Accounts for Chemurgy Progress
“America has made 50 years
of progress in 10 years by tak
ing its inventors out of sheds
and attics and putting them
into modern resarch labora- ,
tories,” V. S- Peterson, of the
E. I. du Pont de Nemours

the Chamber of Commerce at
a luncheon meeting today

“The whole story of our eco
nomic system, which has pro
duced by far the highest
standard of living the world
has ever known, is bound up
in this process,” he said.
Mr. Peterson told his O’Neill
audience how rayon, nylon

panded into making thousands
of jobs that never before ex
isted. He showed representa

the experimental stage.
The speaker said that the
reason for the advance is be
cause “somewhere along the
line people learned that every
body would gain if science, la
bor, and capital got together,
first, to share the risks; second,
to share the problems, and
third, to share the benefits.’’

FROST DAMAGE |
NEGLIGIBLE HERE
Mercury Dips to 29
Early Wednesday;
Winds Prevail
An unseasonal freeze early
Wednesday failed to inflict any
real damage, according to re
ports from various sections of
the county.
The mercury dipped to a low
of 29 here. Government Observ
er Elmer Bowen reported.
Although the frost might have
blighted some early garden
plants the damage appeared to
be negligible.
Meanwhile, spring winds have
visited this section almost daily
for more than a week. Some re
ports indicate that the wind has
dried the top soil and in some
instances damaged small grain.
Other reports show that the
winds were beneficial, drying
lowlands which heretofore have
been too wet to work.
County Agent A. -Neil Dawes
said that Holt county was as j
far along as other sections of
the state.” I
Most of the cattle are still on
the meadows, but soon will be
turned onto the range.

Twofold Purpose for Disabled
Vets in Making of Poppies
Disabled veterans at the
Veterans’ hospital in Lincoln,
are rushing completion of me
morial poppies which will be
worn in honor of the war dead
on poppy day, May 24. accord
ing to Mrs. Dean Streeter, pop
py chairman of the American
Legion Auxiliary here.
The unit has already receiv
ed the 1500 poppies which will
be distributed here All of
the little red flowers are indi
vidually shaped by hand, pro
viding employment for veter
ans unable to do other work.
Making poppies at the hos
pital is directed by the Ne
braska Department of the
Auxiliary, which provides the
materials, instructs the work
ers. and pavs for the flowers
produced. Veterans of both
world wars are employed, old
er veterans of World War I
alongside of the vounger vets
of World War II.
u-_ . .
“The work is enjoyed by the
men, who benefit from it in
two ways.” Mrs. Streeter ex
plained. “First, making the
poppies is beneficial as occu
pational therapy, providing in
teresting occupation for hands
and minds during the long
days of hospitalization and
convalescence. Second, the
money earned enables the vet
erans to help provide for them
selves or their families and is
a powerful morale builder.
“Because of the increased
public response to the Legion
and Auxiliary poppy day ap
peal, more veterans are being
given employment this year
than ever before,” Mis. Street
er continued. “Every person
who wears a poppy on poppy
day,” she said, “not only pays
tribute to the war dead but
helps the war’s living victims
toward recovery and rehabili
tation.”
ROBECK LOW IN
PIPE-LAYING BID
Omaha Firm Expects to
Finish City Job by
Late Summer
The Charles Robeck Construc
tion company, of Omaha, Tues
day night was awarded the con
tract for laying the pipe in con
nection with the city’s project
for improving the water system.
The Robeck bid of $30,368.66
was low and will include the
"dewatering” of the ditches,
which will be undertaken for a
flat $3,200 that is incorporated in
the above figure.
The Robeck firm will lay the
pipe from the site of the two new
city wells, situated two miles
south of town, to the vicinity of
of the city council chamber on
South Fourth street.
The letting of the pipe-laying
contract is the final major bus
iness phase of the expansion
program.
The two new' wells, drilled by
the Kelley Well company, of
Grand Island, tost $6,512; the
pipe for tying into the present
system cost $34,299 36; the pur
chase and installation of new
pumps, sold by the Layne West
ern company, cost $6,674; the
engineering fees are estimated at
$4,800; the two new pump houses
will cost an estimated $3,500;
Robeck’s $30,368.66 brings the to
tal cost to approximately $86,000.
F'lece-fvieai \^neaper
By breaking down the project
into “piece-meal” contracts the
council effected a savings of an
estimated $7,800 under the origi
nal bids made in January. Part
of this savings, a spokesman ex
plained, is in the “dewatering”
process. The ditches in the Elk
horn river valley will be filled
with water. This m u s t be
pumped-out before the pipe-lay
ing can be completed. Those
bidding for the pipe-laying job
varied in their estimates of the
“dewatering” requirements. The
balance of the savings was ac
complished in the purchase of
pipes.
The pipe is expected to arrive
in July and the pipe-laying will
begin in about 10 days thereaf
tor.
It is expected that the Robeek
firm will complete the pipe-lay
ing in about 60 days after work
is begun.
City Council in

The city council will meet in
special session Monday night to
