and they like him for it
But much of Chicago lives in
apartment buildings, and unfortun
ately the walls of many of these
apartments are thin. The neighbors
are favored, whether or no, by the
radio. Because when King George
speaks at 11 o'clock in the morning
in England, an admiring family
group gathers around the radio be
fore break of day in Chicago. As
the monarch's voice rolls out full
toned from the loudspeaker and pene
trates into the apartments below or
above, other families begin to stir in
thir slumber, and to rouse. "What's
the matter with the Joneses, that
they've got their radio on at this
hour?" becomes a plaint. And later
on in the day they hear it was King j
George.
Chicago is less disturbed, how-1
ever, than might be expected in view
of the incitement by its recent Mayor.
After all, it is quite a novelty to be
waked up by a king.

NEBRASKA'S EMERGENCY
Dispatches of the last few days
have painted a tragic picture of the
conditions in seven of Nebraska's
northeastern counties with respect to
I live stock. They speak of forced
I sales of live stock that was needed
on the farmers at low prices and
worse than that they refer to the
actual death of stock from starvation
One man from that territory is quoted
las saying that with 10 carloads of
feed on hand the requirements is for
la hundred carloads.
If these dispatches are to be relied
upon, and presumably they are, the
emergency Is acute and prevalent
and not one that is threatened. Hith
erto the general impression has been
that contributions of feed would be
needed and that they are coming in
The condition portrayed in these
dispatches indicate, however, that if
the contributions are to serve their
purpose they must reach heir des
tination at once, when stock is be
ing cleared off he farmers at sacri
fice prices, or actual death from star-
G0ING TO SCHOOL AGAIN
Owen D. Young went to a school
for a day at Van Hornesville, N. Y.,
recently. True, he may have been
demonstrating the value of his own
gift, for he had Just built the school
as a present to his native village, but
his day sitting in front of the black
board suggests that in these times of
change more of us might follow his
example. Look at the subjects now
occupying the front pages of the
newspapers. They must make the
readers search the recesses of their
memory for the A B C's they once
learned and have long forgotten. How
often they must regret that they have
not gene to school since hey left it.
An excellent opportunity for go
ing to school again is afforded in the
economics course now being offered
by radio. Ten broadcasts on economic
subjects by well-known authorities
have just come to an end. They were
received with such enthusiasm that
the National Advisory Council on
Radio in Education, under whose
auspices they were delivered, nas de
cided to continue them. The new
series, under the general title of
"Roads of Economic Recovery,"
started on January 9 with a talk on
"International Trade Balances, Gold
and Prosperity," by Prof. James
Harvey Rogers of Yale University.
Other talks will be given every Sat
urday evening until March 12.
Mr Young's day was spent brows
ing through a course in civics. To
day economics is a large part of civics
and the radio listener has the same
chance that Mr. Young took of re
newing his education, but, unlike
him, cf doing So without having to
build s school or even to move away
from hit own fireside.

NOTICE OF ADMINISTRATION
Ivation has set in, it is clear that
delay in making the contributions
defeats the aim. When stock feed
lis all gone, thtre remain then only
days, and a few days, to lend and
effective aid.
Apparently, the Red Cross has the
situation pretty well in hand so far
as food is concerned, but the matter
of keeping the stock alive is present
ing more of a problem. For some rea
son the state as a whole has not come
I to a realization of the need. That is
indicated by the late picture of the
stock conditions. There is just as
great a supply of feed in the state
now as there will be at any time this
season and it would thus appear that
the state has as much capacity now
to afford relief as it will have later.
And if anything effective is to be ac
complished it appears that it must be
accomplished at once.
We should remember that our fel
low Nebraskans have come to their
present condition through no fault of
their own. Their crops have for two
years been destroyed by drouth or
grasshoppers or both. Hastings
