State Capitol News—
Million Gallons Whisky Downed
LINCOLN Some odds and ends
from the year-end date book
Nebraskans consumed a record
pile of cigarets in 1957, enough
to shovel $4.2 million into the
treasury in the statehouse—a new
high.
Without an added cent in tax
okayed by the legislature, State
house sources still feel the total
is a record.
An average of a gallon of hard
liquor per person, or 1.3 million
gallons, was consumed in the
state in 1957 (about 30% less than
the 1956 national average*.
Beer sold in Nebraska amount
ed to 21 4 million gallons in 1957.
j about 15 gallons per person aver
| age (just about the same as the
1956 national average*.
Twenty-three Nebraska airports
are scheduled for 26 improve
ment projects during the current
I fiscal year, at a total cost of $1.4
million. About half of this will
l>e federal funds.
Collections of the seven cent
tax on gasoline totaled $33.4 mil
lion in 1957, a million bucks high
er than in 1956.
A total of 89 Nebraskans died
in 1957 from influenza, the highest
since 1953. and 374 succumbed to
pneumonia as against 342 in 1956.
An office appliance firm pre
dicts Nebraskans will shell out
$22.1 million in 1958 for office
equipment and stationery.
State safety officers, although
disappointed in the high traffic
death count in 1957, posted the
year as the safest since 1949
when 258 persons were killed on
highways. The 1957 toll was 302.
And, a final one:
The game commission is
warming water in the Gremlin
I Bay area of the Harlan county
1 dam reservoir, to attract fish
to the warm yvell water pumped
in so as to boost success of ice
fishing.

School Aid—
If congress passed a federal aid
to education program as now
proposed, Nebraska could have
1 • i f ■ ee♦ nlocc eoeo n on itc VitiMrlo
This program, accoi'ding to
State Education Commissioner F.
B. Decker, would provide about
$5 million to Nebraska that would
have to be matched on a dollar
for dollar basis.
The federal program is to
lioost the number of science and
math graduates through a schol
arship program, under a state
federal financing program.
Gov. Victor Anderson, a leader
on the current committee of the
national governor’s conference
which is trying to eliminate un
necessary or new federal aid pro
grams and reduce present ones,
had no comment.
The governor, who also is an
advocate of a ‘‘hold the line”
state budget, said he could not
comment until he found out more
details on how the federal pro
gram would fit into the Nebraska
situation.
To raise $5 million in matching
funds, under the present valua
tion of property in Nebraska,
would require an extra $1.66 per
each $1,000 worth of property.

44-Hour Week
The trend to a 40-hour work
week for all state employees has
begun.
It was kicked off when the
legislature authorized the gover
nor to establish a 40-hour week
for capital employees.
This did not include workers in
the 17 state institutions under the
txiard of control. The board an
nounced that to cut its 48-hour
work week schedule by a full
day would cost too much money.
As a compromise, the board
i said a 44-hour week would bo
okay in state institutions if this
! could be worked out by the in
stitution chief so it would not
i cost the state any more money.
Mrs. Catherine Martin, board
j chairman, said it is not known at
the present time exactly how
many of the institutions will
adopt the shorter week.
She said some superintendents
feel that with complete coopera
tiAn nf oil nmnlotinoe tVimt AAiilzl
- -W-^-» --—
rearrange work schedules and by
eliminating some holidays, arrive
at a 44-hour wt'ek without spending
ing any additional money.
It is felt it will be only a matt
er of time before all state em
ployees will go to a shortened
work week.

Wheat Commission—
The state wheat commission
isn’t happy about a proposal of
the major railroads in the nation
for a three percent hike in rates
for hauling grain.
Leslie Sheffield, executive com
mission secretary, said the pro
posed hike would cost Nebraska
wheat growers an additional
$450,000 per year.
Sheffield said he also is con
cerned about the extra cent per
bushel increase proposed on
wheat shipments earmarked for
export from ports on the Gulf of
Mexico.
In the McCook area, Sheffield
said transportation costs total 50
cents per bushel on wheat to the
Gulf port area.
The railroads have applied to
the Interstate Commerce com
mission for the grain rate hike.
