Name Commit
tee for Aid
Group to Co-operate With Other
States and Government ; Ac
tion on Return.
Washington, Aug. 13. Governor
A. J. Weaver will take steps to ap
point a general committee to co
operate with other states and the
federal government iu co-ordinated
drouth relief as soon as he returns
to Lincoln, he said here tonight just
before leaving for Nebraska.
Carrying out the president's pro
gram, Weaver said he would name
representatives of the state on a
drouth relief committee comprising
a leading citizen as chairman and a
state agricultural official, a leading
banker, a farm spokesman and prob
ably a railroad official. The commit
tee's duty will be, be said, a national
nroKram of furnishing forage and
food to the worst-affected area. Weav
er has informed the White house that
Nebraska stands ready to cut and
transport wild hay into needy le
gions.
Discusses Waterways.

cussion of upper Missouri river de
velopmeut and the reservoir system
of flood control with General Lytle
Brown, chief of army engineers and
an hour's conference with Chairman
Alexander Legge of the federal farm
board.
Governor Weaver received a tele
gram while here from the Omaha
Chamber of Commerce requesting
him to attend a meeting in Omaha
later this month when General Brown
visits the city on an inspection tour
of the Missouri.
His talk with General Brown fol
lowed a visit' to the secretary of war
Thursday to urge that navigation de
velopent of the upper Missouri be
exnedited. Besides discussing the
same topic today with General
Brown, Weaver also urged that the
army engineers give full considera
tions the plan for reservoir flood
control of tributary waters.
"Very Responsive."
Weaver said following his confer
ence that General Brown is "very
responsive" to the plea of mid-western
states for development of the in
land waterways. The governor es
pecially cited the recent demand for
water from Dawson county growers
as proof of the economic advantage
of water storage for irrigation as
well as for flood control.
Weaver's conference with Chair
man Legge was at the request of the
farm board head, who desired fur
ther information in the posibility of
utilizing Nebraska forage surplus if
It is needed. Legge expects to give
further attention to this problem,
Weaver said. World-Herald.
NORRIS W11TS IN OWN PARTY
Lincoln, Aug. 15. Analyzing last
Tuesday's senatorial primary election
in Nebraska, the Lincoln Star said
Friday that no more than 7,500 Dem
ocratic votes were cast for Senator
George W. Norris and had these
votes been cast for candidates with
in that party the senator would have
had a margin of 2 4,000 over W. M.
Stebbins.
The Star figures are based upon
a comparison of votes cast for this
office in 1030 and in 1928 when
Senator R. B. Howell was up for re
nomination and many Democrats aid
ed him.
On this basis the newspaper fig
ured that 3.5 per cent more of the
state's entire vote went into the Re
publican primary in 1930 than two
years ago, assuming, in that man
ner, that the fraction of the G. O. P.
vote was for Democrats who left
their own ranks to support Senator
Norris.
John Curtis
Quits Railway
Commission
He Joins Iowa-Nebraska Light
Power Co.; Denies 'Reward;'
To Live in Lincoln.
&
Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 15. John E.
Curtiss, chairman of the Nebraska
railway commission, today announc
ed his resignation from that body
effective September 1, to accept a
position with the Iowa-Nebraska
Light and Power company with head
quarters in Lincoln.
Chairman Curtiss has been a mem
ber of the commission for nearly
three years. By appointment he filled
the unexpired term of II. G. Taylor
and was elected for the remaining
two years of Taylor's tenure.
Prior to his appointment, Curtiss
had been secretary to the commis
sion for seven years.
His position with the power com
pany, he stated, will be as industrial
director and general manager for the
Lincoln district which embraces Lan
caster county. In the latter capacity
he succeeds Charles C. Helmers who
becomes assistant to the president.
To Study Natural Gas.
Adoption by the city of Lincoln of
a natural gas franchise, Curtiss ex
plained, prompted him to resign prior
to the expiration of his term in Jan
uary. He had previously withdrawn
as candidate for re-election when he
first considered acceptance of the new
position. ...
By joining the utility company in
September, Curtiss said, he will have
ample time to familiarize himself
with the industry and with the de
velopment of the local plant with the
advent of natural gas.
"In accepting the appointment I
have no hesitancy for it nowise
savors of political reward," he said.
"It may not be generally understood
but it is true that the railway com
mission has limited jurisdiction over
electric utility companies and dur
ing the years I have served upon the
commission this company has not ap
peared with any important matters
which I have been called upon to de
cide." Weaver May Appoint.
The commission, he added .has a
perfunctory duty to perform in the
matter of construction of rural lines
and in these matters only ha3 the
commission considered problems from
time to time, having no jurisdiction
in fixing rates.
His resignation will leave a va
cancy until January though it may
be filled by Governor Weaker by ap
pointment until that time, when the
candidate elected in November takes
office. World-Herald.

