Victor Ander son. Funds, from the state's institu tional building fund levy, will be used to remodel the heating plant, and electrical and water distribution systems. The governor also will look over bids on the work when they are received. Interstate Speculation j State Engineer L. N. Ress says if "land grabbers" are at , work in Nebraska along the j Interstate Highway he isn't a- j ware of it. Robert Armstrong, of the Ne braska Citizens Council, a tax-. payer group, said in a speech at St. Louis that speculators are attempting to move in on j the Nebraska Interstate. Armstrong also said there Is "political jockeying" on placing i of connections to the Interstate. Ress said there isn't any of that either in Nebraska and won't be as far as he is concern- , ed. j The engineer is a member of the powerful design committee of the National Association of : State Highway Officials. That is the group that makes recommen dations to Congress on design of the Interstate Highway. j Armstrong spoke at a Middle States Taxpayers Conference. ! He said one of the most diffi- i cult problems in Nebraska is acquiring right-of-way at "rea sonable" nrices. Ress said he anticipated trou ble in getting right-of-way when Nebraska got into building the Interstate Highway because it takes a minimum of the width of a football field for the route. "People just don't like to sell their land," he added. The research director for the Citizens Council, meanwhile, Leonard Bronder, discussed the subject of Nebraska's approach o mental health problems, also at St. Louis. The key to Nebraska's appro ach, Bronder noted, is training psychiatrists which are in sho rt supply nationwide. Right now there are 24 train ees at the Nebraska Psychiatric Institue in Omaha. At the end of three years resident training, they will serve at least two years in one of the state's mental hos pitals or clinics. i Bronder said in the last three j years the number of patients In ; the state mental hospitals drop- ped from 4,781 to 4.391. He com-1 mented that Nebraska was a lea-; der last year nationall with a 5.4 per cent reduction in mental patients hospitalized. The nation al cut was 3.9 per cent. ' Also, the state was a leader ' in the fild of first admissions to institutions, with a drop of 14.6 per Cent, compared with 3.9 per cent nationally. Bronder said the more money spent now by governments in mental health work will save tax dollars. in years ahead. Gasoline Collections Up There has been a whopping increase in collections of the sev-en-eents-Dor-gallon tax on gaso line in Nebraska. i The State Division of Motor' Furls reports collections since Jan. 1 totaled $1.7 million, com-' pared to $14.6 million for the siime period in 1957. i Reason for the boost is a change from a six to seven cent tax, the division explained. , I TENDER JUICY MEATS THAT SIZZLE TO PERFECTION.
