Local Lady Aid Finding Suzann Laing, Des Moines Mrs. William E. Keeley of this city has proven to ba a valuable aid in solving the disappearance of Suzann Laing, 16-year-old Des Moines, la., student at Brownell Hall, Omaha. Miss Laing, senior student at Brownell, in her second year at the school last Sunday secured a permit to take a one hour walk from the school and from that date until Wednesday her where abouts was unknown. Her disappearance caused a great deal of apprehension to the school and to the parents, Dr. and Mrs. M. M. Laing, of Des Moines, who were notified of the disappearence of the daughter, it being thought that she might have returned home from the school. She had been traced to the Greyhound bus station in Oma ha and there the trail was lost until Mrs. Keeley had been in O maha to visit her husband at the Veterans hospital, Sunday, and took the late afternoon bus back to Plattsmouth. On boarding the bus a young lady occupied a seat with Mrs. Keeley and the two had chatted until reaching Plattsmouth, where Mrs. Keeley had gotten off. On Tuesday Mrs. Keeley read the story of the dis appearence and the description of Miss Laing, this aroused her suspicions and she later called the missing po.s ns bureau of the Omaha police department, and the search was on at Kansas City, Mo. Telecast of the story was made and the parents on the base of the storv hurried to Kansas City and had an appeal to the daughter to return tele cast. This was seen by the girl and shortly after she reported ! at a police station and was pla ! ced in touch with the parents, j On reaching Kansas City Miss Laing had gone to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas E. Cates, and they had also seen the tele cast. She had met Mrs. Helen Cates, 17, daughter-in-law of the Cates on the streets and had gone to her home. After seeing the telecast Miss Laing had con I fessed to her hosts about the In cident. I The story was revealed of a lover's quarrel between Miss Laing and a boy friend student at Des Moines high school. The girl was home Thursday night and the family and young people reconciled. I Mrs. Keeley is a sister of Sheriff Tom Solomon of this city and she had apparently shared the brother's keen sense of de tection.

Graves had but two cases up for hearing and one of these will be heard at a later date. Richard E.

Mr. and Mrs. Orville Nielsen of Aurora were Sunday dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Don Cot ner. Commissioner Nolte Has Statement (Continued from Page One) anonymous person in a letter to the chairman demanded action. "During this special meeting I requested that the complain ing party be identified and pre sent himself for questioning, also the petitioners who were present who by the way had petitions carrying the names of 51 farmers of the controversial area, also wanted to question this objector but the chairman of the board would not disclose his name. "It has been the board's policy that each member direct the bridge crew when working in his district without consulting the other board members. This pol icy was being followed in an orderly, constructive way and as funds were made available. "Much ado has been made over the fact that the road now ends In a corn field. This was done because sufficient funds were not available at this time to complete the project and the crops in the path of the road have not as yet been har vested. "It was far better to start and add to the road until complet ed than It would have been to continue stalling the residents of that area which had been th2 policy for the past many years. All one has to do is to look I north of Plattsmouth where for the present time the south i bound lane of the new U. S. 75 j ends In a corn field and will remain there until sufficient I funds are made available for the Plattsmouth by-pass. "Now, in view of the closing of the Louisville road by the state, citizens of the western part of the county have no dir ect route to the county seat and must now either go six miles south and take State No. 1 or continue on further south and use U. S. 34. "Or, one might take , a train to Plattsmouth or come by way of Sarpy County. This to me is a deplorable situation which should never have been allowed to exist. "Five years ago, work was commenced on the Greenwood Mynard road. One-half of this project is completed and the other half was shelved in favor of a road which carries a traf fic count of 100 vehicles per day less and will co.t upwards of $95,000; while no request of any individual or delegation was made before the board for this project. "The Bureau of Public Roads Secondary System gave the Greenwood -Mynard project a number one project rating. This rating and the demand of the road users is being sidelined. A large delegation from the 1st and 2nd Districts appeared be fore the board (in January this year) in favor of the Green-wood-Mynard project. "Voting 2 to 1 in favor of dropping this project was utter disregard of the rating of the road and of the general welfare of the county."

When Asiatic Flu first invaded the United States, there was no known vaccine that would provide immunity against it. Today, there is one thanks to the research and resourcefulness of the American drug industry which had to start from scratch to develop, produce and dis tribute the vaccine.

When he has the vaccine, he will be happy to administer it to your family. . i....i. ...
