Primary. Secondary
Roads Are Vital—
US. Sen. Carl Curtis (R-Nebr.)
said Tuesday he does not want
a super interstate highway pro
gram which will de-emphasize the
needs for primary and secondary
roads in Nebraska vital to our
local economy.
“Our normal business activi
ties and good local communication
must be preserved,” said Curtis.
“At the same time we must pro
tect the future welfare of thou
sands of small businesses in Ne
braska, so that large national net
works cannot pre-empt business
opportunities along an interstate
highway system.”

Unicam Makeup to Be Changed
LINCOLN — Another move is
underway to change the makeup
of Nebraska’s unicameral legisla
! ture.
This time^ however, it will be
primarily to enlarge the legisla
ture, with no attempt to change
its non-political makeup There
have been several attempts to al
ter the system, set up in 1937.
But most of them have includ
ed a return to partisan member
ship, and the old two-house sys
tem. In the past, political parties
have been involved in some of
the moves.
The latest planning, however,
originated with CIO labor unions
Sources say the thinking is to in
clude all unions if possible, and
other statewide groups.
The sponsors want also to re
district the state, give senators
higher pay and expense allow
ances.
Now, the legislature is compos
ed of 43 senators, elected every
two years on a non-political
ticket. They get paid $872 per
year with no expenses except
once to and from Lincoln during
a session.
In the past, the redistricting
matter has come before the leg
islature, but was unsuccessful.
Since the 43 districts were set up.
many have grown by leaps and
bounds, with the result that some
senators have a tremendous num
ber of persons to represent while
others have less or about the same
as in the past.
Sources say thinking is that a
larger legislature would be more
effective, and possibly more
friendly toward labor.
The sponsors must obtain 41.484
signatures by July 5 The change
ir. the legislature requires a con
stitutional amendment.
The fact that in the past the
legislature has turned a deaf ear
to changing its makeup, salaries
or districts, probably is the rea
son the matter is being taken di
rectly to the people.
* * *
Expense Law—
Among the matters coming up
at every primary is that of the
filing of campaign expense reports
by candidates.
By law, they have 10 days af
ter the primary to make the fil
ing, but the statute, in effect,
can’t be enforced except for the
persons nominated to be on the
November general election ballot.
Those nominated can be forced
to file reports or their certificates
ot nomination could be withheld
by Secretary of State Frank
Marsh. However, for persons not
nominated, there are no enforce
able provisions.
And, what the candidate lists as
expenses, often varies. Some list
their filing fee, others do not.
Some reports have no total, but
list individual items.
* * *
Names Again—
The question of the popularity
of certain names, especially Scan
dinavian or familiar ones, on the
Nebraska ballot isn’t quite over.
Both parties, democratic and
republican, are giving renewed
attention to the possibility of in- j
' dorsing candidates for office, in i
the primary election. David Mar-1
tin of Kearney, former GOP state
chairman, raised the question.
Martin said some of the candi
dates nominated in Nebraska’s
May 15 primary make a “travesty
on our system of choosing politi
cal candidates.’’ Said Martin: "On
both tickets, men were nominated
who are not qualified for the of- '
Lee they seek.”
"Nebraskans vote for names, j
not the man,” Martin concluded.
Martin suggested both parties
work for reenactment of the law
under which the parties indorsed
some candidates in pre-primary
conventions. This was intended as
a "guide” for voters.
The republican chaiiman, Wil
liam Spear of Fremont, says the
proposal certainly is worth dis
cussing. Willard Townsend of
Lincoln, acting democratic chair
man, said there has been some
justification for indorsements.
* * *
Right to Wotk Law—
Rtatehouse observers expressed
amazement at the speed with
which the U.S. supreme court dis
posed of the case involving rail
road unions and Nebraska’s “right
to work” law.
The Nebraska supreme court
had ruled that railroad unions
and railroads could not enter in
to agreements whereby an em
ployee' must join a union within
60 days after being hired, or
lose his job.
But the U.S. supreme court
reversed the Nebraska ruling.
The decision only applied to
railroads and railroad unions, but
observers regarded it as a serious
breach of right-to-work laws.
The nation's high court said a
state has the right to prohibit all
union shops.
But, it said, congress has the
power to regulate labor relations
in interstate commerce.
The case was argued before the
high court and a decision handed
down in 20 days, which state
house observers said was “unpre
cedented speed.'' Nebraska was
represented by Asst Attv.-Gen.
Robert Nelson.
* * *
Polio Vaccine—
A recommendation will be,
made by the state health depart
ment that Salk anti-polio vaccine
be made available to all persons
under 20 years of age this sum
mer.
The department will recom
ment to the state polio advisory
committee that booster shots be
delayed until fall in order to
make the vaccine available for
those in the new eligible group.
With the supply as large as it
is. the department said it is like
ly all children between 11 and
14 will have received two injec
tions by the end of June.
The sale of commercial supplies
of vaccine remains brisk and re
ports reaching the department of
fice indicate physicians are using
all they receive immediately.
The department said the supply
picture looks promising and if
rising production continues there
is a definite possibility the federal 1
government will be out of the
vaccine business by this fall.
Raising the age limit to those 19
but not 20 would make about
120,000 more persons eligible
