Five State Officials Receive
Pa yHike Effective Next Term
Payhikers have been given by
the Legislature to four elected
state officials and one appointive
officer.
The lawmakers earlier had re
fused to boost the check of State
Engineer John Hossack who now
gets $13,500 per year. But they
passed 22-14, only one vote over
the minimum, a bill increasing
by $1,000 per year salaries for
the Secretary of State, Auditor,
Treasurer and Attorney General.
Beginning at the next term the
Secretary of State will receive
$9,000 per year as will the Audi
tor and Treasurer. The Attorney
General will get $11,500.
The Adjutant General, who
heads Nebraska’s National Guard,
got a pay boost of $3,400, from
$0,ti<K) to $10,(KM) per year. The
general also gets a salary from
the federal government.
Pay hikes cannot become ef
fective for the elective officers
during their current terms under
a provision of the State Constitu
tion.
Salaries are a continuing pro
blem of state government and
have been given careful consider
ation by the Legislature’s Budget
Committee. The committee’s re
commendations are expected to
come to the floor in about two
weeks. Some senators have ex
pressed concern about the pay
levels of the clerical and below
department head people in the
departments and the discrepan
cies among the various divisions
of government.
By law, elected officials get
their pay set by the Legislature,
with the exception of those de

boards, such as the State Board
of Education. The earnings of em
ployes in most cases, are fixed
by heads of state departments.
Crackdown
Gov. Frank Morrison says if
speed turns out to be the cause
of traffic accidents on the Inter
state Highway he will reduce the
limits under the 75 miles per
hour maximum.
The Legislature set the limit
and the bill was signed by the
governor. Morrison said he was
a “little disappointed” in the Le
gislature's action. He added that
if motorists comply with the
speed limit that would be all
right but studies have shown the
average of drivers arrested on
the Interstate has been 83 miles
per hour.
The governor also called on Ne
braskans May 30 and 31, during
the Memorial Day period to
drive with their lights on to call
attention to other drivers of the
necessity for caution in motoring.

HALF THE STORY
(The other-and even more
satisfying—half you'll
discover the first time you
drive a Corvair!)
And when we say “low
price,” we mean more than
merely the pint-sized figure
on the window sticker of a new Corvair.
You’re going to be saving like sixty on gas.
* And on the antifreeze you won’t buy next
winter, and the radiator repairs you’ll never
have to pay for. About the only things
Corvair doesn’t skimp on are room, smooth
ness, style and pure driving joy. But that's
the other half of the story. Talk to your
Chevrolet dealer about it soon!

127 North 4th St. O'Neill, Nebraska Phone 100
tion center through which new
ly sentenced prisoners could pass
survived its first floor test by a
substantial 116-4 vote.
The measure grew out of a Le
gislative study. The center would
be at the men’s reformatory in
the present cell block. A new
cell house is in planning stage.
Sponsors say the center wiill
enable prison and reformatory of
ficials to find out what an in
mate is like before he is thrown
in with other prisoners and help
to rehabilitate thcee who can
best be helped.
The new dormitory is expected
to cost $262,500 with funds com
ing from the Board of Control’s
share of the institutional building
fund. The only other expenditure
would be $20,000 per year for per
sonnel for the center.
Hospital Askings
Fourteen Nebraska hospitals
want $5.4 million in federal funds
to help finance projects totaling
$14 million for the 1962 fiscal
year.
The State Health Department
expects to get about $1.9 million
in funds. Priorities will be set by
the advisory council on hospitals
May 29.
Pharmacy Bill
Much mail and telegrams has
been received by State Senators
over a bill they passed regarding
pharmacy regulations. The pro
posal provides for the first time,
the licensing of pharmacy busi
nesses as such, with grounds es
tablished for revocation of licen
ses. Removed from present law
and no longer permissible under
the bill is a provision allowing
any person to compound drugs if
working under the supervision of
a registered pharmacist. Spon
sors of the bill said this had
been interpreted to mean super
vision by mail or telephone, in
extreme cases, and that the su
pervision should be immediate.
Under the new law, only licens
ed pharmacists or pharmacy in
terns will be allowed to compound
drugs. Excepted are those per
sons who have owned and oper
ated a pharmacy for 15 years.
They may continue to do so if
working under the direct and im
mediate Supervision of a regis
tered pharmacist.
Retirement
Five bills to extend retirement
benefits to segments of state gov
ernment were killed in committee.
They would have provided for
pension plans for employes of
the game commission, highway
department and municipal judges
and extended benefits for teach
ers. The only proposal surviving
committee action was one to per
mit Douglas and Lancaster coun
ties to set up retirement pro
grams for county employes.
