tax break year earlier than expected
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A
legislative sleight-of·hand will bring
most Ohio hc:rneowners a $30 million
break in property taxes a year
earlier than most state officials and
General Assembly members were
figuring .
The 1212 percent break, which is
for Ollloans who live in their own
homes, has taken mo st state
officials and legislators by surprise.
The new provisioo was quietly
inserted into a bill to make state
employee pay raises retroactive to
July 1. The short paragraph on taxes
made the tax brea~ for 1980 instead
of 1961.

Budget Director William D. Keip
said he didn't know anything about
the change until several weeks after
the bill was approved in July. He
said the money will be available for
the tax break, even though the
state's budget is very tight. He said
he is not sure the General Assembly
will have to appropiate money for
the tax breaks .
State
Tax
Equalization
Commissioner Robert Kinney said
he wasn't aware of the tax break
until a few days ago. He said, on the
surface, the pay bill didn't apply to
his office, and he also said he had
been on vacation .
Many Republicans and Senate

President Oliver Ocasek think the
tax breaks are illegal because they
apply only to residential property,
but other legislative advisers say
they is not.
County auditors are hWTying to
get together applications and figure,
ways to alter their tax duplicates
before they must be cc:rnpleted in
mid-November. Many auditors
doubt that the necessary changes
can be made so that homeowners
can take advantage of the breaks on
the first tax bills mailed out next
year .
However, the General Assembly
will probably approve a plan which
will allow hc:rneowners to make up

Israeli-Syrian warplanes
battling ·in Beirut skies
BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP)- Israeli
and Syrian warplanes battled in the
skies south of Beirut today, and two
to four Syrian jets were reported
shot down . It was Ule seeond
dogfight between the old enemies in
four days.
Lebanese government sources
said two Syrian fighters crashed in
flames near Beirut International
Airport but their pilots parachuted
to safety.
An Israeli military command
spokesman in Tel Aviv said four
Syrian planes were downed and all
Israeli aircraft returned safely to
base.
Associated Press reporter
Mohanuned Salam said he saw a
large explosion near the airport
when he was di'iving to wOrk.
"There was a big orange fiash and
a big explosion and then smoke," he
said.

The air clash came at a time when
the United States and other
countries are growing increasingly
critical of lsr aeli military acUons in
neighboring Lebanon. But Israel
vows to continue its policy of
striking at Palestinian guerrilla
bases in southern Lebanon.
Syria's Damascus Radio said last
Thursday that Syrian jets had
engaged and driven off · Israeli
aircraft flying over southern
Lebanon. Israeli newspapers said
Ule Syrians used air-to-air missiles
in that encounter.
Syrian and Israeli jets clashed for
the first tirne in five years last June
'l:l, when the Israeli air force used its
U.S.-made F-15 fighter for the first
time in combat. The Israelis
claimed they brought down five
Syrian MiG-2ls in Ulat battle over
southern Lebanon .

GM mum on electric car ·
DETROIT (AP) - The General
Motors Corp. may have made a
breakthrough in car bat ~ery
technology, but the giant automaker
is keeping mum about reports that a
practical electric car is in Ule offing.
Company spokesman Cliff Merriot
said GM president Elliott M. ·Estes
would ''make some announcement"
in Washington on Tuesday. But he
wouldn't say whether .it concerned a
copyright report in Sunday's
Chicago Tribune quoting a "highranking executive" on the
breakthrough in developing a longlife zinc-nickle oxide battery.
Estes has Said repeatedly Ulat
General Motors e1pects to market
an electric car by the late 1960s,
probably for around-town use at
first .
To be practical, GM says, such a
car would have to be able to carry
two passengers and about 100
pounds of baggage for 100 miles at a
cruising speed of 50 mph . The car expected to be about the size of a
Chevrolet Chevette - would also
have to reach 30 mph in less Ulan 10
seconds and to be able to cover about

