Nebraska Hospital Plan Boosts Federal Aid to 90 Percent
Lincoln AP reports a fiscal 1973 revision of the Nebraska State Hospital Plan raising the possible federal funding to 90 percent for approved projects from 75 percent. A 4 percent grant is not automatic and may be reduced per project. Four projects were highlighted as on the right track: North Platte Great Plains Medical Center, Wakefield Community Hospital long term care addition, Kearney Gould Samaritan modernization, and Lions Eye Institute at UNMC. West Nebraska General in Scottsbluff seeks a grant for radiology equipment but faces a bed-need restriction.

Black candidates press tougher action on drug pushers
In Omaha, Nebraska, the two Black candidates for the State Legislature, incumbent Ernest Chambers and challenger James Wart Jr., urged authorities to curb drug pushers in the North Side Negro community. They said arrests lead to quick releases and criticized city leaders for lax enforcement while agreeing on school busing as a remedy, with Hart proposing busing as acceptable but not addressing root causes. They spoke during a radio debate on KOWH while discussing District 101 and local district issues.
