled It is our only per-
manent mass contact with the outside world We have
no other railroad passenger line operating in Tompkins
County It is the origination point for thousands of
our citizens for world travel
3 Said passenger service is also vital for our educational
institutions and industries and their professional and
December 23, 1958, 441
business staffs Such institutions and industries are
continually expanding and the population of our county
is increasing each year The termination of this pass-
enger service would very definitely harmfully effect this
educational, economical and population growth, and
hence, would impair the very existence of this county
II. Responsibilities of Interstate Commerce Commission
1 It is reasonable to assume that the main function
of the Interstate Commerce Commission is to supervise,
enhance, increase and otherwise facilitate transportation
It is to serve the people in that respect, and not to
curtail such services It is to see that transportation
services to the people do not deteriorate
2 It is suggested that any such railroad business will of
necessity close its doors if it fails to provide good service
over a period of years, if it fails to make railroad travel
appealing, and if it continues to use antiquated equip-
ment The Interstate Commerce Commission is hereby
requested to scrutinize the efficiency or inefficiency of
operation and business management of the Lehigh
Valley Railroad Service over the past several years
with a view towards discovering the I main reasons why
said passenger service has not been profitable as the
railroad alleges
3 The Interstate Commerce Commission is also hereby
requested to restudy the various regulations issued by it
to control railroad operation with a view towards elimin-
ating unduly restrictive regulations and to seek the
passage of remedial legislation to provide railroads with
some relief, economical and otherwise, in its operations
perhaps legislation or regulations allowing merger of
railroad companies would assist in the alleviation of this
problem
III National and Civil Defense require said service
1 The Tompkins County Board of Supervisors is fully
cognizant of the vital and essentialneed for railroad
passenger service for national and civil defense Past
wars have proven that without such service a nation
is ultimately defeated Billions of dollars are being
spent by our governments for national and civil defense,
and without railroad service, this would go for nought
It is essential for the defense of this county and all of
the cities and counties situated along' this railroad line
from New York City to Buffalo that said Lehigh Valley
Railroad Passenger Service be maintained permanently
This holds true throughout the United States
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Tompkins County
Board of Supervisors requests that public hearings be held by
the Interstate Commerce Commission on this petition of the
Lehigh Valley Railroad and that this county be notified of the
442 December 23, 1958
dates and times of said hearings and that Tompkins County be
given an opportunity to testify at said hearings

REPORT OF THE COUNTY HISTORIAN FOR 1958
To the Board of Supervisors :
It was my privilege to attend a meeting of county and
town historians held in New York City, February 10th and
ilth at the Hotel Roosevelt A large number of local histori-
ans from all parts of the State were in attendance The State
Historian, Dr A B Corey and other historians conducted
the sessions which proved to be very helpful and informative
I gave two lectures during the year In March, at Fall
Creek School and in June, at Lansing Central School
It was brought to my attention that there was an ancient
log cabin still standing in the town of Lansing After diligent
search I learned that it was built by one of Lansing's early
settlers by the name of North Members of this family left a
distinguished record as pioneers here and in Michigan and
Nebraska.
I wrote an article for the Ithaca Journal on the log cabin
which appeared as a feature article in the June 17th issue As
t result of that publicity other information on log houses was
brought to my attention which resulted in a visit to them. I
found two still standing in the town of Dryden and two in the
town of Newfield One in Dryden retains its original log ap-
pearance and is used for storage, the others have the ex-
teriors and interiors covered; one is a barn and the other two
still occupied as dwellings
Many requests of a historical nature came to me during
the year. One was a request to furnish a collection of photo-
graphs showing old Tompkins County houses of the Victorian
and Greek Revival architectural period, for an exhibition held
in Buffalo. These were collected, prepared, mailed and ex-
hibited
i
Tompkins County, New York 555
Several old Ithaca houses and landmarks have been de-
molished during the year and I have furnished information
concerning them, notably; the oldest frame house which stood
near the head of Linn St It was built in 1800 and had served
as a tavern, store and one time farm house of Simeon DeWitt,
New York State's first Surveyor -General and Ithaca's first
active real estate dealer Well over a hundred years it served
as a residence Another old landmark torn down was the brick
house at Falls St and Lake St , once used as a blacksmith
shop and as a residence up to the time it was demolished This
property was once owned by Ezra Cornell
During the year I have been in constant association with
William Heidt, curator of the Historical Museum I admire
his deep interest in the affairs of that institution and feel that
the Historical Society and the County is fortunate to have such
a devoted and tireless worker as curator
Respectfully,
W GLENN NORRIS

ANNUAL REPORT OF CURATOR FOR 1958
To the Board of Supervisors:
For the third consecutive year, Tompkins County resi-
dents continued to predominate as users of the facilities af-
forded by the Museum A continuing statistical record begun
July 1, 1956, demonstrates that between that date and the
end of 1958, nine out of ten of the 8,000 visitors were resi-
dents of the county Obviously, this is as it should be since
the Museum is not maintained or publicized as a tourist
attraction
For the year 1958, the specific figures were County visi-
tors, 2,250 , state, 161, outside of state, 112, foreign, 10 These
figures represent persons who came for some service; those
who dropped in casually are not registered.
