Councilman Edmund A. Ocker,
Chairman of the Town Board's
Standing Committee on Recreation
and Parks this week directed
the Superintendent of
Parks to investigate the feasibility
of utilizing available land
bordering the Wantagh- Oyster
Bay Expressway for park
purposes. The state- owned property
is being offered to governmental
agencies by the New
York State Office of General
Services.
Ocker instructed Gerard Trot-ta
to explore the possibilities
that such available acreage as
a 4.7 acre site east of Elizabeth
Drive in Plainedge is under
the jurisdiction of the Town of
Oyster Bay and can be converted
to general park purposes
" With the high cost of land,
especially in the Plainedge area,
this might be an opportunity for
the Town to obtain park land
at a great savings to the taxpayers,"
said Ocker.
Ocker also said that he instructed
Trotta to check all the
sites bordering the Wantagh-
Oyster Bay Expressway including
a 3.5- acre parcel around Doone
Drive and Snarlington Lane, Locust
Grove, and report to the
Town Board for future action.
" It we discover that this land
is suitable for our needs we
will promptly request the state
to deed the acreage to the Town
of Oyster Bay for development
for park and recreation
purposes," Ocker said.
Will Fight Commuter Tax
Lately, we've been talking to you about how
valuable your phone is, and how little it costs to
have one in your home: less than a quarter a day.
We've also been talking about how you get
more for your money than ever. For instance, 40%
of the New York State calls you paid long distance
charges for ten years ago are now local calls.
And now there's more to tell. We've cut the
one- time charge for color phones in half, from $ 10
to $ 5. And we're offering Home Econ- O- Call service,
a new bargain plan that can save you money
on calls within New York State.
• That'sfor o three- minute, station- to- stotion call onywhere in the U. S. ( except
Alaska and Hawaii), plus tax.
Assemblyman Martin Ginsberg
this week declared that he will
fight any attempt by New York
City to increase the Commuter
Income Tax as proposed by City
Finance Commissioner Roy M.
Goodman.
" Two years ago in my fight
against the Commuter Income
Tax," said Ginsberg, " I charged
that New York City would not be
satisfied with the tax rate permitted
by the enabling legislation
but would be back for more and
more. If, what Commissioner
Goodman said is part of Mayor
Lindsay's thinking which I have
no doubt it is, than my prediction
1
Besides all that, you get low night rates on
interstate calls an hour earlier, at 7 p. m. And all
weekend long till 7 a. m. Monday — 60 straight
hours. And evening rates on interstate calls begin
an hour earlier, at 5 p. m. There's also a special
midnight- to- 7 a. m. rate every night: you can call
anywhere in the country for 75* or less, if you dial
rhe call yourself.*
When you can talk about bargains like these
while just about everything else seems to be going
up, that's not bad. If talk is cheap, blame it on the
phone company.

unfortunately appears to be coming
true."
Ginsberg said that one way to
stop the city from increasing the
Commuter Income Tax, is for the
Legislature to adopt the Curran-
Ginsberg amendment to Article
16 of the State Constitution.
" Under terms of this proposal
by Senator Henry Curran and
myself," said the Assemblyman,
" any city, town, village or county
over 125,000 population would be
prohibited from taxing residents
of any other local municipal form
of government in the state. New
York City, for example, would
have the right to impose any tax
it wished on its own residents
but could not levy any tax, directly
or indirectly, on the wages
or other income earned by any
resident of the state who happens
to work in the city."
" Without this amendment,"
said Ginsberg, ' the way is open
to tax wars or tariff barriers
such as exist in Europe or existed
in our nation in its earlier
days."
Ginsberg said he has begun
conferences with other suburban
legislators of both parties to
drum up support for the Curran
- Ginsberg amendment and to set
up a united opposition to any increase
in the Commuter Income
Tax.
New Package
In Bus Strike
A tentative agreement on the
part of the negotiating team of
union leaders of the Long Island
Bus Company on a new ' package'
will be presented to the general
membership on Thursday night at
the Police Boys Club, Stewart
Avenue, Bethpage. It is a different
' package' than the one voted down
last week, according to a spokesman.
After three weeks of a bus
strike in District 22, parents and
administrators hope that this will
mean settlement. If it does, buses
will probably not roll again until
Tuesday, since Monday is a holiday
and Friday would be too soon to
make sure equipment is in working
order.
