County Board
Repeals Former
Resolutions
Board Votes to Withdraw Plan to
Allow Service Charge on Coun
ty Fund Deposits
From Wednesday's Pally
The hoard of county commission
ers at their session yesterday took
up a matter that has for the past
several months heen a cause of much
worry to the county hoards over the
state, that of the payment of a serv
ice charge for county funds deposited
in hanks as checking accounts. The
hoard some time ago passed a resolu
tion that there would he a reduction
allowed the hanks in the interest
rate to he paid the county on its
funds, the hanks putting up honds
for the covering of the deposits
which they repaid yesterday and
the matter remains as before.
The hanks have claimed that th
payment or the interest rate and the
cost of securing bonds to cover eoun
fy deposits was not profitable to the
(tanks and for this reason they asked
that the county pay a service charge
through reduction of the interes
rate so that the banks could handle
the funds.
To help straighten out the dis
mite that lias raged since the suit
filed by the banks over the payment
of an assessment in the bank guar
an tee has been in court, the boon
was willing to do all possible to se
cure a place to deposit their funds
but this was shattered by the opin
ion of the state- auditor that the
payment of a service charge was un
authorized and that this amount so
deducted would be charged against
the treasurers in counties as a short
age.
As the matter now stands the
banks and oun'y are where they
were in the beeinning with the
county expecting the regular inter
est on their deposits and the banks
supplying the bonds as asked. It is
expected that the matter may be
ironed out here as in Otoe county
whore deposits are being alloted the
banks as usual, interest being paid
and bonds supplied.

HAS A FINE VISIT
From Tuesday's Pally
Last evening Edward,- Ahrens. of
Rapid City, South Dakota, departed
for his home after a visit for several
days at the home of his brother, Ern
est Ahrens, one of the well known
and highly esteemed residents of Ne
hawka. The visit was one of the
rarest pleasure as the brothers had
not met for some seventeen years and
found the event one of great hap
piness as they visited over again the
younger years. Edward Ahrens
formerly resided near Wyoming, in
Otoe county, before he located in
the Black Hills. Mr. Ahrens was
brought to this city by his nephew,
Fred Ahrens and took the tran here
for his home at Rapid City.

Delegation Here Tuesday to Seek
Means of Extending Gravel Pro
gram in Precinct
TABULATING CRIME
The residents of South Uend pre
cinct are to launch a movement seek
ing to have a graveled highway in
that precinct extending from the
Louisville precinct line northwest
through South I5end and then on to
ward Ashland where it will come
within two miles of the D. I,. I), high
way. To further the cause of the gravel
ing program there was a delegation
here vesterday afternoon to inter
view the county coir.rniisoners in re
gard to the matter and which was
headed by Mayor William J. O'llrieii
of South Uend and with him were
M. K. Hushnell, James Fidler. Wil
liam Richards. George Vogel,, n. y.
Dill. Jacob Carnicb- and Oscar Dill.
The plan that will be adopted will
be similar to that in the other pre
cincts that have secured graveling.
having a petition circulated and
which must have the signatures of
fifty-one per cent of the resident
property owners of the precinct. This
petition will call for the levy of a
tax in the precinct to raise the cost
of half of the graveling and which
will be matched by the commissioners
if the proposition is carried. Owing
to the fact that the amount to be
raised for the nine miles of rpad
cannot be secured on a on' vear lew-
it is thought that the proposition
would have to be divided over a two
year period.
The gravel boosters will bet busy
at once and try and have the proposi
tion all lined up for the opening of
the spring season.
The International Association of
Police Chiefs has began the first sys
tematic attempt at tabulation of
crime over made in this country.
An effort is to be made to interest
all states in collecting crime statistics
in rural communities. Monthly re
ports are to be prepared by the polke
departments of all cities in order to
make readily available authoritative
information on crime throughout the
entire nation. These are to be sup
plemented by annual reports deal
ing with different phases of the
crime problem.
The value of this program is in
estimable. The police department is
society's first defense against the
criminal and its efficient function
ing is the nation's surest safeguard.
The police have been hampered in
past years because of the dearth of
authoritative crime statistics and re
ports. The actual causes of crime
have remained undetermined.
It may be observed that of all
gicat nations we have given our po
lice the least chance to succeed in
their fight against crime. There is
nothing in the United States to com
pare with Scotland Yard or the Paris
S'irete, with their amazing facilities
for the collection of information and
their use of the most advanced methods.
j Now that our own police are mr.k
jingan intensive effort to better thrir
! own work great results may be -x-Ipected.
It is the certainty of detection
i and punishment that suppresses
! crime and well informed police de
partments are worth more than vol
I times of restrictive laws which in
fringe on the lights of the law-abid
ing fitiens. to the actual advantage
of the criminal who obevs no laws.
