Moisture supply is still short in western and northern Nebraska, but Hunting and Fishing Have a Big Following About Thirteen Million Perions En joy the Paatime the Gov ernment Findi New York After all the baseball bats, golf clubs, tennis racquet arid boxing gloves have been counted or placed end-to-end, the simple fact, government-endorsed, remains A that there are some 13,00,000- Inhabit ti nts of these United Stutes who cn Jry the pastime of hunting and fisii-, ing. These figures! indicating 10 - per- . cent of the nation's total population engaged In the use of the rod or gun. are arrived at as follows by the United States senate's wild life com mittee.

Denver Police Monday night were fearful of another raid on the home of Benjamin P. Bower, bakery man ager, released Sunday after being held for five days by kidnapers. Still professing that the real motive for the kidnaping had not been determ ined, officers guarded Bower's resi dence. " Altho the victim and police assert none of the demanded $50,000 ran som was paid, it was learned that Bower's wife obtained $25,000 from Denver banks, and placed the money in a safety deposit vault, where it would be quickly available. Officers also revealed that Bower promised to pay $50,000 before he was released. He had been held jn an unidentified cottage and his eyes taped shut ex cept for a few minutes when he wrote a letter to his wife. Chief Clark called Joe Roma to police headquarters and questioned him. Roma. Clark said, denied he know anything about the kidnap ing. Friday afternoon, it was learn ed, Mrs. Bower wrote a letter in re ply to her husband's letter. This let ter. Roma agreed, Clark said, to hold who protested but accepted the let ter. Roma agreed. Cark said, to hold anyone who called for the letter. Altho several persons were ques tioned, police said, they were not the principals in the kidnaping. CHURCHILL SEES PEACE ERA New York Altho he said he ex pected little in the way of results from the forthcoming, disarmament conference at Geneva, Winston Chur chill said the civilized world was starting on a long era of peace that will lead to an "increasing neglect of armaments by all countries." In an interview following his return from the Bahamas the former Brit ish chancellor of the exchequer de clared a moratorium on war debts and reparations was "inevitable and certain." The only question remain ing to be settled, he said, wa3 whe ther it should be a long suspension or a "moratorium in installments." While he refrained from using the word dictator, he expressed the opin ion the best way for democracy to ac complish things in ''these depressed and disputatious times, was to giva wide powers to competent individuals." NEW IDEA IN THIEVERY Chicago Three acrobatic youths have a new idea in thievery. Alice Geimer reported the trio climbed on her automobile while she was driv ing.

Fourteen percent of the corn is still unhusked. Hay and forage supplies are short over part of the state. Feed is ample over most of the state and a few sections have a suiplus. Soil moisture conditions are ideal in the southeastern quarter of the state. It has been years since the subsoil in this section of the state has beeu in as good condition. In addition to the heavy rains received last fall, several snows have fallen on unfrozen ground and most of this moisture will be absorbed. While this condition appears ideal for win ter wheat, there is some apprehen sion that the thaws followed by low ered temperatures caused the snow to pack and form some ice which might exclude air from wheat. Snows have been lighter in parts of western Nebraska and northern Nebraska that have not had enough moisture to put the subsoil in good condition. The condition reports on wheat are low in western and also in southwestern Nebraska. Else where the condition is generally high. Approximately 14 percent of the state's corn crop is unhusked and there has been a loss both in shrink age and quality of corn remaining in fields. The percentage of corn not husked, while varying in the different districts, is general thruouf the state, Prices of farm products remain at about the same low levels as a month ago, except for a heavy drop in but- terfat and eggs. Butterfat dropped from 24 to 19 cents and eggs from 23 to 11 cents. . The average . price TQf corn is 36 cents; wheat, 41 cents; oats, 23 cents; alfalfa, $8.37; fat cat tle, $6.10; hogs, $3.37. The prices of corn vary greatly from as low as 30 cents In surplus sections to 45 cents and 50 cents in areas having a deficiency. About one-fourth of the bankers report a shortage of feed and forage. About 70 percent reported a sufficiency and 5 percent a surplus The snow storms and more or less severe winter weather has taken a larger quantity of feed. Only a few sections report a surplus. Present soil moinsture conditions are favorable to this year's crop pro duction over the greater part of the state. Subsoil moistue supplies are still short in southwesern, western and some north central counties. Winter wheat acreage has been re duced considerably and the condi tion in some western counties is un favorable and may result in further reduction due to winter kill.

" ' " Total, Issued and estimated, 13, 000,000. - Relatively, these minimis get lit tle cr no publicity for their exploits, but it seems reasonably clear that the devotees of hunting 'and fishing far outnumber the actual particip ants in any other fport, game, or-recreational uctivity in the country. Bridge Might Rival. Contract bridge, if a censua of Us followers was possible, might jump in and offer an argument. Baseball's tremendous popularity, taking fan interest as well as competitive activ ity, is nationally recognized. .Mil lions of tennis and golf players enter the sports picture. Football involves other vast numbers.' But the general tendency in these sports is "to over estimate the number cf partici-:, pants and not even the top guess put them within shooting distance of the masses who hunt and fish for fun or for necessity. '' tj. For example, in the federal, gov ernment's survey in fourteen south ern states alone, the figure shows a total of 4,420,876 hunters and fisher men as compared with slightly less than 5.000.000 baseball and football fans, tennis and golf players com bined. I fthere is a weakness in the south ern comparison, it is- that the figures do not. include ' baseball's youthfi'l -horde of participants, along. with the. : tabulation of fans.