Under current legislation,
homeowners must apply for the tax
oceak by Sept. 30. But a bill now
pending in the Senate Finance
Committee has been amended to
change the filing deadline to Dec. 30.
The bill is a measure to
reappropriate $261.5 million that has
not been spent for capital

years . If needed , the General
Assembly could appropiate the
money for the tax break in that bill.
Applications must be made

but Mexican officials say they
will probably try again today to
place a huge steel cone over the

"It is raining, cloudy and there
are very strong ocean currents.
We have some operations that
must be done with divers which
we cannot po5Sibly do now
because of the currents," Rafael
Marque!, a spokesman for the
government oil monopoly ,
PEMEX, sald Monday.
"We will probably continue
tomorrow, " he said. On Sunday,
diven lowered the 35-foot by 65foot steel cone to the test well's
platform, 190-feet underwater.
But Marquet said darkness
prevented them from positioning
the 310-lon device to catch the oil.

Energy costs causing
consumer price hikes
( AP) Higher energy costa
continued to surge through the
economy .in August, pushing
consumer prices up 1.1 percent, Ule
govenunent said today.
The sharp rise was the eighth
consecutive monthly increase near
or above 1 percent, the Labor
Department said. And it OC&lt;'IUTed
despite a leveling-off in food prices,
which showed no change in August.
U there is no break in the price
pattern, the nation will end the year
with an inflation rate above 13
·percent - the worst since World
War II, econc:rnlsts said.
The Labor Department today also
introduced Its new energy report,
which gives monthly price statistics
oo gasoline , fuel oil and other energy
C081s.The report showed the impact
on families of the 60 percent rise in
cr'ude oil prices enacted by the
Organization
of
Petroleum
Exporting Countries since the start
of the year.
Aruong the statistics: - The
average price of fuel oil was 110 cents
per gallon, . tip 25 . ~ cents since
December 1978.
In another report , the .ljabor
Department said Americans'
average weekly earnings were badly

eroded by inflatioo in August, falling
0.6 percent in the mooth. Spendable
earnings, which are weekly earnings
after Social Security · and federal
taxesare deducted and adjustments
are made for inflation , fell 0.9
percent In August, the third
consecutive monthly decline.
The Carter administration has
been hoping for a turnaround in
Inflation before the end of the year ..
But Labor Department economist
Patrick Jackman said signs of Ulat
turnaroWld are not yet visible in the
Consumer Price Index.
The report said "about two-thirds
of the (August) increase was due to
higher energy and hc:rne ownership
prices.''

Transportatloo prices were up 1 . ~
percent for the month, with most of
the rise blamed on a 4 percent surge
in ga!klline prices. PubUc transit
C081s also rose .
"In the 12 months ended in August,
gasoline prices increased 46 .1
percent," the report said.
Housing costs allkl reflect higher
fuel costs, wiiJl a 7.1 percent August
rise in fuel oil costs (56.4 percent for
the year ) pushing the oost ahead
rapidly.

Energy legislation

WASHINGTON (AP) - The
Senate session began routinely
enough . The bell rang and Sen. Bill
Bradley rapped for order. The
¢aplain recited a brief prayer.
Some parliamentary business was
disposed of and then the chamber
feU uncharacteristically silent.
"La de da do," sang Majority
L!ader Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va.
Silence is rarely heard in the
Senate. Song is even rarer.
But Byrd is a singer and fiddler of
some renown and he had time to kill.
He turned to his Republican
counterpart, Sen. Howard H. Baker
Jr. of Termessee.
"I would like to hear the
distinguished minority leader
expound on some subject," said
Byrd. "Just any subject."
"I heard the majority leader
expounding in lyrical tones a
moment ago for the edification of
the gallery, but since we have
already passed that high point in the
proceedings of the Senate today , I
find myself speechless," replied
Baker.
"When the distinguished minority
leader is speechless, one notices a
great silence fail over this chamber
like a cloud," sald Byrd.
The problem was Sen. Harry F.
Byrd Jr., the independent from
Virginia. He was late,. He had
reserved 15 minutes to denounce
federal spending and growing
national debt .
"La de da do," sang the majority
leader, once again.
"I must say this may be a historic

