Draws to a Close
Bets are even as to whether the
133 men of the Nebraska legislature
will run up a tota' of more than
1,000 bills before the time limit of
twenty days runs out this week. The
last two or three days always bring
an avalanche of new measures, some
times exceeling in i umber all that
have come before.
Up until "Monday. 332 proposed
law, constitutional amendments and
memorials to congress or to state of
ficers have been pr-sented in the
house, and two days yet remain for
additional offerings for that chamber.
The senate, with three days still to
go, had 148 bills on its file Monday
morning. This made a total of 470
in both branches.
During the week-end adjournment
from Friday till Monday most of the
members went home with the excep
tion of those chosen from both houses
to visit Arbor Lodge. Many of them
came back with bills wished onto
them at home or with newly acquir
ed which they will ask the legislative
reference bureau to work up into
short order bills for them.
Labor Measures to the Fore
In the house, the Gallagher mini
mum wage bill for women has been
made a special order for Wednesday.
It fixes J12 per week as the lowest
wage that may be paid by employers
of female workers. It is being boost
ed along by influential women and
sociological workers. Mrs. Blanche
McKelvey, of Omaha, was here to
speak for it at a committee hearing
on Thursday evening. It was erron
eously reported that Mrs. S. R. Mc-
Kelvie, of Lincoln, wife of the ex-
governor, had appeared on behalf of
the bill.
Another hearing will be held by
the labor committee Thursday after
noon on the bill of Representative
Elsasser of Omaha to soften the re
strictions of the anti-picketing law
enacted in 1921 and sustained in
the recent popular referendum which
will permit strikers to accost work
men and talk to them without hind-;
ranee, provided no intimidation nor;
coercion is practiced. As the law
now stands, persistent attentions or
strikers to men on the job, against
the will of the latter are forbidden.
Would Be-establish Co. Assessors
A measure
introdced by Repre-j
sentative Neff of Knox county, as H
R. 264, strikes out of the present
law the provision allowing the peo
ple of a county to vote on the ques
tion of abolishing the county assess
or's office. Its effect would be to re
establish that office in thirty-three
counties where it has been done away
with by popular mandate.
There is strong sentiment, on the
other hand, among members of both
the house and the senate committees
on revenue and taxation, for abol
ishing the county assessor's office in
all counties and turning the duties
over to the county clerk. The latter
now makes up the tax lists from as
sessment returns made to him by the
assessor.
The Osterman balanced income tax
bill will be considered at an open
hearing by the house committee on
revenue and taxation Thursday af

CONDITIONS IN
RUSSIA TOLD BY
RELIEF WORKER
6. F. Beschorner, Just Back from
There, Says Soviet Country on
the Boad to Recovery.
Conditions in Russia are much
btter and if t the improvement con
tinues Russia will be able to take
care of itself, according to Gustaf
F. Beschorner of Lincoln, American
relief administration inspector who
returned from Moscow and the Volga
valley, arriving in Lincoln Saturday
evenine. In the winter of 1921-22,
Mr. Beschorner says, 25 per cent ofj
the people in the Volga valley, Odes
sa and Ukrania districts died. The
condition is now immensely improv
ed due to American relief. The peo
ple who tried to leave the country
during the 21-22 winter, starved on
the border. The few who returned to
their homes had no seed or imple
ments and were worse off. than thuje
who had made no attempt to leave.
Mr. Beschorner was called to the
relief work by the national Lutheran
council and was engaged in the Hoik
of the American Relief administra
tion, later co-operating with workers
from every charitable and religious
organization. He 'had charge of a
district about the size of half the
state of Nebraska and - distributed
food, clothing and medical supplies
to 95,000 people.
Because of his position as a relief
worker, .Mr. Beschorner. refused to
discuss the Russian government, but
said that he believed that it was a
permanent institution, with changes
which must come about gradually.
"They have withstood the crisis,"-iie
said, "'and I am sure the government
will stand." He stated that the
communistic system has been largely
given up. the land and some of the
larger industries still being owned
by the'government.
Poor Railroads a Hindrance
"I've seen the horrors of famine,
people dying, dropping on the streets
exhausted." said Mr. Bescnorner in
rtoRrrihinir conditions when he first
arrived and before the relief organ
izations were able to function. The
failure to supply relief Immediately
was due to the inability of the Rus
sian railroads to carry the American
products. -
"No burial as we think some
times none at all," said Mr. Beschorn
er. Ten million people v were cared
for and 50 per cent of the people are
still dependent. Three and one-half
; million children received one meal
a day at me Kiicnen, anu tatu
adult was given one pound of corn
per day.
The American relief workers will
be in Russia until-the next harvest
when it is believed the. people will
be able to take care of - themselves.
One good crop and the crisis will be
passed, is Mr. Beschorner's opinion.
Mr. Beschorner was off United
States soil for exactly one year to
the minute. He sailed from New
York at noon on January 17, .1922,
and landed again at New. York at
noon on January 17, 1923. He left
Moscow December 7.

acceptance of Russia's offer of asy

shrewd piece of diplomacy, contem

return the Armenians must become
