Capitol News*
LINCOLN — State officials are
pleased with the turnout of week
end visitors to the Capitol.
Rttoert Newell, superintendent
of buildings and grounds, says
on 27 weekends in 1961, 32,514
persons toured the state’s famous
building. During all the week
days of 1960 only 29,166 persons
toured the Capitol, Newell said.
He added that the number of
visitors on the weekends in 1961
justifies keeping the building op
en ail day Saturday and 9un
day, the year round.
However, Newell hastened to
comment that budgetary prob
lems would be a factor in year
round operation.
As a sample, Newell picked a
weekend when the weather was
bad. He counted 240 visitors on
a Saturday and 257 on Sunday,
from Nebraska, Canada, Florida,
Wisconsin, Minnesota and Colo
rado.
“That proves tourists come
here the year round,” Newell
said, “not just in the summer.”
The Capitol is open from 2
p.ra. until 4 p.m. on Saturday
and Sundays.
Many people visit the structure
on weekdays but Newell said
these are not counted whereas
on weekends his staff keeps a
tally of the sightseers.
In another area, the superin
tendent reported his work crew
is busy daily cleaning Nebraska’s
most famous building. The latest
to get the soap and water treat
ment is the east lounge hearing
room, used for meetings especial
ly during the Legislature.
Safety Officer
The State Highway Department
has a new safety officer. He is
Fred C. Smith who will work in
the maintenance section of the
department.
Smith, according to State Engi
neer John Hossack, will review
and record personal injuries,
equipment and property acci
dents, conduct safety practice
education, and inspection and en
forcement of safety practices and
undertake special studies for the
maintenance office.
A division engineer since 1927,
Smith is a veteran of nearly 40
years for the maintenance office.

Welfare Commitment
Atty. Gen. Clarence Meyer has
ruled that the State Welfare De
partment must accept any child
committed to it by a juvenile
court in Nebraska whether there
is adequate room for the young
ster or not.
In the past, several counties
and some private groups have
been caring for children commit
ted by the courts until they could
be put in a home.
But Meyer said the State Wel
fare Department must assume
this responsibility and bear the
cost of sending the children to
boarding homes pending entry in
to the Children’s Home at Lin
coln.
The Home is operated by the
State Welfare Department.

Frank Woods noted that the
