Lowell At the Nebraska legislature swings well into its second week of its special session, little has been accomplished toward a defi nite set-up in the social security bills. The cost of Goverinor Cochran’s social security program in state funds until February 28, 1937, has been established officially at $3, 803,000. This includes old age pensions, direct relief, various child welfare activities, and supple mental blind assistance. The only phase of the program not in cluded in the figure is an increase in the regular state appropriation for vocational education. Estimates are made on the pro gram’s cost as worked out by the finance committee of the house of representativs with the advice of Milton C. Murphy, assistant attor ney, are included: Old age pen sion, $2,400,000; direct relief,$788, 000; care of dependent children, $600,000; care of crippled children, $25,000; supplemental blind assist ance, $50,000; child welfare, $40, 000. The most apt sources of revenue for this money are: 1 cent gaso line tax collected March 1, 1935, to September 20, 1936—$1,113,000; new 1 cent gasoline tax from De cember 1, 1935, to June 30, 1936— $1,130,000; beer and liquor taxes— $1,000,000; per capita tax (includ ing 500 thousand dollars from a $2 tax on persons between 21 and 50 and 60 thousand dollar balance from 50 cents tax under 1933 law)' —$560,100. The special one cent per gallon gasoline tax bill has already been ! passed by both houses and has I been sent to the governor as the • first of his own bills to be present ed to him for his signature of ap proval. tAlhough Governor Cochran has reiterated his assertion that the 1-cent gasoline tax will be adequ ate for the social security plan, other bills are being proposed for revenue among which is a pari mutual tax. This bill is S. F. 9, by McGowan, imposing a two per cent tax on parimutual betting for old age assistance fund, and des pite some opposition has been en dorsed by the senate and advanced to the third reading. The old age pension setup leans to the five per cent plan. A per son having one thousand dollar’s worth of property, for example, would be considered to be receiving $50 a year or $4.17 per month in come from it, and subtracting it from the proposed $30 per month income, he could not receive a pen sion of more than $25.83 per month. Other income, however, might be deducted, and if the funds were in sufficient, his pension would be scaled down accordingly. The Townsend old age pension plan, which proposes to pay all per sons 65 years of age two hundred dollars a month was voted down in the house of representatives by a vote of 49 to 20. Opponents of the resolution frankly labeled the Townsend plan as fantastic, impos sible, and a “cruel device for build ing up false hopes in the hearts of the aged.” The voice of Governor R. L. Cochran was added to the rising tide of protest against discontinu ation of direct federal relief to Ne braska. Cochran declared that he would make an appeal to federal relief officials for an additional $250,000 for November needs and ask a $500,000 grant for December, the month when Harry L. Hopkins national relief head, has said Ne braska would be cut off the dole. With only $250,000 allotted to Ne braska so far in November, accord ing to Administrator Witte little can be done to alleviate suffering on $15 per family. GALENA LUMBER COMPANY Phone 74 SOME surprising new discoveries have been made recently about what it takes to start a cold auto mobile engine—start it and warm it up to fall, smooth drive-away power faster. For many years Standard's research staff has been at work on this problem. Not satisfied with laboratory experiment alone, they have conducted thousands of road tests—in all sorts of temperatures—using all sorts of gasoline formulas. And now they come forward with a motor fuel that is different, in many respects, from any that ever went into a gasoline tank before—a motor fuel which em bodies all these newly discovered principles—which really is quick starting without the drawbacks that so often go with that quality. This new Standard Red Crown starts at the first flash of the spark. But on top of that it has fully 35% faster warm-up speed in zero temperatures. Actually it will get your car started and under way as quickly and easily in mid-winter as in mid-summerj You’ll be free from vapor lock. You'll gel better winter mileage. Try it!
