Sec. of State
Gears for
May Election
By Melvin Paul
Statelimiso Correspondent
The Nebraska Press Association
LINCOLN Secretary of State
Frank Marsh is gearing his office
for the hectic weeks before the
March 11 deadline for candidates
to file for the May election.
Activities are on a much wider
range than recording the names
of those seeking public office I
which in itself is a big task.
Marsh says he has scheduled
meeting with county clerks and
with companies that supply elec
tion materials to the counties.
County clerks will be briefed on
election laws and changes made
by the last Legislature and will |
be given an opportunity to clear j
up any problems they have. Marsh
said.
The meeting with suppliers is to j
standardize forms ami voter in
structions.
Mai'sh says all counties get their

ballots and other election materi
als from a few firms that specia
lize in this activity.
The secretary of state certifies
ballots and names that go on
them at the state level, but there
are also county and local elections
It is these areas which produce
cooperation between Marsh and
the county officials so that a stan
dard approach is kept as to how
ballots are printed.
The secretary certifies the bal
lot to county clerks 45 days be
fore the general election, or on
September 24, and 50 days before
the primary, on March 21.
I’alient Costa
The increase in the cost of liv
ing has caught up again with
counties who send patients to the
state mental hospitals.
The Board of Control announced
that on March 1 it wiO cost
counties $5.30 per day for each
patient kept in mental hospitals
at Norfolk, Lincoln and Hastings
and the Nebraska Psychiatric In
1 sotute in Omaha.
The old rate was $4 80. At the
Beatrice state home, the cost will
! go from $2.35 to $2.50 per day.
Under state law, the Board of
Control figures how much it costs
to keep a patient in the hospitals
for one day, and then bills the
counties for the days someone
j from a particular county is in a
| mental institution.
Counties then set a levy by law
to raise the money to keep county
1 residents in the institutions.
TTie board said it regretted the
increase but added that is is ne
cessary, despite the fact that the i
number of patients in the mental1
institutions has dropped by about I
S00 in the last five years.
There has been no correspond
ing reduction of staff feasible, the
board said, and cost of utilities, j
maintenance and other similar
items has not declined, regardless i
of the number of patients in an
institution.
Decision of the board to in
crease the per diem costs was un
animous. The counties pay to the
state about $15 million every two
years for patients they have sent |
to the institutions.
J»hR»nn KotlrM
A familiar figure in the state
house has retired. He is Gus John
son of Ceresco. who for 17 years
headed the bond and trust fund
division of the state treasurer s of
Hce.
Gus drove daily for 17 years the
40-mile round trip to the Capitol
from his home, a total of more
than 203,000 miles.
The 74-year-old will devote his
time to a real estate and insur
ance business in Ceresco, he said.
Gus served under State Treas
urers Carl G. Swanson, Edward
Gillette, Prank B. Heint7e, Ralph
W. Hill. Bertha I. Hill and incum
bent Richard Larsen.
Cranium
Abaut five years ago "uranium
fever hit Nebraska, not as an U-1
Iness but as a yen to hunt fur the
valuable ore.
Dr. Eugene Reed. head of the
Conservation and Survey Division
of the University of Nebraska,
said all the prospecting failed to
turn up a commercial find.
Interest waned, Reed said, be
cause of the low content of urani
um discoveries in this state. He
said some were made in the north
eastern part of the state in Mack
shale along the Missouri River.
Similar finds were reported in
the southwestern corner of Ne
braska in the Republican River
Valley, also in black shale forma
tions
There were a few discoveries in
southeastern Nebraska but in all
cases, Heed Stud, quality was too
low to merit development.
School iamehtHt
More Nebraska children are pan
ticqmuiq; in school lunch pixv
grams.
That's the word from the State
Department of Education.
Last year there was a six per
cent hike in the number of sehixals
having hot lunches while the total
of children taking advantage of
them climbed 12.5 per cent.
The department said 486 schools
provided lunches last year for
70, 925 children. The sehix>ls got
$740,281 in federal funds to help
finance the projects.
