Henry sorensen of Blair, representing Washington coun ty, won the 1932 Nebraska cornhusk- ing championship in the state con test on the McCartney brothers' farm near here Thursday. When the gross loads had been weighed in, the deductions made for gleanings and husks and the net pick announced, Sorensen was winner by S-100 of a bushel, exactly 5.6 pounds. He had nosed Kenneth House of Helvey out of $100 first money. Both are eligible to enter the national contest in Henry county, Illinois, on Nov. 10. House represents Jefferson county. Third place was won by Earl Baker of York, representing York county, with 30.29 bushels net. Jack Miller of Benkleman, representing Dundy county, was fourth with 29.25 and Hans Hansen of Newman Grove, Madison county, was fifth with 29.12. Tho 1931 champion, George Noe, of Fullerton, did not place among the winners. His net pick was 26.74 bushels. Last year he got 23.79. Sorensen established an all-time record for Nebraska contests. Fifteen other buskers exceeded the old record of 27. 36 bushls established in 1930 by Guy Simms of Harlan county. Baker, the home-towner, had the largest gallery following him as he traversed his land (eight rows of corn assigned to each husker were called his land). John Paasch of Elk- horn, repersenting Douglas county had a large gallery too, inasmuch as he was considered a likely win ner. In the Douglas county contest his net pick was 35 bushels. In the state contest he got 26.96 bushels A crowd estimated by officials at 25,000 braved the dust sent flying by strong south wind to watch the buskers null, shuck and send the ears thumping against tho bang boards in a steady rhythm. Two husker3 had padded their bangboards with blankets to prevent the corn from shattering when it hit. -Every grain counted. FALLS DOWN SHAFT, DIES Omaha.

Young, in calling tonight for the elec tion of the Roosevelt-Garner ticket, told a political rally that "I am not afraid of mobs if Mr. Hoover is elect ed, and I am not afraid of markets and business if Mr. Roosevelt is elected." He also declared that "it is time liberal parties came into power to save conservatives from their own destruction, and to save the rest of us who are victims, too." The prominent industrialist spoke or. the same program with the gover nor at a meeting arranged by the Republican-for-Roosevelt league.

Since the war international progress has been largely made by liberal parties. There is less suspicion and more sympathetic co-opera tion inherent between the liberal parties of the world than be tween the conservative ones. Confidence, not suspicion, is the attitude of the liberals. Courage of unselfish action rather than the fear of selfish Interests is natural to a liberal party. So in international relations, I am not concerned with what Mr. Hoover knows about them, or what Governor Smith does not know I am only intrested in what one or the other can do, and I am confident that he can do the most who has the most generous and whole-hearted lib eral support.'

Two Men and Women Killed in Germany Disorders Arise in Berlin as Police Attempt to Be open Trams. the Berlin, Nov. 4. Two men and one woman were killed and 20 were ser iously injured by police, barricades were erected in the streets of Ber lin, and street cars and busses were wrecked by stone volleys when au thorities today tried to resume op eration of traffic in the German cap ital. The Prussian commisar, Dr. Franz Bracht, tonight ordered police to fire against resistance. The socialist labor unions had ad vised their members to resume work, but communists aird Hitlerites are carrying on tne striKe witn tne re sult that the few street cars and busses which ran for a short while this afternoon were stopped in the evening to prevent clashes. Only three thousand of the 23 thousand workers returned to worTI this afternoon. The strikers laid siege to the depots or banded logeth er in militant squads edtermined to wreck any street car or bu3 which a socialist dared to pilot into the streets. The strikers are so furious at their moderate former leaders, the social ists, that when a truck with socialst newspapers arrived at a depot, they turned the truck over and beat the drivers until Dolico fired, killing a Hitlerite customs official. In the af tprr.oon nolice repeatedly fired on the mob which tried to wreck street cars, killing a man and a woman. Four hundred persons were arrest ed in the course of the day for erect ing barricades and attempting to sabotage and upset police motor lorries. The number cf arrests would have been greater, but the population of many districts helped strikers and their friends to escape. World-Herald. BANKERS OPPOSED New York.

Bell Representative 4 Phone 170 Plattsmouth, Nebraska Advance in Age for Entering School Sought Mississippi Voters to Act on Baising It from Five to Six Years At Election Nov. 8th. Jackson, Miss. Mississippi's pub lic schools no longer will serve as "nurseries" if the electorate votes to amend a section of the state consti tution in the general election Nov. 8. The amendment, one of five pro posed constitutional changes to bo submitted, raises the minimum, ago of educables from five to six years. The maximum age remains at 21. Leading educators, chief advocates of the change, insist it is Justified as a duty to school children them selves and by the financial savings possible for taxpayers. Mr. W. F. Uond, state superintendent of educa tion, inc-trumental in having the measure passed by the legislature, declared the five-year-old was "un prepared" for school. With schools showing heavy increases in enroll ment and hard pressed for support funds, he held the present propi tious time to make the needed change. "Many parents," Mr. Bond said, "simply shunt children off to the care of teachers when they attain the age of five. A child that young should remain at home another year and then, at the maturer age of six, begin his school career. The one year difference at the start will de crease failures of promotion as the higher grades are encountered. This alone will mean an important eco nomic savings." The "spirit" of the proposed change is being observed in the present ses sion of the public schools, the su perintendent pointed out. Not en forceable since it is not yet Incor porated into the constitution, tho change was explained to parents as the term opened in September and their co-operation solicited in view of drastically curtailed state and local appropriations for public schools. Another change Mississipplans will be asked to ratify, and one which has stirred up much controversy, is that holding payment of poll tax the only requisite of taxpaying to en title a citizen to vote. The proposed constitutional amendment was given legislative Indorsement at the 1932 session in the midst of "relief" leg islation growing out of threatened widespread forfeitures for tax de linquencies. Other proposed amendments would: Change the beginning of the state'3 fiscal year from Oct. 1 to July 1, coinciding with the federal fiscal fiscal year. Permit the state legislature to classify p.-operty for taxation, a change designed to reach certain "in tangibles" and to modernize the sys tem of tax-levying. Cause appropriation bills to lapse two months after the end of the fiscal year next following the meeting of the regular biennial session of tho legislature. r.nma tn Pfatlsmouth Wednes day night and mingle with tho big and oonaenial crowd.
