Arrested Today
Discovery of John Noddleman of
Theft of Fishing Net Leads
to Capture of Man.
From Thursday's Dally
This morning John Noddleman,
resident along the banks of the Mis
souri river near King Hill discovered
the man that had stolen a fishing net
from his place and who also has been
connected with the robbery ind the
burning of the hunting lodge of
Richard Hoy, of Omaha, located near
King Hill.
On Monday the hunting lodge of
Mr. Hoy was burned and the con
tents were supposed to have gone up
in the fire until the discovery of a
man named Anderson who had pos
session of the fishing net of Mr. Nod
dleman and who later was found ot
have the property from the Hoy
place.
Mr. Noddleman had missed the net
and as he had permitted the man An
derson to stay around his place a
great deal he suspicioned the man
and securing a boat of a neighbor
he set out down the river to try and
locate Anderson. He saw Anderson
at a camp he had made along a creek
south of King Hill and visiting the
camp discovered that the missing net
was there. Mr. Hoy arrived on the
scene a snort time later as Ander
son was being taken to the Noddle
man home and then located a part

Sixty-Three
Per Cent of Corn
is Now Safe
Eighty-Seven Percent Will Be Past
Harm by Oct. 1 Fall Plow
ing Well Advanced.
Approximately 63 per cent of Ne
braska's corn crop is now out of
danger from frost and 87 percent Is
expected to be matured enough to
escape injury by Oct. 1 according to
bankers in their Sept. 20 report to
the state and federal division of agri
cultural statistics. Fall plowing for
wheat is well advanced, and some
fourth cuts of alfalfa have been har
vested. Farm prices generally show
some improvement and with hogs and
alfalfa showing fair gains over last
month. A reduction is shown in the
number of cattle and sheep to be fed
this season as well as in the num
ber of cattle now being milked.
Nearly 40 percent of the 1930 corn
crop was still susceptible to fro3t
damage on Sept. 20 and only 87 per
cent is expected to be matured suffi
ciently to escape damage by Oct. 1
according to bankers. The crop has
not been able to overcome the two
to three weeks handicap with which
it has had to deal during the entire
season. Recent drying weather, how
ever, has helped to bring it to ma
turity. The percent of corn matured
ranges from 86 percent in the south
western counties to only 43 percent
in the southeastern section but bank
ers expect 74 percent to be matured
in this section by Oct. 1. It i3 the
general opinion that about 5 percent
to 8 percent of the corn over the
state is too late to escape injury from
frost if left in the field to mature
for grain. However much of this will
no doubt be used for fodder and In
Eilos. The supply of corn is generally
ample for normal feeding operations.
The entire state is now supplied
with sufficient moisture which has
improved late pastures and helped
fall plowing and seeding. Over 1
percent more fall plowing had been
completed by Sept. 20 than by mid
September a year ago. Late cuttings
of alfalfa hay have been good. Re
ports from many counties indicate'
substantial yields from fourth cuts
Good yields of alfalfa with prices but
slightly below those of last year has
made the crop one of the most profit
able crops this year.
The present indications on cattle
and sheep feeding are that fewer will
be fed this season, but with a bright
er outlook for well fed cattle during
the coming months it is possible that
farmers will exceed present inten
tions. Farmers now expect to feed
only 83 percent as many sheep as
were fed last season. The corn sup
ply is sufficient and hay is plentiful
in every part of the state with sub
stantial surplusses indicated in many
counties.
A decrease of 8 percent in the num
ber of cows milked at the present
time as compared to this date last
year is estimated by bankers. The
decrease which is general over the
state due to the drop in prices of but
terfat products may be made up with
an improvement in prices. The est!
mated price of butterfat is 37 cents
a pound as compared to 33 cents last
month.
TURKISH PREMIER RETURNS

who resigned Thursday night as

Ismet wanted monetary reform

Ismet will go into the new cab

State Officers in Checking Up Travel
and Rule Violations Add
Much to Safety
From Saturday's Dally
This morning Harry Ayers, repre
sentative of the state department
of public works was in the city
checking up the traffic through this
city and vicinity, this being a sec
tion of the law enforcement that is
in the hands of the department of
public works.
This department has more than
paid its way in the collection of fines
and fees for violations o fthe motor
vehicle laws and their supervision
has had the tendency to make travel
safer for the public who are using
the roads of the state each day, be
cause the strict check of the motor
ist cuts down the reckless driver and
the one that is needless of the pub
lic safety.
Mr. Ayers called attention to a
number of the phases of the state
law in regard to the use of the high
way, by motorists, among them be

LEAGUE PROVIDES INQUIRY
Stockholm The League of Nations
has appointed an international com
mission consisting of Bascomb John
son, an American writer; cnaries
Pindor, a Polish diplomat; and Dr.
Alma Sundquist, a Swedish woman
physician, to inquire into the white
slave traffic. The report is to be
ready in 1932.
The white slave traffic in the
orient will be the first field of obser
vation. It is- expected that women's
organizations as well as the gov
ernment and medical authorities in
various countries will' furnish the
commission with all possible aid and
information. Johnson has studied
similar conditions in South America.
