INAUGURATE RETURN OF WORLD WAR II DEAD
President Truman inaugur
ates the program for return of
World War II dead in a mes
sage which he hands to the
Quartermaster General of the
Army, Maj.-Gen. T. B. Larkin.
This ceremony at the White
House was attended by Under
Secretary of War Kenneth C.
Royall. The President’s mes
sage states: “In deep and ever
lasting appreciation of the he
roic efforts of those who, in
keeping their country free,
made the supreme sacrifice in
World War II—the entire Na
tion has been dedicated to dis
posing of the mortal remains of
those honored dead in a man
ner consistent with the wishes
of their next of kin.”
This message is part of the
brochure which will be sent to
next of kin by the Office of the
Quartermaster General at the
time next of kin a*e officially
requested to state their wishes
regarding final burial.
pRAIRIELAND
rP A T Route 5
... 1 ATKINSON
LINCOLN—With the retire
ment of Mr. Griswold, one
country editor passes from the
executive chair at the state
house and another takes his
place. Mr. Peterson vacates the
editorial chair in the little
town of Elgin, in our neighbor
ing county on the east, to be
the third or fourth newspaper
man to serve as governor of
Nebraska in recent times.
Mr. Griswold has been an
able executive with probably
as few mistakes as anyone
could escape with in three
terms. About the only criti
cism out on prairieland has
been the barber bill and the
transfer of old age assistance
funds. His greatest political
blunder j4*us to oppose Mr.
Butler for the United States
senate.
Upon the whole, Mr. Peter
son takes over the affairs of
state with a high mark of effi
ciency to measure up to.
* * *
In asking a few cents more
per hour to be added to the
rate of pay has union labor the
right answer to balance the
household budget? As I view
it, not a higher wage scale is
the answer, but let the crafts
man have the full benefit of
all he earns. Out of every $100
the workman who has no de
pendents earns, $19.80 with
holding tax and $1 social secur
ity is taken from him, a total
of $20.80. In other words, he
receives but $79.20 of the $100
earned, and those with depend
ents are affected more-or-less.
The $1 social security he ap
proves of because it goes into
an annuity fund for his bene
fit later in life. The $19.80 goes
to the government as income
tax. All citizens approve of
reasonable demands on them
to support the government un
der which they enjoy life's
privileges, but hasn’t the coun
try become involved in a pro
gram of vast spending that
should be decapitated in the
middle, to the end that all citi
zens should more fully enjoy
the fruits of their labors.
• • •
One world, the only one we
know. A DD writing for a pot
able church publication, joins
the chorus for a one-world gov
ernment, listing as his notion ,
that nationalism is immoral.
Let’s see, wasn’t it Herr Hit
ler who was going to make it
over into “one world,” himself
the kingpin of it all?
There is still a sizeale group
of the race who subscribe to
the dictum of St. Paul that the
nations of men are to dwell up
on all the face of the earth
within the bounds of their hab
itations.

A 300 million dollar corn
crop was gathered this season
from Nebraska farm lands, ac
cording to some estimates.
Probably not as many as a
fourth of Nebraska families are
engaged in corn growing as a |
market crop.

The yuletide casualty across
the street from where I write
was not included in the Ameri
can press reports for the day.
A kindly disposed motorist
brought him to his dooryard
and the victim of too much
Christmas cheer got out on un -
steady legs, fell to the concrete,
and made it to his door on all
fours.

Los Angeles reported 25 traf
fic deaths Christmas day. I am
thankful to have had a whole
hide when I left there a few
weeks ago, at that time 800
traffic deaths having been
marked up for the year.

American relief - agencies
have the cooperation of officials
in both British and American
zones in Germany, while offi
cials in the Russian zone oppose
such ministry. The Russian of
ficial mind is apparently closed
to anything that will show us
in a favorable light.

Is that 70 per cent lend

ligure juggling of our federal

"* It If distinctly Important to ovary
Nebraakan that your own state-wide
electric system, entirely self-support
ing, has completed another year of
sound and successful operation. This
success is vividly reflected in the fact
pt that Consumers Public Power District,
paying Ut way at it goat, has retired
more than one million dollars of its
bonds from earnings during 1946.
► Especially noteworthy is that feet
that Consumers, like any other sound
ly operated enterprise, employing
buslneea-like methods — pays City,
County, State and School taxes in every
county in which it operates . , . and,
in addition, hat brought savings of
more than one million dollars per year
to Nebraska electric users through re
duced electric rates.
Through Consumers sound bond re
tirement schedule, Nebraska communi
ties are, year by year, acquiring their
own debt-free electric system by a
method which places no financial strain
or obligation on the citizens or the
communities it serves. Under this
systom, each year as the debt is re
duced, the amount of interest is re
duced and the amount applicabls to
principal is accelerated according to a
definite amortization schedule.
