TREE REQUESTS
HIT 38,000
__
Clarke-McNary Seedling
Applications May
Exceed Last Year
Eighty thousand tree seedlings
may be planted here next Spring,
according to reports from the
Holt county soil conservation dis
trict and County Agent A. Neil
Dawes.
i The county agent’s office has
already received applications for
38.000 seedlings through the
Clarke-McNary forestry fund,
and requests may exceed last
year’s mark of 46,400.
The conservation district draws
seedlings from other sources as
well.
D. E. Bowen, chairman of the
district, has indicated that inter
est is greater than in previous
years. “The greatest portions of
the seedlings that will be re
ceived here will be planted by
the district’s tree planting crew
and machine,” he said.
Bowen pointed out that the dis
trict supervisors fixed the plant
ing prices at a meeting this Week.
Prices include the cost of the
trees delivered to the farm and
planted, and the farmer is to fur
nish a man to assist with the op
eration.
Furnish Helper
The prices are as follows: 3V4C
per tree for the first thousand;
2 3-4c per tree for the second
thousand, and 2V4C per tree for
the balance. Where the farmer
furnishes the trees from other
sources such as Clark McNary or
a commercial nursery the credit
, of 3-4c per tree is deducted from
the above prices.
The supervisors point out that
a scarcity of trees at increased
cost plus the increased cost of la
bor has made it necessary to raise
the price over previous years.
The county agent’s office will
receive Clark-McNary applica
tions until the supply is exhaust
ed. Holt usually leads or ranks
near the top in the state with re
quests.
D A. Schaffer, of Stuart, has
filed the biggest single request.
He is seeking 2.300 seedlings.
The evergreens in the Clarke
McNary fund will be shipped
from the Nebraska national forest
near Halsey, and the broadleaf
seedlings will be shipped from
storage at Fremont.
Varieties include Russian mul
berry, American elm, cottonwood,
green ash, honey locust, black lo
cust, Chinese elm, Russian olive,
caragana, pondercsa, soft maple,
■* jack pine, and red cedar.

Merchants’ Day a Scramble for
Both Youngsters and Oldster:
Merchants’ day here Monday
went on record as a wild scram
ble.
The youngsters, reinforced
by a few oldsters, scrambled
for the thousand - odd para
chutes that plummeted to earth
from low-flying airplanes, and
the oldsters scrambled in the
stores for hard-to-get items
that the merchants had wang
led especially for the occasion.
Many of the parachutes bore
tickets that were redeemable
for hundreds of prizes at vari
ous stores, and claimants have
been calling for their gifts from
the moment the first para
chutes were taken into custo
dy.
The weatherman smiled on
the merchants' day idea, which
was sponsored by the Chamber
of Commerce. Many schools,
including both O’Neill public
school and St. Mary’s academy,
dismissed classes to enable the
pupils to participate in the free
for-all or watch the aerial gift
“bombardment.” Hundreds of
persons jammed the midtown
section for the .-.y* show, which
began at 2 p.m.
The combined O’Neill public
school and St. Mary’s academy
band played a street concert
prior to the “zero” hour.
Three aircraft were em
ployed for the show. They
were piloted by Harold L.
Lindberg, Zane Cole and Cliff
Adkins. Thev were confronted
with a 15-mile-per-hour wind.
Many of the stores featuring
hard-to-get merchandise re
ported land of« ice rushes.
Counters of sheets, wearing ap
parel, overalls, and other scarce
items, were emptied within a
few minutes’ time.
Some of the merchants’ day
items were shipped here from
market points by air express
in order to be made available
for the occasion.
A wind from the south
caused the airmen to spill *he
balloons near the southern edge
of the city, allowing for the
drift of the parachutes. Many
of the ’chutes landed in outly
ing portions of the city.
EX.-LT. CODAY
RECEIVES DSC
Second Highest Valor
Award Goes to
Atkinson Man
ATKINSON—The Distinguish
ed Service Cross, the Nation s
second-highest military decora
tion for valor, has been awarded
to Bernard F. Coday, of Atkin
son, who served as a first lieu
tenant in the Seventh infantry
regiment in France during World
War II.
The presentation recently was
made at Norfolk by a recruiting
officer in the presence of Coday’s
parents and a younger brother.
The deed for which Coday was
cited for his "extraordinary her
oism in action” took place on
February 22, 1945, near Guemar,
France. After leading his deci
mated platoon through a mine
field under heavy automatic fire,
Lt. Coday advanced in the assault
over a footbridge swept by cross
fire from three machineguns
Destroys Gun Crew
Reaching the Tar side, he
plunged forward, according to
the citation accompanying the
medal, firing his carbine into the
enemy positions. He destroyed a
three-man machinegun crew with
a grenade and put the other Ger
mans to flight.
Although painfully wounded,
he directed his platoon’s attack
from a prone position in the snow
until all the enemy strongpoints
in the area were destroyed.

