M y county doctors think a county < ■ e answer in order to serve \J , KQSC1 1 SKO COUNTY. Dr. Dormire. a member of the Muiphy Medical Center staff, figures at the head of this list. He has long thought Kosciusko county needs a county hospital, that the county is progressive on all 1 rents except to meet its medical needs at a rapid pace. Other counties have undertaken a county hospital program, costing tax-, payers very little. As We how stand in Kosciusko county, far too many of our medical dollars are going outside the county. We are asking our many readers, if tl ey have an opinion on this matter, to address them to Dr. Robert Dormire, 827 south Union street.

broad sense, is dedicated to all, those in the work force skilled and unskilled, white collar and blue, educators, artists* and members of all the professions. Labor, of course, is not limited to brawn alone. Labor of the mind is exemplified by the men of science.; labor of the spirit is. epitomized by the religious, and labor of the heart is personified in the work of medicine and social service, among others. ■ Therefore, let us pause during Labor Dav in tribute to the opportunity in .America for physical, mental and spiritual work, the responsibility each entails and above all else, the pleasure to be derived from work that is well-performed.
wheat has gone steadily down to the point where many fanners raise very httle but they want the best thej’ can get. The Monon variety, while relatively new, is seeded on about 70 per cent of all the wheat acreage. Its popularity is due to the short straw, early maturity and good yield plus the resistance to Hessian Fly which permits early seeding. But even so, this variety may be on its way out because there is a new strain of Hessian Fly and a new race of leaf rust If the fly becomes too serious we can go to Knox 62, another short early wheat, but it neither stands as we& nor yaeMs as well as Monon. Two good taller varieties are Redcoat and Reed. Both have good rust protection and yitid weM. but have considerably more straw and are a . week to ten days later in maturing. Plant disease control is an entirely . different problem than disease con* . trol in humans and livestock. Plants cannot be treated after they are dis- ' eased. The problem becomes one of ’ protection through resistance which , is a never ending job. Ten new vari- ’ eties of wheat have been developed in tins state in the past 25 years. Each has had a specific job of getting us a crop for a few years. ft ft ft ft ft THE PRICE OF hogs has risen about seven dollars per cwt since this time a year ago. The number of hogs going to market has been reduced 10 per cent and the price came up 40 per cent
Already the price of some pork items have more than doubled and complaints are out that inflation is rampant. Some time you should figure out What the cad of -living would be if farm prices had inflated ,the same as other commodities since .1916, Ute abundant production and even decreasing prices have been the major factor in protecting this country in the biggest, inflatimary •; period we have ever had.

I About a century ago a Hoosier boy went to Texas and got himself ; into a lot of trouble — so much trouble that he wound up in an early grave and became a legend in the crime annals of the country. Sam Bass was a native of Marion township. Lawrence county. He was born on July 21. 1851, and met death on his birthday in 1878. After he had departed this hie, a cowboy ballad was written about him. The words to his song are: I Sam Bass was born in Indianny, : lit was his native home, and at the p 1 age of seventeen, young Sam Towed i he would roam. He went fur out to Texas, a -cowboy fur to be —1 ' a kinker-hearted feller you seldom ever see. Sam used to deal in race stock, < one called the Denton mare, he I matched her in scrub races, and i took her to the fair. Sam used to coin the money and spend it just as free. He always drank good : whisky wherever he might be. < Sam left the Collins ranch in the < merry month of May With a herd of Texas cattle the Black Hills for to see. Sold out in Custer City and
O BayhLines A FROM WASHINGTON . " J® Jml A REPORT TO THE PEOPLE OF INDIANA FROM U. S. SENATOR BIRCH BATH I'' ' ' Senator Bayh Introduces Legislation On Goods To Hanoi, Viet Nam
WASHINGTON, D. C„ Aug. 27 - Senator Birch Bayh (DrfndJ said today he will introduce legislation designed to bring sanctions against j free-world nations which ship goods I to North Viet Nam. Bayh said he is considering legislation which would ban from Amer- | ican ports ships of any company doing business, with Hanoi. “I think that it is high time for these companies and the countries they represent to recognize the seriousness of tiie struggle in which the free, world is presently engaged iin Viet Nam." Bayh said. Bayh said the British Gm-'i’-j ment recently viewed with »aiunri | .the proposal sale of radio equip-* ment by an American firm to the . i Government of Indonesia. He said the British requested the American Government to disapprove a- permit which would allow the sale and the shipment of .the goods. “I personally concur with the I British Government in its position, on this particular sale," Bayh said. "It is well known that I have urged the Secretary of State to seriously' consider recalling, our .Ambassador to Indonesia because of its recent war-like acts" and its attitude toward the United States. I “But it seems rather inconsistent to me for the British’ to decry a potentkH American sale of goods to Indonesia when the British, more I than any other nation, are guilty of \ shipping goods to North Viet Nam. i a nation which is openly and flag- i rantly threatening world peace.”
CAPITOL O COMMENTS k fcy Jaßt U.S. Senator Vance ■klH HARTKE ■ • ♦ - w 4 -vGeneral Or Civilians?
Isn't there anywhete m this country a civilian capable of guiding our program for developing a 2,000 mile-an-hour supersonic transport airraised both in a letter to General the only possible qualified man? These are questions I have just raised both in a letter to Geenral WUfcen F. McKee, federal aviation administrator, and on the floor of the Senate. They arise because General McKee has just replaced a civilian, Gordon Bain, by an activeduty Air Force officer, Brigadier .General Jewell C. Maxwell, to run the SST program. Until Congress passed a special law last June allowing four-star retired General McKee to succeed Najeeb Halaby, the administrator was required to be a civilian. But now instead of a civilian running the most important SST development program and reporting to a civilian administrator, we have a one-star general reporting to a retired four-star general. Are we too poor in competent people in the aviation industry, in aviation engineering schools such as Purdue, in all our civilian life, to find a qualified leader

