THE NEBRASKA
SCENE
(Continued from page 4.)
itor refused it because of a long
standing friendship for Roy Coch
ran.
Congressman Coffee of Chadron,
may enter the fight for governor as
a step in the direction of a senator
ial campaign in 11)40. Charles F.
Barth of Seward, and Ed Dugan of
Omaha are listed as possibilities.
While the political ghost of Terry
Carpenter stalks abroad in Western
Nebraska.
The republican situation is now
somewhat clarified. There is a
whirlwind of rebellion against
chronic candidates. Simmons, Gris
wold, et al., are considered out of
it. Editor Griswold has given out a
statement that indicates he will not
try for the governorship again.
Farmer Charles J. Warner of
Waverly, held a formidable lead in
the race for political leadership
until he fought the abolition of the
committee of the whole in the un
icameral legislature. He is the
author of the “double check” idea
which has not pleased the new
members who helped him put the
deal across. During the last month
Kenneth Wherry of Pawnee City,
has gained in favor among the re
publicans. In the last campaign
Wherry remained "regular.” Some
of his admirers like Clyde Milks
and Sam Klavor, both of Omaha,
insist that W'herry is unbeatable in
19118.
Karl Stefan, congressman from
the Third, and Ora S. Spillman of
Norfolk are both mentioned as can
didates for the senate on the re
publican ticket in 1940.
Ill non-partisan circles, the big
event in 1938 is the election of chief
justice of the supreme court. Harry
Palmer ran a neck and neck race
with Chief Justice Goss five years
ago. Now the younger set in legal
circles are talking. Candidates
mentioned are ex-United States
District Attorney C. E. Sandall of
York, and Legislator Charles Dafoe
of Teeumseh.
Rural public j>owei districts met
in Lincoln last week and formed a
stat<- association, agreed on legis
lation, and tentatively considered
spending 1 Vz per cent of income
with the weekly press after a cer
tain period. Private companies
have put on several thousand farm
er customers in the last few months.
The private power companies, al
ways generous advertisers with the
weeklies have increased their ad
vertising budgets for 11*37 under
the stimulus of threatened com
petition from rurals.
The beautiful tower of the Ne
braska state capitol is to be iighted
at night, as was intended in the
original plans, if the bill intro
duced by Senator John Comstock
is passed, and it seems likely that
it will be, as its author claims that
fifteen senators have already given
their endorsement to the measure.
Provision is made in the bill for
either a beacon light at the apex
of the tower, or for flood lights, and
an appropriation of $10,000 is
a^ked for.
NATIONAL AFFAIRS
(Continued from page 5.)
"It would be a serious error, if not
a fatal mistake, regarding these
questions touching the integrity of
the Constitution and the independ
ence of the court as party ques
tions or to seek to treat them as
such. If these are not govern
mental questions of concern to all
people regardless of party, then
there are no such questions. There
are always those whose minds rise
no higher than the level of party
advantage who may contend these
matters may be made party ques
tions. But I believe them to be
small in number and far more dim
inutive in influence. To assume, or
to undertake to make it appear,
especially in the light of American
history, that any political party is
the keeper of these heirlooms of
democracy is too egregious even
for the credulity of a political
campaign.”
There will be attempts in this
Congress, and probably successful
ones, to re-enact in some modified
form the NRA which wag declared
unconstitutional by a unanimous
vote in the Supreme Court. Furth
er efforts to assure its “constitu
tionality" and that of other law's
of doubtful validity will be made by
seeking to curtail the powers of
the Supreme Court, requiring a
two-thirds or unanimous vote of
the court for declaring a law uncon
stitutional, increasing the number
of judges on the court or in some
other fashion.
The fundamental questions in
volved, as Senator Borah points
out, are too serious for partisan
consideration and should be viewed
in the broad light of the future wel
fare of the American people.
Afte*r all, if our fundamental law
is to be changed there is only one
way to do this—by submitting the
question to the people of the entire
country in the form of a proposed
amendment. Senator Borah did
well to quote from Washington’s
farewell address : “If in the opin
ion of the people the distribution
or modification of the constitution
al powrer be in any particular
wrong, let it be corrected by an
amendment in the way the Consti
tution designates—but let there be
no change by usurpation.”
Economic Highlights
The average citizen has heard
relatively little of foreign affairs
lately. Events at home—the elec
tion, the convening of congress, the
strikes, the unprecedented floods in
the Middle West and South have
