Mrs. Schu- <br />man said if all the money from forestry was put into the loan program, that <br />would still sel:Ve only a few more families. Mr. Ollerxlorff agreed. Mayor <br />Majerus added that if a citizen applying for a loan has an acute emergency, <br />the City will work with the County a:rrl do its best to alleviate the problem. <br /> <br />All voted Aye. <br /> <br />Ms. Becker retmned to the microphone a:rrl asked about the Parkview Gardens <br />Police allotment.

He said <br />alcoholic beverage and tobacco c:arrpani.es are very powerful., but people are <br />gradually realizing their products are harmful and are beginning to IrDVe away <br />from them. He said Americans are worried about excessive alcohol use, and <br />want to see the tax on alcohol doubled and advertising greatly restricted. <br />He suggested that as these companies become less successful in the u. S., they <br />are IrDVing into Third World o::>UI1tries a:rrl making it worth the government's <br />while to allCM' their sales.
