Plattsmouth High School Has Many
Rural Students From, the
Nearby Districts.
Because more rurai students in
Cass county are coming to the Platts
mouth high school the tuition rev
enue from the rural districts was
larger during the first semester oi
this year than any time since 1931.
This money is paid into the Platts
mouth city schools from the rural
schools of Cass county for the edu
cation of the rural students and the
results have been most gratifying.
The board of education have en
larged their commercial department,
doubling the amount of equipment
and provided extra reference ma
terial. The growth in the Platts
mouth high school has been the re
sult of this addition of rural stu
dents. It is a most desirable situ
ation where the rural students may
find opportunities for education close

Sen. Thomas
Urges New Tax
Exemption Law
Utah Senator Favors Clearing Up
All Tax Exempt Classes in
Entire United States
WASHINGTON, Feb. 11 (UP)
Senator Elbert D. Thomas, democrat,
of Utah, today condemned "legisla
tive" attacks on President Roose
velt's proposal for reciprocal taxa
tion of government securities and
salaries. He described present tax
exemptions from taxation "a threat
to democracy."
"If you create a great group
exempt from taxation," he said, "you
create a privileged class. When once
yon have a privileged class, democ
racy simply goes out of existence."
Thomas, supporter of reciprocal
taxation, came as the senate paused
to consider a bill passed by the house
this week providing for elimination
of present exemption on state, mu
nicipal and federal salaries. It will
be presented to the senate Monday.
No legislation has been introduced
yet for taxation of now exempted
government securities, but commit
tees are conducting hearings with a
view to drafting a bill soon.

Ickes Gives His
Views on Free
dom of Press
Secretary of the Interior Atta:ks
Many Publishers as to Atti
tude on Public Events.
CHICAGO, Feb. 11 (UP) Secre
tary of Interior Harold L. Ickes re
affirmed his stand last night that the
press is controled by advertisers and
charged that newspaper publishers
'can dish it out but cannot take it."
"There is no doubt," he said.
"that publishers enjoy complete free
dom to print or suppress, to omit, to
distort, or invert. There is no doubt
that they are responsible to nobody
save their consciences ar.d their af
filiations." He spoke before the third annual
conference of the National lawyers
Guild on the subject, "Freedom is as
Freedom Does." He said that "owing
to economic tie-ups, our press is not
as free as it should be in a demo
cracy" a charge he originally made
a month ago during a radio debate
with Frank Gannett, newspaper pub
lisher. At that time he said that a section
of the press has financial affiliations
which limit its freedom; that the
press is influenced by advertisers;
and that it is unfair to certain
groups of citizens, especially work
ingmen. "These specific charge? should have
been met. If possible, with specific
refutations," he said. "Hut how did
the press react to my criticism,
which was made with a feeling of
genuine concern for th? publk- In
terest? To begin with, without even
attempting to meet my points, except
in one instance, my opponent im
mediately began to ehout 'unfair' and
a good portion of the press followed
his lead. To prove how 'fair' they
are the newspapers proceeded to
throw dust In their renders' eyes.
"I was 'unfair' because, instead
of dealing in dazzling generalities,
I raised embarrassing Fpeclfi; ques
tions. I was 'unfair' because I was
unable to agree that all of the pub
lishers, the columnists and the edi
tors of America are a galaxy f

TO ISSUE FORECASTS
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9 (UP)
The U. S. Weather Bureau, which is,
69 years old today, is planning to
issue four Instead of two daily fore
casts. Commander Francis W. Reichel
derfer. new bureau chief who was
to congress and is contingent on
granting an increase of ?100,000 in
the bureau's budget for the year be
ginning July 1.
The forecasts would be issued at
1:30 a. m.. 7:30 a. m., 1:30 p. m.
and 7:30 p. m. They are made now
the new plans for the first time in
an interview. The program for more
frequent forecasts will be submitted
at 9:30 a. m. and 9:30 p. m.
"With the 30S weather observa
tion stations reporting every six
hours, instead of every 12, the ac
curacy of forecasts could be increas
ed considerably above the present
S5 to 90 per cent," Reichelderfer
said.
The more frequent reports would

enable the weatherman to give ear
lier warnings of storms, rains, cold
waves and other weather changes,
he Baid. The savings to shippers,
farmers and others would amount to
niilions of dollars a year, he esti
mated. "The weather changes so rapidly
and for so many reasons ttat it often
is impossible to be positive what it
will be 12 hours from the time the
forecast is made," he said. "By ob
bervations every hours it would
e possible to keep a much closer
check on conditions that produce
changes."
COURTHOUSE DEFENDERS
IRKED BY "COURT HOUSE"
BETHANY, Mo. (UP) It took
three years of debate and discussion
before citizens of Bethany finally
voted in favor of building a new couit
house, and now they are battling over
how the new building shall be named.
Blueprints for the building have
the words '.Court Hous" on the front
and architects, who say they are fol
lowing WPA forms of spelling, say
the name will be spelled that way.
Some of the citizens who hold that
Webster is the proper authority say
that "courthouse" is one word and
should be so spelled. Otherwise, they
point out, future generations may be
embarrassed by their elders' spelling.
A third faction advocates that the
controversy be ended by calling the
building the "seat of justice," a term
they say was used by Henry Clay.
