Capitol News - Nebraskans Need Protection From Groups Selling Promotional Land By Mrtvin Paul StaU-house Correspondent The Nebraska Press Association LINCOLN—Acting State Engi neer John Hossack has reported Nebraska has taken the right course in building the Interstate highway. Nebraska could have started the Interstate at its west ern border and thus wound up as one of the first states to have the super highway completed, he added. But, said the acting engine* r “we would have turned our backs on the critical highway needs." By coming from western Ne braska with the four-lane road, Hossack said, the state cruld have had 150 miles of the interstate built if construction had been con centrated between North Platte and the Wyoming border. Regarding gravel roads in Ne braska, Hossack said they can all be converted to dustless surfaces during the next six years if there is no change in allocation of fed eral money, availability of state money, stability of construction costs and if there are no size able additions to the system. Hossack said the next common plea may be for four-lane divided highways. He also suggested that the next Legislature establish some kind of a revolving fund to permit the advance purchasing of highway right-of-way in cases where a delay would make the property more costly. Retarded School The state school for the train able Mentnlly Retarded at Co zad has been the subject of con troversy. Tiiree Grand Island women broached the subject to Gov. Dwight Ourney. They said the governor should name a com mittee to investigate conditions at the school. Meanwhile, the director of the schools, Mrs. Amelia Wells, said she would welcome an investiga tion, but request that such a group stay long enough to get a complete picture. Mrs. Wells said of the complaining group, one never visited the school, one did before she was director and the other didn’t stay very long Gov. Burney said the school is under jurisdiction of the State Board of Control and any action should be undertaken by that bo dy Faculty Salaries The coordinator of a state-wide study of higher education says faculty salaries at the University of Nebraska are lower than the average paid in the region. Dr. Lyman A. Glenny said this finding is a part of a study to be explained to state senators Oct. 19 at a public hearing in the Capitol. Glenny was named by a committee of state senators to make the study after the 1959 Legislature voted $30,000 for the purpose. The coordinator said one Ne braska junior college and two pri vate colleges offer salaries high er than the regional average and these are at the instructor level. Glenny said his report will not make recommendations but will present how the state compares with others in the midwest. Real Estate Nebraskans should be protected from groups active in sale of j “promotional lands.’’ William F i Real Estate Commission, said promotional lands are those ad vertised m many southern and re sort states which state '$10 down and $10 a month buys the world's finest lot overlooking the Atlan tic ocean, etc.*’ Swanson said many “gullible Nebraskans have been taken in by this type of operation and the commission is hopeful that leg is lation can be enacted which will give better protection to our cit izens." Any proposal would be aimed at strengthening the real estate law and assuring better protection and service for the public, Swan son said. He added that the commission may recommend the 1961 Legis lature pass laws to protect Ne braskans from the promotional land schemes. State Parks It will take $7.9 million to bring the Nebraska park system up tc minimum requirements by 1970 State Game Commission Director Mell Steen says. Steen said the state mast meet that goal “for our own economic good, if for no other reason." Nebraska now has about 28,000 acres of land in the state park system. Steen says by all accept ed standards the system should have 42,000 acres right now. Inman News By Mr*. ,lames McMahan Mr. and Mrs. Jim Ferris and family of Atkinson were Satur day Inman visitors.