Mostly the service sought concerns the collection of arti-
facts Whether it be the Iroquois items of those of the early
settlers, visitors seek specific information identification of
article itself, its use and the era in which it was utilized This
quest of definite information indicates a widening and deepen-
ing of local history interest
Another indication of this awakened interest in local
history is manifested by those who seek data on specific phases
of our history for papers and even a book At present one re-
searcher has devoted a year to his field of interest in Tompkins
County history
Visitors from the more distant section of the country are
mainly concerned with genealogical records of their ancestors
Interest shown by local groups has increased as indi-
cated by the fact that 37 such groups were in attendance at
the Museum as a part of their program
Increasingly, teachers in the schools of the county are in-
t
Tompkins County, New York 557
eluding at least one study visit a year by their social studies
classes
_ Another evidence of this growing interest in Tompkins
County history is the steady but as yet not large demand for
printed material The folder on Historical Markers is being
widely circulated, and the sale of several historical pubh
cations continues, particularly to young parents and new-
comers
The Ithaca Journal has been of inestimable help to the
Museum in publishing much historical matter that its staff
develops These articles are preserved in the Museum's files
and thus become available to researchers not only of today but
of the future
During the year, the number of collections donated to the
Museum totaled 74 and added hundreds of significant individ-
ual items to the collection One series of contributions by Mrs
Dorothy Longnecker has enabled the Museum to arrange a
display of early -day fighting devices that is of historical di-
mensions Already one Elmira College professor has photo-
graphed the collection to illustrate a treatise on Early Ameri-
can Lighting.
Thanks to the Board of Supervisors, improved heating
and fluorescent lighting of the Museum has added immeasur-
ably to the comfort and convenience of staff and visitors,
especially evening groups
Throughout the year, topical exhibits are arranged Sev-
eral were arranged this year at the request of teachers and
groups Exhibits were displayed in the windows of two banks
and material has been loaned for plays and historical pag-
eants, Incidentally, the military trappings for one TV scene
by Ithaca College were from the Museum's collection
Miss Lillian Leland, librarian, reports fewer books and
pamphlets accessioned this year, but work in cataloging and
558 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
has continued A re -checking of the Ithaca imprint section by
Miss Leland added some 17 items never before listed
In the genealogical section, Mrs William A Smith has
been handicapped by illness this year but her work continues
Of special interest is the growing number of Revolutionary
War soldiers who resided in the county : a verified list is now
approaching 300 A developing project by Mrs Smith is the
collection and verification of men who served in the War of
1812
Work in the maps and atlas department continues to be
the forte of Emmons Leland This embraces repair, sorting
and cataloging the Museum's collection of maps and atlases
For the first time, thanks to his efforts, this material may
now be located quickly by reference to an index, and found in
usuable condition.
Besides handling 602 pieces of first-class mail, accessing
and labeling all items that have come in collections, Mrs
Wayne Bliss, office secfetary, has found time to index nearly
3,000 clippings This indexing continues, but with the in-
creased office activity too little time remains for processing
the vast backlog of clippings that have accumulated over the
years
Each member of the staff feels that the work being done
is eminently worthwhile and a growing public response sup-
ports their conclusion Each is struggling to improve the
efficiency of the Museum that the new public may be better
served in its search for a broader historical knowledge of the
county

ANNUAL REPORT DISTRICT ATTORNEY 1958
Board of Supervisors
County of Tompkins
Gentlemen :
I hereby submit my report as District Attorney for the
year commencing January 1, 1958 and ending December 31,
1958
There have been three sessions of the Grand Jury.
Terms Indictments
March 35
May 3
November 16
Total Indictments 54
These indictments include all defendants indicted whether
separately or together with others. There were also six cases
considered in addition in which no indictments were returned
These fifty-four indictments have been disposed of as
follows :
Guilty pleas 42
Jury trials 4
Pending 7
Dismissed 1
The indictment against Jack Coleman was withdrawn as
the defendant was sentenced in Chemung County for similar
charge
The following Jury trials were held in this County and the
following is a summary of these trials
People V John Haywood—Defendant plead guilty during
progress of trial
People V Howard Fuller—Found guilty of Petit Larceny
and not guilty of Forgery
Tompkins County, New York 567
People V James Myers—Found guilty of Petit Larceny.
People V Donald King—Found guilty of First Degree Rob-
bery
First Degree Grand Larceny and Second Degree As-
sault
In addition to the above trial work the District Attorney's
office necessarily as part of their duty participated in the
following Justice Court cases :
Our office appeared in 25 cases and conducted 5 jury trials
the results of which were as follows :
Found guilty 2
Not guilty 3
We have also worked out a program as follows :
A number of boys and girls between the ages of 16 and 19
are eligible for youthful offender treatment under the Penal
Law If a person is eligible for this treatment by having no
previous felony convictions and being of good character, he or
she can be adjudicated a youthful offender and they are not
guilty of any crime and it does not become a part of their re-
cord although the court may commit them to an institution or
put them on probation We ordinarily do this in the Grand
Jury if the charge is a felony However, this raises certain
difficulties due to the long lapse of time between Grand Juries
and often a boy or girl will have to sit in jail, as they have no
bail or no place to go from the time of their arrest until the
Grand Jury meets, which may be as long as three months. I
believe along with other law enforcement officers and the
Probation Department, that these persons should be given
immediate treatment, as they are more impressed with it and
it is better for them to have something to do instead of sitting
around the county jail and being a burden on the county.
