RESUME PROJECTS
From Tuesday's Daily:
The project which has been author
ized for the public library under the
WPA was started today when Ralph
! Olson and Anna Peoples, who were
j working on the indexing work at the
office of the county judge, were trans
ferred to the library. This work wa3
held up pending the securing of the
properly qualified assistants to carry
on the work.
The indexing work at the county
judge's office was resumed today on
tho authorization of Mark Kerns at
Nebraska City. Allan McCIanahan
and Peter Gradovllle are carrying on
this work at the offi e of the judge.
Dan Stephens
Says Sen. Burke
is Impossible
! Thinks Omaha Senators Vote on the'tais
Conservation Bill Is Diffi
cult to Explain.
Fremont. Dan Stephens, opposing
Senator Burke for national commit
teeman, in a statement issued here
said:
"The new deal in 1034 whenj
Eurke was making his pledges naa;j. w. Crabill and Everett L. Gooci-
brought corn from S cents to 50 cents,
hogs from 2 to $G. . heat from 25

man who was not foi the new deal
was considered hopeless.
"So our candidate, Burke, had no
trouble in getting an overwhelming
majority both in the primary and
general election. We had all hung
over IIoover'3 hell so long we still
had the odor of brimstone in our nos
trils. So we sat back glad that God
reigned and Burke wa3 elected to
help the president.
"Thru the dark year of 1933 when
we were struggling for a new toe
hold as we climbed up out of the
depth of despair, I always remem
bered to thank God for Roosevelt's
great vision, steady heart and hand
and marvelous courage and high
ideals. He made good his promises
for a new deal. We have it.
"When Senator Burke voted
against the conservation measure, de
signed to replace the benefits of the
tripl3 A wrecked by the courts, he
had a conspicuous place. He is re
ported to be one of the 11 senators
out of a total of 96 that voted against
this salvation measure for agricul
ture. He was the only senator from
any farm state to vote against the
bill. His vote was cast with the sen
ators from such states as Massachu
setts, Connecticut, Rhode Island,
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Maryland
all industrial states. Does Burke
know how to vote in our Interests
or Is he against us? I give it up,
yet we can't go on with him until we
know."

OIL AND GAS EUSENESS GOOD

Housing Drive
Plans Progress
in Washington
Advisers Propose to Shift the Em
phasis "to Local Control
of Program.
Washington. Federal housing
agencies are astir with new prepar-
numerous agencies concerned with
housing. Advisers on the subject are
said to have split mainly over the
question of how much federal aid
should go into subsidized dwellings
for tho lowest income classes.
Suggestions for changes in the
existing machinery for promoting
building recovery and for a long
range slum improvement program
have sifted thru the central housing
committee and Peter Grimm, one of
the presidential advisers.
Officials express confidence the
president will be able to reconcile
the right and left wings on a definite
program, embracing changes in the
housing act designed to stimulate pri
vate enterprise and federal assistance
for eo called slum clearance.
Hints of how administration
thought was running on low cost
housing plans were seen by some in
the governraent'3 withdrawal in the
supreme court last week of its test of
federal power to condemn land in a
Louisville project.
Leading housing advisers, while
favoring some form of subsidy for
low rental projects, propose to shift
details of management, obtaining
land and so on to local communities
and states. That would take the gov
ernment out of direct activity in
housing and relcive it of the problem
of land condemnation.
On the strength of latest building
reports, the right wing agencies,
dedicated to advancing private build
ing and financing, have been girding
tor i he most active spring and sura
r.irr constructio nsince they were or
ganized in the battle against depres
sion. REVIVAL MEETING TO RESUME

corder of the Murdock Camp
Awarded Gold Pin.
A gold emblematic pin has been
avarded to Mrs. Lyda Lawton of
Murdock, Nebr., by Royal Neighbors
of America, fraternal benefit society,
in recognition of her record of serv
ing 10 years as recorder of Camp No.
55'J7, Royal Neighbors cf America, of
Murdock.
Mrs. Lawton has carved continu
ously as recorder of Camp No. 5597
since 1926. The award is one of
merit and signifies faithful service in
behalf of the society, which has 600,
000 members.
The pin, which i3 slightly smaller
than a quarter in size, is attractively
designed. It is decorated with the
emblem of the society, which is sur
rounded by a book and wreath, all of
which i3 penetrated by a quill, the
latter being significant of the work
of the camp recorder. The inscrip
tion "Faithful Service," is above the
emblem and the word "Recorder" is
below the emblem.

