which began July 1. November de
fense expenditures of over 365 mil
lion dollars continued the steady
step-up in spending taking place
in each of the preeeeding months.
Even so, the total defense spending
for the five months was far behind
the 5.5 million dollar rate budgeted
for this fiscal year.
Of interest locally was the news
that Nebraska definitely would
lose a seat in congress as the re
sult of the 1940 census. The census
bureau, in giving out the figures,
reported a continued westward
movement of the population.
States, in addition to Nebraska,
losing a seat are: Arkansas, Illi
nois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Ohio,
Massachusetts, Oklahoma and
Pennsylvania. Those gaining a
seat were: Arizona, Florida, Mich
igan, New Mexico, North Carolina,
Oregon and Tennessee, with Cali
fornia making a gain of three. The
apportionment worked out by the
census bureau will become a law
in 60 days unless congress should
decree differently by law within
that time.

It was Romeo and Juliet, ala
1940, Sunday night.
There were fair maidens on bal
conies. There were gay young
blades beneath with ladders. And
there was the element of separa
tion keeping youth apart and
thickening the plot.
Fair maidens were coeds, f.o.b.
organized house, complete with
paint jobs. Young blades wore be
pajammaed students on a hades
raising rally celebrating Nebras
ka's Rose Bowl invitation. And
it was midnight and the AWS, the
element, says no women out of
houses after the 10:30 Sunday
curfew."
Housemothers, between two fires,
the highburning desire of their
girls to join the rally and the
stringent AWS rule, gave up the
ship. And outside, the men were
insistent for men can't get along
with or without women, but Sun
day they couldn't get along with
out them.

in the girls' houses, faces that
were coeds appeared at the win
dows and on balconies. They were
dressed and ready to go, join the
celebration if only they could get
out of their houses. And soon solu
tions to the problem, in the form
of ladders appeared, seemingly
from nowhere.
And it was the great emancipa
tion as the feminine element was
liberated. The rally crowd swelled
as housecoats, fur coats, and blan
kets, all with yelling voices inside
nf them came down ladders and
out through windows to become case like this?"
part ot th 2,500 people below
them. Woman had made up her
mind to rally and nothing could
stop her.
In the majority of the houses as
searchlights played over the upper
stories pointing out the way for
escaping coeds, housemothers re
alised that it was useless and lifted,
the latches to loose the lassies.
And in those organized houses
where the housemothers stuck to
the AWS guns, the mob launched
baby "blitzkriegs" as they swarmed
about, pounding on doors and win
dows, removing screens, and mak
ing avenues of escape for the
women within.
