'Setups is Rule
Makings for Mixed Drinks Are
Banned by the State Li
quor Commission.
The liquor commission has enter
ed a formal order banning sale of
"Setups" in beer parlors and forbid
ding possession of any liquor in beer
taverns.
"Setups" were defined as ginger
ale or any other drink which may be
mixed with alcohol and ice for the
purpose of mixing drinks. Chairman
Gass of the commission advised beer
dealers to stop all sales of ginger ale
or other mixing drinks unles3 the
purchaser wished to take the bottle
out with him.
Also forbidden by new orders was
the practice of drinking liquor on
premises licensed for package sale
only. The order also banned cus
tomers from loitering on beer or li
quor licensed premises after the clos
ing hour fixed by city or village or
der. "It is further provided," the order
continued, "that the sale to any cus
tomers of any quantity of liquor for
the purpose of consumption of said
liquor in his place of business after
the closing hour, shall be deemed a
violation of this regulation."
Penalty for violation of any of
the regulations was to be revocation
or suspension of the violator's li
censes. The commission, following a hear
ing, denied a beer license to William
Fleischman of Elmwood.

HAS VISIT FROM BROTHER
J. R. Tremble, who resides at the
Nebraska Masonic Home, had a very
pleasant surprise this week in a visit
from a brother whom he had not seen
for the last twenty-seven years. The
brother, J. L. Tremble and son. Earl,
of Osage, Saskatchewan, Canada, ar
rived here after a tour through North
and South Dakota and spent some
time with the brother. It is needless
to say that the visit was one that
was most enjoyed by the members of
the family.
An announcement of a dearth of
applicants for the $3,000 job of di
rector of the newly created state as
sistance committee has brought out
seventeen applications, and the sug
gestion from County Commissioner
William Barber of Omaha that Ern
est F. Witte, who has been serving
as state administrator of emergency
relief, be appointed, making a list
of eighteen. Barber said in a letter
to Governor Cochran that he did not
know that Witte would consider the
job, but he asked the governor to
consider Witte's good work in that
position when it comes to selecting
a director.
The director will really have three
jobs in one, director of direct relief,
director of old age assistance, and
director of assistance for blind, de
pendent, crippled or delinquent chil
dren. State Land Commissioner Swanson,
secretary of the board of educational
lands and funds which is designated
by the new law as state assistance
committee, has received six addition
al applications from men desiring
to fill the director's job. Swanson
commented on the irony of politics.
"I'm a republican, the only one on
the state board of educational lands
and funds. I'm the secretary of the
board and all the applications for
the job of director of assistance come
to me.
"Pretty nearly all the applicants
tell me what good democrats they
are."
W. F. Dahms, 1333 K street. Lin
coln, ten years a resident of the cap
ital city, has applied, stating that he
has been a "very consistent democrat
for twenty years."
W. F. Porter of Lincoln, formerly
secretary of state and recently a dem
ocratic candidate for governor, prom
inent in the Townsend pension plan,
has applied, stating that no one has
done more along the line of advo
cating pensions for the old than he.
George W. Olsen of Plattsmouth
joins the other applicants. Fred
Meehan of Omaha, sterotyper, has
applied.
George B. Campbell of Seward,
with seventeen years experience in
banking and for two years engaged
in fire insurance field work and ad
justing, 60 years of age, has applied.
A. H. Mann, 4 0 years old, living in,
Lincoln, is another applicant. In
cluded in his experience was one year
devoted to welfare work and rehabil
itate nwork for the Elks state asso
ciation and the state department of
vocational education on a program of
rehabilitation of crippled children.
B. F. Perry, old age commissioner
under the law enacted by the last
regular session. Is one of the seven
teen applicants. The old law under
which he was working was repealed
at the recent special legislative ses
sion. It was an act originating in
the 1935 regular session and was con
strued as not making an appropria
tion, consequently Perry and his of
fice force drew no pay. The special
session appropriated funds in the
treasury to pay this debt and Perry
and his clerks are now presenting
claims totaling $2,129. Auditor Ayres
said he would allow them when they
are presented. Perry was on the pay
roll at $240 a month. He employed
four clerks In October but cut the
number to two in November. His
claims for himself and clerks in
clude $276 office and traveling ex
pense.
HAVE WILD EXPERIENCE
Thursday three ladies in a Buick
car were driving south on Seventh
street and when near the top of the
hill at Marble street, the car ran out
of gas and in the sudden excite
ment the driver released the clutch
and the car started on back down
the rather steep hill. The car struck
a tree and then continued on its way
down the hill, crashing into the
porch of the J. E. Meisinger home,
removing a small section of the
porch. The ladies were from out ot
the city and will long remember their
wild ride down the hill.
