He explained that they would like

trons would sign a request for the
State Railway Commission that would
cause the granting of the rate de
sired by the company. Whether there
will be enought to sign the request
to influence the railway commission
in making the change remains to he

the increase in rates and many con
sider them plenty high.
Mr. Ojers said that there was to
be constructed a high power line

that the metalic circuit could care

The Proposed Changes.
The telephone rates obtained at
this time for Union are for the farm
lines, one dollar and twenty-five
cents per month, or $3.75 for three
months and the new rate for the
farm lines will $1.75 per month or
15.25 for the three months. The busi
ness phones are to be changed from
$2.00 to $3.00 while the residence
phone rates in town are in propor
tion. There are in the neighborhood
of 70 phones in Union and rif these
less than twenty are business house
phones.
RETURN FROM OUTING
Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Balfour and
daughter, Kathleen of Union, return
ed late Tuesday evening from a six

County Attorney Bernard F.
Lundt, and Deputy Warden Gray in
sisted that the Iowans b required

censes costing $10 each. Justice of
the Peace Chambers dismissed the
tow Owens on their promise to buy
licenses.
Sheriff Lainson of Council Bluffs
was indignant over the affair. One
of the shotguns seized by the Ne
braska game warden was Lainson's
property.
"Nebraska will pay dearly for' this
outrage," said the sheriff. "It has
been a custom for years that a hun
er in the Missouri river was in neu
tral waters or on neutral land and
could hunt "there as long as he had
a licenre for either state."
"A lot more hunters from Ne
braska edge over the channel to the
Iowa side than Iowans get on the
Nebraska side. I'm going to lay for
them. Our non-resident license fee
is $15. and our fines are just as stiff,
so Nebraska hunters better beware,"
warned Lainson.

RUSSIANS DELAY FLIGHT
Seatle Unfavorable weather was
believed by radio officials Monday to
have forced the Russian plane, Land
of the Soviets, to remain on Attu
island instead of hopping for Dutch
Harbor, Unalaska, as planned.
A radio message received here
from Captain Cochran, commander of
the coast guard Bering sea fleet, said
the plane was to leave Attu, most
westward of the Aleutian Islands, at
5:30 a. m., on the next leg of its
flight from Moscow to New York.
Lack of word on the takeoff led to
the belief that rain and fog had de
layed the start.
The Russians arrived at Attu Sat
urday from Petropavlovsk, Kamchat
ka, Siberia, after crossing Bering
strait. The scheduled flight of 752
miles from Attu to Dutch Harbor
Sunday was postponed because of the
weather. Conditions were unchang
ed Monday.
The plane left Moscow a month
ago Monday. After reaching Dutch
Harbor it has only one more hop to
bring it to the American continent
at Seward, Alaska. From Seward it
is to fly to Sitka, Alaska, and then
to Seattle, where its pontoons will
be replaced by wheels. The Russians
will go to New York by way of San
Francisco.
