Changing the Zoning Laws
N TUESDAY, a sub-comjniUee of the New Castle Housing
Commission called on the Planning Committee and presented
a petition asking for more leniency regarding the Zoning Laws.
As a result, the Planning Commission has promised to recommend
to the Town Board that some changes be made in the existing Code.
A town meeting will have to be called first. That it will be lively,
thers is no doubt. There will be the advocates for multiple dwellings,
and the old-timers who do not want the character of their town
changed.
We side with both. We do not want Chappaqua to be a hideous
suburb with apartment houses and cheap jerry-built dwellings"without
any ground. However, we can see no reason for not using already
existing buildings as two family houses to help ease the emergency.
Such buildings would not alter the outward appearance of the com­
munity. This has also occurred to the Planning Commission. And
they have agreed, if the Town Board is willing, to set up a Board
of Appeals to hear each individual case on its own merits. They
have also inserted a clause that .would limit such converting to three
>ears, a period when it is felt the present emergency would be greatly
eased
We congratulate the Planning Committee for their cooperation
and forethought m trying to meet the needs of the homeless, while,
at the same time, preserving to the utmost the character and charm
of this old Quaker village.
O
No Bids
T WILL be a great disappointment to the town to hear that there
IParkway
were no bids when the contract for completing the Saw Mill River
to Katonah was advertised
This completion would divert much of the traffic that now passes
down the Bedford Road and would in so doing, eliminate much of the
danger that now exists on that perilous highway.
No reason has been given for this silence on the part of contrac­
tors but one suspects that either the sum to be paid for the job
w-as too low. or the men were afraid to undertake any further project
with labor conditions as they are and production at a standstill.
Even Chappaqua is feeling the repercussions of inefficiency in Wash­
ington But be patient, fellow citizens, this won't go on forever and
the coming elections may bring us back to normal. We hope so.

V
OTERS will have the opportunity of listening to their representa­
tive. Ralph A. Gamble and John T Flynn, journalist and author,
when these two men come to Chappaqua to speak on Oct. 29 at a
meeting sponsored by the New Castle Republican Club
It has been predicted that it will be a lively meeting with time
Allowed for questions, we hope, and a chance to understand the
working of the Republican Party by two such qualified adherents to
its principles
The Fall elections are ever before us The most intelligent
approach is to be as well informed as possible on the matters which
are of such vital importance to the future of the country.
Remember the date, Oct. 29. Keep it open.
The Fire Department
T
HIS week the members of the three Chappaqua fire companies
will call on the residents of Chappaqua for their donations. Every
year the firemen make this appeal and every year the people of
New Castle respond whole-heartedly.
Everyone loves to see the fire engines go by, it is a natural urge
for every small boy to want to grow up to be a fireman Some of
them do, and what fun they have, riding the engines, setting up the
ladders and parading in their smart uniforms
But there is a far more serious side to the matter The safety
of the community really lies in their capable hands and much praise
is due to the Chiefs who have inspired such enthusiasm in their men
and have adhered to a high type of excellence in supervising their
equipment and drills
Chappaqua can well he proud of its Fire Department. If you
are a resident of New Castle, remember that these men are all
volunteers and that the safety of your homes lies largely in their
ability to do their work swiftly and efficiently should fire break out.
Show them that you appreciate their efforts by contributing generously
to their cause.

Urges Tax Aid
For Veterans
White Plains.—Tax income re­
lief for GI Joe Is proposed by
Morris Karnes, Port C h e s t e r ,
Democratic-ALP c a n d i d a te for
Congress in the 28th Congressional
District, in a statement issued to­
day outlining his legislative pro­
gram at Washington should he be
elected in November.
"As a veteran, I know well what
the veteran needs and therefore
am proposing a plan to equalize
veterans' income taxes," says the
candidate. "My plan is simple,
fair and just. This is how it
works:
"In addition to present exemp­
tions, a veteran shall be given an
extra income tax exemption of
$1,500 per year on earned income
—this exemption to continue for
as many years as he or she spent
in service.
"This does not mean any special
hand-out. I t means that a vet­
eran will save t h e taxes on $1,500
per year to help him catch up
financially with the rest of his
community who continued to earn
money while he was away in ser­
vice."
A table accompanying the can­
didate's statement shows that
under his plan a veteran, unmar­
ried and with no dependents,
would save on a $1,800 amount of
earnings $215, ranging up to sav­
ings of $263 on earnings of $3,000,
and $313 on earnings of $5,000."

