TO THE ORIENT
WITH CONGRESS
(Continued from page 1.)
second—whom he married in 1913
comes from Batangas province and
helps him entertain. Neither
Aguinaldo nor his wife speak Eng
lish. Together they talk Tagolog.
Otherwise they speak Spanish.
Aguinaldo lives on a pension and
“gifts” from “friends.” The pen
sion is paid by the Philippine gov
ernment and is said to amount to
around $10,000 per annum.
Is Manuel Quezon, the new Phil
ippine president and his followers
afraid of Aguinaldo? That is a
question which has been asked
many times during the visit of this
congressional party. Here are some
facts: When Quezon was entertain
ing members of congress some
nights ago we wandered thru his
spacious gardens and found Con
stabulary men armed to the teeth
in every nook and corner. There
was at least a full company of
these soldiers on guard. It was ob
vious that the leader was well
guarded against something.
The Nebraska congressman rode
back from Quezon’s home in Quez
on’s car. It was not steel armored
and there was no bodyguard.
But — here is an unconfirmed
story which has been told to nearly
every member of the party: The
night the party was being enter
tained at Quezon’s home there was
a mass meeting at Aguinaldo’s
home in Cavite province. This
story was to the effect that several
volunteers had promised to assas
sinate Quezon; that secret service
men attended the meeting and had
confirmed reports to Quezon who
in turn took the matter up with
Governor General Murphy, request
ing Murphy to stop Aguinaldo.
Murphy called Aguinaldo to hi« of
fice. He asked Aguinaldo if he
planned to stop the inauguration
ceremonies. Aguinaldo after call
ing Quezon many uukuui names
replied that the inauguration would
be stopped and that he had fiO.OOO
men to help him stop it. He claim
ed Quezon had stolen the election.
After much conferring it is re
ported Aguinaldo promised not to
interfere.
All members of the party agree
that Quezon is going to have a
hard time keeping the leaders of
various political factions satisfied.
Many of them want good political
jobs. Five of them demand to be
made commissioners to the United
States. Half a dozen of them have
started various “movements” to
get mass support; two are starting
a “youth's movement." College
professors say they want nothing
to do with politics. They tell mem
bers of this party that “politics in
the Orient is a profession.” Mem
I hers of the party are agreed that
Philippine independence depends
on what happens in the next ten
years. If the Filipinos can make
good at their practicing how to run
a republic they get their independ.

Notes From China
Chinese newspapers never print
news as Americans like to read it.
It is really not correct news but it
is colored for home consumption.
Talking to a Chinese merchant
j about the Chinese Hag—he tells us
that the average Chinese does not
care what flag flies over him so
[ long as he and his clan can go un
oppressed.

Why can’t Americans leave China
alone and go home? The answer
here is: “Americans have about
three hundred million dollars in
vested in China. The missionary
investment is about 80 millions.”
There are uo peasants or merch
ants in China not preyed upon
either by armies or bandits and 90
per cent are preyed upon by .both.
Take away foreign soldiers, war
ships and there will be massacres
and looting. Missionaries have
been here for years. Some sug
gest that these missionaries go
home and turn over to the Chinese
they have educated their property
aftd programs. Those here for
years know what would happen.
There is as much slavery in China
today as there was in the United
States before the civil war.
A prohibited parade of fanatics
is met in one village. These are
“paid" and “professional” fanatics
who drive spikes thru the fleshy
part of their arms onto which are
tied carved statuetes and emblems
which help drive away the devil.
Hard to get good American food
in China. Members of the party
usually order ham and eggs. By
the way, there is no such food as
Chop Suey or Chow Mein in China.
Not like you get in America. Chin
ese tell us these are American
dishes and not Chinese dishes.
Chinese don’t eat Chop Suey or
Chow Mein as we know it.
Seattle. The congressional party

