Cafe Man's Body in Vain: Iowa River Search Continues
Continued efforts by workers dragging the Iowa river fail to recover the body of Jonas Seibert, proprietor of the Princess Café. A note found tied to a stake reads Goodby you can find me, supporting the theory that the farewell is a plea rather than a confession.

German Tax Burden Tops One Fifth of Earnings
Berlin reports show the average German pays over 22 percent of income in direct and indirect taxes since the war. A study by tax experts Dr. Herbert Conrad and Dr. Friedrich Raab notes rising government revenue while national income grows little. The average unskilled worker pays taxes nearly as high as bankers and professionals. The piece also notes social items from bobbed hair protests to memorial plans and labor issues in Berlin.

Mallard duck farming as sport and stock aid
A historical note argues mallards can be bred in captivity for sport and food, noting government licenses about 3,000 breeders and annual yields around 40,900 ducks. It advocates club-led efforts to raise 10 broods per club to boost wild mallard populations, citing New York’s Sherburne game farm where a single setting has produced self-sustaining mallards along the Chenango river.
