i i- i Ave 4 The DAILY JOURNAL, Flat River, Friday, November 28, 1975 Prosecution Dropped Flat River Bus Depot To Stay Obituaries The bus depot in Flat River will not be moved, a city spokesman said today. The spokesman said the depot in the Phillips 66 Service Station across from Columbia Park is providing adequate service. On Oct. 4, speakers in a town meeting focusing on the city's needs said they favored moving the depot to a less isolated business that is open 24 hours a day. The city said it would look into the matter.

The spokesman said today a. study was conducted and the present depot is satisfactorySeats have been added at the depot, and there is a pay telephone there, he said. He added the number of passengers who use the depot after midnight is very small. The service station closes at 9 p.m. Missouri.

On Roberts' decision, Black said, "It is the state's job to do justice in these cases and I think, under the evidence he has, he has taken the proper action." Roberts said the handling of the case was "a good example of two lawyers working together." A trial would have resulted in "a swearing match." Nol-prossing the charge withdrawing prosecution against Smith also will save the county more than $10,000, according to Roberts. This is the amount it would have cost to conduct a trial. The charge is to be withdrawn as soon as the Magistrate Court reopens following the four-day Thanksgiving weekend. (continued from page 1) If the case had gone to trial, "Smith would have made an excellent witness, a very believable witness," Roberts said. "I'm convinced Smith was telling the truth," the prosecutor said.

"It is the opinion of the polygraphia, based on his polygraph recording, that Mr. Smith was telling the truth when he answered these questions," is the similar statement from Scientific Investigations a Bridgeton private investigation firm. The cost of the examination was paid by the defense. Black said he had told his client if he did not tell the truth "he would probably go to the gas chamber."

Business Beat FINGERTIP BANKING Mercantile Bank with its new Fingertip Banking is now able to provide its depositors with the most exciting new banking service available. This additional service provides twenty-four-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week banking for all of those who have a checking, savings or Mercantile Bank of Farmington Mastercharge card. Customers will receive a blue Mercantile card within 10 days, which they can use in the Fingertip Banking Center in Farmington or any Mercantile Bank in St. Louis.

Deposits can only be made at the center in Farmington, but if customers need cash from their checking account or Mastercharge, they are able to make this transaction at other Mercantile Banks in the St. Louis area. A week of demonstration will be held Dec. 1 5 from 4 to 8 p.m. If this time is not suitable, persons may stop in at any time and see how Fingertip Banking works.

Traffic can be moved even faster through the intersection after the public becomes more accustomed following the officer's direction, Dalton believes. A policeman has been stationed at the Karsch-Washington intersection between 4:30, and 5 p.m. weekdays since Nov. 11. The city's board of aldermen requested an officer be assigned there because of complaints of traffic congestion in the late evening when workers are released from the city's factories.

(continued from page 1) the intersection will not be halted. For example, a motorist traveling east on Karsch Boulevard who wants to go to the Trimfoot area might proceed beyond North Washington Street and turn left onto North Middle or North Carleton streets. Similarly, motorists traveling from the business district who want to turn' left onto Karsch Boulevard might leave the shopping area on North A or North Middle streets.
