Mrs. Mills Hurt in Automobile Accident During Trip Mr. and Mrs.

M. L. Mills returned home Thursday afternoon from Daytona Beach, where they spent most of the month of April with Mrs. Mills' brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs.

A. J. Love, and nephew and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Travis Impson, and daughter, Mary.

Another nephew and wife, Col. and Mrs. Ivan Impson of Tinker Field, Oklahoma City, were also there for one week. En route to Florida, Mr. and Mrs.

Mills were in an automobile accident on April 7, the second day of their trip. Mrs. Mills said they were driving on a winding blacktop Toad just after leaving Lake of the Ozarks when they struck slippery blacktop and Mr. Mills lost control of the car which landed upside down in a ditch. Mr.

and Mrs. Mills, who received cuts and bruises, were hospitalized at Branson, for and one- half days, Their Buick was wrecked. After buying another Buick at Branson, they continued their trip. On the way back from Florida, they came through Georgia, Tennessee and Kentucky, going into Hewed Close to Line The Legislature, this shows, adhered remarkably close to the 117 million dollar annual figure it was told last February by Gov. William S.

Beardsley safely could be appropriated. The governor made no recommendations for capital improvement funds. The Legislature agreed with the governor on operating funds, and added million dollars for buildings. The governor told the Legislature in his budget message that it safely could appropriate 10 million dollars more per year than the 107 million a year the 1951 Legislature apprpriated, without increasing the sales or income tax. He estimated that the general fund will have a balance of million dollars on July 1.

That's the date the 1953 Legislature's two- year appropriations start. He also estimated that the general fund would take in 8y 3 million dollars more in the next two years than it did in the present biennium. He advocated using the were seeking two men who, they said, altered checks given them in payment for cleaning the cesspool at the home of an elderly woman in the village of Roelyn near here. The authorities said the two men also obtained $125 in cash from another elderly Roelyn woman for a similar job. Police gave this version of the incident: Mrs.

Emma Anderson, 82, hired the two men to clean her cesspool. They worked about an hour and then one man asked Mrs. Anderson for his pay. He made out a check for $80 and she signed it. A short time later, the second man also demanded pay and threatened to call the police if million dollar balance and relying upon an million dollar increase in revenue in the next biennium to provide the extra 20 million, making possible the spending of 10 million more a year.

Upped Cigarette Tax The Legislature did not increase the sales or income tax. But it did increase the cigarette tax of 2 cents per package to 3 cents, effective July i. This increase is expected to put into the general fund another million dollars a year kind of insurance that the governor's estimate of an million dollar increase in revenue won't fall too short. The Legislature took the million it appropriated for new buildings and the half million a year it put into liquidation of the old state public employe pension system from the 30 million dollar general fund reserve, put aside in 1D49. Thus, if the governor and the Legislature guessed right, the next she didn't pay him the same amount as the other man.

She did so. But when the checks were cashed, police said, the amount on each had been raised to $180. Police said the men also solicited and got the job of cleaning a cesspool for Mrs. Anderson's neighbor, Mrs. Kate Gunderson.

She paid them $125 in cash after they threatened to call police because she said the amount they demanded was exhorbitant, -officers said. was removing two marshals from their posts.

Increased Gasoline Tux The Legislature increased the 4- cent state tax on gasoline to 5 ce.nts a gallon for two years from July 1, to bolster the primary road fund's need for construction money.

These people were being sent somewhere. We deduced they were being sent to this other camp." Broomhead, 26, of Salt Lake City, said the Communists sometimes broke down prisoners and forced them to "confess" things they had not done. He said other prisoners believed these men also sent to the mysterious camp.

That officer was shot down over North Korea some months ago.