PARTIAL ECLIPSE
MAY BE SEEN
———
Astronomers Say Moon’s
Shadow to Obscure
Part of Sun
A partial solar eclipse may be
seen here starting at about 9:40
a.m. Saturday and ending at ap
proximately 11:22 a.m. Nearly
one-third of the sun’s diameter
will be darkened by the moon’s
shadow.
The astronomers say that the
shadow will appear on the upper
edge, move across the top, and
disappear.
This may be the first eclipse
seen here since July 9, 1945.
The seven-day period ending
today (Thursday) is the first of its
kind this Fall in which no pre
cipitation has been recorded here,
Government Observer Harry
Bowen reported
“There were traces of moisture
both Wednesday and today,”
Bowen said, “but insufficient to
be measured.”
Meanwhile, the ground remains
wet due to’ melting snow, and
cornpicking operations continue
to be slowed for this reason. Most
of the corn carries moisture rang
ing from 20 to 30 percent and
most of it is too wet for cribbing.
Rural road conditions in this re
gion are not good.

based on 24-hour periods ending
at 8 a.m. daily, follows:

Safety Patrol Has Birthday;
‘Circles Globe’ 732 7 imes
Nebraska’s “traffic death
fighters”—the Nebraska safety
patrolmen—tomorrow (Friday)
will begin their tenth year.
On the last day of their ninth
year they completed the equiv
alent of their 732d trip around
the world, with a total of 18,
311,437 miles of patroling over
Nebraska highways.
Since its establishment, the
patrol has witnessed the reduc
tion in traffic fatalities over
Nebraska’s all-time high of 322
in 1937. Even though there
has been an increase of traffic
since 1937, traffic fatalities
have been below the 1937 fig
ure. The average number of
fatalities per year since 1937
is 22l. Capi. d. J. Sanders
states that the patrol doesn’t
takj> all the credit for this re
duction, but it does like to feel
that it has had a share in mak
ing Nebraskans more “safety
conscious.”
According to a ninth anniver
sary report, the patrol has had
an estimated contact with 1,
368,899 persons that use Ne
braska’s streets and highways
throueh safety meetings, driv
er’s license examinations, as
sistance to motorists, and en
forcement activities; patrolmen
have removed 68,481 accident
Droducing obstructions from
the highways; 128,057 motorists
1 were assisted; 682 stolen cars
were recovered, and 9,439 acci
dents were investigated.
Examinations for driver’s li
censes have been given to 432,
517 individuals. There were
47,685 motorists arrested for
dangerous violations. As a re
sult of the arrests made by pa
trolmen, lines in the amount of
$463,037.01 have accrued in the
public school fund.
On February 19, 1946, the pa
trol started to broadcast from
Lincoln, the first station in op
eration of a new three-way FM
nine-station radio system. In
addition to the nine stations,
the patrol has 57 cars equipped
with three-way radio equip
ment.
In the files of the patrol can
be found many stories of the
patrol officers’ rescue of per
sons during blizzards, floods,
and windstorms. Also stories
of numerous mercy dashes
rushing rare illness and acci
dent victims to hospitals, and
serums to polio victims. Sev
eral accident victims’ lives have
been saved because of the of
ficers’ prompt first aid at the
scene.
Original personnel of the pa
trol included 44 officers, 22 of
whom are still members. An
increase in 1940 brought the
personnel to 73.

