St Francis Hospital Osceola Faces Closure By Order
The Osceola St Francis Hospital faces immediate closure and abandonment as the head of the Order Reverend Mother M Edmund Reading PA directs Sister Michael to carry out the decision. The move cites personnel shortages and shocks Osceola and Polk County residents who rely on the facility for countywide services. No documentary evidence was provided and the directive prohibits contact with the Reading Order. The closure will impact county medical services, labs, and the local blood bank.

Road Financing Gets a Shot in Arm in Nebraska
Nebraska lawmakers and road boosters report added revenue sources for new highway construction in the next two years. The Legislative Council Highway Committee endorsed the plan for a two-year re enactment of the 1949 gasoline tax and higher registration fees, plus a call for an eight member highway committee appointed by the governor rather than a full state highway commission.
