AX-SAIL-BEX My native state! Vast prairie land! Where boundless plains seem to expand Into a rippling, silver sea Of measureless immensity, This was the sight of my child hood eyes Looked on each day in glad surprise. From over strange, unbroken ways. Brave pioneers came in early days; I saw them in the crimson dawn, Their weary exen plodding on. liuge covered wagons blazed the trail, Such faith and courage could not fail. The lurid flame of prairie fire, ikivid but to kindle keen de sire To ti.me the land, wrest from its hold, The wealth the virgin soil con trolled; Tor a determined, conquering Z'jet. Prevailed through all the won drous west. Th? mighty buffalo's rumbling mad, Chcok the new land; while overhead, The eaglo dozed upon a cloud, And rear the field where father plowed. The antelope tip-toed quite near, lliz wild heart still unknown to fear. Cx.:e lonely days and hardships drear, Th:n neighbors came and friends so dear; The tide of settlers mounted higher. Then lo! A land of Hearts Desire. From earnest toil and efforts great, Columbia gained a glorious state. The friendlike old sod house i? gone. Our state is just one splendid farm; Her orchard groves and fertile fields, Trovide the world a liberal yield; We reap today, the Pioneer's price, The narveet of their sacri fice. Ak-Sar-Ben Land, red, green and gold. Of wealth abundant, joy un told. As countless thousands ask fcr bread, Nebraska gives till all are fed. I salute, with pride, this au tumn morn. The grand old state where I was born. MINNIE JOHNSON HARDY. HYITAED C01IUTJITITY CLUS The regular meeting of the My nard Community club will be held on Friday evening at S o'clock.

Recognizes Soviet; Bullitt to be First Envoy Pledge Against Any Propaganda Ex acted by President Roosevelt; j Terms Accepted. j Washington, Nov. 17. Recogni tion of soviet Russia by the United States was announced today by Pres ident Roosevelt. Sitting at his desk in the executive office shortly after 4 p. m., Mr. Roose velt smilingly said that the lG-year breach between the two nations was actually ended at 10 minutes before midnight last night. At that time he and Maxim Lit vinoff, soviet commissar for foreign affairs, came to an agreement on the points that have been in negotiation since Litvinoff arrived November 7. The two were in the White house at the time. William C. Bullitt, a state depart ment expert on Russian affairs wno has attended the personal conversa tions between the chief executive and the Russian diplomat, has been pro posed by the president as the first American ambassador to the soviet union. Effective at Once. The president was asked whether recognition was actually effective un til an exchange of ambassadors but Mr. Roosevelt said it was his horse back opinion that diplomatic rela tions were resumed the moment h and Litvinoff came to an agreement. Who will be the Russian ambas sador to this country was not im mediately disclosed. The White house made public a bulky document covering the points agreed upon. Mr. Roosevelt chuckled when he asked the reporters to read it in its entirety. The exchange of communications between the president and the soviet government's foremost diplomat showed that an understanding had been reached on propaganda, the right of religious freedom for Amer ican citizens in Russia, civil rights of American nationals and com: claims. Agree on Consular Convention An agreement also was reached for a "consular convention" between the two countries in which the United States is to be assured that its citi zens will have all the rights that are granted to the nationals of other states under existing treaties with the soviet. The convention will deal specifically with the rights of con suls of America and Russia. Members of the soviet delegation said that accord reached l-.fore re cognition set no precedents so far as Russia is concerned and that it con formed to ether understandings and treaties reached by the soviet with other state?:. The involved cjuestion of claims and counter claims between the two countries was largely left for fur ther negotiations. World-Herald.

New York. Conrad H. "Mann, president cf the Kansas City cham ber of commerce, walked out of the federal house of detention after serv ing only four hours of his five month sentence for violation of lottery laws. President Roosevelt pardoned him late in the afternoon, but it was two hours before the federal red tape could be severed and Mann could be freed from the prison on Manhattan's waterfront. Surrounded by United States mar shals and attorneys, Mann stepped thru the door of the government prison to the sidewalk. His eyes were tear filled and his hands shook as he. accepted the congratulations of the little group waiting for him. "There's little I can say very lit tle only that I'm deeply grateful to President Roosevelt," said the busi ness leader who once served as a member of former President Hoover's unemployment commission. Mann posed for photographers be fore the prison, turned and waved a jovial goodbye to the night guard at the gate a different man from the prisoner who, four hours before, was described by his attorney as f'all broken up" at the surrender. Lim Treadwell, young government prosecutor of the Kansas City busi ness leader cn lottery charges grow ing out of affairs conducted by the fraternal order of Eagles, effected Mann's release on orders from Wash ington. Mann signed a formal ac ceptance of his pardon and a guar antee to pay a $10,000 fine before Dec. 30. WHISKERS FOUND BY DRAKE Railway Commissioner Drake takes! exception to a proposed new tele phone rate-depreciation policy state ment of Commissioner Bollen and said Bcllen's plan was along lines follow ed by the Nebraska commission for years. "That policy is so old that it has whiskers," Drake said. "We have been.- working . for years in confer ences and hearings to determine what is a proper depreciation allowance. Final action would have been taken months ago if the interstate com merce commission, working on the same problem, had had time to reach a final conclusion. "Instead of the companies taking 10 to 20 percent more for deprecia tion than i3 justified as Bollen charges," Drake said, "I'm inclined to believe they've had considerably less. Companies that take only 5 percent can show figures on tests of supposed ly nonpartisan bodies showing costs running up to 8 percent on deprecia tion. The rate is determined in a composite manner, since all parts ot a telephone property do not depre ciate at the same rate, nor do they depreciate in different counties at the same rate."
