Preble plans to lease home for displaced children
Preble County considers leasing a 12 room residence at 1321 Park Ave to house about eight of the 17 children left homeless by the January 12 fire at the St. Clair Springs Children's Home. A one year zoning variance to operate at the new site was granted. The plan limits on site housing to eight children plus the superintendent and his wife, while the rest stay with relatives or in foster care. A citizen panel will review whether a county children’s home is needed and, if so, what form it should take. The fire was ruled caused by careless smoking, and residents were evacuated in minimal clothing as flames consumed the east wing and roof. Since then the Swank family and four residents have stayed at the county home, with others elsewhere.

Kindness says gas emergency bill passed too fast for debate
8th District Rep. Thomas N. Kindness criticizes President Carter's emergency natural gas measure for haste and lack of debate. He cites two main aspects: granting the President power to allocate scarce gas to hard-hit areas and allowing intrastate gas sales above the federal price ceiling through July. He argues deregulation would better serve the public, citing the Federal Power Commission price controls as root causes of the crisis and advocating deregulation with an excess profits tax.
