Veterans of Foreign Wars district commander named
Twenty years ago in Warren a local veteran leader, Dr. Merle Amy, was named commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in the 29th District. At the same time a Pennsylvania Railroad wreck interrupted traffic near Warren, while National Guard units prepared for Mount Gretna encampment and a home explosion injured one person. Auxiliary members hosted a regional gathering at First Presbyterian Church with attendees from multiple counties.

State Engineer Orders City to Build Plant
City officials weighed costs for a sewer plan with estimates of 3.50 to 4 per family once all facts are known. Officials discussed up to 30 percent of homes possibly not connected to the system and thus not paying rent. Interest rate and bond type were debated, with notes that a 100 percent reassessment might be considered to reduce costs. Eastern shore of the creek near the Center street bridge referenced.

City weighs reassessment to fund bonds
The discussion centers on using seven percent of assessed value to back general obligation bonds. With current assessments at about one third of market value, raising to seven percent of market value could enable the city to issue bonds and raise 1.1 million dollars. No final commitment was made on the reassessment.
Council faces hold on municipal plant project delays
Kinley stated the council would likely accept a cooling‑off period. Horley warned that enforcing policy to seek a court order could suspend public funds for any municipal improvements until the plant is built, allowing only repairs such as street paving or sewer work. Harvey voiced surprise at Corry Water Co. contract refusals and permit issues.
