MONDAY. OCTOBER 24, 1960 Rapp (Continued from page 1) business, which gives him a good background for the of fice of county treasurer. For the past five years Chet has been serving the public, which gives him experience in working with the people with whom he should come into contact. Progressive Growth Chet feels that the rapid and progressive growth of Jackson county requires young, alert and aggressive man, able to cope with the problems and questions that arise; and that a fresh ap proach is needed in the coun ty fiscal matters. He believes that by utilizing new ideas and working with treasurers of other counties, the office can be run more efficiently and economically with better service to the public. Having worked with the public Chet realizes the im portance of cooperation and courteous service. He would definitely work in close co operation with the other coun ty offices and tax receiving units of Jackson county. The same courteous service would be given everyone whenever they needed his services in working out problems and helping to prepare budgets. Chet certainly does believe that the office of county treasurer is definitely a full time position. He would de vote to the office his full time and attention, Chet would spend time in the office so that he would be available to whoever might need his serv ices. He feels that to run the office efficiently and econom ically requires full time. Chet believes the salary justifies the treasurer to devote his full time and attention to the of fice. Wise Investment Chet is much in favor of a wise investment of county funds, which will net the most for the taxpayer. He believes that by properly utilizing the returns of the investments there can be a slight reduc tion in taxes. As county treasurer Chet would do everything in his power to prevent our O and C. funds from being distribut ed to other counties in the state. You might ask, "What can the County Treasurer do?" He can exert his influ ence as a member of the State Treasurers' association, There is much more td the office than merely' keeping the- books. Chet believes that he must be available to all the districts at any time as well as attending meetings for the welfare of our county. - Chefs attention definitely would be focused in the direc tion of efficiency and economy in" the handling of county funds.

He has in. creased interest earnings by investments of funds that were not in immediate need for payment of the exDenses of the county government and other taxing units. Interest Collections As Of June 30 this vsar. in. tcrest collections for the AV, years he has been in office add up to $330,000.00 - over $102,000.00 of this amount was allocated to other taxing units than the countv eovern- ment. This is new money and represents a tax savings to the taxpayers. Durine his term of office he has been able to furnish con siderable financial assistance to taxing units in the prepara of budgets and tax estimates, drawing up of specifications for new bond issues and so on. Each year the county budg et committee requests the county treasurer to make ac curate estimates of cash re ceipts and balances on hand for the coming year which serve as a basis for making out the new budget. These estimates are important for formulating the county gov ernment program and enable the county budget committee to determine amount of con tributions available for other taxing units for reduction of taxes. ' Limited space prevents a complete statement of his ac complishments and services. He is pleased with expressions of complete satisfaction by of ficials of most taxing units with whom he deals. Duties of Treasurer The duties of the county treasurer are not generally known by the public. These are indicated in the state civil service report on its study of Jackson county offices. The report states that the county treasurer must have: (1) Thorough knowledge of state laws and county ordi nances and regulations gov erning operations of the coun ty treasurer's office. (2) Considerable knowledge of investment and bonding procedures. (3) Working knowledge of banking practices and in keeping bank, cash and relat ed fiscal records. (4) Working knowledge of modern office practices, pro cedures and equipment. (5) Working knowledge of accounting principles and practices and the basic prin ciples of municipal financial operations. (6) And ability to maintain cooperative working relations with other employees and the general public. These specifications for the county treasurer result from a scientific study of several weeks by an independent agency which is experienced and highly qualified to make such an analysis of Jackson county treasurer position. They should be carefully con s 1 d e r e d for determining which candidate best fills the bill and if this is done, the voters may decide to vote for Karl Janouch for county trea surer because he is the candi date who has the necessary knowledge and ability to suc cessfully fill the position. - Karl Janouch Candidate for County Treasurer News About Servicemen ENLIST Three area men recently enlisted in the Navy at Port land.

Nixon Demands Kennedy Correct Brother's Story Aboard Nixon Trail -(UPI) - Vice President Richard M. Nixon assailed Sen. John F. Kennedy with mounting an ger today on everything from a "lying" brother to personal wealth. The Republican presiden tial candidate through his press secretary, brought the issue of religion squarely to the forefront of the campaign by demanding that his Demo cratic opponent "publicly rep rimand his brother Robert F. Kennedy, for "lies" about al leged Republican distribution of anti-Catholic literature. Kennedy is a Roman Catho lic. The vice president, cam paigning stormily across Pennsylvania in a series of railroad whistlestops, taunted Kennedy for his family wealth, saying the Democrat had espoused a platform which would cost the Amer ican people $15 bilion annual ly in additional federal expenditures- "a whale of a lot of money - even . . .to a Ken nedy. Sends Kennedy Telegram And in a continuing fight over the best approach to Fi del Castro's Cuba, the GOP standard-bearer accused Ken nedy of switching policy un der guise of claiming to have been misquoted. "This is another case of your speaking first and think ing afterwards," Nixon said in a telegram to Kennedy over their projected fifth TV debate, "a habit which is a very dangerous one for a man who is asking the American people to elect him as commander-in-chief of all the armed forces of this nation." The Democratic candidate's brother Sunday in Washing ton said Republican organiza tions in San Diego, Calif., and other points in the country were "issuing anti-Catholic literature and doing it quite openly." The vice president's press secretary, Herbert G. Klein, denounced the younger Ken nedy's statements as untrue.

Kennedy, hittin gpocketbook issues, said today the GOP can "count on Vice President Richard Nixon to lead its wrecking crew" on Social Se curity improvements like medical aid to aged. Kennedy told an enthusi astic Rockford, 111., audience that "it is time the vice pres ident came back to Illinois and started to look after his fences because I think Illi nois will go Democratic on November 8." He came here at the start of a two-day stumping tour in this key midwest state. He told Rockford Democrats: "I believe Mr. Nixon has led that Republican wrecking crew - not merely been a member of it." Savon Point Program The Democratic presidential nominee, although concerned about the religious issue in the midwest, planned to talk about issues affecting individ uals economically in the mid west area. He offered a seven point program to advance welfare for the elderly. It included his congression- ally defeated proposal for placing medical aid under the Social Security payments sys tem; increases In regular So cial Security payments to match higher living costs; re training and other steps to advance job opportunities for older workers; and lower cost housing for the aged. His plan also would in crease retirement benefits for each additional year of work after 65 and boost the $1,200 a year ceiling on what a work er may earn while drawing Social Security, step up med ical research on health prob lems of the aged and improve rehabilitation and training of physically and mentally han dicapped persons.
