Ju:y service i s a r e s p o n ~ i b i l i t y of citizenship wherein'we . a r ~ called upon to lepre.5s emotions, control our:prejudices and r ende r a ver dI ct b as ed on the evidence:sJbmitted. .As a juror you would not be influenced b ~ the opinion iof Smith, Brown or Jones-but by t he evidence at hand. iThe fact that the Narberth Borough resident pays i$1.60 for everyone dolIar that his Merion neighbor pays Iin taxes, is an indictment of that system which imposes isuch an economic handicap. Prima facie the verificationIof th is fact p r o v ~ s the case.The first duty imposed upon the local political uni t - Ithe. protection of persons and p ro pe rt y. W e h ir e o ur !pohce protection from the township. INext comes the provision of the means for free edu- ication f or e ve ry child between t he a ge s of s ix a nd Ieighteen years. In Narberth Borough we maintain a Ischool plant for those from six to fifteen years and hire!

t o w ~ s h i p facilities for those fifteen and eighteen in- IelUSIVe. iThen comes t he va lious public utilities, probablv in Iorder of importance as follows: Water supply"':"for'that ~ e r v i c e we grant a f ranchi se to a private company-e:tch resident paying for his individual service. FireProtection-Narberth Borough and Township alike haveprivate fire companies both sUPPoIted in part f rom pr i- Ivate drives and taxes . Sewers-the borough resident 'stax bill includes sewer rental . The township resident'pay a rental of $3.00 per bathroom connected.Gas, electricity, transportation. Both residents areserved by t he s ame private corporations operating un-der f ranchi se granted . .Street improvements-In the borough practically allst reets are p av ed ; a nd i n the township, practically alls tr ee ts t ha t a re "buil t up ," i. e ., where the abut t ingproperties ar e improved ar e paved.Health departments, building inspection, regulation ofmilk supply, etc. , are functions carried on i n bot h uni ts .The borough arranges with the township for its milkinspection. I n b ot h units garbage is removed out ofthe eommon fund ( t axes) whi le i n t he borough the removal of a shes i s i nc luded. I n the township this funct ion is bei ng done i n some s ec ti on s in an experimentalway, b ut a s yet in general the resident arranges withprivate contractors for this service . The cos t per weekf or h av ing t he as he s taken f rom t he b as emen t a ndsweeping up ranges in sections from 50 cents to $1.00per week for the heating season. ,Are we not by our self-imposed political isolationdenying our se lv es a voi ce i n the government of thetownship in which we reside? We cannot get in or out Io f o ur a re a wi thout us ing the township highways; wehire certain school, police and sewer facilities, but haveno voice i n the government thereof.What do we ge t for the $1.60 that our Merion neighbor does not get for $1.00? Say we get back in sewera nd a sh s er vi ce 17 c ent s. We still are paying $1.43against the Merion man's $1.00.As a s choo l d is tr ic t, the township has twice theweal th of Narberth ( just twice the assessment per childof schoo! age). W5th a school t ax r at e of 15 millsagainst our 19 mil ls t he y a re building schools out ofin"omf>. III it right to deny our children those superioradvantages?
