Silt, Rock Dam
Formed at Randall
Age-Old Channel Is
Being Closed-Off
PICKTOWN—A dam of silt and
chalk rock slowly was rising
above the surface of the Missouri
river at the Ft. rtandall dam here
to close off the age-old channel of
the river, never before tamed by
man.
G. O. Evans, district engineer
for the corps of engineers which
is building the $192 million dol
lar dam, said the dam has broken
water in the river downstream
from the site of the Ft. Randall
dam and that water is flowing
over it with a drop of about two
and one-half feet.
The temporary dam is being
constructed with the Western
Construction company’s dredge
which cuts into the edge of the
bank and then pumps the silt and
chalk rock through an 18-inch
pipeline to a barge moving slowly
back and forth across the channel.
The silt and chalk rock pour
out of the barge in a steady
stream to form the dam.
Evans said the dredge’s part in
the construction of the temporary
dam ended Monday, then heav
ier material will be added with
trucks to finally close off the
channed.
The Missouri river then will
move througli the 15-story high
intake structure through the part
of the permanent dam already
completed and out through flood
control and power tunnels.
Until closure is completed only
about one-third of the volume of
the river will go through the tun
neis.
Evans said the temporary chalk
rock dam will be completed by
Saturday. At that time
state and national officials will be
on hand to observe the closure.
Once the temporary dam is
completed, big scrapers will start
pushing the permanent Ft. Ran
dall dam across the still pool
formed by the temporary dam.
By next year the dam will be
able to hold back some flood
waters, acording to the officials
of the corps of engineers of
Omaha.

‘Right Attitude
a Safety Aid
Davis Youth Recovers
from Accident
The 1952 theme for national
farm safety week is, “Adopt right
attitudes for farm safety; think
safety, act safety.”
Most farm accidents are the re
sult of the attitude people have
toward safety. Here are some
suggestions which can help
you make this week and year a
safer one:
1. Correct hazards which may
cause loss of time, money and
health
2 Dont just know safety rules,
practice them.
3. Do not depend on luck.
4. Don’t try and crowd every
thing into one day. Plan ahead.
5. (Never smoke around barns
and in bed. Make sure all
matches and cigarettes are out
before you throw them away.
6. Have a place for every
thing..
7. Never be a road hog. Re
member the other fellow has as
much right on the highway as
you do.
About 15,000 farm residents die
and about 1,300,000 are injured in
rural accidents each year. Let’s
make this year the safest. Let’s
all “Adopt right attitudes toward
farm safety; think safety and act
safety.”
Holt county has Had many ac
cidents in the past year. One boy,
Owen Davis, who is now convales
cing from a tractor accident says
he found it did not pay for more
than one or two persons to be on
a tractor. E. J. Revell, who is the
grandfather of the boy, says he
certainly was thankful that the
boy had the chance to put the
brake on causing the tractor
wheel to skid, otherwise he would
have been crushed by the tractor.
Now many young boys and girls
are operating tractors in the fields
without having the opportunity to
know all they should about high
powered machines. Extreme cau
tion should be used at all times.
Four-H clubs and home exten
sion clubs are studying safety
this week and working on safety
measures throughout the county.
Safety should be the one most im
portant thing in the home and on
the farm. For each life saved is
worth more than all the crops a
farm can produce.

State Property
Assessment Up
_
Nebraska’s 1952 tangible prop
erty asesment total is $3,068,868,
110, Tax Commissioner Philip
Johnon reported Tuesday.
The 1951 figure was $3,007,581,
740.
The 2 percent increase, this year
over last, compared to a \0 per
cent increase chalked up ik 1951
over 1950.
Johnson said this indicates a
tendency to “level off,” but there
is still room for improvement in
the assessment of real estate, he
believes.
There was a decline this year
in individual schedules, which in
clude grain, livestock and other
personal property, both rural and
urban.
The decline was due to the poor
1951 crop year and to falling
prices in farm commodities,
Johnson said.
But the decline in personal
property totals was more than
offset by larger business sched
ules and real estate improve
ments.
Johnson did not comment on
the state tax levy, which will be
fixed by the state board of equal
ization next week.
With the assessment total show
ing a slight increase, however,
and in view of other factors to be
considered, it did not seem likely
that this year’s state levy would
be any higher than last year’s.
The 1951 state levy was 6.59
mills including the 1.1 state build
ing levy, which has four more
years to go.
Johnson noted that the $61,
286,370 increase in total valuation
this year was only the second that
has not amounted to at least $100 j
million a year since he became !
associated with the tax commis- I
sioners office in 1947.
Last year the increase was
$295,076,294.
Johnson gave this breakdown of
this year’s assessment total:
Individual schedules $691,484,
657, down $16,886,433 from 1951.
Business schedules $206,709,433,
up $7,654,994.
Special schedules $518,215,225,
up $28,915,708 (this item includes
motor vehicles, utilities, pullman
cars, etc.)
Farm land and improvements
$1,057,840,308, up $6,400,835.
Town lots and improvements
Mineral interests $2,456,633
$592,161,836, up $32,744,633.
(this is the first time this item
has been listed separately).
Total $3,068,868,110, up $61,286,
370.

Parking Meters
Get K.O. Punch
Informal Poll Hits
Gadgets, 34-14
The death knell was sounded
Friday on the O'Neill parking
meter proposal.
The O’Neill city council re
quested the business and profes
sional people of O’Neill to gather
in a hurry-up, unannounced ses
sion at the American Legion
club. They voted 34-14 against in
stallation of the meters and the
council promptly informed a
representative of the meter man
ufacturing firm, who was in the
city and spoke at the meeting,
that in view of the sentiment
against the meters the council
was in an awkward position to
fulfill the terms of the contract
The representative was H. Zelen
of Lincoln.
The council has not repudi
ated the original pact but did
ask Mr. Zelen to make a pro
posal to take out of town the
unwanted meters and offer a
settlement.
The parking meter issue origi
nally popped up about a year
ago when the city council entered
into an agreement with the Dun
can Meter corporation of Chicago,
111., for the installation of more
than a hundred meters at un
specified locations.
A group of citizens, headed by
S. Downey, circulated a petition,
went to court and successfully
•secured a restraining order pro
hibiting the installation of the
meters.
Meanwhile, the meters have
rested in storage.
Turnout at Friday’s hurryup
meeting was considered “good.”