Therefore, in proper cases I have reduced the charges with
the consent of the persons involved, to a misdemeanor there-
by allowing the Justice Court to find the defendant guilty of
being a youthful offender The Justice Court would have no
jurisdiction unless the charge was a misdemeanor and not a
felony. Strangely enough whether the original charge is a
felony or a misdemeanor, if the boy or girl is treated as a
youthful offender they are liable to the same treatment
568 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
regardless of the original charge We have found this to work
very well toward disposing of cases involving the young
people of this county I personally believe that it has gone a
long way towards cutting down on the juvenile delinquency
problem Once the gangs find out that their cases will be
handled strictly, yet without delay, they are more impressed
with the level of law enforcement
The Magistrates' Association of Tompkins County is still
active and Frederick Hartsock is the new president of the
Association
This office participated in and conducted five inquests This
included several in which a full scale hearing was given in-
volving in one instance, nineteen witnesses
A number of appeals were filed in our office, a great number
of which are pending due to the pressure of other work here-
inafter commented on. The appeal in People V James Cald-
well resulted in the judgment of conviction being affirmed.
This was a case in which Judge Hartsock had accepted a plea
of guilty to driving while intoxicated by a young man and the
defendant had claimed that he did not fully understand his
rights The Court indicated that the Justice had done a good
job in setting forth his rights and sustained the position of
our office.
An appeal was pending last year in the Appellate Division
in People V. Richard Sundquist, Lewis Lupo and Robert
Schmidt. The conviction of all three of these defendants, being
the Beebe Lake Case, was affirmed and Sundquist and Lupo
were committed to the Reception Center at Elmira.
A further appeal is now pending in the Appelate Division,
being People V Michael David This case was argued before
the Appellate Division and the decision has not been handed
down to date
On November 15, 1958, the City Police of the City of Ithaca
made eight arrests for various gambling charges These were
all misdemeanors and presented to the City Court of the City
of Ithaca It has long been the policy of this office and the
office of City Prosecutor that all gambling charges be han-
dled by the District Attorney's Office, due to the widespread
nature and possible implications of such charges. I appeared
i
Tompkins County, New York 569
as District Attorney in cooperation with Virgil Ruegsegger,
City Prosecutor, and due to the position of City Court in de-
manding immediate trial of the Michael David case, before
preparation by my office and due also to the general impor-
tance of the cases, I moved under Section 59 of the Code of
Criminal Procedure to take the cases before the Grand Jury
These motions were made just one week before the trial
term commenced in County Court where a number of very im-
portant criminal cases were pending My motion to take the
cases to the Grand Jury was denied by Judge Casey of City
Court and I made application to Hon Louis K Thaler for
relief Judge Thaler handed down a decision saying that it
was proper that the cases go before the Grand Jury. This de-
cision was appealed to the Appellate Division and is the ap-
peal above mentioned The appeal concerns only the Michael
David case, however, so that an application was made by this
office to take the other seven cases to the Grand Jury This
application was approved and an order was made by Hon
Joseph P Molinari to that effect ordering that the Grand
Jury be reconvened on January 19, 1959 All of these cases
will be handled in 1959
In the case of People V William Patana involving a homi-
cide, being a son shooting his father, this office appeared in
hearings in Children's Court and conducted the hearing on the
part of the People of the State of New York, and William
Patana was found guilty of being a juvenile delinquent pur-
suant to law and due to his age and put on probation Sub-
sequently, he violated his probation in the State of Texas,
was returned to this county and was committed to the Re-
ception Center at Elmira, New York.
The following is of interest to show the number of cases pre-
sented during the last ten years :
Year Indictments
1958 54
1957 39
1956 25
1955 25

570 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
It will be noted that the cases have more than doubled since
1953 The salary in 1953 wa's $2950 The present salary scale
is $3500, being an increase of $550 This is not in line with
the increase in duties.
