Boy, we have fights that are dilliesi" State Capitol News— Liquor Commissioners Get Heads Rapped; One-Ball, Pin-Ball Machines Ruled Illegal a LINCOUN—The liquor com mission stole the week’s head lines away from the legislature. These were the day-by-day de velopments: MONDAY — Marcus Poteet, commission chairman, said that Omaha and northeast Nebraska were the “territory” of Commis sioner Blaine Young, of Omaha, and the other commissioners had no authority there. Young de nied this. 1 TUESDAY—Gov. Val Peter son called in the three commis sioners to knock their heads to gether. He told them to “stop this unseemly bickering” and they meekly agreed they would. WEDNESDAY — The commis sion started looking for a law enforcement chief, following the governor’s order to hire one im mediately. In the meantime, he assigned Lt. L. E. Sichottler, of the state safety patrol, to the job for 30 days . THURSDAY—This was a big ; day. Attorney-General _C. S. Beck | ruled that one-ball machines and pinball machines which yield free games were illegal gambl | ing devices. Charges have been made of “payoffs” by Omaha ta I vern operators to protect one j ball machines. Sen. Hugh Car J son, of Ord, who is responsible for the probe of the liquor com mission, demanded that the mem bers be suspended pending the outcome of the investigation. The governor said he couldn’t do that as a matter of “fair play.” Then Carson suggested that the legislature impeach the commis sioners. FRIDAY—Commenting on a proposed bill by Senator Carson overhauling the organization of the comimtission, Governor Peter son said a law enforcement of ficer could accomplish the same thing as a department director, as proposed by Carson. But, said Peterson, he was willing to study Carson’s proposal on its merits. At the same press conference, the governor announced that he would ask the legislature this week to approve a bill to pro vide for automatic suspensions of the license of establishments con victed of employing gambling devices. * * * Reports Dissension— Amid these goings-on, the special legislative probe com mittee, headed by Sen. Ray Bab cock, of Sidney, held two hear ings behind locked doors. At the first one, the group heard Edward A. Trask, of Om aha, a former special agent for the commission. Trask has said that he reported a number of violators who permitted gamb ling on one-balls in their taverns with cash payoffs to commission agents. At the second hearing, Poteet repeated under oath charges he had made earlier about commis sion dissension. Poteet said he told about how he cast the only dissenting vote when the other two commissioners, Young and Nathan Pont, of Omaha, decided almost two years ago to .over ride an attorney-general’s opin ion that liquor licensees are not allowed to deliver liquor which has not already been paid for. Also testifying was Dr. F. E. Zigenbein, former Nebraska City mayor, who reportedly describ ed an illicit wholesaler-retailer relation there. * * * Slate Setup 'Lousy'— Not all the probe news was made by Babcock’s committee. At the same time it was conducting hearings, another special legisla tive committee was meeting a cross the capitol: Sen. W. J. Wil liam’s group to study the opert tion of the state assistance de partment. If the first meeting was an in dication of things to come there will be a lot of charges and coun ter charges between the state a gency and the county welfare | departments. Some of the most vocal critics of the state aid department have been county directors. Douglas County Chief Phil Vogt, for instance, has called the state setup 'lousy.'' Neil C. Vandemoer said that many county offices are over staffed, but denied he had too many employes. Sen. John Beaver, of Beemer, asked who was responsible for the over-staffing. Vandemoer answered: “The county boards and the county directors. If there are too many employes, the county boards are at fault. They hire and they fire. Some county board members are not willing to put in the time to supervise closely.” Williams set the next meeting with Vandemoer and the board of control members for this week. * * * Senator Apologizes— Other highlights of the week in the legislature: Senator Williams apologized to his colleagues for storming from a committee hearing. “It’s never intelligent to lose one’s temper,” Williams said, “but there are times when the circum stances become almost unbear able.” Then Williams read a two page statement in which he ques tioned the value of the legisla tive council. He complained that some senators are unwilling to support bills which they helped to create by their participating in legislative council studies. Sen. John Adams, of Omaha, only negro member of the leg islature, failed, despite an im passioned plea lasting 30 min 1 utes, to get enough votes to raise his fair employment practices bill, killed earlier by the labor committee. Sen, Jack Larkin, of Omaha, was unsuccessful in his second attempt to kill the public hous ing referendum bill after a spir ited debate with Sen. John P McKnight, of Auburn, introducer of the measure. Sen. Dwight Burney’s bill to provide 10 more highway scales to enforce overloading laws pas sed its first test on the floor. Burney is a Hartington salon. Quiz on Traffic Rules Meeting Highlight— The Scott community club met at the home of Mrs. Frank Mc Donald with seven members and four visitors present. Meeting was called to order by our presi dent, Mrs. Charles Gifford. The flag salute was given and the song “Country Garden,” was sung. Each member answered roll call with a favorite potato recipe. Mrs. Charles Luber and Mrs Frank McDonald gave the les son on first part main dish meals. Our health leader, Mrs. Albert ; Carson, gave us a quiz on traffic rules.

Bulk of the top butcher hogs sold from $21.60 to $21.60 with an extreme top of $22.00. There were a lot of feeder pigs on the Thursday offering, but the O’Neill market was only fair— not as high as it has been in re cent weeks. Top light steers were quoted at $42.75 and there was a good demand lor these. Yearling steers were quoted from $36.00 to $40.00. Cows were moving around $24.00. • REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS WD—Herbert H.
