Fines and Short Jail Terms Target Rubber Check Writers
Sheriff Frank Scholer reports a surge of check forgeries and rubber checks as victims struggle with insufficient funds. He notes 6 to 7 forgeries and at least 50 rubber checks on hand, with many more unreported. A local case involves Bob Snyder alias Richard Dale Lincoln, driving a 1936 Ford. Justices of the peace in Burlington use fines equal to the check amount plus costs, with repeat offenders facing jail or penitentiary terms to deter the practice.

Kingsley Paving Project Progress and Controversy
Kingsley residents hear that Fballett Construction completed the first paving pole section near Kingsley while crews were laid off Monday. Work resumed last week and finished within the week. A travel street block between the new pavement and town street is planned, though Third Street will remain unpaved due to unwilling property owners. State officials rejected wider paving on Highway 140 and crossing intersections, instructing mere paving to the fence line. County Engineer Nelson confirms the paving was completed.

Taxpayers Face Bill From Plymouth County Flood Damages
Plymouth county may receive about 173000 dollars in federal aid for replacing bridges on farm to market roads washed out by the flood. The federal bureau will pay half of the farm to market bridge costs, about 175000 dollars if damage reaches one million. The rest falls to Plymouth county taxpayers as the government will not cover all expenses. County officials work to repair temporary bridges and paving in Le Mars and Kingston, with roads closed and shoulders to be built for safety.