The salary increase in the last ten years show that there
has been an increase of $350 every three years except in 1956
the salary was only increased $200
Throughout the United States as well as the State of New
York, there is increasing emphasis on effective and efficient
law enforcement There is a much greater demand for scien-
tific evidence, for the use of crime laboratories, for the use of
blood tests, finger prints, photographs, etc There is also a
greater demand for increased police training The demand for
increased service is also felt in the courts with the present
court re -organization bills which will have a profound effect
on the criminal law and on the demands on the District At-
torney, if the justice of peace courts are eliminated and dis-
trict judges are substituted All of this is felt in our office
and in other district attorneys' offices throughout the State
of New York, in that salaries have been raised, staff has been
increased and a greater number of indictments are returned
in each county This county does need an assistant district
attorney in order to adequately handle justice court cases
However, before the office of assistant district attorney is
established, there should be a pay raise granted to the district
attorney To take on an assistant without a pay raise to this
office would be unfair, in that it would only increase in some
aspects the responsibilities involved Based on the amount of
time involved, the responsibility involved and comparable sal-
aries of district attorneys in other counties, this office should
pay the sum of $6500 00 per year as fair compensation
No increase has been given to the secretary connected with
the office of district attorney, although there have been in-
creases in the past, and more work assigned to her based on
increasing paper work, increased meetings, indictments. etc
A $200, increase for 1960 is recommended

ANNUAL REPORT OF COUNTY ATTORNEY
1958
To the Board of Supervisors of Tompkins County:
Instead of the usual report covering the affairs of the Legal
Department for the past year, I have decided that this is an
appropriate time for me to review briefly the more important
events which have occurred at the Court House during the
twenty-five years that I have been in office
As you know, counties in New York State have taken on
many new functions The running of county government was
a simple matter in the depression years of the thirties and I
am sure you will agree that it is not so simple in these days
Your County Attorney serves in an advisory capacity to all
the departments of the county government and because of
this, he has a vantage point and a better opportunity to ob-
serve the business of the county as a whole than does the head
of any other department, or the changing personnel of the
Board of Supervisors In order not to bore you with too long
a report, I shall confine my remarks to the highlights of each
of the five five year periods since my first appointment
1934-1938
In 1934, Joseph Myers was Chairman of the Board and
William 0 Smiley, Clerk Harvey Stevenson was on the Board
for the first time, and this was the year that the office of
County Attorney was established Among the other officers
were County Judge, Willard M Kent, District Attorney,
Arthur Adams , County Clerk, Howard O'Daniel , County
Treasurer, Charlotte Bush and Superintendent of Highways,
Bert Vann The Sheriff was Frank Ellis', Welfare Commis-
sioner, Fred Williams; Election Commissioners, Emma L
Card and William F George, and James R Robinson was
our Assemblyman.
We had an association called the Tompkins County Devel-
opment Association with a paid director The idea was to
modernize the county and make it a model for other counties
with everything spic and span, the way it should be The same
year, at the instance of Supervisor Robert C Osborn, the com-
pensation for supervisors was changed from a fee basis to a
572 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
salary The County Laboratory was in operation with a Board
of Managers and Dr Baron Hauenstein as Director He was
succeeded in 1938 by Dr Henry Ferris
In 1935 we revised the rules of the Board for the first time
since 1913 You will find in the proceedings for that year, a
history of the county and a list of all members of the Board
of Supervisors from the time the county was formed in 1817
to 1935 At the time the present Court House was built in
1932, we conveyed the old Court House to the Baptist Church
We bought it back from them in 1935 for $8,500 00 That was
the year of the big flood which many of you will remember
The County bridge at Myers was swept away with the loss
of four lives and actions were brought against the County for
$40,000 00 on a claim that the bridge was not properly con-
structed and maintained Fortunately, the result was no cause
of action in all four actions.
1939-1943
During the five years from 1939 to 1943 Lamont C Snow
was Chairman of the Board, Roscoe C. Van Marter replaced
Fred Williams as Welfare Commissioner and W Glenn Norris
became County Clerk Daniel Patterson and Ray Van Orman
were Election Commissioners Harrison Adams was Sheriff
and Stanley Shaw our Assemblyman
In 1939 over twenty-nine actions were brought against the
county by citizens of Ithaca for refunds on the ground that
they had been taxed twice for old age assistance The city had
its own old age assistance department and the county was
charging its old age assistance to the whole county, including
the City of Ithaca The only defense was that the city had not
legally set up its old age assistance The Mayor had voted to
make the majority The Charter said he had no right to vote
except in case of a tie and there was no tie The Court of
Appeals, disregarding the fact that the city action was illegal,
felt that it was not equitable for the city taxpayers to help pay
for old age assistance in the towns Immediately after this de-
cision was received, I drafted special legislation for tax re-
funds with a limited time for claims to be presented A tax re-
fund bureau was set up under the direction of David Moore of
Danby In all, 4,343 claims were handled and the cost to the
county was approximately $60,000 , all of which was charged
to the towns outside the city.
Tompkins County, New York 573
In 1940 under an act of the Legislature passed that year,
the county began annual tax foreclosure proceedings This
county was one of the first to adopt this procedure When
tax hens are four years old, we foreclose on all the properties
which the county had purchased at tax sale The old tax deeds
were always subject to attack, but now the purchaser gets a
good title through a judgment of the County Court
In the war years we formed a Tompkins County War Coun-
cil and appropriated funds for its office, for the rationing
board, for the civilian protection office and for the mainte-
nance of warning posts This War Council was the predecessor
of the present office of Civil Defense.
In 1941 I brought an action in Supreme Court for the
county for the review of a determination by the State Depart-
ment of Welfare to extend old age assistance to inmates of
private fraternal homes Our contention was that a person
who was cared for in a home like the Odd Fellows Home, was
not a person in need of public assistance because the corpora-
tion which managed the home had a 'sufficient endowment to
care for its members The Court of Appeals ruled otherwise
and this case became a precedent throughout the state for
the granting of old age assistance to persons in private homes.
