Flee Path of
Dakota Twister
STUART—Mrs. Gilbert Shald
and son, Stephen, Mrs. Wilfred
Seger and Maureen Ulrich fled
from the path of the tornado
which struck Burke, S.D., Sun
day.
The women were returning
from Midland, S.D., where they
had visited over the weekend
with Mr. Shald and Mr. Seger,
who are employed there, when
they saw the funnel shaped
cloud bearing down on them.
A filling station attendant at
Burke advised them to take ref
uge. They drove out of its path
and took refuge in the basement
of a farm home three miles
south of Burke.
After the storm they returned
to Burke to find the filling sta
tion where they had stopped
shortly before a pile of rubble.

On Taxation:
Property and real estate taxes can and should be re
duced by broadening the lax base.
Property tax in Nebraska has become well nigh con
fiscatory as a result of an archaic and inequitable tax
structure. At present, property owners are carrying the
burden of state and local government. All should pay
their fair share.
A replacement tax is needed at the state level for stale
expenses and as an aid to the school system.
At present property owners are carrying too large a tax
load. To insure that everyone pays his fair share of tax,
a replacement tax—not an added tax—to be selected by
the Legislature is necessary as an avenue to provide rev
enue for state needs. This will eliminate property taxes
at the state level and should reduce taxes at the local
level. Real estate taxes can then be reduced 20 to 25
percent.
Constitutional roadblocks should be removed to permit
tax reform.
So as to make certain that any tax passed by the Legis
lature will be only a replacement tax instead of an addi
tional tax, the voters should approve L.B. 7 which pro
hibits any sales or income tax or some such combination
being passed except as a replacement tax first at the
state level.
On Roads:
%
The road program should be intensified and developed
with emphasis upon Permanent. Primary and Secondary
and all-weather Farm to Market roads.
Plans are already underway for toll roads. Toll roads
provide the best highways without cost to the taxpayer.
Secondary and all-weather farm to market roads are
essential to the state’s economy. Without them, farmers
cannot market. The priority and placement of improve
ments in new road construction should be left, in some
degree, with those who are going to use the roads. Road
re-location should not be harmful to local communities
nor disrupt local highway economy. The state engineer’s
office should furnish consulting service when and where
requested by local authorities. Too much emphasis is
placed upon the element of traffic count in determining
the need for highway improvements. Low traffic count
roads are entitled to timely improvement. The state
should provide sufficient funds to match Federal aid
available to Nebraska.
On Schools:
Nebraska's children should have full educational op
portunities.
Voluntary redistricting of schools should be encouraged
to promote better and more economical education. There
should be an improved teacher’s retirement system, and
any other possible teacher’s welfare program. Surpluses
from the replacement tax should be, under Legislative
direction, plowed back to the school system.
On Natural Resources:
The State's natural resources should be further formu
lated. instituted, promoted and protected.
The state’s support of soil and water conservation pro
grams being pioneered in Nebraska should be contin
ued. Systematic management of the state’s priceless wa
tershed land, permitting maximum local control in con
servation matters, is essential. Such is the plan now
being supported by the Eisenhower administration. Ir
rigation districts should be formed at local levels and
coordinated with the Missouri River program. Recrea
tional facilities should be fostered, promoted, developed
and improved where and whenever possible throughout
Nebraska.
On Farming & Labor:
Nebraska agriculture products should be processed in
Nebraska by Nebraska labor for a diversified economy.
Nebraska needs a more diversified economy. This can be
furthered by processing Nebraska farm products in Ne
braska. Already this has been accomplished to a certain
extent by alfalfa mills moving into the state where the
crop is growing. This provides local employment for
many, many Nebraskans. The same thing can be ac
complished with wheat, corn and other agricultural pro
ducts with proper leadership, foresight, and initiative.
Industrial and agricultural research should be encour
aged, fostered and developed.
On State Institutions:
More attention should be given to state institutions.
Underpaid employees do not make for the best of care
in our state institutions. Institutional facilities should
be improved and coordinated as between institutions to
provide the best possible care, confinement and rehabili
tation.
On State Budget:
All necessary budget requirements should be held to a
minimum. The state—like private business—should re
ceive dollar value for dollar expended, in state pur
chasing.
On Youth
Individualism and Spiritual development in Youth
should be encouraged.
After all is said and done, the most important resource
in our state is the youth of the state. Hence, individual
ism and spiritual development in youth should be en
couraged. The best way to encourage these characteris
tics is by leadership based upon Christian ideals and
moral integrity rather than upon dollar values. In the
matter of juvenile delinquency, preventive is far better
than punitive law enforcement.
