Want Bridge Straightened The road running west from Green wood and which connects with a very good road a mile west of town in Lan caster county, was graded last fall and is ready for that lo:ig talked cf coat ing of gravel, which may be secured by the community matching dollars with the county. In this stretch of rcadway, there is a bridge that sets at an angle with the highway, over Salt Creek, making a dangerous place if the road is to be opened to exten sive all weather travel. The board of county commissioners was here last Wednesday to look over the ground and get an estimate on the cost of placing a new structure there in di rect line with the road and at the same time offering better drainage fa cilities when the creek goes out of its banks. The entire board, George Far ley, of Plattsmouth, E. B. Chapman, of Union, and Fred Gorder of Weep ing Water were here to personally In spect the bridge and go back prepared to make their recommendations. It is hoped that this piece of road can be hard surfaced in the near future, as it provides an inlet and outlet to the west, through connection at the county line with a Lancaster county graveled highway, and may eventu ally be a cut-off route to point3 west, connecting up with the S-Y-A high way northwest of Lincoln and elimi nating a good number ofmiles of traf- fic for those desiring to get to Grand Island and points beyond, by enabling them to turn off the D-L-D here, in stead of having to dip south to Lin coin some ten miles and then back north more than half that distance.

House Sustains Veto of Demo cratic Tariff President Hoover Sends Bustling Statement in Message of Re jection of the Bill. Washington. May 11. Reacting immediately to a presidential veto message that bristled with dentin ciations, the house today voted to up hold President Hoover's flat rejec ticm of the democratic tariff bill. Hardly had the chief executives blistering communk ation been "read than Representative Snell, the re onhli.an leader, confident that the slim democratic majority could not produce the two-thirds vote neces sary to override Mr. Hoover, demand ed a roll call vote. Representative Rainey, floor lead- er for th edoinoerats. knowing too the limitations of his party strength termed such action futile, but the roll call proceeded. The vote was 17S to override to IOC to sustain. Bead for This Session. Thus the democratic proposal that the president be stripped of his au thority to change import duties up on lecommendation of the tariff commission is dead so far as this ses sion is concerned. The measure pro posed that the commission report to congress for action by the national legislature. The president's rejection of the bill occasioned no surprise, but the bristling tone ft his message wa unforsecn. v He listed in detail four major ob jections against the house spouEored bill. But above any other he assert ed it was enough that the measure would "destroy the effectiveness or the flexible tariff," and remove the protection against the "orgy of poli tics and log-rolling" accompanying each periodic general revision. How They Voted.. Only two democrats voted to sus tain the president's veto. They were Representatives Connery (Mass.) and Monte t (La.. Representative Kvale (Minn.), the ione farmer-labor member, voted with democrats to overiide the veto. The republicans who voted with democrats were: R?l! ef entatives Amil?, Boileau, Xelson, Peavey, Schneider, Witlfrow. and Stafford (Wis.); Campbell and Gilchrist (la.); Christgau (Minn.); Morton D. Hill (111.) and Sinclair (X. D. ). World-Herald. GLASS BILL SIDETRACKED Washington. Charges that a sen ate banking subcommittee economist sent confidential information to Paris newspapers which caused withdraw als of gold from the United States were denounced by Senator Glass in the senate as untrue and "childish." His vigorous defense of Dr. H. Par ker Willis against the accusations madeon the senate floor by Senator Kean, Xew Jersey, came shortly be fore the Glass bunking reform meas ure was laid aside temporarily, after four clays of debate, to make way for the tax bill. In agreeing to having his meas ure sidetracked. Senator Glass told the senate earnestly that "if it or something like it isn't passed we are going to have another era of bank failures in this country." Glass said Willis is "as honorable a man as I ever came in contact witn in my life, not in any measure ex ceeded in that respect by the sen ator from Xew Jersey." Kill OF BRYAN BANKRUPT Los Angeles.

