Prairieland 1 alk — The Mother Is a Producer! By BOM AIN E SAI'NDERS. 1110 Stmth 51st St., Lincoln 6, N<-hr LINCOLN A New England household is said to have seven children. The oldest is three years jf age, ttu* next is two, then a year ago triplets, now a set of twin babies That mother is a pro ducer . . He burned to death in his hotel room in a Nebras ’ ka town smoking in bed! 4 . & She is from the deep South, the next step the salt waters of the Gulf Now seated at a desk in the Capital City, secretary to her laws She says si still i rebel fit &| heart but likes Nebraska and its people My sire fought the re lie la and his son is still a Prairleland Yankee. . . Bus drivers still on strik. no s»llmter» way to get from IJncoln to Grand Island and lieyond. unless you have the “down payment" for a car you can drive yourself. . . Are you on the social security payroll? A seven percent raise in pay is said to t o on the way. . A householder up the street resents cars being parked in front of her home shows it by rushing out to spit on the car. . .

I • village marshal in a small outstate town, the marshal using up 13 letters to spell his own name. The marshal turned the “escapees" over to the penitentiary so the gents are back in limbo again, thanks to that unknown village marshal out on prairieland. • * • Exploring the realms of dreamland a magaxlne writer tells about It in a four- nr five - page classical roundup of dreams. Dreams, lie said, are a sign of mental, emo tional or physical distress. If only a “sign" ami not the real thing, that's okay. But If you dream you have a million it would be nicer to have It the real thing and not just a ‘‘sign*’. • • • Report has it that the assessment value of Nebraska cattle Is up 30 percent over a year ago. Does that mean 30 percent more cattle or that much more tacked on your herds by assessors? But just how much faith should we have in the reports of experts? One day we were told living costs had dropped and the next day they came out with the statement that living costs jumped a notch or two. Anyway, I get my three ample feeds a day. • • • Life is real, has a place for all. J-ay a soothing hand upon a fevered brow, pluck the thorn from some human soul, lift the burden crushing a fellow traveler, do a little here, a little there, thus from the cradle to the grave that sad refrain of sorrow may be turned into a song. The next door neighbors on a visit to the picturesque hills of southern Missouri, other neighbor* a few doors away just back from Cal ifornia and now occupied mowing the landscape about their home, a job the gent hired to do it didn’t do. Another neighbor family, their little boy and girl my little friends, sold their Capital City home and are now gone to a distant state.

Food stores are plied high with the fruits, grains and vegetables with chunks of prulrieland beef piled on the shelves. So we live on the fat of the land. * * * The upper room of the old courthouse, built on upper Fourth street in O’Neill in the year 1884 ind recorded the history of Holt county from then until Judge Dickson’s new building came into the picture as the courthouse, at about fhis season election years was the scene of political activity, _ 1IL!_ J_ .. 1_•_ .. ii..:.. __1.* _ _ lii/UIUCi ^ UU'M unit, Ills II I'Ul l * * mmmmi • | the shining mantle of American patriots, their program providing all public needs, and the rep ; resentatives of the opposition political party ought all he sent to jail. This election year all is quiet, not a ripple on the political sea. Must hr the gents filling county, state and national of fices are doing a satisfactory job of it. * * * Lloyd Hurhut of our state university agri culture setup is one of a group of six who left Washington recently for Russia to take a look al farming as it is done by the Russians. Recent!) a group from that land of dictators visited Ne braska and maybe got a few tips on how to plow and plant and reap and how to brand a steer as we do it over here. The fellows now gone from our fair land to the Soviet Union will have a trip at your expense that adds nothing to our know ledge of our basic industry here on prairieland. * * * The night is past, another morning comes on the flight of time. I step out into the open. The things of nature invite us to pause a moment and look. Stately trees, their branches adorned in silken green, hang high above. Out beyond the silken green of earth far to the west glows the bright blue of another morning sky. The hot August days are gone, mild September comes and prairieland will soon exchange the robe of green for bright autumn colors. Autumn, the restful season, the fruits of summer toil gathered in, the calm of autumn nights, the bright glow of morning light, and the autumn day moves on toward the golden glow of sunset. Want to go to the moon? Let’s stay awhile on prairieland! Editorial— Alaska OK; Go Slow on Hawaii Although there was opposition to the admit tance of Alaska as the 49th state in the union, the battle is over and it behooves all of us to work for the greater union we now have accomplished. We have favored the addition of Alaska as a state although we do not favor the inclusion of Hawaii into the union as a state. Nor