AS SEEN
BY A NEBRASKAN
By Karl Stefan
This afternoon the president held
a press conference and told the
newspapermen that $1,137,000,000
would have to be raised in taxes to
carry out the present program.
That word reached the hill and was
discussed by the leaders with great
interest. They began searching for
a way to raise at least $786,000,000
a year in additional taxes for the
next three years and $620,000,000
a year thereafter. The joker in all
of this is that the president has
made no suggestion as to how this
money is to be raised. He divided
the totals in sections, the bonus,
substitute taxes in place of the pro
cessing tax, payment for opera
tions of the new farm legislation,
and reimbursement taxes to cover
what processing taxes would have
brought in during the fiscal year
1036. The old timers are open in
their statements that there is no
other way of raising money in this
country except from the taxpayers.
Reports that congress may ad
journ early brings lobbyists out in
larger numbers and working in re
lays. Congressional offices are be
I ing visited by nearly everybody
that is interested for or against
some piece of legislation. With the
jcampaign year at hand, the ad
\ ance men who sell advertising,
photographs and nearly anything
for campaigns, call on members
who are out after office again. The
big sugar lobby is here with pow
erful workers. Many of these
lobbyists have come half way
around, the world to place their
argument before members. Lob
byists of other big business and
various organizations are here in
large numbers. They work on
members by telephone, messenger,
in the hotel lobbies and in the
house office;. Heads of both polit
ical parties are almost as active as
the lobbyists of various industry.
During munitions investigations,
one witness who sold amunition in
South America, told the committee
that he bought cast off machine
guns once owned by our govern
ment for a few cents apiece and
now the attorney general has
ordered a special investigation to
ascertain if any machine guns sold
as “junk” are falling into the
hands of gangsters and others. The
bureau of investigation is going
to conduct a thorough inquiry as a
result of the testimonies recently
given before the senate. Military
officials have no information on
whether these "junk” guns are be
ing put to improper use after sale
by the department. The attorney
general has ordered the bureau of
investigation to seek “the findings
of facts.” -
While that revolution is going on^
in Tokio six Japenese naval officers
were inspecting our naval school
at Annapolis. They were escorted
around the grounds by officers in

this country are among the most
inquisitive visitors we have. It is
a well known fact that foreign
military and naval attaches have

Electricity
Our electric system must be designed to carry the
maximum annual load which occurs during the
winter months. This load drops off sharply in the
spring due to changing seasons with the result that
we have considerable excess capacity in plants and
lines in the period from March to June. Therefore,
during these four months we propose to pass on to
our customers the use of this excess capacity, by
selling all electricity over and above last year’s
bill, plus 5%, at 2c per K. W. H. Each month’s
bill in 1936 will be compared with the correspond*
ing month in 1935 to determine the amount to be
billed at 2c.
EXAMPLE:
If your April 1935 bill was $3.00, then all
electricity used over and above $3.15 ($3.00
plus 5%) during March 1936, will be billed at
2c per K.W.H.
This new low rate shall apply to residence and com
mercial lighting, residence and commercial optional
customers and rural customers on bills designated
April, May, June and July.

fortifications, which is usually de

naval attaches in other countries.
While army and navy are prohib
ited from saying how they feel,
the time has come for Americans
to become a little secret about their
information. The foreign army and
navy men have access to the con
gressional records, can secure cop
ies of all hearings of the military
and navy committees of the house
and senate and pretty well know
what the army and navy are doing
all the time. One official remarked.
“It’s hard for me to get any in
formation about our army and
navy. I guess I’ll go up to the
Japanese embassy and see if I can
get more detailed information.”