1944-1948
In 1944 Donald Stobbs was Chairman of the Board In 1945,
Clifford Hall became Sheriff In 1946 Norman Stagg took
office as County Judge and Surrogate At about the same
time, Gladys Buckingham was appointed Clerk of the Board
In 1946 Donald Stobbs became County Treasurer and LePine
Stone took over as Chairman of the Board
In 1944 the Soil Conservation District was established and
in 1946 came the County Health District and the Blood Bank
Dr William Spring was the first Health Commissioner
In March of 1947, the County took over all Welfare activ-
ities from the nine towns Also in that year, we had our first
radio communication system and the Board voted to take over
the Quarry Street hospital from the Tompkins County Me-
morial Hospital Corporation and to operate it beginning Jan-
uary 1, 1948 as a public general hospital A Board of Man-
agers was appointed and you all know what a grand job has
574 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
been done by the Board and its successors Irene Oliver was
the first hospital administrator, and she was succeeded in
1953 by R. 0. Daughety
The first case brought by the Watchtower Bible and Tract
Society for tax exemption was tried in 1947 and successfully
defended You will recall that the evidence in that case showed
a large number of sales of farm produce and poultry and the
decision of the court was based partly on this fact A similar
case was tried in 1956-7 with a favorable decision by, the Ref-
eree which is being appealed
The 1946 proceedings of the Board listed the names of the
Supervisors from 1936 to 1946 and the 1948 proceedings pub-
lished the revised rules of the Board which were adopted in
that year Incidentally, it was not until 1944 that the Board
began numbering its resolutions and giving them each a title
1949-1953
Ray Ashbery became our Assemblyman on January 1, 1949 ,
LePine Stone died in 1950 and was succeeded as Chairman of
the Board by Harvey Stevenson who has been in that position
ever since In 1951, Welfare Commissioner Roscoe Van Marter
died and John H Post was appointed to succeed him after
having served a short time as Election Commissioner In the
same year Superintendent Bert Vann died and John Miller be-
came the new Superintendent of Highways Grace E Baker
succeeded John Post as Election Commissioner Dr Robert
Broad became Health Commissioner
Soon after the county began operating the hospital, it em-
ployed hospital consultants from New York and they came
in with a recommendation in 1949 that a new hospital should
be constructed on a new site This was not satisfactory to the
Board of Supervisors, the report was rejected and a Citizens
Committee headed by William J Foster was appointed to con
sider all phases of hospital expansion In 1952 this Citizens
Committee rendered its report recommending an addition to
the existing hospital on Quarry Street This was approved
and Messrs Eggers and Higgins, New York architects were
employed to plan the addition
As of January 1, 1949 the Welfare Department of the City
of Ithaca was abolished and the county took over all of its
functions including old age assistance
Tompkins County, New York 575
In 1949 the Fire Advisory Board was first established and
approved, and in 1950 the Mental Health Clinic was inaugur-
ated and sponsored by the Board with the understanding that
no public funds would be required for its operation In 1953,
Dr George E Poucher became its Director In 1950, in coop-
eration with the mayor of the City of Ithaca, a consolidated
office of Civil Defense was established and early in 1951,
Ralph Hospital was appointed as the first Director of Civil
Defense
In 1952 the Peruville highway was reconstructed after a
condemnation , proceeding to obtain the necessary rights of
way
1954-1958
On January 1, 1954, Howard Harvey took the office of
Sheriff, which office he still holds In June 1954 Viola Booth-
royd became Election Commissioner In December 1954, the
Board authorized the appointment of an Assistant County At-
torney and Robert I Williamson was appointed commencing
his duties in January 1955 On January 1, 1957, Roger B
Sovocool took the office of District Attorney upon retirement
from that office of District Attorney Fred Bryant The Wel-
far Commissioner John H Post died in December 1957 and
the following month the present Commissioner, Myron L
Evans was appointed to the office A motion was made that
the matter of having the Welfare Commissioner appointed in-
stead of being elected was referred to the Legislative Commit-
tee, but an election took place in the Fall of 1958 and Mr
Evans goes in on January 1, 1959 for the balance of the term
In 1957 the Probation Office was reorganized and Willis
White became Director In 1958 Dr William Lanyon succeed-
ed Dr Ferris as Director of the County Laboratory.
