THE NEBRASKA SCENE and democratic parties certain law offices frame the platforms to be adopted in the post-primary party conventions. While the voters seldom know what these platforms contain and the conventions are held after the candidates are select ed at the primaries, the bunk in the platforms become ballyhoo for the legislative session. The party managers, failing to install the old convention setup during the last session, will make another try in 1939. The general defensive tactics of the unicameralists will be based on higher salaries for the legislators, an iron-clad anti-lobby law, and a general defense of the non-partisan feature. The personal records of the leg islators will be compiled and the members given ratings based on 100 per cent. These ratings will be discussed openly in the cam paign, should a number of the pre sent members seek office. Inside gossip in unicameral ranks indicates that only 8 or 9 of the members of the present session have any chance of reelection. Legislator Norton claims fourteen progressives whfl ought to be re turned. All the setups discard the present members from Lancaster and Douglas counties. Governor Cochran has given out mild criticisms of the unicameral. There are indications that he may seek a third term. Terry Carpen ter is already in the field. There is sentiment for John N. Norton as a democratic candidate, and a growing demand for Senator Charles A. Defoe. Attorneys of the state, however, are talking of ju dicial honors for Dafoe. Dr. A. P. Fitzsimmons of Tecumseh is being discussed as a possible candidate for the governorship, and also as a likflly candidate for congress, if Congressman Luckey should not staunchly support the President.. The republican gubernatorial sit uation is not attracting the atten tion it deserves. Speaker Warner a logical candidate for the nomina tion, got entangled in the commit tee of the whole scrap. In this mixup he alienated the support of the progressives. William Madgett of Hastings, probably will not take any part in the 1938 scrap. The attitude of 0. S. Spillman of Nor folk is not known. Amos Thomas of Omaha, president of the legisla tive council, is a possibility in War ner's place. Kenneth Wherry of Pawnee City, is really the man who is gaining strength as the possible republican nominee. He recently assailed Sec retary Banning of the department of agriculture on the matter of gas oline tax collections. Wherry in sisted on no shrinkage in the cash collections. He came out of the fray with Banning’s scalp. Wherry is backed by Sam Klaver of Omaha, one of the shrewdest political organizers in the state. Should Wherry be a candidate, nothing can defeat him in Douglas county. He carried th* county in 1932. During the la^t two years his posi tion in the Metropolis has been strengthened.. Bids on about $1,100,000 worth of highway construction and mainten ance are beihg tabulated by the state highway department. A bridge in Keith county is included, three hard surfaced projects, and about 128 miles of grading in var ious parts of the state.
