Plenty of Pheasants If
You Know Where To Go
Montana Jack Sullivan and James
F. O’Donnell went out last Sunday
and within a brief time killed the
limit of pheasants while hundreds
of strangers in high powered cars
and equipped with fine guns found
nothing, or, at most, one or two
birds.
“Those fellows who come in
here,” O’Donnell said,, “make a
grave mistake in not contacting
someone living here, before the
season opens. It’s like this; Sul
livan and myself, as kids, hunted
this entire section of country and
we know it like a book. We should
and do go out and easily get our
allotment.

his time speeding from one cover
to another, likely combing those
barren of birds and soon it is time
for him to go home or to his hotel.
If these men only would properly
prepare for the season before it
opens,connect with a native or two,
find the pheasant laden covers,
there would be different stories
when they go home. As it is, there
must have been a great number
disappointed.”
Sullivan said he and O’Donnell
had a great laugh at those in cars,
hundreds of them whizzing on
every side road in quest of the
game birds. One place looked as
good as another so they pressed on
the gas and were “hunting" pheas
ants in Holt county.
“The woods, fields and weeds are
full of pheasants,” Sullivan said,
“and the faintest road last Sunday
was a race course. There are plenty
of birds here but it takes a native
to find them. A stranger cannot
come in here and in one day raise a
family and become an early settler,
and he no more can come in and
fill his bag with pheasants in one
or even several days.
“Another thing we noticed is
that vegetation this fall is very
rank and a hunter must work hard.
We used a dog and found that
helped considerably.
“Last fall there were no weeds
and it was easy to flush pheasants,
easy to shoot them and easy to find
dead birds on the ground.
“As far as O’Donnell and I are
concerned you may say there are
lots of pheasants in this part of
Holt county.”
Rain Sunday afternoon chattered
teeth of hunters but aided those
having dogs, making the pheasant
scent much easier for the dogs to
define.

000 a year if personal taxes are
paid 100 per cent. If tax collec
tions run around 60 per cent as at
present, the levy will account for
little more than half a million dol
lars.
Still another proposed law com
ing under the work-relief category,
applies to all cities and villages,
allowing them to eondem land nec
esssary for the elimination of grade
crossings. It also would give them
power to appraise damages and
pay them by means of a bond is
sue, or otherwise, while the state
highway department would be
authorized to assist municipalities
in planning and constructing such
works, without or with the aid of
the federal government.
An attempt will be made to
patch up H. R. 70 and H. R. 90,
passed by the last legislature and
designed to require all car owners
to pay taxes on their vehicles be
fore they can secure licenses, thus
stepping up tax collections in the
state. The laws are unenforceable
at present, the governor says.
Word has come from Washing
ton to tha state roads and irriga
tion department that a field study
is to be made in the state by a
federal representative, M. C. Swan
son of the REA, to determine just
how far rural electrification can go
in the near future. Applications
for $13,229,230 of such projects
have been made by groups of Ne
braskans.
Creation of a state power auth
ority in Nebraska, patterened after
the TVA, and utilizing a gigantic
power hookup taking in the Tri
county, Platte and Loup river pow
er projects, envisioned for the
Cornhusker state.
Recent development would in
dicate, however, that this vision
will have a few obstacles to over
come before every Nebraska farm
becomes a minature Broadway
where bright-lights are concerned.
The federal government is not
yet convinced that Nebraska can
double its electrical consumption in
a year’s time, as is contemplated in
the applications for rural electrifi
cation projects.
The proposed projects that will
be studied by the federal represent
ative include:
Southeastern Nebraska power
district, Beatrice, $575,000 applied
for.
Eastern Nebraska power district,
taking in most of the state’s south
eastern corner, $2,500,000.
Lancaster county power district,
$885,012.
Norris power district, Wilber,
$1,693,500.
Southern Nebraska power dis
trict, Hastings, $7,325,718.
Polk county power district,
$250,000.
It is understood at Lincoln that
the large projects have little chance
of getting government approval at
this time, altho the outlook is
brighter for smaller projects.
According to the early tren i, tax
returns in Nebraska will be greater
this year than for 1934. Colfax,
the first county to make its final
complete report to the state tax
commissioner, will have a tax yield
of $328,614, compared with $320,
227 in 1934.
Butler county’s total will be
$420,717 this year, as against
$409,905 levied in 1934. Valley
county shows a $285,775 total, or
nearly $8,000 more than 1934 de

With one rift in the statehouse
family (over crop reports) just re
cently ironed out, W. J. Williams,
of Lincoln, one of the special com
mittee investigating the state bank
ing department’s receivership div
ision under a special legislative ap
propriation made available by the
last session, has poked up the fire
over in another corner of the
capitol.
State Auditor Ayres and several
other members of the official fam
ily have held that the investigation
has been little more than a waste
of time and money. They want the
probe terminated in the near fu
ture.
Not so, Mr. Williams, who, in
cidentally, loses a good job when
the investigation quits.
"State officials and employes of
the bank receivership division are
making attempts to tie my hands
and even resort to intimidation to
prevent me from pursuing inquiry
into the acts of officials and em
ployes of the department,’’ Wil
liams declared in a statement to
the press last week.
Williams insists that there are a
number of things about the receiv
ership division that need airing,
especially as regards the alleged
solicitation of political “slush”
funds from employes by higher
ups, the employing of relatives, and
connections between erstwhile of
ficials and banking institutions.