taken all his attention.
\ct the foreign situation has
grown steadily more menacing.
In Spain, for example, a civil
war is going on. Everyone knows
that. What everyone doesn’t know
is that a general European war, on
a small scale, is likewise going on
in Spain. All the major nations
have paid lip service to the cause
of neutrality in Spanish affairs—
but the fact remains, according to
every fact-finding newspaperman
who has returned from the Spanish
battlefronts, that several Europ
ean nations have troops actively
engaged in Spanish battles, are
supplying one side or the other
with airplanes, rifles, cannon, am
unition and food. For instance,
when the rebellion began, a rebel
leader Franco had almost no tanks
—now he has great numbers of the
most up-to-date type. And the
loyalists had no air force worthy of
the name—now they have a con
siderable number of fairly modern,
well-armed ships.
Principal participating nations
are Russia. Germany, Italy and
France. Germany and Italy side
with the rebels, who are Facistic in
tendency and purpose. Russia and
France side with the loyalists, who
include Communistis, Socialists,
Syndicalists and Republicans.
To what extent are these foreign
nations taking an active interest in
Spain ? Vivid answer is supplied
by Major A1 Williams, famous rac
ing pilot, who recently made a
European tour for the purpose of
evaluing Europe’s air armadas. Ac
cording to Major Williams, “One
pilot, who had served in the rebel
army, told me it was getting tough
for a native to find something to
do in that civil wrar. Russia, Ger
many, Italy and France had all but
taken it over for a warming-up
session of their new war machines.’’
Finally, why are these nations
mixing in a civil war that, theo
retically, is none of their business?
The answer to that is two fold.
First, there is a good chance
that a loyalist victory would result
in the establishment of a commun
ist regime in Spain. Italy and
Germany, leading facist powers,
arc determined to do everything
possible to prevent that—it would
threaten their hopes for the grad
ual extension of fasicm thru all
Europe, By the same token, a
rebel victory would be followed by
a facist Spanish government, as
General Franco has said. And
France and Russia feel that if that
happened, they would be put in
great danger, inasmuch as they
would be surrounded by unfriendly
nations.
The second j)hase of the answer
is given by intimation in the quota
tion from Major Williams, The
chatter of diplomats to the con
trary, it is a reasonable assumption
that Europe would be at war now
if the antagonistic powers were not
held back by fear of each other’s
possible strength. It is no secret
that Germany would attack France
tomorrow, if she were confident she
could win—and that France would
do the same thing, given the same
assurance. Civil war in Spain is
providing these powers with a
chance to try out their fighting
equipment—and General Staffs are
watching with unabated interest.
This “international civil war”
has killed thousands of Spaniards.
It has laid Spain waste. And it is
perhaps preparing the way toward
the most sanguinary general con
flict in wrorld history. Today all
Europe is an armed camp—and its
weapons are infinitely greater both
in number and potential destruc
tiveness than before the World
War. It is very possible that if
one of the powers becomes satisfied
that the “tests” made in Spain
show it to be superior to a neigh
boring unfriendly power, the blow
otf will come with breath taking
suddenness.
So far as America is concerned,
the State Department obviously
realizes the dangers in Europe—is
seeking to formulate an equitable
and workable neutrality policy.
There is a gre£jt, deal of debate
going on among those with differ
ent views. It seems certain that
the President will be given wide
discretionary powers in dealing
with foreign crises. It also seems
certain that tlie old doctrine, dram
atized by Wilson, of “freedom of
the seas” will be dropped, in the
hope of keeping ,ys out of conflict.

It Hits never occurred before in auto
mobile history that 25 million cars of
one make, bearing one name, have
been manufactured under one man
agement. The 25,000,000th Ford car
rolled off the Ford Rouge Plant pro
duction line on January 18, 1937.
25 million cars since 1903 . . . more
than one-third of all the cars ever
built . . . enough cars to transport the
entire population of the United States.
The figures renresent a remarkable
contribution to the social welfare, the
industrial stability and the general
progress of our country.
People respect Ford efficiency. They
know Ford uses fine materials, the
best workmanship at good wages, the
most exact precision measurements.
They know these things are passed
along to purchasers in the form of
extra value. Naturally, they like to
do business with such a company.
That is the only reason it has been
required to produce 25 million cars.

have every right to. The experience

The 1937 Ford V-8 combines ad