land, 111., supreme recorder of Royal
Neighbors of America. In the letter
Miss Barthel stated: "The award
means more than the fact that you
have served a certain number of years
as camp recorder. In a larger sense
it means that you have had a definite
part in the progress of Royal Neigh-
bors of America. The society has
, grown steadily, now ranking as one
of the leading fraternal benefit so
cieties, and camp recorders have been
an important factor In this advance
ment. With this in mind, it is with
a deep sense of gratitude that the
society recognizes your services."
KNOWS SHOE REPAIRING
The Nebraska City News-Press has
i the following very interesting story
Qt the repairing ability of Mrs. Jack
Sherwood of that city, husband of a
former well known resident here,
j Necessity isn't going to find Mrs.
j0hn Sherwood with "her hands
tied," should that old bug-a-boo ever
COme her way. The Sherwood Shoe
shop will carry on should the men
folks ever be compelled to shoulder
a wheel elsewhere.
Today when the
top hand" Is
rushed Mrs. Sherwood will pick up
an awl, or what have you in shoe
fixing tools, and presto, the big num
ber 12 or the dainty debutante slip
per comes out good as new.
"No it isn't a gift. It all comes
from applying yourself," Mrs. Sher
wood will explain. "You see during
the World war, when my husband,
(John Sherwood) did war duty, I kept
the shop going as best I could. It
wasn't easy, because it was all pretty
new to me. I decided then and there
I'd know how to straighten a heel or
sew up a rip just in case "
She started at the bottom and
worked her way to the all important
part of running a shoe sewing out
fit. A new sewing equipment later
installed is not yet familiar to her,
but she'll know about that too some
day, she says.