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A new
law extending and increasing the
state's winter heating subsidies can
help more elderly and disabled
Ohioans cope with infla\ion, Gov .
James A. Rhodes says.
"It is the best energy assistance
law in the nation," Rhodes said
Monday after signing the legislation
into law.
The program will provide $92
million foc heating and winterizing
the homes of poor Ohioans over the
corning two years and places the
state's 2-yearo{)ld energy credits
program into permanent law.
"This bill helps a little bit with
inflation, whicl&gt; is the number one
enemy of senior citizens," Rhodes
said.
All but $18 million contained in the
law will be spent to subsidize the
heating costs of persons over age 64
or those of any age who are totally
and permanently disabled.
"Retirement years should be a
worry -free time of life, but our
current inflation is eroding the value
of retirement incomes, for cing

~

senior citizens to make brutal
choices between being warm in the
winter and other necessities of life,"
-Rhodes said.
Rep. Dennis Eckart, D-Euclid,
authored the law, which provides $9
million to supplement a federal
program to winterize the homes of
poor persons and another $9 million
to assist persons on low incomes who
f.a'ce utility cutoffs.
The law expands the energy
credits program to include heads of
households earning up to $9,000. The
previous maximum income level
was $7,420.
"This wiU make upwards of 60,000
additional persons able \!&gt;
~~Brticipate in the program," Rhodes
said. "There were approximately
290,000 person s in the program last
year."
The state will subsidize winter
heating bills by 30 percent for .the
elderly or disabled who earn under
$5,000. Persons earning $5,()00.$9,000
can receive a 25 perce nt subsidy for
bills from November through
March .
Qualified Ohioans whose he~ting
costs are included in rent I'I'Yments
or who use fuel other than electricity

Business mirror
PM-Buslness Mirror
NEW YORK (AP) - Sen. Edward
M. Kennedy's suggestion that he
might seek the Democractic
nomination if the economy failed to
improve quickly is tantamount to
saying that without a miracle he'll
be in the race.
Unemployment, ooe of the key
measures of public attitudes, is
rising again. The rate of inflation
remains near 13 percent; even if it
begins to recede by yearend, as
many predict, it might not be soon
enough.
Interest rates too are on a similar
course. A scattering of analysts now
declare the turnabout may be near,
but even they do not foresee a
decline much below doublEKilgit
rates until mid-198() at the earliest.
These indicators - jobs, prices
and interest rates.- are among the
best understood economic signals,
measuring not abstract monetary or
fiscal activities, but events that
immediately affect' pocketbooks.
But voters weigh abstractions too.
Perhaps not one in 100 understands
the technical sophistications of
monetary policy, but they know the
dollar has fallen internationally and
that it means weakness .
There are clearcut reminders of
this everywhere. There ii'no secret,
for example, behind the price rise in
various published products from
fine prints to old comic books. They
are in limited supply. Dollars,
meanwhile, speed off the printing
presses in unlimited quantities.
Buying power has fallen , or barely
held its own, through most months
this year. Paychecks grow, but the
bag of groceries doesn't. And money
that is saved shrinks instead of

grows, as in theory it should.
Studies show that for the first time
in the lives of many Americans they
do not expect the future to be better.
Even during the Great Depression of
the 1930s, It is claime&lt;!, Americans
held to fhe notion.
Problems such as these provoked
Business Week magazine recenUy to
declare that Kennedy's qualification
- that the economy improve
substantially - is "a clear demand
that Jimmy Carter walk on water ."
Even if the econr:my improves, it
may be painful. Most economists
seem to think that as interest rates
fall , and price increases dinninish,
the unemployment rate, now at 6
percent, will rise by at least a point.
With the civilian labor forced now
exceeding 100 million, an increase of
just ·ooe percentage point would
mean ooe million moce idle workers.
Some econr:mists focesee this as the
minimum impact of a slowdown .
Whether the economy continues
toward greater inflatloo and higher
interest rates, or a slowing of prtces

