ANTICIPATE LIQUOR REPEAL
Washington. Justice department
experts are engaged in a thoro study
of the legal aspects of repeal in an
effort to determine what new legis
lation will be needed if the eight
eenth amendment i3 removed from
the constitution. This study is sup
plementary to one conducted by a
special committee in the treasury in
preparation for revision of taxes, tar
iffs and regulatory laws in case the
repeal amendment is ratified. With
out expressing an opinion on wheth
er the Webb-Kenyon lav, prohibiting
the transportation of liquor from wet
to dry states, would become operative
with repeal, Attorney General Cura
mings said he believed a reduction
might be made in the number of pro
hibition investigators now on duty.
If it should be decided that this
statute is effective after repeal, it
would be the duty of the federal gov
ernment to enforce it. The number
of prohibition agents has been cut to
1,200. Cummings said he felt that
there would be no increase. In the
treasury, officials of the internal rev
enue and customs bureaus and the
division of industrial alcohol are
making studies at President Roose
velt's direction in preparation for
what might happen if repeal should
come.

Most of the
State's Corn Now
Safe from Frost
Yield Is Disappointing in Some Sec
tions of the State, Bankers'
Reports Show.
Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 27. Nebras
ka corn is mostly free from frost
danger though prospective yields are
disappointing to the state's bankers,
E. V. Jones, assistant agricultural
statistician, reports today.
Central, northeastern and east
central counties are expected to yield
about normal, elswhere slightly be
low to near failure on the basis of
the bankers reports. Farmers, snap
ping corn for cattle in several coun
ties find disappointment in both yield
and quality.
Western and southeastern districts
will produce only 16 bushels per acre,
the renort shows. Northeastern sec
j tions, better off, hit near 30.
. Prices Decline.
While farmers and bankers watch
conditions, "the general level of farm
prices continues to decline."
Corn weather has been good
enough to mature the crop before
frost danger. Winter wheat also
found favorable weather with fall
sowing under way "under excellent
conditions."
Late forage, hay and pastures have
benefited by good August rains. The
only evidence of moisture shortage
is in north central and northeastern
counties.
Western Nebraska potatoes improv
ed during the past 30 days.
The entire state i3 short feed sup
plies, oat3, barley and small feed
grains suffering most. Corn supplies
will be short, supplies of alfalfa and
other hays below normal.
Hog Cholera Light.
No unusually severe losses are
noted from hog cholera, though its
presence in scattered localities is no
ticed. Hay, butterbat and eggs gained
ground in the price field. IIay'3 ad
vance is -partly seasonable, ' partly
due to shortage. The general trend
declined from August 15 to Septem
ber 15, though less than the prior
30 days. Grains and meat animals
slumped. Potatoes dropped C5 cents.
Butterfat and eggs jumped about two
and one-half cents each.
Union Workers
Ask for 30 Hour
a Week Limit
Seek Lower Minimum in All Forth
coming Codes to Provide Em
ployment for More.
Washington, Sept. 2S. Unionized
workers started a movement to take
full advantage of opportunities al
lowed them under the recovery act
and demand officially, thru the Amer
ican Federation of Labor that forth
coming codes limit their hours on the
job to thirty a week.
Two meetings preparatory to the
federation convention next week
were under way the metal and
building trades departments. Official
reports to both said a work week
longer than thirty hours would not
re-employ the jobless. Officers of the
union label trades department, which
begins its convention Thursday, said
similar recommendations would be
made to that group.
Proposed resolutions suggest that
each of these trades inform the fed
eration of their desire for a thirty
hour code week. Officers of all three
trades agreed these resolutions would
top their list of proposals. All groups
also heard renewed pleas to organize
every last worker so their strength
will be greater for the collective bar
gaining allowed by the recovery act.
To the building trades department.
President M. J. McDonough's report
said: "A sharp reduction in hours is
essential under this (construction)
code to bring employment in the in
dustry back to its predepression level.
We maintain that the thirty hour
week is the longest work week which
can be considered If the essential
purpose of the act is fulfilled."
Even a thirty-five hour week, he
added, "would delay the re-absorption
of the unemployed, if not create
more unemployment." In New York
state, he said, the men actually em
ployed the first five months of 1933
averaged only 30.2 hours a week.

