State Capitol News Ress-Nelson Locked Over Amelia Spur (Special to The Frontier) The Nebraska state highway advisory commission once again was embroiled in controversy— with members of the legislature as well as with some irrate citi zens. At its regular meeting, the commission was faced by un happy state senators who wanted roads in their districts put back on the state highway system. This has been a sore subject i since the 1955 legislature chopped some 900 miles off the system. An j unsuccessful effort was made in the legislature this year to put some of the roads back. Sen. Frank Nelson of O'Neill, | who led the legislative move for expanding the state road network, reminded the commission of a legislative resolution asking fa vorable action on requests for ad ditional state roads. Nelson, backed by a delega gation from Amelia, wanted 2.6 miles spur from state highway 11 eastward into Amelia restored to the state system. State Engineer L. N. Ress jumped to his feet to oppose, and reminded Nelson he (Nelson) had opposed the gas tax increase in the recent legislative session. Nelson said he had good and sufficient reason for all of his voting. He pointed out that the chop-off of 1955 had caused a net loss of 45 miles of state maintenance in Holt county alone—or, the way it worked out, 10 percent of the cut back in the state. "I can’t very well vote for tax increases when service to my peo ple is less,” he told the commis sion. One commissioner asked Nel son if Holt was participating in federal aid road work. Nelson said no, but said there was rea son. "To build an 11-mile stretch of road on a federal matching basis in eastern Holt county would have cost SO-thousand-dollars and neces siated a 40-thousand-dollar bond issue. This was several years ago. ‘‘In a county as big as Holt, where mail route mileage is over one thousand miles alone, it is not likely the entire county would go for a bond Issue to benefit a particular section of the county. ‘‘The county built a suitable road with its own funds and with contributions from people living in the area affected. The cost was about 15-thousand-doUars. The supervisor in the district con cerned later said if he had had another 10-thousand-dollars he could have had a road that would rival the federal specifications— yet cost only a fraction as much. Nelson said he hoped the illus tration would answer the federal aid inquiry. To qualify for federal aid the county must hire an engineer and the upgraded specifications run in to considerable money, the sena tor said. Ress barked that Holt has “very well” in getting new road construction the past few years. Nelson agreed, but reminded that for 15 years there had been virtually no new road building. Rev. Francis Price, pastor of the Catholic church at Amelia, told the commission the spur is in such bad shape his parishoners — about half of them—usually take to driving in the ditches. Ress admitted the elevation on the spur was some of his own work, and couldn’t understand how that could be. ‘‘Let’s run up and look at the tracks,” the priest suggested. Nelson said new blacktopping on highway 11 shortened the gra vel stretch and would enable the maintainers to work the Amelia spur with little expense. Nelson also pointed out to the commission that when the 900-mile chop-off package was sold to the legislature the savings was to be $700 per mile. "Now, the high way department tells us the sav ngs turns out to be only $400 per mile. "These are some of the things that influence my voting on gas tax increase measures,” Nelson expained. • • • Relocation— A question of whether to relo cate state highway 2 between Un adilla and Syracuse was kicking up much of the fuss. Although it is a local matter, the outcome could affect highway construction all over the state. At issue is a proposal of the state highway department, al ready approved for federal funds, to reroute part of the road on a di agonal. This means it would split several farms. Opposition from owners of the farms took on additional force when they enlisted help from farm groups and other organiza tions in fighting the new route. As a result, the highway com mission has taken another look at the project. It will decide at its July 22 meeting whether to re consider last year’s 4-3 approval of the relocation. The turning point in the com mission's deliberation came last spring when opponents of the new route appeared in force at a commission meeting. Another large delegation was on hand to urge action no matter where the road was to go. The opposing groups were told to “go home and get together on a location.” Now representatives of both sides have come back to the com mission with a “compromise" plan they are agreed upxin. It calls for a bypass around Unadil la, then following the present route to Syracuse. This satisfied the aggrieved landowners. Rut State Engineer L. N. Ress vigorously opposed the compromise calling it “the most expensive route you could pick out.” The present locaton is subject to flooding, Ress said, and could not be improved to the neces sary standards. So the highway commission now finds itself between the high way department and the united citizens of Unadilla and Syracuse. In deciding whether 1o reopen the location question, the com mission will be deciding, in ef fect, whether road locations are to be based on the engineering determinations of the highway de partment or on the wishes of the local community. It also could show how much force organized farm groups might have in determining future road location. Another important issue at stake is whether the principle of diagonal roads will be followed in the state when that provides the shortest and least expensive route. Sens. David Tews of Norfolk and J. W. Burbach of Crofton al so asked for more mileage on the state system. They wanted state maintenance of a road leading to Lewis and Clark lake behind Gav ins Point dam. which is attract ing growing numbers of motor ists. Tews introduced a bill this ses sion to abolish the highway com For Lowest Prices for tree trimming and tree removal. See: FRED BABUTZKe or don McDermott.