then got on a spree —a harder set of cowboys you seldom ever see. On their way back to Texas they robbed the U. P. train, and then split up in couples and started out again. Joe Collins and his partner were overtaken soon, with all their hard-earned money they had to meet.their doom. * Sam made it back to Texas all right side up with care, rode into life town of Denton with ail his friends to share. Sam’s life was short in Texas, three robberies did he do. he robbed all the passenger, mail and express cars. too. Sam had four companions, four bold and daring lads. They were Richardson. Jackson. Joe Collins and Old Dad. Four more bold and daring cowboys the rangers never knew, they whipped the Texas rangers and ran the boy’s in blue. Sam bad another companion called Arkansas for short, he was shot by a .Texas ranger by the name of Thomas Floyd: oh, Tom is a big sir-footer and thinks he’s might fly. but I can tell you his racket, he’s a dead-beat on the sly.
Bayh said latest State Department estimates show that 17 per cent of all non-strategic goods flowing to North Viet Nam come from ships of free world nations. He said the department also reported a 20 per cent over-all drop in free-world shipping to North Viet Nam. “We must take whatever steps are necessary,” Bayh said, “to continue to discourage free-world shipping traffic to North Viet Nam. Even if only one ship carrying one .cargo from one free-world nation should result in the death of an Amc-ican. Soldier — that would be an' unnecessary’ loss of life.” *fiie Indiana Senator said that in the first six ''months of this year, ships of the free world had carried cargoes to North Vet Nam 74 Twenty-fowr gs tiw vessel have risitotl .ynerffciii gharbors a total ®f 75 times since January, 1964. > Bayfc isajfi British-shipfe Recount for aUvat per. cent frep-world shipping to North Viet Nam. Other nations whose ships have carried cargo to North Viet Nam in tly? first half of this year include Japan, Greece. Lebanon. ' Norway and the Netherlands. Bayh said. The Hoosier lawmaker said nwt of the shipments to Viet Nam originate frotn friendly ports. On two occasions ip May. however, the British ships Antarctica and Hemisphere departed from Cuban ports bound for Haiphong, North Viet Nam.
for this project? / When the special law for General McKee vMb before us, I fought it My reason was that the principle of civilian leadership must be maintained. I said then, and in the Sen-1 ate I have nqw repeated. "The increased influent „ of the military I mind in America is a cfear warning I of ultimate* nfilitarization of the gov-1 eminent, the loss of civilian control and the beginning of ft totalitarian state. t I do not object to military leaders ntnning military affairs, but aU too many retired officers are moving into civilian posts in government They come with a military mind-set formed by their years in an aulhoritarian establishment Yet this proposed supersonic transport is not a military but a civilian plane. The French-English cooperative Concorde project, which is very similar, is entirely run by civilians. When we can’t find anyone but generals to run the show, it will be time to let the Pentagon be the boss in America. Is that what we want?

TODAY’S INVESTOR BY THOMAS E. O HARA Chairman. Board of Trustees National Ass n of Investment Clubs Q. I bought i-onds of a company shortly’ after World War II for $25, 000. They pay 2 3 t per cent interest and have a i 974 maturity date. Recently, I considered selling, but found they are only worth $21,900, so I held off. Should I go ahead and get rid of them? A. Let’s get one thing straight right at the beginning: You still own bonds that will be worth $25 ; 000 at their maturity. You’ll got y° s - u ‘ S2S.(MX) in 1974. unless the Issuing company in the meantime gets into serious trouble. You are receiving a return of 2 per eent in interest each year on the amount you invested. You, however, have run into one of- the things trat happens to band owners. Because a bond will be worth a certain amount at maturity is no guarantee that at any time .W’tc maturity you will be .able io‘find a buyer who will pay you tije.jace value of the bond. This even applies to U.S. government may see go\ernmerit bofcds quoted at 90 1 with a par value of SLCOO. a bond listed at 90 is sellp ing at that time for S9O0 1 . This does not mean that investors have decided the United States government's credit is no good. Far from it. The government's credit is verygood anti investors know it. Why then, you may ask, are $25. 000 worth of bonds of a thriving company selling for only $21,900? The answer is that the investors willing to buy your bonds now are interested in greater yield, or interest on their money. .And the only way they can get the current yield up to a place to where they’re attracted is to offer a lower price than its maturity value. The man who will pay you $21,900 will get the same total of $687.50 interest you are now getting on your $25,000. You are getting 2% per cent on your $25,000. he wiH be getting 3.1 per cent plus on his $21,900. Currently both of you would receive 4 per cent if your money were deposited in the bank. You have simply been caught in an era where interest rates are higher than they were when you bought your bond, so investors are shying away from bonds of the type you hold. As for “getting rid erf them,” ea you would of a bad investment, my answer is no. The company whose bonds you hold is a strong concern and your money would appear to be in no danger. You should not consider selling an mvestment simI ply because the price is down. If you have a place to put the money I where it wffl be equally safe and give you a greater rate of return than you are now getting that would be a better reason for selling. Q. What are "no load” mutual funds? A. Mutual funds are generally sold in three ways. One is the “contractual” plan, which is an installment program of purchasing certain amounts of funds. This can be very expensive because a high percentage of your early payments go into the salesman’s commission. It takes a long time to build up your share of the fond which is actually working and earning money for you. A second method is the “load” plan, where there is a one time commission for your investment. Here each purchase is a complete purchase and your commission is likely to be in the area of 8 per cent of the sum you have invested. Many good funds are now sold under a “no load” plan. “No load” mutuals are those