dir~d an $88 biJlion crash program
to produce 2.5 mUllon barrels per
day worth of synthetic fuels and
other substitutes for imported oU by
1990.
But the president was oblivious to
the universal wa~, voiced by
sources as disparate as en. vironmentalists and oU lildu.stry
executives, that synfuel production
is a complex, unproven technology
fraught with uncertainty.
Three independent consulting firms conunlssioned by the Senate
Budget Commission to study the
alternatives aU concluded that the
administration's plan to coJlltruct u
many as 30 to 40 plants as rapidly u
possible was an ill-«dvised approach.
The three Seilate committees considering the legislation all opted for
a more cautious two-phase program
specifying initial construction of 6 to
12 pilot plants to test various
technologies during the early and
mid-19805 before proceeding with a
massive production program.
As recently as the first week of
September, however, the White
House remained adamant. "We feel
that production goals are terribly
important," said a typically inflexible administration official. "It's terrij)ly important to get started
right now."
But when members of the Senate
confronted Carter on the issue less
than a week later, the !X'eaidem
abandoned his initial, ill&lt;anceived
approach.
Another key element of Carter's
original energy package suffered .
the same fate at the same While
House meeting. At issue '11'811 the
scope of the powers exercised by an ·
Energy Mobilization Board
proposed by the president.
'
As originally described by Carter,
the board would have "the responsibility and authority to cut through
the red tape, the delays and the en- .
dless roadblocks to completing key
energy projects."
The authority to expedite selected
projects. on a '1ast track" was
specifically understood to extend •
only to procedural matters.
Yet White House lobbyists failed
to oppose legislation that would also
authorize preemption of substantive
laws, prompting tl)ree leading Carter appointees to express their concerns in a personal memo to the
president.
Carter again backed down, after
even stronger complainta were
voiced both by tho!\e concerned
about environmental degradation
and by mayor.~ and governors fearful that . the federal govenunenl
would summarily override state and
local laws.
·The energy package· now has a
better chance of success on Capitol
Hill. But like virtually ail of carter's
earlier legislative successes ·- including bills to overhaul the civil
service system and tighten ethical •
standards for government officialsthe final version will bear litUe
resemblance to the . proposals
originally drafted by the White

Rose of the Philadelphia Phillies
became the first player in major
league history to gel 200 hits in 10
different seasons when he singled to
right-center field with two out in the
second inning against the St . Louis
Cardinals Monday night.
Rose's 200th hit, on an ~1 pitch

managed four or more 200-hit
seasons and only seven have done it
more than six times.
Cobb had nine, and Lou Gehrig •.
Wee Willie Keeler and Paul Waner
had eight each. Olarlie Gehringer
and Rogers Hornsby had seven 200hit campaigns.
Rose's first 200-bit year was in
1965 with the Cincinnati Reds . He
reached that plateau again in 1966,
1968, 1969, 1970, 1973, 1975, 1976 and
1977.
Cobb reached 200 for the first time
in 1907 with the Detroit Tigers and
did it foc the ninth time in 1924, also
with Detroit.
Rose 's hit also extended his
current hitting streak to 22 games,
tops in the major leagues this year.
SeatUe's Dan Meyer and Texas'
John Grubb shared the previous
high of 21 with Rose .
Rose had a ~arne hitting streak

