The action lasted two minutes before officers halted it after a permit query. Participants tied to the Ohio Nuclear Weapons Freeze Campaign blamed the Reagan administration and urged a broader test ban while noting Nevada Test Site activity was halted by weather or technical issues.

Ohio cities take larger local income tax bite than state
Ohio municipalities heavily tax wage earners with local income levies. In 1984 total local collections reached 12.78 billion, rising 13.4 percent from 1983, with 1985 projected at 14 billion and 1986 at 15 billion. For a four-person family, 1986 local tax tops state tax at income over 23,200. Largest cities show steep gains. Toledo and Dayton rate 2.25 percent, most others 2 percent, Lorain 1.5 percent. Local taxes lack exemptions, boosting per capita burden.
