PETITION To the Honorable County Board of Supervisors, Holt County: We, the undersigned, freeholders living within five miles of the Stuart Swun 1-Rke county road, do hereby respectfully petition your honorable body to change the location of that liortion of said road now running south through Township 28-15 U> a point about one-fourth of a mile east of the northwest corner of Section 17 in Township 27-15, to the following: Commencing on the correction line at tile northwest corner of Section 6, Twp. 28-15, running south eight miles to the northwest corner of Section 18, Twp. 27-15; thence running east about a mile and a quarter along the north side of Seetions 18 and 17, Twp. 27-15, to u point intersecting the Siuart-Swan Lake county road as now designated. Also to retain as a county road that portion running along the north side of Section 6, Twp. 28-15, con necting this road with the county road to Atkinson. We believe that if such a change is made it will save the county much money in construction and mainten ance because it will avoid many sand hills and lakes and affords a much better roadbed; also that it will bet ter serve many more people in this community than the road as at pres ent designated.

THE NEW MONEY NOW BEING CIRCULATED , O’Neill banks have received and are placing in circulation th new size I paper money. The bills are smaller | in size than the former, and will be ! much more convenient to handle. The new size will save the govern l ment about one and one-half million j dollars in the reduction of the cost of ! producing the money each year over j the original cost, and the new money is expected to stand considerably I more wear than the old money. It is said that the new money will be more difficult to counterfeit than the old style. Another feature is the fact that all bills of the same denom 1 ination will be of the came color and ; design and will bear the same por traits. This will be a convenience as the public becomes accustomed to these colors and designs. Raising a small bill to a higher denomination by the forging of new figures will practically be done away with as the raiser will not be able to change the ! color of the same bill to that of the higher denonmiation. !

SUMMARY OF ACCIDENTS FOR THE O WEEKS Accident statistics for Nebraska, compiled by The Nebraska Press As Motor vehicle accidents_ Other public accidents_ Employment—agricultural_ Employment—industrial___ Home accidents_ Total_ Of the 286 persons injured, 13 were permanently disabled. Drowning is the chief cause of pub lic accident deaths. About half as ' many persons were injured in public accidents this time as during the pre vious two weeks. Home accidents were responsible j for only two deaths against six dur ing the previous period and the injur- * ies decreased about 30%. Falls are the cause of half of the home injur- j ies which are divided as follows: ■ falls of children while at play, 10; ; falls on steps, 4. Persona injured by farm accidents ! increased from 20 to 26 during the ! last two weeks. They are divided as i follows: farm machinery, 13; farm i animals, 9; falls, 1; sprains and in-! fections, 3. Harvesting machinery,, horses and hot weather is a wonder- j ful combination for producing acci- j dents. While much is being done in safe ty work, three deaths and three sev ere injuries in the industrial accident ’ division emphasizes the need for still ' more comprehensive safety work in ; the field. Other industrial employ- \ ment injuries are divided as to caus- • es as follows: power machinery, 6; . falls, 3; cave-ins, 3; burn, 1, and mis Complete list of accidents which have occurred in Nebraska during the past twelve weeks that were of sociation and the Rehabiliation Divi sion of the State Department of Vo cational Education.

Oeneral Summary for Twelve Weeks Dis- Total Injuries abilities Deaths Casualties Motor vehicle accidents_ 1040 28 80 1148 Other public accidents____ 120 26 71 216 Employment, agricultural_ 97 24 12 138 Employment, industrial _ . 96 22 16 188 Home- 175 21 21 217 Total ___ 199 persons were accidentally kill ed in Nebraska during the last 12 weeks. Otf this number 30 or 15% were accidentally drowned. Know ledge of the rudiments of swimming would have saved the lives of 60% of these people. For the benefit, of those who op pose the drivers’ license law and to those who feel that other laws for traffic control cramp their style, pon der on this one. Motor vehicles caus ed 62% of the total of 1847 accident casualties in Nebraska during the last twelve weeks. These reports will afford an excel lent chance to check up on the work ings of the drivers’ license law. We plan to run a special clipping service on that law as soon as it goes into effect. * 1528 120 199 1847 The suggestion is made by one of the daily papers that the authorities should keep tab on those who are ar rested for traffic violations, and pre vent their securing drivers' licenses, f«i one instance recently a coroner’s [jury recommended that a participant in a fatal wreck not be allowed to i have a license. As a result of these reports some : towns are puting on brake test cam paigns. We may be able to set up a special classification for those places that are giving heed to the enormous number of accidents, so they can have credit for their precautions. South Dakota is planning to estab lish a service similar to this. Some national publications will soon carry stories on this campaign. iThe Judge —_A Big Fine _By-MB What *»» v«v bj/* &R»M