Suggestions on Cleaning Milk Utensils. Alkali or soda ash washing pow der is a better cleaning agent for milking utensils than soap. The amount of washing powder to be used will vary with the hardness of the water. Bru.-Iies are much bet ter to use when cleaning milk pails and cream separators than rags. Rags are hard to clean ami sterilize and they have a tendency to smear the grease of the butterfat over the utensils rather than loosen it. In washing milk pails and other dairy utensils, cold water should be used first, then warm water and washing powder and then scalding water to sterilize the utensils. Cleaning the cows' flanks and ud ders, milking -with clean hands in clean pails and cooling the cream as soon as it is separated win eio much to help market a good product during the coming hot summer months. Xebraska's well water when circulated around cream cans in cool ing tanks win cool tne cream to a safe temperature within an hour and half. Fertilizers for Leaves. Whoever works out a cheap anei easy way to rid the lawns of dande lions will have his fortune made. So far" the most common method is to dig the plants out with a large knife or special tool or to squirt a few drops of gasoline, sodium chlorate, or sodium arsenate on the plants. Either of these methods is tedious. Fertilizing the lawn and allowing the blue grass to grow will tend to crowd out the dandelions. Ammon ium sulphate or some commercial fertilizer that is high in the nitro gen content is most commonly used for Nebraska lawns. The best way to r.pply the ammonium sulphate is to dissolve it at the rate of one pound to three gallons of water and then prinkle this mixture on about 200 square feet of lewn. The sprinkling should be done in the evening or on a rainy clay rather than when the sun is Fhining on the grass. Well rotted manure will add fertility to the lawn but it is unsightly and of ten full of weed seed. The ammon ium sulphate can not be noticed and never contains any weed reed. Use Poison Bran Slash for Cutworm. The planting cf corn on land that was not in corn lat-t year will do much to control the damage clone in some sections cf the state in the last few years by corn root worms. If the stalks fell over badly last year the yield of corn was cut down con siderably ( and if the trouble seemed to be due to destruction of the corn roots by a worm, the Held was prob ably infested with one of the four species of corn root worms. The only practical control measure is to plant the land to some other crop and grow the 1932 corn on land that was not in corn last year. The corn root aphis, or louse, an other insect . that attacks the roots of corn, can be controlled by keep ing down the weeds early in the spring and by thoro plowing and cultivation of the soil at that time to discourage the ants. The corn root aphis is helpless by itself and dependent upon ants for its food. Keeping the ant3 out of the corn field will control the aphis also. A poison bran mash mixture com posed of 100 pounds of bran, 5 pounds of white arfctnic, 2 quarts cf backstrap molasses and enougli water to make a crumbly mash is scattered ver ythinly along the corn rows after four o'clock in the after noon or during a cool cloudy day. The hundred pounds of bran and the poison will make enough to cover about twenty acre3 of corn if the mash is properly distributed.

May 11. Th- j.owc-r- i ful .support of ItoMns.cn. of Arkansas,! was thrown solidly L'hir.d a r.ew move for federal r lief lor the urie ui- ployed. From the democratic leader of th- senate came a broad plan for; relieving sun r:ng ani aiding eco nomic r cove ry thru a ?C0O,0C0,000 relief fund and a $000,000,000 con struction program. Later a group of ten democratic senators pledged themselves to SUP" pori ine jeganing aim taxing oi ocer to finance a 1,500. 000, Ou0 construc tion program. Th- new relief plans complicated an agreement arranged almost simultaneously by house and senate badtrs to adjourn congress if possible by June 10, and resulted in suggestions for a compromise which could be enacteel by that time. Meanwhile, there were strong in dications that the administration was closely studying the relief problem with a view to possible legislation. President Hoover was said by one rc publican leader to be considering i plan under which congress would ap piopriate an emergency fund of $100, ooo.OOO to be distributed by him thru the Iltd Cross, if he deemed it nc-ces- sa ry. The program for adjourning June 10 was arranged at a conference be tween Senator Watson, Robinson, Speaker Garner and Representative Snell. It was agreed that a "heroic effort" would be made to finish on that date and avoid a summer ses sion. Robinson presented his plan to the senate in a carefully prepared state ment. He emphasized the need of balancing the budget and proposed that his preigram should be financed by bond issues. The relief funds would be advanced to states and mu nicipalities with "such assurance of repayment as may be obtained" and deductions would be mae when necessary for future allotments of federal aid.
