Budget Requirements
for Holt Increased
Salary Increases, Two
Elections Factors
(See fable on page 4)
The Holt county general fund
budget requirements are up for
the new fiscal year, according to
an estimate filed this week with
the board of supervisors.
The increase largely is due to
the costs of two elections — pri
mary and general—and an in
crease in county employees’ sal
aries during the second half of
the fiscal year, which begins
January 1. 1955. The total
amount to be raised by tax levy
is $35,139.45.
Bridge fund requirements are
down $5,000, and the amount to
be raised by tax levy in that
fund will be down about $5,920.
County relief requirements
are up $600. Amount to raise
by tax levy for relief purposes
will be up about $3,059.
County fair requirements are
up $700. The amount to be rais
ed by tax levy for fair work will
be increased $300.
County medical and hospital
ization requirements are down
an estimated $3,000. The amount
to raise by taxation this year
will be $7,000.
The proposed tax levy as
shown in the statement of the
budget for the year 1954-’55 is
up over the 1953 levy due to a 20
percent cut in valuation of all
village and city real estate and
a 30 percent cut in all rural real
estate, made by the county board
of equalization. This cut must be
approved by the state board be
fore it is effective.

“When people ask me about
O’Neill, I tell them it’s less than
20 thousand,” he said.
O’Neill’s population is three
thousand.
Bill Froelich came up the hard
way.
He was born in Stromsburg,
the son of a farmer. His father’s
roots were in Germany, his
mother’s in Ireland. They met
as neighbors in Illinois. There
were three children in the fam
ily, Bill, Frank and the sister
who is now Mrs. Edward T.
Campbell. All live in O’Neill.
Frank, eight years older than
Bill, runs two erf their Nebraska
farms. Mrs. Campbell’s husband
is cashier of the O’Neill First
National bank.
The Froelich family moved to
near Inman, east of O’Neill,
when Bill was an infant. His
dad bought and sold livestock.
When Bill was four they moved
tc O’Neill and the elder Mr.
Froelich joined J. B. Ryan in the
hay and grain business. The
partnership lasted until Mr. Froe
lich’s death in 1911.
Bill attended St. Mary’s acad
emy in O’Neill, then O’Neill
high school, where he was grad
uated in 1918.
The pool hall job in Lincoln
followed. He thought medicine
was his destiny and he hit Carlie
Moon, then proprietor of the
Saratoga, for a part-time job
while taking a pre-med course
at the University of Nebraska.
Mr. Moon is the present state
boxing commissioner.
“Somehow I thought I wanted
to be a doctor,” Mr. Froelich
said. “I soon discovered I didn’t
particularly like the course and

One year al the university
was enough and he went back
to O'Neil! to work for 18
months as a store clerk and
summertime salesman of
school textbooks. He was a
good salesman, but the pay
wasn't much.
Monsignor Cassidy, pastor of
St. Patrick's church of O’Neill,
urged him to continue his
schooling. The young man chose
law and picked Georgetown uni
versity of Washington, D.C., as
tie place +o learn it, although he
had never been to the capital.
‘Honest Differences’
with Ike Foreseen
(Continued from page 1)
chairman of the Curtis-for-senate i
movement.
The 16-year congressional
veteran left O'Neill and drove
to Albion where he spoke brief
ly at a meeting of the North
east Nebraska District Press
association, attended by 130
newspaper editors, publishers
and employees.
Curtis is married and the fa
ther of two adopted children. He
practiced law at Minden prior to
entering the congressional field
in 1939.
Said Mr. Ray in behalf of Con
gressman Curtis:
“Carl T. Curtis has a 16-year
record of devoted service to our
state, to every citizen, and to
our nation. He knows the job.
He knows the senators. No new
comer could ever hope to have
the initial effectiveness which he
possesses. Carl T. Curtis can
render a greater service than
anyone else available.”
The previous day, at Valen
tine, Curtis reiterated he stands
firmly against consigning Amer
ican troops to Indochina.

He got to Washington by hog
train and bus. The hog train, on
which he worked his way as a
nursemaid to the hogs, took six
days to reach Buffalo, N.Y. He
had $150 when he took the bus
on to Washington. This was the
fall of 1922.
“I’ve had a lot of good breaks
in my life for which I’m thank
ful to God,” he said. “One of the
first came a month or so after I
got to Washington.
