A regional name committee, including Dr W A Rohlf and Judge G W Wood, will finalize the designation. Watering and six other cities are represented. Oelwein and Grundy Center report readiness and fundraising, with Cedar Falls directing a new permanent committee.

Pigs showed no TB signs at 155 degrees or higher, but some symptoms appeared at 150 degrees. The study by G M Carpenter of Cornell University notes it requires significant coal-fueled power.