UNIFORM CHILD LABOR
LAW BENIG DRAFTED
Chicago, 111., Aug. 12. A uniform
child labor law is being formulated
here today but it holds no threat for
the little chap who carries your golf
clubs, the lad who shines your shoes,
or the one from whom you buy your
newspaper.
So-called street trade3 were ex
empted from the suggested statute
being considered by the national con
ference of commissioners on uniform
state laws, holding its fortieth an
nual session. There were too many
pleas from the "boys who made good"
business professional men who "re
membered when."
The statute would, however, re
move anotner laminar ngure irom
the streets at night. It would pro
hibit persons under 21 from being
messengers between 8 p. m. and 6 a
m. Moreover, it would put a taboo
on the performances of child prod
igies who flash before the public as
violinists, actors and whatnots.
Only the street trades would be
open to boys and girls.
WEAVES SETS SAFETY WEEK
Governor Arthur J. Weaver, in a
proclamation issued Friday, desig
nated Sept. 1 to 7 as Safety week, and
urged that all employers in indus
try, commerce and agriculture and
all operators of amusement parks
nd carnivals make careful inspection
of their equipment in this period.
He also suggested that all bus
and freight transport companies
heck their schedules to make sure
that no driver is forced to exceed
speed limits to keep on schedule.
Motor vehicle operators are urged
by the governor to put their vehicles
in safe running order and to obay
all traffic laws.
All organized groups meeting in
the week are davised to devote a
part of their programs to safety and
accident prevention.
In 28 days of July, Governor Wea
ver pointed out, 1,257 severe acci
dent casualties occurred in Nebras
ka. One hundred and seven persons
were killed, 1,150 were seriously In
jured, perhaps permanently disabled.
In the first six months of 1930, he
declared, 466 persons were killed,
and 4,033 were injured.

1930 FRUIT YIELD IS 18 PER
CENT LARGER THAN 1929
Washington, D. C, Aug. 14. The
1930 yield of ail fruits was estimated
today by the department of agri
culture on the basis cf August 1 re
ports to be IS per cent above the
1929 crop but 10 per cent less than
the 10-year average.
Uie increase over last vear i.--
noticcable in all crops," the depart
ment said. "The greatest precent-
age increrse is in prunes and plums,
largely grown in California. The
grape and citru3 crops are consider
ably above last year's production.
The California fruit crops iu 1929
were reduced sharply by freezes;
and, with the favorable conditions
prevailing in that state during the
present season, the increase above
1929 has been most marketed.

yield was 2.33 tons. The total value
of all hay crops reached the magni
ficent sum of $57,131,000.
Some sections of the state where
wild hay is produced in abundance
are highly favored by nature. Luie
in the fall in meadows and valleys
water from underground springs
rise and make large shallow lakes.
In the spring the water disappears
to allow a hay crop to grow to ma
turity. This hay is high in nutri
tive value and furnishes the basis for
great cattle herds in that section
which later reach the feed Ic'.z
the grain sections to be finished.
Cherry county is the largest pro
ducer of wild hay, with a production
last year of 415,202 tons valued at
$3,072,495. Holt county, ran a close
second with a production of 2S7.2S2
tons worth $2,125,SS7. A by-product
of no small importance, especially
in Holt county, is the gathering of
blus grass seed which is in demand
the country over.
Dawson county led in the produc
tion of alfalfa and all tame hay,
with 46,606 acres planted to alfalfa
and 4,0 9 5 acres planted to other
hay. The revenue from tame hay
received by Dawron county farmers
was $1,652,640. Scottsbluff county
ran Dawson a good second in alfalfa
with a crcD valued at $1.070,S10.
Custer ran a close third with a total
of $1,008,121.
Nebraska holds the rank of first
in alfalfa acreage and second in
alfalfa production. Newport, in
liock County, bears the distinction
of being the largest .wild hay ship
ping point in the world.
If Nebraska ever tires of being
the Cornhusker state it can switch
to Hayseed state and keep right at

CHURCH OPINION IS SPLIT
London A sharp division of Ang
lican church opinion has been caused
by the Lambeth conference sanction
of birth control in certain circum
stances. The Anglo-Catholic organ,
the Church Times, described the per
missive resolution adopted by the
bishops as "a postive resolution in
Christian morality and a great de
parture from the position adopted at
the last Lambeth conference iu
1920."
Dr. Walter Carey, the high church
bishop of Bloemfontein, who was one
of the sixty-seven bishops who op
posed the birth control resolution,
writes in the Church Times: "In or
der to clear my soul I wish to say
that there are statements in the re
port from which I conscientiously
and vehemently disassociate myself."
The resolution to which Dr. Carey
referred agreed that birth control
might be practiced "where there is
such a clearly felt moral obligation
to limit or avoid parenthood." Pro
vided this was done in the light of
of Christian principles. It condemn
ed birth control from motives of sel
fishness, luxury, or mere convenience.
