In fairness to Che Board, it has
had no alternative to selecting a
daily published in a neighboring
village for several years because
Freeport had no paper of its own.
This condition ceased to exist last
May when the Nassau County
Leader was acquired by its pres-ent
owner, a resident of Freeport
for more than twenty-one years,
and converted into a strictly local
publication devoted only to the ad-vancement
of Freeport and its' in-terests.
Rates for legal advertising are
fixed by law based on circulation.
Consequently Freeport has been
paying thirteen cents a line, or
$1.56 an inch for such advertis-ing.
The Leader .with its 9,000 cir-
^
B, csnts an Inch.
Sut desiring to co-operate with
the Board in reducing expenses,
the publisher has Rled a bid based
on the minimum of 7 cents a line
for the nrst insertion, or 84 cents
an inch, in its application for the
official designation.
How Money Can Be Saved
This ^means a saving of 46 and
two-thirteenths per cent, which
while not involving a great deal
on a single advertisement, would
amount to a considerable sum in
a year. The village paid $2,074
in legal advertising for the fiscal
year ending February 28. If the
Leader gets the 1942-43 designation
and the advertising lineage is the
same, the cost would be only $1,075
a reduction of $999 for twelve
months.
This includes the ajinual "tax
sale for which $1,500 Is allotted
in Khe budget. This amount can
be reduced to $800 Jn the forth-

23 cents a line,.the.. Board is
paying for advertising that is
reaching thousands of people who
are not concerned and falling to
reach many who are, because the
present official paper is reaching
only a portion of the people of
the village, about 2,900 less homes
than those into which The Leader
is, delivered.
Village advertising is for home
consumption only. Residents of
Rockville Centre, Lynbrook, Hemp-stead
and Mineola are not Inter-ested
in Freeport's affairs. This Is
recognized by other Village Boards,
each of which, with the exception
of Bellerose and Freeport, has
designated a local publication as
its official paper.
