Plattsmouth, Nebr., Nov
To the Editor,
Plattsmouth Journal,
Plattsmouth, Nebr.
Dear Sir:
We have heard a lot about how
much the railroads are spending for
the construction and maintenance of
our road systems and how little the
users of those same roads contribute,
in the way of taxes, to their upkeep.
Here are some facts for our coun-
. . . , . . .i
ty. In Cass county the total rauroau
valuation for tax purposes for the
year 1931 was $5,313,360. The tax
rate, as established by our board of
county commissioners, for the bridge
and road funds was 1.86 mills. This
means that the railroads in this coun
ty paid in 1931, $9,882.85 toward
tho maintenance of our public roads.
For the same period, from Jan. 1,
1931 to Dec. 31, 1931, there were
4.7C9 passenger cars, whose owners
paid $40,204 in license fees and SD3
trucks whose license fees amounted
to $8,538.50. Thi3 makes a total or
48,742.50 that was collected by Cass
county for license feees alone. Add
to this the sum of $31,312.01 that
was received from the gas tax by the
county for road maintenance and you
have the startling tota of $S0,054.51,
that the owners of automobiles and
trucks have contributed in Cass coun
ty alone toward highway mainten
ance.
Now here is where the railroads
have been leading our readers astray.
They Indicate from their statements
that they have borne most of the ex
panse of our public road mainten
ance, while you can see from the
above that the funds received from
license fees and gas tax in this coun
ty alone, exceed the amount paid by
the railroads by $70,171.66.
This," I think, would be of Interest
to our taxpayers. Yours truly.
RAY G. McMAKEN.

"A TURKEY IN EVERY POT"
Instead of "a chicken in every
pot" there will be a turkey in every
pot of every family that has a wide
awake go-getter on the Job next Sat
urday. Next Saturday, November
19th is Turkey Day In Plattsmouth.
This i3 something new to our peo
ple. We have never had such a day
here before and it promises to be one
of tho red letter days of the year.
Encouraged by the success of the
corn festival and pancake day, the
retail section of the Chamber of Com
merce has decided to try Turkey Day.
Here's the plan At 10:30 Satur
day morning and again at 3:30 in
tho afternoon, turkeys will be re
leased from the top of store build-
ngs opposite the court house, south.
As they fly to earth they become the
r.rm or nrev of anyone who will
. - m
catch them. They will be released
one at a time and between the tur
keys live chickens will also be re
leased. If two or more persons claim
the same bird and cannot agree
whtfh shall have It that bird will
be taken back and released again.
This will be a lot of fun for every
body. Come in and watch the chase
and get a bird for your Thanksgiving
dinner. Remember the day, Satur
day, November 19th.
NOT OPERATED ON
From Friday's Daily
Plattsmouth high school observed
Armistice Day this morning when
the student council presented a very
interesting patriotic program. The
committee was composed of Virginia
Samek, chairman, Lorenco Rhoades
and Maynard McCleary. President
Greth Garnett presided.
Following the ringing of the na
tional anthem a very interesting dis
cussion of C. M. T. C. camp life was
given by Robert Bestor, '31, a four
vear student soldier at Fort Crook.
He then gave ah exhibition of the
manual of arms with William Wet
enkamp. James Robertson and Wil
liam Jensen, also C. M. T. C. stu
dents, as the squad. This was a very
unique and popular feature of the
program.
The speaker for the occasion was
an ex-soldier, Capt. II. L. Gayer, who
gave a very interesting and vivid ac
count of trench, warfare interspersed
with bits of humor in his pleasing
style. He proved to be a very popular
speaker.
Mr. Frank Cloidt sang two num
bers as the final number of the pro-
ram. These were; "Goodby to Sum
mer" and "The Hills of Home." The
student body appreciated an oppor
tunity to hear this fine singer.