In 1955, appraisals of all properties in the nine towns were
made by Doane Agricultural Service, Inc This resulted in a
much more equitable distribution of equalization rates than
was formerly the case and in my mind, was very much worth-
while The final report showed a total valuation by Doane in
the nine towns of $116,317,071
In 1956, a bombshell was dropped on the county when the
State Commissioner of Health, Herman Hilleboe, proposed the
discontinuance of the Hermann M Biggs Memorial Hospital
576 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
as a tuberculosis hospital and the transfer of the land, build-
ings and equipment from the State of New York to the county
The Board of Supervisors, upon recommendation of the Board
of Managers of the hospital, immediately approved an ac-
ceptance of this proposal and through the efforts of the State
Health Department, our Assemblyman and Senator, Dr Nor-
man Moore and others, Chapter 109 of the Laws of 1956 made
this dream come true Soon after the law was passed, the
contract with Messrs Eggers and Higgins for an addition to
the Quarry Street hospital was terminated and Sherwood
Holt of Ithaca was employed as architect for the renovation
of the Biggs property As you all know, the renovation was
completed this year and the new hospital was dedicated on
September 27, 1958 The Quarry Street hospital lands and
buildings were sold to Ithaca College for $152,000
In the Summer of 1956, the Board voted to purchase from
Cornell University the airport on East Hill for the sum. of
$324,387 including some of the buildings Robert Green-
wood was the first Airport Manager succeeded in 1958 by
Glenn A Turner I believe the primary reason for this pur-
chase was the knowledge that if the airport were publicly
owned, we could get substantial aid from the Federal govern-
ment for its improvement, and also fifty per cent of the pur-
chase price Another factor which contributed to the affirma-
tive vote was the representation to the Board that if the
county took over the airport, Mokawk Airlines would keep
its headquarters in Ithaca With this in mind, the Board ap-
proved a proposal to build a headquarters building at the air-
port at a cost of $2,000,000 00 with the expectation that it
would be paid for over a period of years by Mohawk Airlines
Contrary to our expectations, Mohawk Airlines, Inc decided
to move its headquarters to Utica, and the Board is still fulfil-
ling its part of the bargain by going ahead with major im-
provements to the runways
The other major event in the past five years was the agita-
tion for a sales tax Three separate committees investigated
the subject, one headed by Supervisor Edward Walpole, one
by Supervisor E J Miller, Jr and the last one by Supervisor
John Lounsbery All of them did a lot of work, and all the
members of the Board were subjected to a great deal of pres-
sure The measure was finally defeated in March 1958 by a
vote of 9 to 7.
In 1955 a controversy with the City over the 1954 equaliza-
Tompkins County, New York 577
tion was settled by an agreement that the town should be
taxed to pay the City $20,000 over a five year period In the
same year, a county Board of Review was established under
the Multiple Residence Law and the Board turned down an
opportunity given by the Legislature to set up a Commissioner
of Jurors under the Uniform Jury Law despite the advice of
the County Attorney that this change was highly desirable
for many reasons
In 1956 the County purchased the Fahey property at 310
North Tioga Street and this building now houses the office
of Social Security and Civil Defense In 1956 also, the Board
adopted a new Workmen's Compensation plan with detailed
regulations made possible by an amendment of the law.
In 1957 the Board rules were again revised, but the new
rules were not published in the proceedings In that year also,
a Local law creating the County Tax Department and author-
izing the appointment of a tax consultant was adopted and
Thomas Payne was appointed The same year the Board ap-
proved the payment of Social Security to all employees with
certain exceptions, and the system of permanent personal reg-
istration was enacted by local law.
I cannot close this report without a tribute to some of the
men whose long years of service on this Board during my
terms of office and whose loyalty and devotion to the public
interest have contributed much to the efficiency of county
government Leaving out present company, whose eulogies
will come at a later date, I am thinking particularly of Lamont
Snow from Caroline, who was on the Board for 20 years and
chairman for 8 years; LePine Stone from Ulysses, who was
on the Board for 17 years and chairman for 41/2 years ; Charles
Scofield from Lansing, Charles Downey from Dryden and
John Lounsbery from Caroline What these men accomplished
will be found in the proceedings of the Board I could not do
them justice by summarizing it here. Suffice it to say that
any history of this period would not be complete without tak-
ing cognizance of what they have done for the people of Tomp-
kins County I hasten to add that by mentioning their names
I do not mean to minimize the contributions and accomplish-
ments of many others who have served the people most val-
iantly while in office on this Board To name them all would
unduly prolong this report
578 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
As I said in my letter of resignation I appreciate very much
the cooperation that has been given me all these years by the
Supervisors, the department heads, and all the employees I
leave the Court House with some pangs of regret, but with
full confidence that the county is in good hands, and that my
successor will have the same support and encouragement that
you have given me, and that he will enjoy the work as much
as I have enjoyed it.
Respectfully submitted,

586 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
The year 1958 was marked by five distinct developments
affecting Civil Defense on a nation wide basis.
1 The merging of the Federal Civil Defense Administra-
tion and the Office of Defense Mobilization into the
newly created Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization
which office comes directly under the President of the
United States This reorganizational measure passed
Congress and this merger of the two agencies took
place on July 1st 1958
2 The passage by the Congress of HR 7576 modernized
the Federal Civil Defense Act of 1950 and authorized
the expenditure of Federal Funds on a Matching Fund
basis for administrative and personnel costs on the
local level.
3 The completion and issue of a National Civil Defense
Plan.
4 The completion and issue of a New York State Civil
Defense Plan
5 The completion and issue of a Binghamton Target
City -Support Area Plan
In addition to the above a Civil Defense Staff College for
all directors and selected members of their staffs was, con-
ducted at West Point, New York November 19 to 24 This was
a most valuable instructional course conducted by the New
York State Civil Defense Commission.

