Bees Thrive After Thawing Out
Dale Beilin, 18, was summoned to the residence of the late
Alice Minton to capture a swarm of bees weathering the winter
in one of the outside walls. The Minton house is being torn down
and the bees held up the progress of the workmen. Beilin donned
his mask and with a cardboard box scooped them up, placed
them in an observation hive (above). After thawing them out, the
bees are doing nicely. It’s rare for bees to survive snow and cold
wind but this swarm showed no ill effects. The busy bees are be
ing nursed on a quart of honey and soyflower through a special
feeder arrangement. The Minton house formerly was a store
building in the business district.—The Frontier Photo by John H.

Rough Sledding Seen
for Betting Bill
State Sen. Frank Nelson in O’Neill over the weekend predicted
“mighty tough sledding” in the legislature for one of five bills he
has introduced in the 1953 session. He was referring to a proposal
he has on file which would impose a five percent tax on parimutuel
horse-race betting in Nebraska.
“I have received numerous encouraging letters in support of
my proposal,” Senator Nelson told The Frontier.
The O'Neill solon's bill would tax the total amount wagered
at the tracks in the amount of five percent. The organization
sponsoring the meet, like Omaha's Ak-Sar-Ben, would get its 10
percent.
Nelson also asks for one-half of the breakage (odd cents left
over after winning prices are figured to the nearest 10 cents).
The sponsor points out that his proposal provides for the win
ner paying the state a tax on the bets and the loser pays nothing.
Biggest parimutuel race meets in the state are Ak-Sar-Ben, Ne
braska state fair, Columbus, Madison, Alliance, and several others.
Betting is the only legalized form of gambling in the state.
“I have noted recent newspaper reports stating there will be in
creased prizes for FFA and 4-H clubs from Ak-Sar-Ben this year,”
Senator Nelson said. “I am pleased very much that this will be the
case.
“I believe there are many people over the state who do not
realize the immense amount of money collected by Ak-Sar-Ben, for
example. The total amount of Ak bets the past year were over 12
million-dollars at this one track alone.”
Almost all stales in the union where parimutuel beiiing is le
galized the total amounts wagered are taxed. Nebraska is a nota
ble exception and betting has developed into a lush business.
Mr. Nelson provided The Frontier with an interim report, dat
ed August 31, 1952. compiled by John M. Gilchrist company, cer

to have its attorney, William W.
Griffin, delve into the legal as
pects of such an election with
regard to financial limitations, if
any, on a bond issue in a city the
size of O'Neill for park and rec
reational purposes.

Contractors’ bids on bitumi

highway 108, south of Page, will
be asked at a department of
roads and irrigation letting on
March 26. The letting will be
among the first since the state
highway department’s socalled
sufficiency rating system was
recommended.
Bids for gravel resurfacing will
be asked on Nebraska highway
18, north of Spencer; in Key a
Paha and Rock counties between
Jamison and Newport and the

Libory, is also included in the
plans for contract lettings at the
statehouse on March 26.
State Engineer Harold Aitken’s
sufficiency rating system was
presented to the state legislature
last week. If additional road
money is not forthcoming, Ait
ken contemplates no immediate
improvements on U.S. highway
281 north from O’Neill. In other
words, the highway north from
C’Neill rates a number 2 prior

If additional money is provid
ed by the legislature on an emer

Aitken would plan to hardsur
face 281 from the drive-in the

Noted on Eve of
Opening of Drive
A corps of assistant assessors
will set out Wednesday, March 11„
on the annual job of assessing
Holt county real and personal
property owners.
The state board of equalization
has ordered that county assess
ors undertake the job on the ba
sis of 100 percent valuations. Al
though 100 percent is the going
figure prescribed by law, last
year the Holt valuations were
fixed at 34 percent.
bui in me stale legislature
now in session at Lincoln, all
eyes are on the progress ol LB
272 which calls for assess
i menls at 5J percent of actual
values.
Holt county assistant assessors
will receive their supplies from
County Assessor William Wefso
on March 11. Normally these are
passed out earlier, but all coun
ty assessors in the state will be
meeting in Lincoln on March 10
—the customary tee-off date for
the assistants.
Mr. Wefso points out that Ne
braska law places full responsi
bility bn the taxpayer for making
certain that all his personal
property is listed for taxation.
The law, he says, provides a
penalty of 50 percent of the val
uation lor failure to list, refusal
to list, falsely listing or trans
ferring property for the purpose
of evasion of taxes.
A spot check will be made in
each precinct to determine if the
taxpayers are turning in their
correct valuation.
If it is found in the check
that anyone has failed to list
their properly correctly, the SC
; percent penalty will be ap
I plied.
Taxpayers are urged to furnisn
their 1952 schedules when being
assessed so that the proper school
districts, road and fire dis
tricts may be readily determined!
to speed the assessing procedure.