Finds Rural Schools in
Wisconsin, Illinois
Receiving State Aid
County Superintendent Elja
McCullough returned late Sun
day from a two-weeks’ vacation
trip to Menominee, Wis., Chica
go, and Moline, 111.
During her visit Miss McCul
lough found time to visitor nu
merous rural schools in both
Wisconsin and Illinois and
drew comparisons with Nebras
ka rural schools
She found standards and
methods “comparable,” but
noted that in both states the
state government “did more
j for the rural schools than does
the state of Nebraska.” In Wis
consin, she found in counties
j comparable in population to
Holt that the county superin
tendent of public instruction
was assisted by two supervisors
who travelled constantly from
school-to-school.
In Illinois the outstanding
feature of the educational pro
gram was the mass physical ed
ucation program instead of de
voting the program to a “spe
cialized few.”
Miss McCullough visited
with relatives in Wisconsin
and with friends, including Mr.
and Mrs. Gerald Graybiel and
Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Classen,
at Chicago.

No Immediate Peril
in Coal Shortage
Prolonged Strike Would
Require Emergency
Measures Here
1 FIRM HAS SUPPLY
There is no immediate peril
here in regard to the coal situa
tion.
But a prolonged strike by the
Nations 400,000 soft coal miners,
who quit the pits this week,
would soon force emergency mea
sures for coal conservation.
The Moore-Noble Lumber &
Coal company here has the only
coal in stock in the city, and the
fuel is being rationed now at 1,
000-pounds per customer.
The Sj)elts-Ray Lumber com
pany, also a leading dealer, ad
vised The Frontier today (Thurs
day) that “there is not a pound
in the yard.”
'Car-to-Customer'
Hugh Ray, of the Spelts-Ray
firm, said that the requirements
have been so great in the face of
the threatened strike that seven
carloads of fuel were recently un
loaded directly from the car to
the customer.
Leo Moore, of the Moore-Noble
firm, did not say how long their
stock would last in meeting the
needs of the city and its sur
rounding territory, but indicated
that the situation may soon be
serious.
Both firms may have carloads
of coal in transit.
Second Walkout
Mining activity in most of the
Nation’s pits was grinding to a
halt today after the Urfited Mine
Workers’ contract with the gov
ernment “terminated” at mid
night last night. It is the second
giant coal walkout this year.
The Chicago and Northwestern
railway here—the Omaha-Chad
ron mainline—employs oil-burn
ing locomotives exclusively, and
no service interruption is expect
ed. The Burlington line—Sioux
City to O’Neill—is dependent up
I on coal and service may be cur
tailed. During the strike last sum
mer the Burlington reduced serv
i ice on numerous lines in the
state.
Employment Service
Returns to State
Effective last Saturday, the
i employment service was returned
to state control. The wartime fed
erally-operated agency was des
ignated as the United States Em
ployment Service. The organiza
tion is now known as the Ne
braska State Employment serv
ice.
Holt county is served by the
district office at Norfolk, head
ed by W. A. Steffen.
“Administration of the employ
ment service was returned to the
state under the provisions of a
law passed in the last session of
Congress,” Steffen said.
No change in operating person
nel or service of the Norfolk of
fice was made in the transition.
“Job seekers may feel that un
der state operation the employ
ment service will continue as an
agency regeared to the needs of
the peonle of our state,” Steffen
said. “Veterans will continue to
receive the same preferred place
ment service and job counseling
as in the past,” he added.
Ballot Canvassing
