Urge Truckers To Give Lift To 4H Clubbers Truckers, salesmen, county ex tension workers and all other per sons driving to Omaha on bus iness October 5th or 6th are urged by Harry B. Coffee, chairman of Ak-Sar-Ben’s sixteenth annual livestock show, to give a lift to 4-H club members going to Oma ha to compete in, the show. “The OPA suggests this step as a way for club members to attend the annual livestock exposition, which will be held at the Union Stockyards on October 6, 7 and 8,” Coffee said. “Of course, ev ery car owner has 120 miles per month personal driving allowance which can be saved up for this purpose, if desired. However, the method suggested by OPA would provide the necessary transporta tion for hundreds of boys and girls who plan to exhibit at the show, and at the same time would save much gasoline for the use of our armed forces.” Exhibitors were asked by Cof fee to ship their cattle and hogs to arrive on Tuesday, October 5th, the day before the competition opens, if possible. He stated that the horse barns, where the show will be held, will be otherwise occupied previous to that date. However, any show stock which comes in prior to Tuesday will be accepted and given temporary stabling elsewhere untM the show barns are ready. All stock must be in place by 8 o’clock Wednes day morning, October 6th, when the judging starts. The new ceiling on live hog prices does not apply to 4-H club show stock when sold at auction in connection with the show, OPA has advised Ak-Sar-Ben. This rul ing has given encouragement to Junior Chamber of Commerce members, who are raising a fund from Omaha business interests to provide additional rewards thru special prized and higher sale pri ces for 4-H exhibitors. Any per son can buy the beef or hogs on hoof, paying whatever they please at the 4-H sale, the OPA said, but if they want the dressed carcas ses, the buyer must put up the necessary ration points. Thus, slaughterers, retailers and pre parers of meals are expected to be good bidders for the animals going through the Ak-Sar-Ben sale.
