Coal Mine Safety Bill Faces New Push in House
Washington UPI supporters of a coal mine safety bill plan another drive after past failures in opposition. The measure would extend federal safety rules to Title One mines with 14 workers or fewer and was earlier stalled in the House Rules Committee. Backers say it has a better chance if brought to the floor, with strategy debates on sticking with the current bill or introducing a new version. The Senate approved a similar measure two years ago.

In Memoriam Lacy Garnie Thomas Flowers for Valentine’s Day
In loving memory of our husband and father Lacy Garnie Thomas who passed away February 5 1961 One year has passed and gone Since one we loved so well Was taken from our home With Jesus to dwell The flowers we place upon his grave Will wither and decay But the love we have for him who sleeps Shall never pass away. Somber wishes from Maudie Thomas and his children. In loving memory of our beloved husband and father Lacy Garnett Thomas who passed away February 5 1961 Time speeds on one year has passed Since death its gloom cast Within our home where all seemed bright And took from us a shining light We miss that light and ever will Your vacant place there is none can fill Down here we mourn but not in vain For up in Heaven we will meet again We cannot clasp your hand dear one Your face we cannot see But let this little token Tell that we still remember thee God knows how much we miss you Never shall your memory fade Loving thoughts shall ever wonder to the spot where you are laid.