HAY FEVER

(AlLERGIES I
QUESTION : What are the signs
which indicate a person has hay
fever?
ANSWER : First ,' we must
recognize that hay fever, which
physicians refer to as illlergic
"rhinitis, " is merely one way in
which allergies show up. When a
person is allergic to something in the
environment, he or she may break
out in a rash (allergic asthma ) or
have stomach or bowel discomfort
(gastrointestinal allergy ).
The symptoms of hay lever are a
. runny nose , itching and tearing
r eyes, sneezing and stuffy fullness in
the nose. II you have a family
hisUlry of allergies and these symplorru! occur during an allergy
' season, you should be suspicious.
QUESTION: What are the usual
i times of the year when hay fever is
i most common?
~
ANSWER: The allergy season lor
; inhalant or pollen allergies such as
; trees, grass or ragweed depends
• upon the area of the country in which
· you happen to live. In the Midwest ,
the typical allergy season extends
from Aprid to sometime in October,
In Texas, the allergy season may be,
pre:Jent all year long except in midwinter. However, if you reside in a
tropical region such as Florida, the
season may extend the entire year.
QUESTION : Is is possible to have
hay fever aU year long?
ANSWER: Whenever a person
lives in a tropical region it is
poBSible to have hay fever 12 montrn
of the year. When the allergy symptoms occur in an area of the Midwest
we must think of some other
problem or consider an allergic
agent such as molds, house dust,
feathers or animal dander whi ch can
be present all year long . Foods can
also be responsible for causing
allergy problems, but we usually
assOciate food allergy to skin rashes
or stomach difficulties.
There Is another medical condition which doctors refer to as
''vasomotor rhin itis." This is a
problem which has the same S)' i!P·

toms as hay lever but is not caused
by allergies. The cause of this
malady is an extreme sensitivity of
the nasal passages to irritants in the
environment such as smoke , dust,
pollutants or even changes in the
weather. Emotional upset can also
trigger an attack of vasomotor
rhinitis, and this condition can coexist with U1e irritants as a combined enemy . Many cases which
have been previously diagnosed as
recurrent sinus attacks of frequent
colds 'can probably be labeled as
vasomotor rhinitis.
Many times babies and younger
~hildren have allergies which persist throughout the year because of
frequent contact with offending
agents ~uch as stuffed toys , family
pets, feather pillows and mattr~es , wool blankets, and of course
thetr co~on food, milk. ~aus.e
the child s reaction to various
allergens changes as he or she grows
older, pediatricians often wish to
remove the offending agents rather
than medicate or give allergy shots.
Of course, finding the offending
allergen and removing it from the
person's environment is always the
preferred method of treatment for
all allergy sufferers. This will be
discussed in next week's column.

County Auditors ASsociation of Ohio,
said in a letter w county auditors.
The auditors' group sCheduled a
meeting for late morning to discuss
the implementation problems.
Many state and local officials
were taken by · surprise by the
rollback. They knew it would be
coming, rut they expected it to' be
applied to 1900 taxes and they
weren't prepared with the proper
application forms, said Gorry.
• Tracy said co\]IIty auditors would
like to see the rollback extended and
the filing procedure eliminated.
"We want it (the rollback) to
apply across the ooard to residential
and agricultural property," Tracy
said.
'Among the properties exCluded
from the rollback are rental oomes
and apartments, homes owned by
persons other than those in
residence, .homes owned by
corporations, homes in buildings
used primarily for non-residential
purposes and oouse trailers, Tracy
said.
Those homeowners who pay their
property taxes through their bank or
savings and loan association as part.·
of their mortgage payments should
speak to their lending institutions to
find out how the savings will be
recorded on their mortgage bills,
Gorry said.

