Schools, other public buildings, new roads construction, water works and sewage disposal plants, together with other necessary expenditures will be included in the final resort, expected to be completed by Sept. 1. Covered by each of the studies be- ing made in the individual counties now are expenditures made during the years 1910-1935. “We expect to form a.plan flexible in its nature to care for the public + works needs of the future,” Dr. La- vine said. “The plan will be flexible so that it may correspond with the water supplies, creation of new incor- the next 25 years.” Other Boards Help Working in cooperation with the state board are city and county planning boards, Dr. Lavine said.

Spielman. DuBerrier claimed the Italians, al- though asserting it was accidental, intentionally bombed a Swedish Red Cross unit at Dolo on the southern front in Sidamo province. Gas and incendiary bombs were dropped, and heavy machine gun fire poured from the air on the ambulance unit, Du- Berrier said. During the bombing Dr. Lundstrom | of the unit was killed with many others including many wounded men, he claimed. “There was no mistake,” DuBerrier claimed, in asserting the bombing was intentional. “The nearest Abyssinian troops were 10 miles away and the armed guard of the Swedish Red Cross, consisting of six men, was three miles a: Red crosses 12 feet square were over the place and plainly visible.’ The real reason for the atrocities, said DuBerrier, is “because the Ital- jans are motivated by a hatred toward every white man who has come up here to help and they want them out} of the way.” DuBerrier said much suffering ex-/ isted among the wounded, who were without bandages, medicines and other supplies. DuBerrier was preparing to join Ras Desta’s army along the Webbe Former Dickey County Commissioner Passes Wirch, N.

Walter Welford would speak at high school exercises at Underwood on May 28, whereas in fact he will speak at Coleharbor on that date. The news story was in error. The governor will speak at Coleharbor, not at Underwood, on May 28, and the nine young men and women list- ed as prospective graduates are resi- dents of Coleharbor and not of the neighboring city.

W. A. Vater, pastor of McCabe Methodist Episco- pal church, Sunday night gave some advice to young women on the sub- ject of “Her Intended Husband,” the eighth of a series of sermons on the general subject “Has the Home Failed?” The first real test of a man, the pastor asserted, is whether or not he has a conscience.

D. Subdivisions Under Terms of 1935 Act Nearly $300,000 in free insurance premiums have been distributed by the state fire and tornado fund to municipalities during the past year, under terms of a law passed by the 1935 legislature, Harold Hopton, state linsurance commissioner, said Monday. Hopton’s announcement was on the basis of an audit report of the state bank examiner on the department, made by Deputy State Bank Examin- er James A. Brown. Under terms of the 1935 law, any municipality which has been insured by the department for five years or more is entitled to free insurance for the portion carried by the fund. Re- insurance is paid by the municipal- ities at cost. The actual amount of free insure ance premiums totaled $299,371.

Each year approximately two and & half million persons pass through the clinics of America for so-called ‘‘so- cial” diseases, he said, and it is .esti- mated that one eighth of the popula- tion of this country is so afflicted. The prisons, hospitals and insane asy- lums are filled with the results of moral uncleanliness, he asserted and 80 per cent of the children who be- come blind are the victims of trans- gression on the part of their parents.