588 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
d On November 21st 1958 an announcement was made by the
U S Air Force, that, effective January 31st 1959, all
Ground Observer Corps operations would cease This step
was justified because of the improvement in automatic de-
tecting devices which assure warning of the approach of
enemy aircraft regardless of the altitude at which such air-
craft may fly in approaching our national boundaries

RECOMMENDATIONS
It is urgently recommended that the Tompkins County
Board of Supervisors provide funds for the purchase and in-
stallation of at least one efficient air raid warning device of
adequate power to be heard by the densely populated area of
the City of Ithaca and contiguous areas in the Town of Ithaca.
By the expenditures from county funds of about $1500 such
a device could be obtained and the savings of thousands of
lives in an emergency may be affected.
Recommendations similar to the above have been made
over a period of years

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE
COMMISSIONER OF WELFARE
To Chairman Harvey Stevenson and Members of the
Board of Supervisors:
The year 1958 proved to be one of increasing costs caused
by a rise in the general price level which included higher
rents, food, hospital and nursing home care for the chron-
ically ill
On August 5, 1958 we received from the State a revised
schedule for food, clothing, personal incidentals and house-
hold supplies which was an increase of 3 9% and averaged
approximately $1 00 per month for each person on assistance
On January 1, 1958 our fully inclusive hospital ward rate was
$19 48 This was increased to $21 60 on July 1, 1958.
Our monthly nursing home rate was increased $10 00
on January 1, 1958, making the nursing home charge $160 00
per month, plus medical costs for each patient Medical
and hospital costs are of increasing concern to the Welfare
Department We find the number of OAA recipients de-
creasing and the cost per case increasing
Medical and hospital costs in 1958 were as follows :
Medical $ 60,860.79
Drugs 36,939 26
Dental 9,741.45
Hospital care 81,681 81
Total $189,223 31
On the above hospital bill $71,121 21 was paid in 1958 and
the balance was paid in January 1959, $1900 being from
1958 encumbered funds and $8,660 60 being from the 1959
budget
County Home: Reimbursement on the 'Tompkins County
Home was withdrawn as of December 1, 1958. Mr Henry
C. Thorne, architect, has been employed to draw plans for
improvements to meet more stringent regulations of the
State Board of Social Welfare
600 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors

in the County Home The cash sale of animal and vegetable
products was $5,925 55 and the value of the products used
in the Home was $5,450.94, making a total of $11,376 49. In
addition, $5,839 62 was collect& for board The State Inspec-
tor of county farms stated tha the farm showed good man-
agement.
Resources: As of January 1, 1958 there were 46 properties
deeded to the Department and during the year 6 were sold,
leaving 40 deeded to the Welfare Department as of Decem-
ber 31, 1958 In ,addition to deeds, we have 8 mortgages—

These resource activities are under the direction of Lester
Mattocks Under this program the resources of all applicants
are investigated This includes bank deposits, life insurance,
stocks and bonds, social security and veterans' entitlements,
as well as any equity in real estate A careful periodic check
is made on estates recorded in Surrogate Court In this man-
ner, we are sometimes able to collect from estates of former
recipients of public assistance and also from former and
present recipients who become legatees in estates of relatives
The State Department report on the Tompkins County
caseload complimented the Department_on the handling of
all financial resources
In addition to handling the resources, Mr Mattocks has
had charge of the surplus food distribution This program for
eligible families in the county started in October 1956 and has
gradually increased This program is under the control of the
New York Division of Standards and Purchase in Albany
with applications for and certification of eligibility made by
the local welfare agency As of January 1, 1958 there were a
total of 680 families in the county receiving this surplus food
with a total of 2,746 individuals Of this number, 376 families,
comprising 1,454 people, were active public assistance recipi-
ents Thirteen retail grocery stores in the county assist in this
program by distributing the food during a five day period
each month
Child Welfare Divist.on: The protective aspect of the
Child Welfare Program has been evidenced frequently during
the past year The Social Welfare Law places responsibility on
Tompkins County, New York 603
the Public Welfare District for "the protection of children
residing or found in its territory "
Children whom the Children's Court considers abandoned
or neglected are awarded temporary custody to the Welfare
Department When necessary, these children are placed with
foster parents until conditions in their own homes can be im-
proved
We have a group of cooperative, intelligent foster parents
who act as an extension of the staff and who are doing a most
creditable piece of work in the care development of the chil-
dren All possible effort is made by the Child Welfare staff to
re-educate the parents so that the children can be returned
to their own homes.
We are making special efforts with our age group of 16-
18, both boys and girls, to get them to look ahead objectively
to their future plans of life After school and weekend jobs
are encouraged and we are trying to reach a definite decision
by the time each child is 16 as to whether or not he should
continue in school If he can make use of further education, we
will assist him If he cannot, we believe that it is better for
him to face individual responsibility and to be self-supporting
t In brief, we are making greater effort than ever before to in-
' dividualize each child and see that he gets the help and stimu-
lus that he needs to learn to stand on his own feet
We find the volume of work in 1958 to be about equal to
1957 163 children were under care on 12/31/57 compared
t with 162 on 12/31/58 During 1958, 54 children were ad -
I mitted to care and 55 were discharged.