There is a great scramble to get

THE NEBRASKA
SCENE
(Continued from page 1.)
of public funds or property are
still working under bonds furnish
ed by private companies or signed
by individual guarantors.
Nebraska’s political pot is ex
pected to start boiling a bit more
lively with the turn of the year.
Filings of candidates for office are
expected to increase, though only
a few aspirants for state offices on
party tickets are formally entered
thus far for the April primaries.
There still remains a period of ten
weeks for getting nomination pap
ers into the secretary of state’s
office.
Seventy-seven Nebraskans, in
cluding two women, have already
filed for state positions to be open
in 1937, a check-up here reevaled,
but there are 97 offices open for the
primary election on April 14. Fifty
one candidates paid their $10 fees
-,
to seek a place in the first uni
cameral legislature of 43 members.
There are no filings, however, from
14 of the 43 districts. Eleven have
filed for district court judgeships.
Thirty-five district judges will be
elected.
Among the early entrants were
Stanley Wright, republican, of Al
liance. O. S. Spillman, republican,
of Norfolk, and Roland Rodman,
republican of Kimball, all for gov
ernor. Spillman and Rodman have
not accepted, nor indicated whether
they would accept, petitions filed
for them. Henry C. Luckey, demo
crat, of Lincoln, incumbent from
the First district in Congress, has
filed for re-nomination.
A ten-point change in the political
status of Nebraska is shown in a
recent survey of the states accord
ing to whether they are definitely
democratic. In 1932, the poll, pub
lished in the Lincoln newspaper,
showed that Nebraska was 64 per
cent democratic of the majority
party vote. Today, however, this
has dropped, the poll says, to 54
per cent or a change of ten points.
Nebraska has seven electoral votes.
Twenty-seven states are listed in
the table of states definitely demo
cratic.
Taxes levied in 1935 for mun
icipal and school purposes, and the
combined tax rate for all purposes,
in each of the 525 incorporated
cities and villages of Nebraska, are
listed in a pamphlet compiled by
State Tax Commissioner Smith.
The towns of each county are
grouped together in this publica
tion, the first of its kind ever is
sued by the commissioner’s office.
Gering,the county seat of Scotts
blutf county, again receives the dis
tinction of having the highest rate
of total taxation in Nebraska. Its
combined levies for 1935 are 73.3
mills, estimated to produce $67,486
of revenue. The population of Ger
ing by the 1930 census was 2,531,
making the average tax about $27
for each man, woman and child.
The city of Scottsbluff, in the same
county, has a total tax rate of
65.8 mills.
That public records are open to
challenge was the claim made re
cently by attorneys for the de
fendants in the Bass bond premium
suit before the Supreme court. The
brief supports the appeal from a
Lancaster county district court
judgment of $56,338 awarded the
state board of educational lands
and funds against former State
Treasurer T. W. Bass, his bond
clerk, W. C. Oelkers, their sureties,
the Fidelity* Deposit Co. of Mary
land and the Columbia Casualty
Co. and the Wachob, Bender & Co.,
Omaha bond house. The judgment
runs ultimately against the bond
house.
Joe Crumrine, of Gering, plumb
er and city councilman, has filed,
for the legislature from Scottsbluf?
county. He is a democrat.

day and since then we have had
balmy weather.
HELLO!
We’re back in O’Neill and
glad of it! We’re back in
the gas business and glad of
that too. even though we
know we are the traditionally
unwanted fourteenth child.
Tradition also said the four
teenth was either the bright
est or dumbest of the bunch.
We’reaccepting the latter but
it’s fun to be dumb when you
don’t know any better.
A few months ago when
we found ourselves again in
possession of our bulk gas
plant we began scouting 1
around to find an adequate
outlet for our products. But
finally decided like “Farmer
Jones,” if you want a job
done, do it yourself. So, we
are here.
We have looked over the
field of Independent refineries
and feel the Globe Products
are most outstanding. Not
only because they are one of
the largest independents, but
because their plant—recently
installed at McPherson, Kans.
—has all the latest improve
ments in equipment, includ
ing multi-coil cracking plant,
vapor recovery and stabilizer
unit, and a Lockman treating
unit, the first to be installed
in the mid-continent field.
All bespeak for the Globe
people a fine uniform product
we are proud to offer for
your approval.
So, if you should wander
away, clear out on the west
side, find yourself out of gas
and lost, we’ll be tickled to
death to take care of your
needs and show you the way
back home.