For those who do file with their
county auditors in time, tlje savings
will be tack~O percent
property U.x rollback that has been
in effect for several years,
according to James Gorry, atwrney
for the state Department of Tax
Equalization. The break to a person
owning a home with a $DO,OOO market
value would be about $1~ for the
year, he said.
The tntal savings In homeowners
statewide has been estimated In be
abo\lt $30 million.
The deadline provision was
slipped into law via a short
paragraph in a state employee pay
raise bill.
"The way it stands at this minute,
I have 240,000 potential applicants
who have to file in my office by
midnight Friday," Franklin County
Auditnr Roger Tracy said Monday.
"The phone has been ringing off the
hook."
He said he thinks that abOut onethird of the persons qualified for the
rollback will never hear about it and
not file for it. Property owners must
actually Jive in the dwelling in order
In qualify for the reduction.
The law "will play havoc with our
offices and we must correct this
situation immediately," Robert J.

pay our teachers a higher salary on
one hand and not be able tO on the
other. With that in mind, wbat can
we do? Well, there's litUe l'eft for the
board to do but w take specific
action to deal with the situation as
best it can.
Therefore, utilizing the money lost
by our non-working professional
staff ana our non-working certified
staff, we have hired a security guard
for each of our buildings to help all
those kids, teachers and parents who
wish to come w school during this
crisis. At the same· time the board
has passed a resolution to increase
the pay of substitute teachers to $li2
a day and the going rate for all noncertified substitutes in any capadty
including bus drivers will be
established at the regular rate of
pay now paid our employes.
"The protection of all of our
people, including the people
picketing our schools, is of utmost
importance to us. You, as parents,
can help by calling your child's
teacher and urging the return to
school and by calling the
superintendent's office if you are
willing tn work in any capacity.
'·At this time we are in the process
of trying to arrange another meeting
with the teachers association to
discuss the unresolved matters and
In see if they have made any
concessions on their salary
demands.
"We sincerely hope we can resolve
our differences as soon as possible."
This morning, Mrs. Fisher,
president of the Meigs Local
Teachers Association, issued ·the
following report:
"Monday, there were 19 students
in the sChools, no buses running, few
non-certified personnel in the
buildino and seven teachers
crossed !he picket lines.
"The association urges parents to
keep their children home as there is
no meaninful education taking place
in the schools. In light . of this
situation the Meigs Local Teachers
Assn . urges the Board of Education
wclose the schools unW matters are
resolved .
"The hiring of security guards Is
the most horrendous strike·
breaking, anti-union tactic ever
brought to Meigs Dlunty. The
teachers association wonders why
the bol!l'd capnot meet our requests
rut have, the money to spend on
security guards at fl an hour and an
out of town attorney at flO an hour.
"The Federal Mediator, Bill
lewis, stated that he would set up a
meeting as soon as he could contact
Mr . Gleason. The association is
waiting for a call conflnnlng this
meeting". ·
A special meeting of the board
scheduled for Monday night was not
held and there have been no
negotiations since the strike began

children will not have their
educations interrupted due to local
money shortages.
Sen. Oakley C. Collins, R·lrontnn ,
said the measure has been needed
"for many yeru s. Ohio 's school
closings have been a disgrace . They
have given the state a black eye, and
caused Ohio to be held in ridicule
aroood the nation."
Earlier this year, the legislature
approved another new law
permitting school districts wsubmit
to voters a temporary local income
tax, of up to 1 percent, w repay
loans.
Previously, they had been limited
to local property tax revenues which
have been losing favor among voters
around the state over the past
decade .
Roberto said his committee added
language to the House proposal
under which school districts could
better withstand possible delays in
state subsidies later this year as P

result of a state cash flow problem.
The administration of Gov. James '
A. Rhodes at one point mentioned
giving the schools only 45 percent of
their 1979-1980 subsidies in the first
six months of the July !.June 30 state
fiscal year , and 55 percent in the
second six months.
More recently, the governor has
said he thinks the schools can
receive their subsidies on schedule,
with other state obligations held
temporarily in abeyance.
However, Roberto's committee
provided that if school payments are
delayed, districts may borrow ui&gt; to
the amount withheld and take WJW
July I, 1980, w repay.
Current law says school districts
may . borrow within one calendar
year only such amounts which they
can by the Dec. 31 end of the same
calendar year.
Public schools received top
priority last July when the
legislature enacted the state's 19791981 budget bill.