Professional
Man a Figure in
Kidnaping
Believed to Have Supplied the Brains
in Urschel Conspiracy Predict
Arrest in Few Days.
Oklahoma City. Sidelights of the
P. Urschel kidnaping trial Cared up
ia the holding . of a former Texas
peace officer on a robbery charge and
the announcement federal authorities
were seeking "a professional man"
as a leader of the abduction conspir
ators. "There may be another arrest
in a few days," said Harold Lathan,
assistant director of the bureau of
investigation.
Q. R. Miller, former sheriff of
Bayard county, Tex., wa3 held for
trial in district court at Shawnee on
a charge of robbing Elza Evans of
$2,250 while Evans allegedl ywas ne
gotiating to buy what he thought was
part of the $200,000 Urschel ransom.
Evans told the court Miller held him
up in a hotel room Sept. 5, and rob
bed him of funds he had withdrawn
from a bank to purchase "hot" money
involved in ths, kidnaping at 50 cents
on the dollar. Evan said Miller and
a companion told him they obtained
the ransom money from Fort Worth
thru contact with the actual kidnap
ers.
Joseph B. Keer.an, assistant United
Stages attorney general, who led the
prosecution 01 the ten defendants on
trial, said that 7a soulless, sinister
character, with a trained mind, is be
lieved to have been involved in the
kidnaping, and the government is
making every effort to apprehend
him."
He pointed out that testimony fail
ed to reveal the author of ths clever
ly worded note which detailed the
Urschel family tbft steps necessary to
procure the oil man's release. "That
note was the product of a trained
mind." Keenan declared. "It was
definite, concise, well-phased, and
does not read like; the composition of
an illiterate gangster."
Authorities intimated Albert Bates,
accused with George Kelly of being
an actual kidnaper, had been nego
tiating with them in a proposed trade
wh.er.eby the outlaw would reveal in
formation about the uncovered ran
som money if the state will drop rob
bery charges upon which the death
penalty might be inflicted. State

HAS CAR STOLEN
From Saturday's Dally
Last night at a late hour, George
Barr and family arrived home from
Ashland and left the car parked near
their residence oV North 9th street.
It was discovered early this morning
that the car was missing. The police
were notified and the car discovered
near the Shea tourist camp, the lights
on the car burning and both doors
open.
It seems that Mr. Barr had a car
buretor on the car that was hard to
get operating and this was the cause
of the failure of the persons stealing
the car to make a clean getaway. The
car had evidently been coasted down
the hill to where it was found, there
being evidence that the parties had
tried hard to get-the motor running,
but without success.
Missouri to be
Open for Ships
by Next Spring
Channel Ready March 1, Navigation
to Start Between Kansas
City and St. Louis.
Washington. Sept. 28. Commer
cial navigation of the Missouri river
from its mouth to Kansas City by
March 1 was virtually assured Thurs
day when Acting Secretary of War
Woodring approved the report of Gen
Lvtle Brown certifying the six-foot
channel would be ready by early
spring.
Woodring instructed the Inland
Waterway Corp. to make a survey of
traffic, tariff arrangements and ter
minal facilities on the river.
This information is to enable the
secretary of war to determine the ad
visability of extending service of th
corporation when the channel is ready
for navigation.
The order was a formality, as the
survey already has been completed
under the direction of Maj. Gen. T
Q. Ashburn, president of the Inland
Waterway Corp.
Foresees No Obstacle.
"Final determination an to
whether the- Inland Waterway
Corp. shall extend its service to
the Missouri river, rests with
the secretary of war," General
Ashburn said. "But, as far as
I am concerned, no obstacle will
be placed In the way."
General Brown certified that a suf
ficient and dependable channel of six
feet in depth and 400 feet in width
exists from, the mouth of the river
to Kansas City and that it would be
available 95 per cent of the time after
March 1 "with reasonable mainte
nance."
His report said the channel would
bo available at all times when ex
treme low water discharge of the
river is reinforced by proper stor
age. It i3 understood that a plan has
been drawn by army engineers but
not yet authorized by congress tc
provide for storage.
General Ashburn said little re
mains for the Inland Waterway Corp
'irk ir aavoTt nut 1 n f 3 n n tfiA rirpr
when ordered by the secretary ol
war.
Navigation by Spring.
"Boats are built," he said,
"terminal facilities have been
constructed or planned. Unless
something unforseen arises, I
feel sure navigation will begin
on the Missouri river in the
spring."
The channel from the river's mouth
to Kansas City is. 398 miles to length.
Work under a $14,150,000 appro
priation of the middle Missouri, be
tween Kansas City and St. Joseph
Mo., is now under way. Approximate
ly 3,000 men are being employed.
The Inland Waterway Corp. al
ready has received an urgent request
from a Kansas City shippers' organ
iation asking for the establishment
of a river traffic office there. Gen
eral Ashburn promised an announce
ment relative to opening an office
there after an interview with his
chief of traffic Friday.

