Iwcal Buying Power Better During Year Improved Farm Prices Credited; Greater Confidence Is Felt; Exports Increase. Washington, Bee. 23. Purchas ing power in rural areas was describ ed tcday in the annual report of the secretary of commerce as having "improved greatly during the year." "Major factors of this improve ment," the report said, "were the marked upward trend of farm prices and the payments made to farmers by the federal government in con formity with the agricultural adjust ment program. "Cash income from farm market ings amounted to $5,281,000,000, an increase of 26 per cent over the to tal of S4,1S2,000,000 In the preced ing fiscal year. The increase of 4 5 per cent in the value of crops was nearly four times as large relatively as the increase for live stock and live stock products. "These figures do not include the income from rental and benefit pay ments, which amounted to 310 mil lion dollars. No payments of this kind were made in the preceding fis cal year. Thus, total cash income from marketings and from the AAA showed an increase of one-third." P-etail Trade Progresses. Retail trade, which had shown a lagging tendency toward the close of the fiscal year 1932-33 was described in the report as making "steady pro gress" during the past year. "The increase in sales was rela tively large," the report stated "in rural areas, where the recovery in purchasing power was especially marked." Total agricultural exports amount ed to $787,259,000 during the year. The report said this was a 34 per cent increase. The gain, it said, was duo chiefly to advances in commodity prices, since the total volume of agricultural exports declined about 2 per cent. Meat products showed a 3 per cent export increase. No General P.ecommendaticns. The secretary made no general recommendations for legislation at the next session. Of the 1933 increase in manufac turers, the secretary said this "prob ably" was part of a natural cyclical upturn, but that this was "greatly augmented by the increase in confi dence which was engendered by the advent of the new administration to gether with the belief that inflation ary policies would be followed" and a desire to manufacture as much as possible before the NRA increased costs. In his general business review, the secretary reported an improvement in profits of Industry, but found the capital goods industries depressed and private construction low. COUNCILMAN RESIGNS Fremont. Neb. City Councilman Carl A. Fritz has resigned, effective Dec. 31, to become a member of the Dodge county board of supervisors. He was elected to the board in the November election. Demand Early Solution for the Liquor ssue Size of New One-House Body To Be Decided; Pari-Hutuel Betting Control Is Also Up. Lincoln, Dec. 23. Legislation in the making in the 1935 session of the Nebraska legislature promises spectacular events in the state's his tory. A hundred questions, some born of new deals, new philosophies and new fields, and likewise some older than the state itself, stand ready to fling themselves at the 1933 members of the two legislative branches. Liquor Question Up. One of the first questions asked by the public of the 1935 legislature is about liquor, against which the con stitutional prohibition yas removed by a 1.00,000 majority at the Nov. 6 election. Out of more than two dozen leg islators interviewed, a slightly larg er number favored a state monopoly on the sale of liquor than favored licensing. One definite trend was shown on liquor legislation. Local or county option leads easily as against a blan ket licensing power by the state. Prefer Home Drinking. Preference was shown for a ban on consumption of liquor upon the premises where sold. Some would permit drinking in hotels and clubs, but many more asked a flat restric tion of drinking to the home. A nearly even split occurred on whether to handle hard liquor and beer in the same or in different ways. William II. Wright, attorney general-elect, acting in co-operation with Governor-elect R. L. Cochran, is making a survey cf how other states handle the problem. Revenue Question. The liquor legislation problem di vides itself into different phases. First the legislature must decide whether revenue is to be a major ob jective. There is the problem of the relation of legalized public drink ing to actual temperance. Enforce ment is also a matter under repeal. The most unusual feature of the 1935 session is that it will be the last two-house lawmaking body in the state. By a vote of 2SG.0S6 to '193,152 Nebraska decreed that beginning with 1937 the legislature will con sist of only one chamber. Must Fix Number. Contrasted with the 100 house and 33 senate members of the present plan, the new system will include between CO and 50 lawmakers. An important 1935 legislature task will be to fix that number. Representative-elect Edward D. McKim of Omaha favors 4S members, a third of whose terms would expire every two years, with an eventual six year term for legislators. The problem of private versus state operation of parti-mutuel bet ting systems at racing tracks, aris ing from another constitutional amendment adopted Nov. 6, brought a more even division of opinion. A majority favored private control. One legislator suggested private control with a 6G.6 per cent state tax on the proceeds. Another suggested 10 per cent as a proper tax. INVESTIGATE SAFE BLOWING McCook. Neb. Red Willow coun ty authorities are investigating three safe blowing attempts at Danbury and Lebanon. Officers were called to Danbury af ter an attempt to blow open the safe of the Farmers Equity elevator there. The charge was not heavy enough, officers said, and the yeggs could not get in the safe. Safes at two elevators at Lebanon were blown open early Sunday. Of cers said only a few dollars was tak en at Lebanon. The towns are about seven miles apart. Phone the news to Tio. G.

There's been a lot of talk and dispute about relatives on the payroll but- apparently it hasn't bothered ome congressmen. At any rate, forty-four clerks with the same names as the representatives for whom they work drew checks on the last payday. Five thousand dollars a year, with a 5 percent pay cut slashing it to $4,750, is the amount a congress man is allowed for clerk. He can hire two, and split his allowance any way he chooses so long a3 one of them gets no more than $ 3,9 00 year ly. DISMEMBERED FOOT FOUND Gothenburg. Neb.