Sketch of Life of
Mrs. M. J. Craw
ford of Murdock
One of Oldest Residents of County
Laid to Rest Resident of Hear
Nehawk?. Since 1SQ6.
Mrs. Melissa Jano Crawford, nee
Sweat, born in Pike county, Illinois,
March 25, 1842, passed into eternity
Monday, March. 9, 1930 at 10:30
o'clock a. m. at her home in Mur-
dock, Nebraska. The life of 93 years, j
11 month3 and 14 days, came to a
quiet and peaceful close after tome
fifteen years of physical handicaps
and confinements.
She grew to young womanhood in
her native state and there received
her early education and taught
school.
Mrs. Crawford married Robert P..
Crawford on November 24, 1859. Two
girls, Viola and Lydia, graced the
early home-life of that union. Her
hut,band was drafted for service intojzen, has been a Christian example and
the Union army of the United States
October 10, 1864, after six years of
married life. He was killed in the
battle of Franklin, Tenn., after one
month of national service.
She then married James Crawford,
a soldier brother of her first husband,
February C, 18CG, who resided in
Pilot Hill, California. In the spring
of that year Mr. and Mm. James
Crawford filed on a Nebraska govern
ment claim in South Bend precinct,
three miles north of the present site
of Murdock.
They engaged in the homestead life
with the true pioneer spirit. They
contributed their part, through hard
work, daring adventure and rugged
determination, in the development of
this section of Nebraska from the
wild, unsettled frontier into a large
agricultural empire.
During the years of 1SC8 to 187S,
when her husband was favored with
numerous appointive and elective of
fices in the new frontier life, Mrs.
Crawford filled a large place in the
community. When he served as jus
tice of the peace, her home became
the scene of many frontier legal en
tanglements and court trials by
jury. Many times in the absence of
her husband she skillfully declared
the law for clients and performed
the duties of the respective offices.
After serving as a Cass county com
missioner and as a member of the
Nebraska state legislature, he died
in 1S97.
The deceased remained on the farm
from 1S66 to 1904, when she and a
son, Robert, moved into the village
of Murdock, where they have lived
together until her late departure. In
August, 1920 Mrs. Crawford fell and
fractured her left hip. Hope for a
normal recovery was in vain, for she
lived the balance of her life as an
invalid, largely confined to her home.
The departed leaves a family cf
five children: Mrs. Viola Copple of
Lincoln, Nebr.; Mrs. Lydia Radtke,
Waukomis, Okla.; Mrs. Diana Bush- Manacek, of Omaha, were Sunday
nell, Ashland, Nebr.; Robert and;vjsjtors with relatives here Sunday,
James Crawford, Murdock, Nebr.;
two foster cons, J. Philip Brisbine
and John McCarthy of Council BlufTs,
Ipwa. Two children preced the
mother in death, Frankle Lee in 18S6
and Mrs. Mattie Eickhoff in 1922. A
sister, Mrs. Mary Rager of Keatsville,
Mo., survives the departed. Likewise
there are 25 grandchildren, 30 great
grandchildren, many nieces and
nephews and a wide circle of friends.
The early pioneers and friends of her
generation have all passed away.
Mrs. Crawford confessed her faith
in Jesus Christ early in life and
united with the Methodist Episcopal
church of the early day. She read
and believed in God's word and lived
happily in the spirit and power given
by her Master, who promised eternal
life. Her Christian faith and devo
tion to her Lord remained cheerfully
consistent and faithful throughout
the years, in spite of the shadows
that crossed her life. She joined the
Miu r dock Ebenezer Evangelical
church by a certificate transfer from
the Elmwood, Nebraska, Methodist
Episcopal church May 23, 1920 dur
ing the pastorate of the Rev. A. H.
Schwab. The transfer was effected
about three months before hcr tragic j
accident and has been in force until j
her death. Throughout the years, she
revealed a cheerful disposition; she
bore her suffering &s a soldier of the
cross; she was a true Christian wit
ness in the midst of affliction to the
sufficiency of God; and she possessed
a deep love for her home, frionda, her
community, the church, the American
flag and her garden and flowers.
The earthly life has ceased a few
days short of attaining 91 years. The j
eternal life has begun. Relief and,
rdst are her possession. God has
been her refuge and strength. This
testimony, written by her own hand
during the affliction, bears proof of
her Christian steadfastness: "God isj
sufficient for every emergency and Ij
Don't Wait'
Come in NOW and leave
your measure for that
new Spring Suit ... and
have it ready for you
when you need it!
Easter is April 12
WESCOTT'S
Since 1879
have found it so in my own life. Now
I fear nothing, not even death itself."
The revered and oldest citizen of
Murdock has been taken from our
midst. A3 citizens, we have cherished
long her cordial friendship and vital
interest in our community welfare.
Her life, as a highly respected citi-
blessing for many year. Today, a3 a
silent tribute to the passing of
Grandma Crawford, the business men
of the village have closed their places
of business lor one hour, in memory
of one whom they have esteemed.
The funeral services for Mrs. M. J.
Crawford were conducted under the
direction of the Korton funeral home
of Plattsmouth, Nebr., by the Rev.
Harvey A. Schwab, pastor of the
Evangelical church at Murdock, Nebr.
March 11, 193G, at 2:30 o'clock from
the Ebenezer church. Interment took
place in the Wabash cemetery, near
Wabash, Nebraska.
e s e
Card of Thanks
We take this means of expressing
our appreciation and gratitude to the
friends for the many kindnesses
shown during the invalid life and
departure of our mother, Mrs. M. J.
Crawford. We especially thank the
many friends, the Evangelical church,
Sunday school and the Ladies' Aid
society of Murdock, who have con
tributed in so many, many various
ways to bring cheer and comfort dur
ing the days and years cf lonlinesu
and suffering, for the help services
in preparation for, and in conduct
ing the last rites; for the presence of
many friends at the funeral; for the
many floral tributes, and the many
heartfelt expressions of sympathy.