do we think it would be wise to add the Virgin Islands, or other territories as states. The Alaska case was a strong one. The people of that territory are of typical American stock and can be counted upon to be solid, loyal, and stable American citizens. What is more the average citizen of Alaska realizes what the United States stands for, the principles behind its formation, and the tradition and culture of the country. These qualities are important, for any nation needs unity and stability, and if a territory con tains too many divisive elements, or a majority of inhabitants whose interests might lie partially elsewhere, with other racial, historical and cul tural ties, the inclusion of such a territory might seriously weaken the union. For these citizens will naturally not cherish the ideals, traditions and customs which have made our democracy strong and which has made the world a better place in which to live. Peoples like individuals, must acquire the knowledge and responsibility of meeting their obligations in a modem democracy, a smoothly-functioning gov ernment of and by the people. So the gratifying admission of Alaska does not justify a lowering of the floodgates, so that other territories, not yet ready for statehood, will also be admitted under the momentum generated by the Alaska enthusiasts White House Double Talk A lot of double-talk eminates nowadays 'from the white house. First, President Eisenhower makes a series of appointments to the UJ5. supreme court. The court goes liberal and, on occasion, amends the con stitution instead of interpreting it. Chief Justice Warren an Ike appointee, is the liberal champion of them all. We refer to the historic integration edict of 1954, the unlocking of the FBI files case of 1957, and there are other decisions we could mention of the left-of-center stripe. There was the states rights issue at Little Rock, Ark., last September in which the white house ordered federal troops in to police a purely local and/or state situation. Last week President Eisenhower is quoted as saying the forces moving toward integration should go slow. Then Presidential Secretary James Hagerty a few days later makes the pronouncement the justice department is reflecting the administra tion's view in the segregation-integration matter. Meanwhile, a governor (Faubus of Arkansas), very obscure until the past year, heads a move ment to resist forced integration. When the high court and white house go all out to enforce in tegration, Faubus wins an overwhelming election victory and is given a virtually unanimous vote of confidence by the state legislature. Other southern states put into motion massive resis tance plans. There are more important and vital issues the white house might be concentrating on rather than responding to the pressures from such min ority groups as the National Association for Ad vancement of Colored People. Some NAACP lead ers are tainted by "isms’’ that are completely foreign to American tradition. Segregation of races in the schools is a part of the American tradition and might be resolved in time but not overnight and not by force. Crime Commission Needed US. Sen. John McClellan (Ark-D) has indi cated 4hat he thinks a permanent crime com mission in the federal government might be a good thing. Testimony before Senator McClellan’s senate committee in recent weeks and months has indicated that there is considerable thinking along this line. Obviously, no senate committee has the staff, nor the time, to investigate all of the petty crooks brought before it. However, when various gang sers, hoodlums, certain labor leaders, and others, are constantly invoking the Fifth amendment to protect themselves, obviously many of them bear watching and further investigating. A congressional committee cannot possibly perform this function. A crime commission, on the other hand, might do much in following up the revelations and indications which are produced by congressional investigating committees. This is not to say that all of those who would be investigated would be found guilty. On the other hand, the existence of a crime commission would add authority to congressional committees, for various hoodlums would know that their testimony might be decisive in a govern ment decision whether to investigate them or not. The investigations of a crime commission, of course, would have to be legal and would have to be less publicized than some of the melodrama we have been witnessing. How'ever, we think that such a commission could accomplish a considerable amount of good, and hope that it will materialize. Now that bumper agricultural crops have been assured it would help to make the year com plete if Bill Jennings could conjure up a means to win about half the football games for the University of Nebraska. We’re wondering if all the emphasis being placed on the state fair (more than 100.000 people went through the Lincoln turnstiles Sunday) isn’t a net detraction from county fairs most of which are having tough-sledding financially. Why is it our city does not maintain trash receptacles at convenient locations in the busi ness districts? Our streets sometimes are plain catch-alls of litter. ittgL Frontier CARROLL W.
