290 Board Okays 2 3 Million Budget
The 1975 76 U S C 290 school system budget near 2 3 million was adopted by the board of education. The mill levy rose only 0 8 due to increased state aid and rising district valuation. SPICE funds may support program expansion in special education. An alternative high school program for seniors was extended for another year. The board accepted a food service agreement with the federal government and discussed a treasurer search, naming Bruce Spears from 12 applicants. Parents and teachers may form a new administrator group at a future meeting.

Grain Traders Urged to Pause Soviet sales
The Ford administration urged grain traders to refrain from further negotiations with the Soviet Union for at least a month amid weak U.S. harvest prospects. Agriculture Secretary Earl L. Butz cited unloading delays of 9.8 million metric tons at Russian ports and emphasized protecting American livestock feed needs over expediting exports. He warned prices may rise but expected continued talks with Moscow until negotiations resume, with more sales likely later. The Crop Reporting Board projected a record 6.85 billion bushels of corn, though eastern Corn Belt conditions have degraded estimates since Aug. 1.

The United States vetoed both North and South Vietnam UN membership bids in a Security Council vote 13 to 1, citing South Korea exclusion. Moynihan cast separate vetoes as critics charged a Cold War tactic, while abstaining Costa Rica noted, and observers criticized the move as retaliation over Indochina. The report also notes a county forecast of increasing clouds and possible showers tonight into Wednesday.