During 1958 we paid for 35,840 days care in boarding
homes and 7,969 days care in institutions

Statistics from the New York State Department of Social
Welfare show that Home Relief rolls in New York State for
December '58 were up 12% from November 58 and 39 8%
from December '57 The corresponding rise in upstate is
24 6% and 71 3%
In January 1958 we had 111 Home Relief cases, made up
of 398 individuals who received some assistance. We had 31
applications and denied 7.
i
Tompkins County, New York 605
In December 1958 we had 46 applications for Home Relief
and denied 7 During the month assistance was granted to
185 Home Relief cases, made up of 538 individuals Although
during the summer months we closed more Home Relief cases
than we opened, the number of cases and individuals remained
larger than for previous years
The Home Relief category is the only one that gives
assistance to a family where the need is caused by the un-
employment of the wage earner. While this category is un-
popular with the public, we do find it necessary to grant assist-
ance in whole, or supplemental, to other income, such as un-
employment insurance In order to close a Home Relief case,
we must show sufficient resources or available employment to
meet a welfare standard for the family
During 1958 we have become aware of many increasing
costs to the Welfare Department other than increased case-
loads We note that in many cases where welfare families
have to move it is necessary to approve a higher rental figure
and in practically no cases can cheaper rentals be secured
Very often the quality of housing available makes for high
heating costs This problem was especially noticeable during
the first part of 1958
Our policy regarding the wage earner in a Home Relief
family, a deserting parent in an Aid to Dependent Children
grant, or to the parents of children under the foster care pro-
gram is the same If our information shows anyone unem-
ployed who is able to work and not seeking employment or
working and not supporting his dependent children according
to his ability, we make a referral to the County Attorney and
also file a complaint in Children's Court
One serious problem of the Tompkins County Welfare
Department is to maintain a properly trained staff. Due to
low salaries and high educational requirements, we are only
able to maintain required number of employees by hiring
people who will be in Tompkins County only for a short time
Careful consideration should be given to arrangement
and amount of office space used by the Welfare Department.
The main problem with the present office is that the employees
are too close together and there is not adequate provision for
deadening sound and for ventilation
606 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
I wish to take this opportunity to thank the Board of
- Supervisors for their cooperation during the past year
We again urge each individual supervisor to come to our
office at any time to discuss with the department head and the
case worker in his district the case load and problems relating
to that district

REPORT OF THE TOMPKINS COUNTY LABORATORY
FOR THE YEAR -1958
During the course of 1958 the Tompkins County Labora-
tory moved to new quarters in the former Biggs Hospital
site and completed operation of transfer there in October
At about the same time Dr. H W Ferris retired as, Director
of Laboratory and was replaced by Dr W. L Lanyon In
addition, Mrs Jean Smiley retired as Senior Laboratory
Technician, after years of faithful service
As will be seen by the attached annual report, there was a
decrease in the amount of work done in the Public Health
Laboratory due to elimination of performance of the Comple-
ment Fixation test, which is now done only at Albany on
positives picked up by our screening technique There also
has been a gradual decrease in surgical specimens for ex-
amination during the 'last three years
Public Health work is running along at about the same
level as for the past three years, compensating for decreases
above There are considerable increases in hematology, urin-
alysis and miscellaneous examinations
A comparison of the annual reports for the past three years
is appended
Revenue for the Last three years is as follows
1956 $32,436 00
1957 $35,310 50
1958 $35,339 50

The Probation Department has been able to follow through
in some of the programs outlined in the 1957 Annual Report
One of the Probation Officers was able to take advantage
of the training program offered by the State Emphasis
must still be placed on orientation, however, with the addi-
tion of a new Officer following the resignation of Mr Kent
to continue his schooling
1
A weekly consultation service by Dr Komor of the Men-
tal Hygiene Clinic is proving extremely helpful in under-
standing and working with difficult behavior
The department has continued to work on the extension
of Probation service to all the courts in the county In this
respect our staff has spoken before the Magistrates Associ-
ation on two occasions and a booklet has also been prepared
to guide the many Justice Courts in utilizing the service we
have to offer
We continue 1 to have a strong conviction that we must
play a more positive role in preventive work More emphasis
is being placed ;on attempting to make adjustments in family
problems prior to an actual court appearance Another aspect
is a program of group therapy for teenage probationers that
the department, will soon initiate under the guidance and
direction of the Mental Hygiene Clinic
A serious problem is the supervision of female probation-
ers Under General Rules, Rule VI, it states that no female
probationer shall be placed under the direct supervision of a
male probation officer During 1957 and 1958 there were a
total of 23 female probationers under supervision as well
as 3 juvenile girls on informal probation At the present time
there are 9 female probationers and 3 additional cases await-
ing disposition During the past year there have been approx-
imately 7 families contact the probation department for
guidance with their teenage daughters Supervision of female
probationers by a male officer contains many explosive quali-
ties Wherever possible the aid of some private agency is
enlisted but this arrangement makes probation supervision
very difficult, and more important, is often extremely confus-
ing to the probationer herself A woman Probation Officer
could likewise be effective in many areas of probation work
such as intake, investigations, support and marital problems,
614 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors
etc We would certainly urge the Board of Supervisors to give
the matter their careful consideration