This would lx1 considerate than Gov. Victor Anderson lier estimate that the levy . '>ive to he lxx>sted as muc nine percent, or about three-Q*^^ ters of a mill. 1 If cited a $6 i)*™ lion increased in the state genoi fund as the reason. A quarter-mill raise was pre dicted by the Nebraska citizens council after analyzing the bud get just passed by the legislature Tins would put the state levy at $8.34 per 1.1XX1 valuation. as compared with $8.09 tlus year. Council Director Robert Arm strong said a one-cent-a-pack in cigarette taxes and a drop of ,35 null in the state building levy will make up some of the addi tional revenue needed for the gen eral fund. Some capital tax experts were holding out hope that the state boaixl of equalization. which meets in August, can avoid rais ing the levy at all. Non-tax money, such as unex pended balances and drivers li cense fees, migh make up enough to get by without a tax increase. The tax men were cheered by indications that the state property valuation this year will not drop from a year ago. Slight valuation dips were shown by the first counties re porting to the state tax commis sioner. But those were rural areas hard hit by drought. Tax officials expected these re ductions to be offset by increas ed valuations in larger counties with growing industrial and com mercial property. pi '"7 the! i elude Sn Bedfim.

MABEL McKENNA, Notary Public My commission expires February 20, 1959 —————————————" ~~~ "-•« “BROMUS” Mr. Farmer! ! ! Many of our farmer friends and customers who have Bro mus fields that may be harvested for seed have inquired of us what the market situation may be for the 1957 crop. It is impossible at this time to quote any definite price, as then are so many unknown factors at this date. The total har vested and the yield per acre will of course determine the price of the 1957 crop. The cheap price of Orchard Grass and other pasture and hay grasses will also be a factor effecting the Bromus market, but following the high price that Bromus reached during the 1956 season it may be expected that it will be a profitable seed crop, although present prospects are for a larger crop in the U. S. this year. It is too early to know anything definite about the Canadian crop, and that is al ways a large factor in Bromus market prices. We shall give Bromus growers the same service as we have in the past. We are equipped to give your seed proper care when delivered to us in the bulk direct from the com bines We will pay you the market price when the seed is de livered, or we will process the seed and bag it. If it seems advisable to you to hold your seed for a later market, you may do so. We will buy your seed at whatever market price is whenever you decide to sell. Seed sold to us at anytime during the buying season, there is no charge for processing, bags etc. The formentinned policy applies to Sweet Clover, Alfalfa Bed Clover or any grass seeds that you may harvest and sell. We do contracting work on share basis on Bromus, Alfalfa Sweet Clover and grass seeds. We have our own Combines j with experienced operators. We also carry the following Farm Chemicals: Aldrtn, Hepta chlor, Toxaphene, .Walathlon, Dieldrin, DDT. SEE OUB PRICE BEFORE YOU BUY.
