Governor says AFDC aid stays at current level next year
Minnesota Governor Wendell Anderson will not push legislative moves to broaden or raise Aid to Families with Dependent Children funding. He opposes any general increase or urban rural differential despite prior 12 percent raise, citing high state payments but flat grants offsetting gains. Rep. Ulland criticizes the stance as not aiding hungry residents.

Weather and oil shortages slow county road projects report
A maintenance progress report to the County Board of Commissioners notes adverse weather and a tight oil supply have delayed bituminous mixing for several road projects. Some work, such as CSAH 20 and 5, was completed in September while other tasks like snow fence erection and beaver-dam removal proceed under conservation cooperation. Prices for piglets at Northome fell from last sale with 26 farmers selling 478 piglets at an average of 30.85 dollars, next sale set for October 23.
