Though it is entitled, to a-fair "re-turn
on Us investment, he main-tained
the company should provide
adequate service before it is grant-ed
such a. return. He insisted, how-ever,
these were not arguments for
a rate increase but- simply a fair
statement of the facts.
Mayor Ryan also spoke of park-
Ing facilities adjacent to stations
and declared this was not a prob-lem
to be solved by the villages,
but .that the, towns, counties and
state should share in the respon-sibility
of providing them. "It is
more than a local matter," he said.
He thanked... the members of the
association for their assistance in
conducting a train check up when
requested to do so by the commis-sion.

JAKE KEDENBURG . . . "Mr. Sports'- . . . This 195-pourid sports
enthusiast, who tops siv feet, is ageless. This is due to the fact that
sports is his vocation and advocation. Yet Jake is fifty-two years old.
His participation in sports dates back to his boyhood days in Brooklyn
when he was active in all sports, including boxing^. Jake Kedenburg
looks like a tough man, and he is
a tough man, but only in his sincere
interest to promote sporting events,
particularly automobile r a c i n g .
Those who know htm call him
."Honest Jake." His drivers and
employees swear by him, and his
name has become legion wherever
the racing fraternity meet.

A resident of Freeport for ap-proximately
2i) years, this nation-a
l l y famous racing personality has
b u i l t the Kedenburg Racing Asso-c
i a t i o n i n t o an organisation which
look all honors above all ' other
tracks in the couniry. His bi-week-ly
nieeis, Tuesday and Fridays, at
Uie FREKPORT STADIUM, have
put our Village in the lime-light in
this respect by attracting on an
average ol' 16,000 fans a week. In
addition to the Freeport track, Mr.
Kedenburg is also responsible lor
the approximately 10,000 attend-ance
at his Wednesday and Satur-day

installation of ofli-night
by Surrogate-
Leone D. Howell. It was the most
largely attended induction in the
long history of the club.
Following the installation, Judge
Howell delivered a stirring address
on the serious condition of the
country, pointing out that heavy
federal expenditures were making
It difficult for lower governmental
units, especially counties, towns,
cities and villages to meet their
objections.
The speaker said the government
was taking the cream off the top,
as £0 percent of all earnings were
being tgken out in taxes to meet-federal
expenditures. He spoke of
the 'need of addltonal schools and
other local projects-and added ''but
because of the burden we are
undergoing is going to be tremend-ously
increased, there are going to
be a lot of things you're going to
get along without." ..
Too Many, Committments •
Referring to the "promises'of aid
to other countries;; he expressed
fear America was making too many
-committments, and said eventually
a halt would have to be called or
. "we're going * to reach the time
when wp can't-help either ourselves
_ar_Lhe._oLher fellow."
. Next Judge Howell took up the
promises1 made by the Democrats
during the last presidential cam-paign
and of the "mandates", for
expenditures the administration
felt were involved In the victory.
"Before they get through," he add-ed,
"many of these things are going
by the board, and that before long."
Re criticized the powers that
be f&vputting up with conditions In
Berlin, remarking "If we had said
to Stalin, 'we have a right In Berlin
and we're coming through,' it would
have been In the true American
character. Instead we backed
down." ri*e spoke of the cost of
the "air - lift" for Berlin which
might have been avoided had this
•step been taken.