Road to be Closed
East of Eagle
Faving Project on No. 24 Highway
Hakes Necessary Closing of the
Road and Use of Detour
From Saturday's Dally
This morning a section of highway
No. 24, or as it is better known, the
"O" street road, was closed three
miles ea3t of Eagle. This was made
necessary by the start of the work of
grading and getting ready for the
paving that will be done this fall be
tween the Elmwood corner and the
end of the present pavement at the
outskirts of Eagle.
The closing of the main highway
will make necessary the use of a de
tour which will run over four miles
of dirt road. The dirt road will be
graveled in the next week or two,
however, as two shifts are now en
gaged in spreading the gravel there
on, but as it is being unloaded irom
the cars into the trucks by hand la
bor in order to supply more jobs, the
speed of spreading is slowed up ma
terially.
The route of the complete detour
will be north from Elmwood corner
into Elmwood, thence west to a point
north of Eagle, and south into the
west edge of Eagle. Both the north
and south roads are graveled now and
only the east and west stretch 13 be
ing graveled to provide a complete
gravel detour.
Completion cf the work now con
tracted for on "O" street will leave
an unpaved gap of but 14 miles and
thl3 is expected to be provided for in
early spring lettlngs.

Reflation as a
Price Booster
Nebraska Ssnator States That Fanner
Needs More Than 50 Cent .
Wheat to Fay Bsbts.
Washington, Sept. 29. Senator
George W. Norris of Nebraska, Fri
day declared for immediate reflation
of the currency to cheapen the dol
lar's purchasing power, boost com
modity prices and level debts.
Replying to a questionnaire sent
by Senator Thomas, Oklahoma, Nor
ris, from his home at McCook, Neb.,
wired:
"I am of the opinion inflation
of the currency is necessary. We
must make it possible for those
in debt to pay what they owe.
"A farmer who borrowed ?1,
000 when wheat was worth 1.50
a bushel is no required to pay
hii debt with wheat worth 50
cents a bushel. This is an im
possibility. It cannot be done.
"We gave the necessary au
thority to the President. I voted
for it on the theory he would
exercise that authority and I
would be glad if he would do so
at once."
Senator Thomas attacked the fed
eral reserve board for "failing to
exercise more extensively lt3 author
ity to buy government bonds in the
open market and thereby maka it
easier for banks to make loans and
put money In circulation," Thomas
said:
"The federal reserve board is
still following a policy of defla
tion. The reserve banks bought
$36,000,000 worth of govern
ment bonds last wck but there
v.-&3 a net reduction of $10,000,
000 in money in circulation.
"The resrve banks ought to
increase their bond purchases
to at least $100,000,000 a week
and if this increase does not
provide sufficient money in cir
culation. President Roosevelt
ought to use other powers giv
en him by congress to expand
the purrency." Omaha Bee