“I got a job hopping bells at
the old Po vhattan hotel, work
ing from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. One of
the persons living there was
Gen. Leonard Wood (army offi
cer after v/hom the Missouri
army post is named). He must
have seen how awkward I was
and took pity on me.
“One day he said to me,
‘Young man, why don’t you go
see one of the senators from
Nebraska or a congressman and
see if you can’t get a job?’
“The next day I called on Sen
ator (George) Norris and told
him how I had ridden a hog
train East to enter Georgetown.
He said, ‘Young man, take off
your hat; you have a job.’ ”
It was in the senate postoffice.
He received $150 a month. He
held the job throughout his
freshman year at Georgetown.
His roommate was another O’
Neill young man, John Mullen,
also a Georgetown student.
During Bill’s second year
there, Senator Norris named him
as clerk of the senate agriculture
committee of which the senator
was chairman. This paid two
hundred dollars monthly. He
stayed on during the remainder
of his study at Georgetown.
The committee work entailed
briefing bills for the senators,
but gave him more time to study
than had the postoffice work.
He finished among the top three
in a class of 125 to 150.
Senator Norris encouraged
him to prepare for the Nebras
ka bar exam rather than stay
in the East. He finished school
in June. 1926, took his exam
ination for the Nebraska bar
in July, was named assistant
United States district attorney
in Omaha July 15.
J. C. Kinsler was the United
States attorney for Nebraska.
The assistant’s monthly salary
was $161, but Bill felt it was suf
ficient to support a wife. A week
after taking the position he and
the hometown girl of his dreams
were married. They set up house
keeping in Omaha.
Those were the prohibition
days. It fell to the lot of the
young attorney to specialize in
the prosecution of liquor and
narcotic cases. Here his talent
for digging up evidence and for
thoroughness soon brought at
tention.
The record shows he was a
fearless fighter. He handled doz
ens of cases, lost only a few.
When Mabel Walker Wille
brandt, then assistant attorney
general at Washington in charge
of penal institutions, liquor and
tax cases, needed an assistant in
her department, she thought of
the young man at Omaha.
After two years in Omaha, he
became one of a famous “secret
six” assigned by Mrs. W i 11 e -
b r a n d t to prominent cases
throughout the nation. He joined
the attorney general’s staff in
Washington in April, 1929.
Among others, Mr. Froelich
was assigned to liquor conspiracy
cases against Helen Morgan and
Texas Guinan, famous night club
personalities. He also handled
the re-mdictment of ex-Gov. Sid
ney J. Catts. sr., of Florida.
The original indictment against
the former governor for aiding
in the manufacture of counter
feit money had been found to be
faulty. Mr. Froelich brought a
re-indictment, but at the trial the
jury disagreed and the ex-gov
emor went free.
Mr. Froelich remembers as
"a most interesting case” one
at Seattle, Wash. A federal pro
h i b i t i o n administrator for
three states and 18 prohibition
agents were named in a con
spiracy to run liquor in from
Canada by boat.
“They had a radio hookup.
Bedtime stories were the signals
for the rum runners to take eith
er the inland route or the outside
route, depending on where the
coast guard was,” he said.
In Seattle, Mr. Froelich got a
phone call to report to the at
torney general in Washington
for an appointment with Presi
dent Hoover. The attorney had
been chosen to represent the de
partment of justice in its war
against Chicago gang lawless
ness. Infamous A1 (“Scarface”)
Capone was gangster king.
President Hoover was deter
mined to break up the gangs
and wanted Capone behind bars.
“If Capone is bigger than the
government, we’d better find it
out now. Chicago must be clean
ed up,” the president told Mr.
P’roelich.
Attorney General William D.
Mitehell promised as many men
as needed for the job. Dwight H.
(“Pete”) Green was assigned |
from the bureau of internal rev
enue to represent the bureau in
the Chicago cleanup. (He later
became Illinois governor.)
The forces arrayed against the
gangster included prohibition and
narcotic agents and secret ser
vice men under the direction of
United States District Attorney
E. Q. Johnson and Mr. Froelich.
Capone was named on 21 counts
of income tax evasion.
It was the first income tax
case in United States history
in which a defendant was con
victed on the evidence of his
expenditures.
"Capone was clever enough to
make all his transactions in cash;
so t.iere was no income record
there,” Mr. Froelich sard. “Evid
ence on other pnases of lawless
ness was impossible to obtain.
Wnnesess were too frightened to
talk. So we set out to prove his
income on the basis of what he
spent in certain periods of time.”
