Anderson appeared before the board to complain about health hazards created by improper drainage, and told board members that a petition was being drawn up by people from Cedar Lake in an attempt to get someone to buiid enough ditches to drain the area. Suggests Petitions County Attorney George Hersh-man suggested that the only way to get such ditches would be to file a petition and present it to circuit court, asking that the court order ditches to be constructed. "Because the property under question notably Lauerman Rd.

is privately owned," Hershman pointed out, "the county highway department can't do anything about the situation until it is made a public road." The attorney suggested that Julius Gericke, highway supervisor, go out to look over the situation, however. Keceive Complaints A week ago, complaints about Lauerman Rd. were brought before the commissioners, and Surveyor Samuel Brownsten was instructed to inspect the area and come back with suggested remedies. A culvert under the road in the conference ground would handle about 60 per cent of the water now flooding the area around Lauerman Brownsten told the board. One big obstacle preventing county construction of ditches there, even if such a move were considered legal, is the fact that no funds are available for such a project.

Incorporation Suggested Brownsten said he had suggested to Anderson and other Cedar Lake residents that incorporation of the community would do much to solve such difficulties as drainage, health and other similar problems. Anderson said that the main bar to incorporation is the peculiar situation which places the community in two townships. "But our" community is so much Martinson Sends Police Chief of jPanama Some Data Police Chief Thomas J. Martinson of Hammond got a surprise yes-j terday. He received a fan letter from the I police chief of Panama City, Pana-; ma Canal Zone.

I The Panamanian, G. W. Camp-! bell, of the Panama secret police, wrote Martinson that he had read of Hammond's police training program in an FBI bulletin dated 1947. Interested in the program, he wrote Martinson for details, book- lets and information. I But the major part of the Hammond police training program is not carried out in the city.

Martinson wrote Campbell that the training is conducted by the FBI, and WENDELL S. FREELAND was promoted to assistant cashier at the Mercantile National bank of Hammond. Married and father of two children, Freeland resides on a small farm near Cedar Lake. Freeland joined the Hammond bank in August, 1945. For the last three years, he has been manager of the personal loan department.

Freeland, Hammond Junior Chamber of Commerce treasurer, was graduated from the American Institute of Banking. He received five clearing house awards, and was chosen the outstanding student of the 1949 graduating class. Freeland is also recording secretary of St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran church in Hammond.

This time, nutritionists say, the boys won't know the difference. Dried foods were dropped from the servicemen's diet a few years ago. No one liked them.

One complaint was that army cooks knew little About their preparation. But drying processes have been improved and the army quartermaster corps points out that in times of emergency it will have to revert to dried foods. Fresh foods can be purchased when they are plentiful, processed quickly and stored, this building up a great food reservoir. Dehydrated foods keep a long time, save storage and shipping space. They are easy to handle' because of their light weight.
