The investigation by the
Pawhuska Police Department
into the disappearance of Cindy
Kinney has taken a turn for the
better, it was reported today.
But details are being withheld
UAtil leads can be fully checked.
‘A Ve have had several en-
New Cindy Kinney leads ‘encouraging
couraging leads,” a police of-
ficer said today. The case is in
its fifth month of investigation.
Cnythia Dawn Kinney
disappeared from a laundry in
downtown Pawhuska at ap-
proximately 9:30 a.m. June 23.
Confusion by the witnesses
about the people involved and
the automobile in which she was
seen leaving the laundry
hampered the investigation.
Conflicting reports identified
the girl as leaving with two
men, or two women, or two men
and two women. The vehicle
was first described as being a
1966 caramel Plymouth
Belvedere.
After much investigative
research, it was determined
that two men and two women
were involved in the disap-
pearance.
The car described by wit-
nesses was found in the county
and was discovered to have
arrived at the laundry shortly
after the Kinney girl disap-
peared. The owners of the car
in question were cleared of any
involvement in the case.
The car being sought now is a
1965 or 1966 faded beige
Plymouth Belvedere.
A $10,000 reward offered by
the girl’s family has received
only a few inquiries and will
apparently go unclaimed.
The missing 16-year-old girl is
described by friends and family
as being a “nice girl” who was a
good student and particularly
fond of baton twirling and
cheerleading.
Rumors on the street also
hampered the investigation,

Carter blasts GOP
for inflation rate.
hi
unemployment
By DAVE RILEY
Associated Press Writer
Jimmy Carter said today Re-
publicans have failed to stop in-
flation “because they believed
that unemployment was the
cure.” President Ford’s spokes-
man countered that economic
indicators, which have dropped
over-all for a second straight
month, show "solid growth."
Carter’s attack came in an
economic position paper. It ac-
cused Republicans of fearing
“to stand up to powerful spe-
cial interests ... They have
sought to play business and la-
bor and agriculture and con-
sumers against each other rath-
. * than seeking cooperation."
k ^ Democratic presidential
mlinee said he would aim eco-
nomic aid programs at areas of
high unemployment, enforce
antitrust laws more intensively
and launch an active White
House effort to hold down in-
flationary price increases.
Presidential Press Secretary
Ron Nessen took note of the
second monthly decline in the
government index designed to
predict future economic growth
by saying: "An examination of
the leading economic index
shows that the recent pause in
our economic recovery is con-
cluding, and the economy will
continue its solid growth."
The index declined seven-
tenths of a per cent in Septem-
ber It dropped by the same
percentage in August. Although
it indicates a current economic
slowdown may continue, econo-
mists say they are not certain
of a sustained decline until the
index drops three months in a
row.
The major factor in the Sep-
tember drop was a decline in
new orders for consumer goods
and materials. Other factors
were a drop in the average
work week, an increase in the
manufacturing job layoff rate
and deterioration in vendor per-
formance, liquid assets, sensi-
tive prices and money balance.
“We are particularly encour-
aged by the two key indicators
which have the most influence
on future economic activity,”
Nessen said. He cited capital
goods orders and building per-
mits. “Both are significantly
higher,” he said.
Nessen issued his statement
in Milwaukee, where Ford told
the Wisconsin branch of the Na-
tional Education Association
that the government’s multiple
education aid programs should
be consolidated because they
cause confusion and unneces-
sary waste.
He said school administrators
"are buried under an ava-
lanche of paper generated by
no less than 128 separate and
often overlapping federal aid to
education programs.” Ford
gave no blueprint for reorgani-
zation but his proposal is part
of a larger government-pro-
gram consolidation plan he has
been proposing for several
months.
The President got a warm
welcome from the Wisconsin
NEA. It’s parent national or-

Special to The Journal-Capital
U. S. Rep. Ted Risenhoover today announced that
Pawhuska will receive $287,086 in federal revenue sharing
over the next four years while county government is due
$377,539 for its operations in the four years.
The payment amounts were furnished to Risenhoover by
the U. S. Treasurer. The bill, was passed by Congress this
year and signed into law by President Ford October 13.
Osage County's payments will be $73,735 this year and
$101,268 for each of the next three years. Pawhuska’s
payments, in addition to the county’s share, will be $56,068
this year and $77,006 annually for three years.
Avant is due $6,226; Barnsdall, $23,558; Burbank, $2,643;
Fairfax, $78,458; Grainola, $939; Hominy, $180,343; Osage,
$2,401; Shidler, $15,542; Webb City, $2,632, and $7,721 for
Wynona spread over the next four years.
The Osage Tribal Council’s total allowance will be $266,406,
starting with $52,029 this year and $71459 each of the next
three years.
“Federal revenue sharing is very important in keeping
local government strong,” Risenhoover said. “I fought for
the program and I am pleased that we are able to now tell
each of the communities and county officials exactly how
much money they can expect during the four years of this
program. They now have firm figures for planning. "

Vitamin C helps
cancer patients
WASHINGTON (AP) - Ter-
minal cancer patients live
about four times longer after
receiving large doses of vita-
min C, says Nobel laureate Dr.
Linus Pauling. Other research-
ers say his findings look prom-
ising enough to warrant further
study.
A study conducted in Scot-
land by Pauling and Dr. Ewan
Cameron says the mean surviv-
al time of 100 dying cancer
patients was more than 210
days after they were declared
untreatable by conventional
methods.
This compared with a mean
survival time of 50 days for 1,-
000 terminal patients who were
used as study controls because
they did not get the vitamin,
said the report in the October
issue of Proceedings of the Na-
tional Academy of Sciences.
Pauling, awarded the Nobel
Prize in chemistry in 1954 and
the Nobel Peace Prize in 1962,
has been at odds with much of
the medical community for ad-
vocating large vitamin C doses
to prevent and treat common
colds. There still is no over-
whelming consensus on that is-
sue.
Dr Paul Chretien of the Na-
tional Cancer Institute said
Thursday there are serious
questions about the methods
used to conduct the cancer
study. But the results still are
encouraging enough to indicate

reprisals expected
BELFAST, Northern Ireland
(AP) — Protestant leaders pre-
dict a new wave of assassina-
tions, street shooting and bomb-
ing by the Irish Republican
Army in reprisal for the mur-
der of IRA woman leader
Maire Drumm in a Roman
City man wounded
There was a reported
shooting at the Model Hotel in
downtown Pawhuska Thursday

matter, and further details
were unavailable because
deputies were out of town.
Pawhuska police did not handle
the case.
