Earle G. Keed, agricultural agent
for the Burlington, told of the work
the railroad is doing in encouraging
better potato production. This city, he
said, may have some tu (Terences with

ductions are impossible under present
operating costs and that wages must
be cut. Hoover is hopeful an agree
ment can be reached through the con
ference to cut rates and wages simultaneously.
The conference admittedly is enter
ing its "critical period.
Re
ty on the map as a potato country. Jn
our dry land seed potatoes, he said,
.we have a big opportunity. Thee is
a tremendous demand for them, and
' 1,500 cars could be sold in the sta.e tf
j Texas alone. The demand is also
large from Lusk, Wyo.
Business men, the speaker said,

Ins that the march back toward pros- th ovcl.,ook the development of live-'

various groups of laborers to accept
wage cuts.
Organized labor in conferences held
during the last week asserted capital
has not shaken otf the '"war profiteer
's habit." i'rite cuts can be made
without Teducing wages, labor holds.
Hence, interest at the conference is
centered on whether 3 rerominenda-
men present thut the Burlington would
always be ready to co-operate with Al
liance in furthering the interests of
the county.
l.eo C. Stuhr, state secretary for
agriculture, said that his department
was not only interested in the develop

certain, according to rail union heads!
at Chicago. i
The railroad union chiefs met here
to consider the vote of their members
favoring a walkout rather than ac-
eepting the 12 per cent reduction in I
wages made last July. The official I
count of the ballot was completed
Monday and was made to favor a
strike bv a lartre majority. I
According to one of the big four
union leaders, the strike vote was not
taken with the purpose of calling a
walkout as a result of the reduction
of last July, but to forestall and furth
er cuts. The union heads believed
if they had a vote of the men favor-1
ing a strike which could be flashed
at any time, the railroad executives
would go slow in asking any further
decreases.
Railroad executives of the country
meeting in Chicago the latter part of
this week are expected to decide to
petition the railroad labor board for
another wage reduction. At the time
they will sugjest to the interstate
commission nn adjournment down
ward in freight rates.

ures showing that Nebraska was t.'rir
tecnth in acreage and production of
spuds, and that its position has been
growing better every year. This year,
out of a total crop of 345 million
bushels in ths United States, Nebras
ka will produce 7 million bushels,
over 4,000 carloads. He said , that
compulsory inspection had accomplish
ed a great deal, and told of the duties
of the fifty inspectors under his de
partment. Alliance last year shipped
300 loads of potatoes; this year i00
carloads will be shipped.
Box Butte county leads the world in
the production of seed potatoes, the
secretary said. There is no other part
of the country that can successfully
compete with it. He spoke in favor
of the production of certified seed, and
offered the facilities of his department
at any time it could be of use.
W. H. Farley, National Cash Regist
er .company lecturer, called attention
to the fact that it is unwise for ur.y
community to lay too great stress
upon any one crop. The spud crop
was important, he declared, but called
attention to the fact that there wi s
a big opportunity in other lines, annii'(
which he named poultry and eggs,
quoting figures to show the magnitude
of this business, which, he said, vns
largely handled by women and child
ren and was only a side line.
Thomas F. Neighbors of Bridgeport
told ofthe activities of Commissioner
George Carrell in his city. He said
the Hemingford man was working for
a road from Kimball to Scottsblutr to
Bayard ami thence to Hemingford,
thus defeating the North Star route,
but that Bayard wasn't interested.
That city, he said, is for the Bridgeport-Alliance
road.
CARRELL DOING BEST TO
jr. MAKE THREATS GOOD
(Continued from page 1)
another route divert Alliance's cher
ished tourist travel.
Anyhow, here's the dope on the lat
est plan to get even with the Alliance
chamber of commerce. Teh exchange
says:
"County Commissioner George Car
rell, of Box Butte county, was in Bay
ard last week discussing a north and
south road proposition with local busi
ness men.
j "The route for the proposed govern
ment aid road, as planned by Mr. Car-
J rell, is from Potter .through Redding
ton and Bayard, north through Box
Butte county following the Hashman
road, which has, been partially im
proved by government aid funds.
While this road does not run through
Scottsbluff of Alliance, Mr. Carrell
! claims that it runs through a large
farming distinct and will give the
'farmers an improved highway for the
purpose of marketing their produce.
Those who have investigated the
matter say that the Bayard-Reding-ton
route is a practical one, as it fur
nishes a substantial bed for a perman
ent road, and some work has already
been done on the road between these
two places, which would provide a sat
isfactory highway at a minimum cost.
"Probably the activity in connection
with this proposed highway is the out
growth of a road meeting held at
Hemingford a short time ago, when
the business men of that place and
those of Alliance met for the purpose
of deciding upon a route for a state
aid road through that county. From
reports it was an especially stormy
session, resulting in bo decision of the
road question, and made wider breach
between the county commissioners,
the Hemingford business men and the
Alliance men.
"An Alliance speaker stated the po
sition of that city as strongly favor
ing a road that follows the railroad,
as that seemed to them the most sat
isfactory route, being in their opin-
1 : i . . 1 . ,1:,. . . 1

through Alliance and Hemingford in
to the northwest. The county commis
sioners appear to prefer a road desig
nated as the Hashman road, which
runs several miles to the west of Al
liance. The commissioners and the
city of Alliance have been at logger
heads for several months, when it was
claimed that the commissioners prom
ised to designate three routes as preferable-
and leave it entirely to the
state engineer to decide which route
should be chosen, but failed to do so.
This deadlock prevents state aid on,
either of the highways, as the state
department does not act until satisfac
tory road has been decided upon."
