When the present Taxlcab Ordinance was adopted, the zone and fare sections were omitted for future action to permit a further study of the details. Since then conferences have been held .with the taxlcab operators, with a view to seeing they received fair treatment as well as th6 travel- ing public* Mr. Glaoken said it costs 14.3 cents a mile to operate a cab, without baking the pay of the driver into consideration. This, lie added, was due to the high cost of accident insurance, compensation, gasoline and expenses in general. The proposed ordinance provides for dividing the village Into seven zones, with f^xed fares and an over- hang area north and south of the railroad tracks In the.center of the village. This extends from Randall ave., on the north to West Merrick road on the south, and from Long Beach ave., on the west to Henry St., and Harding pi., on the east. Taxicab passengers desiring to enter this area from any zone north or south of the tracks would pay an additional 15. cents, but those traveling from any zone north or . ot the railroad right of way Cord . \Pop Viebrock\; its been \Pop\ to the thousands of school children and residents of Freeport since 1933 when he started his Ice cream-lunch^ eonette on So; Main at., It's qtUl \Pop\ now that he's Village Trustee; and it would continue to be \Pop Viebrock\ regardless what high position *he would hold In the communi- ty. He's that kind of .a man! * * * ' I could quote Mr. Vlebrock/on his feellnga about Freeport, the Village of his adoption; the Vil- lage In which he experienced his greatest happ!ness-=-ln which he found sincere friends, and where he found democracy at work, but that would be unnecessary. Those who know Cord Viebrock have recognized all of Oils. His con- scientious service as a member of the Village Planning Board ('46- '48), the Zoning Board of Appeals ('48), and the Village Board of Trustees; his record of participa- tion and achievement m the Itler- cbants* Association, Chamber of Commerce (Past Pros. '46-'48) and in the various charitable, civic, and war bond programs during the war, speaks for Itself. His con- tribution to charity Is foremost. Bu^t still In humble modesty, he Insists that full credit should be given to $ne many others who co- operated In all the projects. *4 * + Mr. Viebrock values highly many things that the native born American take for granted. He left Germany In 1909, a boy of fourteen, coming to the United States to seek his fortune and to become a'part of this great country. He found true democracy here; equal rights, equal opportunity, tolerance, understanding, and appreciation. He became a top to&l of thei'f area for ea*a& zone transversed. • .<r - Areas Includede In Zones The zone areas would be bounded as follows: Zone A, taking in the North end of the village from the Roosevelt line would start in the south at West Seaman ave, at the Baldwin boundary, run along Seaman gve., to Pennsylvania, then north to Oraig ave., along Oralg ave., and Stevens St., .to Union st., south & to Independence then east to the Freeport-Merrlok line. The fare from this zone to the station for one or two persons would be 50 cents. Zone B, would lie immediately south of one A, with the railroad right of way at Its southern boun- dary, and the fareokWould be 35 cents for each passenger. Zone C, would extend from the railroad tracks to Atlantic ave., in the south except for a jog to the west running along Sigmond St., to Elliott pi., south to Southside ave., thence through Locust ct., to At- lantic ave., along which the line would run east and then swing south to include Buffalo and Al- . bany aves. The fare for this zone would be 35 cents for each passenger. Zones In Southern Section Zone t) would include the jog cut out of Zone C, run along Florence »«»+ M ^TMHtAnd asm , south to Melster blvd.,. east to South Bayvlew ave., south to Bryant st., then crossing Randall Bay diagon- ( Continued on Page 4) Salvation Ahny Drive Set for May; $6,500:Goal ' Plan* for the 1900 campaign of theJBreeport Salvation Army Oqrps were mad* at a meeting of Ithe Monday, Bight Sohl for 'CMrh Jn 600* The drive wrlll be atarted with a kAok^bif diner pn Monday night, May I/; (mdicpxx&nue /through the OMmQi.

Doxsee and other village offici- al*. The Freeport Bank made the second best offer—?1;50 percent Interest rate and $87.00 pre- mium. ^ Five other bids were received as follows: George B^ Gibbons & Co., and Charles E* Weigold & Co., Inc., 1.50 percent and S70.10 premium; American Trust Co., 1.50 percent and $51.24; HaH & Co., 1.60 percent and $44; Bacon & Stevenson, 1.60 per- cent and $266; and R. H. John- son & Co., 1.75. percent and $163.56. Large Vote Expected To Show Confidence In Dnity Party Sl&*e Smith and Viebrock Running Unopposed; In Tuesday's Election Only 31 persons registered to par- ticipate in Tuesday's village election When the opportunity was afforded them Saturday due to the fact that there is only one ticket in the field and there is no doubt as to the outcome of the election. However, Saving $^,000 Other Source* $47*000 All Tax Note* Paid Off Freeport ended the fiscal year on Feb. 28 with a balance In 'the muni- cipal treasury of $93,000 after pay- Ing off tax notea and other obliga- tion?, some of which might have been deferred until 1951, Village Treasurer Stephen W. Hunt reveal- ed in his annual report Issued this week. This healthy financial condition was brought about by the fact that receipts from sources other than taxation, exceeded the* figures set up when the 1843-50 budget was adopted by $123,000, and budgetary expenditures were $46,000 less than the appropriations alloted .the vari- ous municipal departments. From the $123,000 Item, the Vil- lage Fathers paid off $76,000 In tax anticipation notes, Including those due for the purchase of parking meters, the Incinerator, the pump- ing stations for the sewer system serving .the southern section of the village, parking fields, etc., so the municipality enters the new fiscal year without a cent in tax notes due on the books. After doing all this, there still was a surplus of $47,000 from the rece&pta from sources other than taxation,, which added to the $46,000 budgetary balance, make the total $93,000 which will be used to reduce the 1950-51 budget anA consequpnt- ohly book learning he ever *u&& Wad aa **«oa*mt»*y eawo&t&wi &*& i but In the school of life he la eligible for the h&gheat degrcea.

Home Rule Maintained Mr. Ryan insisted that home rule would be maintained if the granting hands of the supervisors. He told in details of the findings of the commission. He said 23,000 per- Isons were riding Into the city every morning while only 5,300 were rid- ing in buses.
