Selectmen discuss PMH tax plan and state welfare funding
Dorset Bennington and Manchester officials consider paying hospital bills over two years with final due in 1969 if lump sum taxes rise. They weigh court costs if towns lose in court and debate the indigent care clause amid Vermont Supreme Court rulings. Beattie defends his remarks against press coverage and clarifies intent to aid PMH without harming towns or the indigent.

Dunham protests to O'Brien over unpaid blinds at Bennington post office
Dunham, a Bennington furniture dealer, charges Hutchinson Realty Co. of Boston with nonpayment for venetian blinds supplied for the Elm Street post office. He accuses the firm of acting as a front and asks for names of officers and owners while signaling potential criminal or political ties. He sent copies to Vermont officials, alleging the post office lease hides nonpayment and urging a halt to such leasing practices.
