The public also cites government leaders as strong as private business chiefs in many respects.

Federal aid bill targets rural development projects
Dirksen noted the measure started at 285 million dollars but was amended to authorize funds as needed to develop rural and farm areas. Projects include water and sewer systems, health and education facilities, recreation, manpower training, and resource development, aiming to aid communities within an hour’s drive of central small towns.
