NORTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY O O State Capitol News . . . Carpenter, Bridenbaugh Proposals Make I Bedfellows of State GOP, Demo Bigwigs LINCOLN—A lobby loafer a the Cornhusker hotel here las week might well have wonderec whether his eyes were deceivm; him. [ It was a strange sight to set the bigwigs of both the republi : can and democratic parties pump mg hands with each other but th< | explanation was simple: The] I were joining forces against a paii of common foes. The enemy ir this case wTas a couple of bill: their sponsors say would give the average voter a bigger voice ir party affairs and consequently, . bigger voice in naming the mer who will serve in public office The bills, Sen. Carpenter’s LE 208 to provide for the election o; national committeemen at prim ary elections and Sen. Hal Briden laugh’s LB 260 to reform the nam ing of delegates to national pol itical conventions, were heard b> the government committee which took no immediate action. The hearing was one of the liveliesl of the session and was climaxed by Senator Carpenter’s heated as sertion that if his bill is passed he'll run for republican national committeeman and “beat the pants off” the party regulars whe have won the job since it has been filled at party conventions. i The flamboyant Scoilsbluff senator called State GOP Chair man David T. Martin and Nat ional Committeeman Abel V. Shotwell "a bunch of political cowards" who are afraid to "take your case to the people." Martin had dismissed the bill as one “introduced at the behest of a handful of men (he called them Johnny-come-latelies) whose per sonal ambitions have overshad owed their judgment.” Joining forces with the two GOP leaders were Democratic National Committeeman Bernard J. Boyle and National Committee woman Mary Cunningham. Edna Donald of Grand Island, the GOP committeewoman, got into the act, too. All of them said that since the committeeman’s job pays no sal ary or expenses, few qualified men would seek the post since it would cost thousands to stage a statewide campaign. Carpenter scoffed at this and suggested the post had been quite profitable to Arthur Mullen, a for mer democratic committeeman. The Bridenbaugh bill encount ered opposition from a pair of longtime GOP wheelhorses, Sam Reynolds and Charles Reed, both of Omaha and both members of (First pub. April 2, 1953) Julius D.

Cronin, Attorney NOTICE TO CREDITORS Estate No. 3900 In the County Court of Holt County, Nebraska, April 8th, 1953. In the Matter of the Estate of John P. McManus, Deceased. CREDITORS of said estate are hereby notified that the time limited for presenting claims against said estate is July 30th, 1953, and for the payment of ' debts is April 8th, 1954, and that on April 30th, 1953, and on July 31st, 1953, at 10 o’clock A.M., each day, I will be at the County Court Room in said County to receive, examine, hear, allow, or adjust all claims and objections duly filed. LOUIS W. REIMER County Judge. (COUNTY COURT SEAL) 49-51 t ’ Nebraska’s delegation to Chicago, ■ 111., last summer. 1 The bill proposes that delegates ! be identified on the ballot with the presidential candidate they sup ‘ port. The delegates would be ap portioned according to the votes received by their candidates. If ( ! presidential candidate number 1 ' got half the votes and numbers ■ 2 and 3 split the other half equal i ly, the delegation would be made i up of half number l’s supporters ! and a quarter each to the other i two. Reynolds who ran as a Taft delegate last spring and who voted for the Ohio senator even after it became obvious that Eisenhower had won the nom ination, called the Bridenbaugh proposal "not the American way." He said delegates would be nothing more than errand boys who might as well stay home and write a letter. The bill provides that delegates would be bound to their candidate until he began losing strength or until he released them. Reed argued that a state’s trad ing position would be jeopardized if the whole convention knew exactly how the Nebraskans would vote. Neither man said anything about giving meaning to the vote Nebraskans cast in the president ial primary. * * * I Redistricting— Nebraska’s lagging school re ; districting program may get a shot in the arm, but probably not before 1955. Three senators—Mar vel of Hastings, Cramer of Albion and Duis of Gothenburg—intro duced a resolution at week’s end calling for a legislative council study of the problem between now and the next session of the legislature. Observers took this to mean that this session of the legislat ure is not likely to do much about redistricting. The education committee, otf which Marvel and Cramer are members, last week heard two bills aimed at promoting reorgan ization but it took no action. One of the bills, introduced at the request of Gov. Crosby, would allow rural elementary school districts to contract with other districts for instruction for two consecutive years only. Crosby told the committee con tracting is retarding consolidation of districts because “it comes to be a financial advantage for the school contracting pupils out. State Supt. F. B. Decker point ed out that almost 1,800 districts are contracting their pupils out and said, “the mill levy of the contracting district is consider ably below the operating district’s levy.” The bill drew opposition from Alfred Gabelman, representing the Rural School Board associa tion. He said rural districts would reopen their own schools rather than consolidate if contracting is abolished. George Collins of Atkinson said 32 districts in his county are con tracting because they cannot get teachers. The other measure, by Senator Cramer, would set up a county school board under a county board of education. He said the county board would replace the present county reorganization committees and further redistricting work. This bill drew strong opposi tion from the Farm Bureau Fed eration, whose representive, Rus sell Lockwood of Lincoln, said it contemplates a “compulsory coun ty unit system.” He said his or ganization would not oppose an optional system. * * * Bingo— The local option bingo bill — moved a step closer to passage last week altho*gh its sponsor, Senator Carpenter, had to steer it through some troubled waters. The measure was advanced by voice vote after the lawmakers tied themselves into knots to avoid a roll call vote which would have put them on record. The know-it-alls think that if the bill fails, it’ll be because it won’t be able to muster enough votes on final passage where each individual vote must be recorded. Because of the strong opposition to the measure from church groups and others, most senators are going to be pretty unwilling to say publicly that they’re for the bill. * * * Constitution— There’s northing wrong with the Nebraska constitution that a few amendments won’t fix, the legis lature decided last week, in voting to uphold Sen. Bridenbaugh’s motion to kill a bill which would have put the issue of calling a constitutional convention on the ballot in 1954. Sen. Carpenter said the trouble with the document, last given a general working over in 1920, is that it’s “static” and not flexible enough to meet today’s conditions. The vote for Bridenbaugh’s motion was 27 to 15. • * • Watersheds— The legislature is nearing the , end ocf public hearings on bills. This is one of the few state law making bodies which holds a hearing on every bill introduced and some members wonder out loud why they subject themselves to such torture. Though they’re not willing to allow the use of their names, some senators have said they grow mighty weary of seeing the same lobbyists appear o n bill after bill with the same com ments. The fare for the rest of this week is meager. The revenue committee today (Thursday) will' hear a bill prohibiting the sale of cigarettes below cost and otne providing a procedure for deter mining value of stock shares in domestic corporations. On Friday, too, only one committee will be in action. The government com mittee will hear bills to abolish the State Liquor commission and to place on the next general elect ion ballot two constitutional amendments affecting state offi cers.