The evidence included Capone's
Cadillac cars, expensive tailor
made clothing, costly jewerly
“and $65 pajamas.”
On the eve of the trial, Mr.
Froelich was one of a small
group which flew in a light
plane to Rhode Island to see the
Attorney General. Enroute back,
the plane was forced. . to crash
land near LaPorte, Ind.
Mr. Froelich suffered a 15
stitches cut under an eye and
wore a bandage throughout the
three-week trail.
“Capone was calm and sub
dued,” he said, “He and his law
yers knew we had him. His attor
neys offered to plead him guilty.
Mr. Johnson (United States attor
n e y) agreed t o recommend a
three-year sentence. When Ca
one’s attorney told Judge (James)
Wilkerson, ‘We will accept a
three-year sentence,’ the judge
refused. He said, ‘You cannot
barter with the federal court; I
Will hear the evidence and will
not be bound by any agree
ment.’ ”
Close guard was kept on the
courtroom, but one gangster got
in with a gun. The man, one Phil
D’Endree, a Capone bodyguard,
was spotted by a marshall, who
noticed his pocket bulging. The
breach of etiquette cost the body
guard a year in jail.
Capone was given a 11-year
sentence, but didn't finish it.
He became a mental case and
died outside of prison.
Next Mr. Froelich decided to
switch directions. He resigned
his work with the Justice Depart
ment. Mr. Green, who had been
appointed to the United States
Attorney’s post in Chicago, nam
ed him as his assistant.
During a year’s tenure in this
position, he presented evidence
in the Government’s fraud
case against the Insull invest
ment houses.
Friendship with Walter J.
Cummings, who is now chairman
of the Continental Illinios Nat
ional bank and Trust Company
of Chicago, led to Mr. Froelich's
return to Washington in a new
role.
Mr. Cummings was then an
associate of Will H. Woodin of
the American Car and Foundary
Company, New York. President
Franklin D Roosevelt appointed
Mr. Woodin Secretary of the
Treasury and Mr. Cummings be
Z o
came the Secretary’s right hand
man in Washington, In turn Mr
Cummings asked Mr. Froelich to
become his counsel in the depart
ment.
The Nebraskan resigned his
Chicago position to go the Cap
itol once more. Secretary Wood
in’s health was not good and Mr.
Cummings was the acting secre
tary much of the time. As acting
secretary he became the first
chairman of the Federal Deposit
Insurance corporation which
guarantees bank deposits.
Mr. Froelich assissted in spk
ting up the FDIC.
When Mr. Cummings resigned
to become chairman of the Chi
cago bank, Mr. Froelich also end
ed his Washington career. He
set up private law practice with
otfices in the same Chicago bank
building, 231 South La Salle
street. This was in 1933.
For some 2^ years, the Froe
Jichs, who now had two children
*1 Chicago, then decided to'
establish their home at O'Neill.
They built it on the north side of
town on a block-square site.
Mr. Froelich began his com
muting via the Milwaukee road.
association with the
Milwaukee came through Leo
T. Crowley, who succeeded Mr.
Cummings as FDIC chairman.
As chairman of the Milwaukee's
board of directors, Mr. Crow
ley named Mr. Froelich as his
legal assistant.
His present position as mem
ber of the Milwaukee’s Board of
directors and of the executive
and finance committees calls for
considerable traveling.
Included in his other director
ships are those in the Wisconsin
Public Service Coporation of
Milwaukee (electric utilities), of
which he is also general counsel:
City Products corporation of
Chicago (storage car icing and
breweries with business in 36 of
the 48 states); Bendix Westing
house Airbrake of Cleveland;
American Brewery corporation
of New Orleans, La. He is chair
man of the board for the New
Orleans firm.
He is also director of the First
National bank of O’Neill and of
the First National bank at Atk
inson.
The law firm he heads has as
partners Jacob Grossman, Alfred
B. Teton and Seymour Tabin.
Next fall another Bill Froelich
will enter law college at George
town. Bill, jr., 26, is the eldest
of the three sons and two daugh
ters.
Like his dad, Bill, jr., started
off in another direction. Frail
health ended his four-year stud
ies at St. Louis, Mo., to become
& Jesuit priest. He is inthe navy,
stationed at Washington, after re
covering his health on the Froe
lich ranch.
Nancy, 22, is Mrs. J. R. Ber

ant at Scott Field, 111., Mary 16;