Steers 'ON The Lam', And That's
No Joke, Son!
Special to the New Castle Tribune
Lean Pickings, Texas, Oct. 9.—
Your reporter flew down here last
week, and in an exclusive inter­
view with reprVentative Texas
steers learned that this time the
steers mean business. Up till this
hour there were no indications of
any meeting between the steers
and Texas cattlemen. The steers
locked horns at a three day ses­
sion outside of Fort Worth, and
voted to walk out at Wednesday
mid-night. Not a single steer,
Long Horn, Short Horn, or even
hornless has entered the local
corrals since the zero hour.
"They're all up in the hills," a
spokesman for the steers told me
yesterday, "and they'll stay there
as long as these cattlemen stay
so bull headed."
With Texas corn and wheat still
plentiful, singing cowboys here
will be adding empty corrals to
their empty saddle refrain. The
steers are well stocked with fod­
der, and in a long fight ranchmen
and American meat eaters a t
large are going to be eating soy
bean derivatives until their eyes
go slanty.
The cattlemen have had the full
thirty days to weigh the steers'
complaints, but at walk-out time
they had made no overtures to
the rebellious cattle. Here are
some of the most salient issues
raised by the striking steers:
1. Better traveling conditions
enroute to slaughter houses. The
term "Cattle car" has for all cat­
tle the same opprobrious meaning
as the term "sweat shop" has for
all garment workers.
2. A longer grazing and feeding
season, and a sharply curtailed
slaughtering season.
3. An end to the reprehensible
practice of "salting" the cattle,
wherein it is sought to waterlog
yiem, thus adding spurious weight
for market.
4. A more' equitable distribution
of pensions for steers, instead of
the indiscriminate shipping of
over-aged steers to second-hand
restaurants.
5. Insistence that restauranteurs
be compelled to list the meat com­
ponents of their hash. Texas steers
are vehemently opposed to being
ground with inferior breeds.
6. The size and shape, as well as
the vulgar name 'Hot Dog" is
nothing but a travesty on the red
blooded Texas steer.
There you have it. The steers
felt> that they had a beef coming,
and they made it. It's as simple
as that. I've seen nary a conniving
Republican down here shooing the
cattle away from market with a
red blanket. And as far as I have
been able to ascertain, cattle rais­
ers haven't sent the beef under­
ground to send the prices skyways
Mayors and Governors can keep
right on writing telegrams and
harassing Harry to their constitu
ent's delight for all the good it is
going to do them. There's nothing
worse than a stubborn steer unless
it's a discontented cow. Take it
from this observer, if you hope to
have meat again while you still
have all your choppers, you better

and talk nice to those sit-down
sirloins. •
Stamps
By EMILE CHAUDRUE
With the air mail postage rate
at five cents an ounce in the
United States and territories, a
temporary innovation is being
tested to handle the expected in­
creased volume. The "flying mail
car" will be put into service by
the Post Office Department and
the airlines to stimulate and pub­
licize the greater use of air mail
and to determine the results of
sorting mail in flight.
The United States Air Forces
has loaned to United Air Lines a
Fairchild twin-engine Packet and
the American Airlines will use a
DC-4, which will be fitted with
sorting boxes and mail-bag racks
like the interior of a railway mail
car. Transcontinental Western
Air, also used a DC-4 as a "flying
post office" to handle the firstday covers of the new five-cent
a i r mail between Washington,
Dayton and Chicago and back to
New York.
None of these three aircraft*
used for these special flights will
continue operation as winged mail
cars, .although the Post Office De­
partment indicates a hope to have
such equipment in regula" service
on the domestic airlines before the
end of the year. At present, air
mail simply receives a rough sort­
ing at the post office of origin
and is tossed into bags addressed
to the nearest cities at which air­
lines carrying mail makes sched­
uled stops. All the sorting for
municipal delivery zones, suburban
areas, off airline cities and out­
lying towns has to ba-done after
the flight is over at a post office.
If this work could be accom­
plished on airplanes in flight, as
it is aboard railway mail cars, a
tremendous speed-up in air mail
deliveries would result.
The problems of weight and
space involved in the carrying of
four mail clerks present difficul­
ties in greater proportion than
those in fhe case of the railway
mail car. These clerks, with bag­
gage, would represent a weight of
200 pounds each, which the air­
lines would carry for the Post
Office Department and at the de­
partment's expense.
