BANDIT CHIEF SURRENDERS public schools gave him a valuable insight into the requirements of a business college. It 1b a very unusual thing for a business college to be provided with the facilities that the Hastings Business College now has since se curing its own building.

GERMAN PLANE IN PANAMA Colon, Panama For the first time since ex-President Coolldge Issued on February 18 an order setting forth principles governing flight of foreign aircraft over the canal zotfe, a German-owned and operated amphibian plane, the C-33 of the Skadta com pany, landed in Cristobal Harbor Wednesday afternoon. The machine came from Columbia where the Ger mans have been operating a freight and mall service for Borne time. Because of the Panama-United States treaty of 1903 the American authorities hitherto have refused landing privileges to foreign air planes. Exceptions were made only in the case of sporting flights, such as the Coste-Iebrlx venture. HOOVER HAS A TELEPHONE Washington President Hoover has departed from a white house precedent and a telephone now Is In stalled within arm's reach of his desk. Chief executives during the telephone age prior to Mr. Hoover's taking office rarely used a telephone, and when they did they talked eith er over one in a booth in a room ad joining the president's office or the one in the president's study on the second floor. Mr. Hoover's ideas regarding the activities of a chief executive are different, however, and because of his Increased use of the instrument he did not relish leaving his desk to reach it. Legislature Turns Down Bill for Paving Aid Eejects Measure Urged by Hon. Troy L. Davis for Relief of Cities From. 2,500 to 5,000 The measure Introduced in the state legislature by Hon. Troy L Davis of Weeping Water, Cass county representative for the relief of cities of from 2,500 to 5,000. in regard to the maintaining of state highways over paved Ftreets, was nicely headed throught the house of representatives at Lincoln yesterday when the rep resentative from Dawson county. Rev Hovis, proceeded to ask for a full detail of the bill and opened a battle on me measure mat developed a warm argument between the eastern and western members of the legis lature. The meai-ure was one that would cover a situation that exists here on Sixth street for the two blocks from Vine to Pearl where heavy traffic has caused a great deal of damage to the paving. The bill provided that in cities of from 2,500 to 5,000, highways may be maintained solely by the depart ment of public works in its discre tion. Under the present law the de partment maintains highways in towns of up to 2.500, while cities above that class do the maintaining. iir. Davis stated that there are In Nebraska seventeen cities of from 2,500 to 5.000 but that the bill is intended only for those near the populous centers. Plattsmouth, in his district, is heavily traveled by trucks going to and from Omaha The pavement, he said. Is paid for by owners of abutting property and that in many cases,, tnese owners are poor people. Heavy truck traf fic has worked a hardship, he also pointed out, on these property hold ers in that they must bear the cost of repaying. The bill would make it optional witn tne departments as to whether or hot It shall assist. Pays His Compliments. In opposing' th bill and moving that it be indefinitely postponed. Hovls of Dawson paid his compli ments to O street, Lincoln. "It's the worst stretch of highway in the state, he declared, "and next comes main street In Plattsmouth." The department of public works. he said, has something more im portant to do than replace worn out pavement in cities. He added that he is sick of seeing everything In way of legislation being for the benefit of eastern Nebraska with nothing for the west portion. Andrews of Lancaster approved the bill as a step in the right di rection. O'Malley of Greeley, took a direct poke ut the measure when he said: "Who sustains the city of Lincoln? It Is the university, the capital and the several other state Institutions. These institutions are maintained by tax assessments against the people In all sections of the state. We give you the money you think you ure giving back in good roads and other things. You couldn't have any pav ing in Lincoln and you wouldn't have any paving in Omaha but for the people out in the state who sup port the institutions and who go to these two cities to spend tehir money." The reference to main street made by the DawBon representative was apparently without Investigation as the main street here Is one o. the best in the state. GOES OVER SITE FOR VETS' HOSPITAL Lincoln.
