CONGRESS—AS SEEN
BY A NEBRASKAN
Five hundred farmers from Ohio,
many of them members of the
Farmers Union, came here yester
day to talk to representatives from
Ohio. These farmers told us that
they are here to boost the Frazier
Lemke Refinancing Bill. They said
they did not have a crop failure in
Ohio, but that the farmers are in
bad shape and need a lower rate of
interest to refinance their mort
gages. They Rre very much inter
ested in the amount of farm pro-1
ducts coming into this country
from foreign lands.
Washington, in my opinion, is a
city which the depression has not
visited. Washington people don’t
like to say that, but it is a fact
that there is no depression here.
The D. A. R. convention is to be
held next week, and delegates can
not find rooms. In fact, two ladies
from Norfolk, who are coming to
represent the state at the D. A. R.
convention have tried to get rooms
for a week. We called every hotel
in town only to be informed that
every room has been sold out until |
the middle of May. The Red Cross
convention is on right now, and the
eastern tourists are coming in by
the thousands. It is a boom town.
Mr. Parker, who is the Indian
Agent at Winnebago, Nebraska, is
in Washington conferring with
Commissioner Collier and various
officials in the Indian service. Mr.
Parker has the interests of the
Indian people at heart, and j* an
xious that the government give
some attention to the school situa
tion in Thurston county. Once there
were several agents for several
reservations in the Third Nebraska
District, but now one agent must
look after the affairs of Indians
from the tribes of the Winnebagos,
Omahas, Santees, and. the Poncas,
and everyone of them have many
problems which they bring up for
the agent to take care of.
Some of the new Congressmen
are wondering if the dinner racket
is really a racket in Washington.
Some of them claim there must be
an organization of “dinner getters
up.” Every once in a while they
get an invitation to attend a dinner
in honor of some prominent man,
and frequently that so-called prom
inent man is not present, although
speeches eulogizing that man are
made at the dinner. They charge
all the way from $1.50 to $5.00 a
plate for some of these dinners,
and the intimation is left perhaps
somebody is making a profit on
putting on dinners.
North Nebraska people like to
hear about North Nebraska, and
every once in a while some former
North Nebraskan comes in to read
the papers from home and inquire
about conditions. The latest visit
or was Gladys Rice Clarke, who is
proud to call Neligh, the pumpkin
pie town her home. She now lives
in New York and was happy to
hear that we are having a good
rain in North Nebraska.
Nebraska Congressmen continu
ally watch a big weather map of
the United States which is located
in the lobby of the House and on
which the weather man makes re
ports frequently. Dust storms are
watched carefully and the Nebras
ka delegation was jubilant today
when the weather man reported
heavy moisture all over Nebraska.
Congressmen have been informed
that the Wheeler Amendment pro
viding for lower rates of interest
for farmers will be reported out of
the committee. This provides an
interest rate of 3 Vi per cent, but
Wheeler has agreed, to modify his
amendment so that the interest
rate will go up each year from
3Vi# to 4#, and the third year to
4Vi#>, and so those fighting for
lower rates of interest feel little
relief will come from the Wheeler
Amendment.
Among the Nebraska visitors to
the Congressional office were George
O’Malley, Collector of Internal Re
venue of Nebraska, who was here
conferring with the Buerau of In
ternal Revenue.
Also, Wayne Jensen of Battle
Creek; he is the son of Fred John
son and conferring with the HOLC;
he is a cashier in the Chicago office.
Donald Allen, of Fullerton, was
also in; he says he is getting along
all right. He is employed in the
workmen’s compensation depart
ment and says he likes Washington.
C. B. Holmes, of Loretto, Ne
braska, was another visitor. He is
corn-hog field man in the Nebraska
set-up, and is here taking care of
the claims for the State of Nebras
ka.
James McGrath, of Omaha, was
also here. He is the son of Joe Mc
Grath, an old time telegraph op
erator of Omaha, and a brother of
Joe McGrath, who used to sing
over the radio.
Mrs. M. E. Pangle, of Norfolk,
and Mrs. Womedorf, also of Nor
folk, were among the first Nebras
ka delegates to the D. A. R. con
vention to arrive today.
Communications that have been
received, and that are being re
ceived, disclose that there is some
impression that the corn-hog re
duction program for 1935 is de
pendent upon further Congression
al action. The fact is that the ex
ecution of that program, this year,
is entirely an administrative mat
ter for handling by the Secretary
of Agriculture. The preceding
Congress delegated to him ,the
authority to administer such a pro
gram and his is the decision re

specting administrative details.
Congress does not need to act, fur
ther to effectuate the 1935 pro
gram. The continuity of the 1935
program is, of course, a reality
because the 1935 contracts have
already been executed and the pro
gram is so far along that the date
of limitation for the receipt of con
tracts has passed.

The
Universal Car
; » I
One name comes quickly to mind when you think of “The Universal Car.”
The description is distinctively Ford. No other car is used by so many
millions of men and women in every part of the world. Everywhere it is
the symbol of faithful service. . . .That has always been a Ford funda
mental. Something new is constantly being added in the way of extra value.
Each year the Ford has widened its appeal by increasing its usefulness
to motorists. . . .Today’s Ford V-8 is more than ever “The Universal Car”
because it encircles the needs of more people than any other Ford ever
built. It reaches out and up into new fields because it has everything
you need in a modern automobile. . . . The Ford V-8 combines fine-car
performance, comfort, safety and beauty with low first cost and low cost
of operation and up-keep. There is no other car like it. j
FORD V-8
