WPA Receives
New Money to
Rush Projects
Agency Gets $416,650; FERA Ad
ministrator Witte Heads East
to Ask for $1,378,001.
Money came rolling into the treas
ury offices of WPA Wednesday morn
ing as well as approval of more than
$410,650 in projects on which work
will be started immediately, says Ad
ministrator Felton. Accompanying
this announcement was the word that
by Nov. 15, between 8,500 and 10,
000 will be at work on WPA jobs.
The national re-employment offices
furnished the agency with news of
15 thousand having been certified as
eligible to work up- to the present
time.
Meanwhile, State 'FERA Adminis
tratro Witte, who announced Tues
day he would ask Washington for
about $900,000 to help on the dole
for another month, .left behind him
Wednesday information that he
would attempt to get $1,278,001 for
the needs of the November interim.
Since this only includes general and
transient relief, other agencies hav
ing been shorn of the FERA setup, it
comes within a short way of being
on eof the largest grants ever sought.
Spurred into action by money from
Washington, which had not been
tabulated accurately Wednesday, Ad
ministrator Felton advised his office
that it was on a "twenty-four hour"
basis from now on and would be un
til the work was well under way and
enough projects started to take care
of the load of unemployed.
"This FERA certification state
ments are inaccurate," one WPA of
ficial said Wednesday," In that they
purport to show the true employment
situation as regards relief, but it's a
report by case, not by employable
person, taking in all the crippled,
aged and decrepit, while WPA and
the job agencies can only hope to
care for those able to work. The oth
er care is up to the counties. FERA
should make itself more clear. Our
figures on certification come from re
employment agencies and are about
employable persons."
By districts the WPA allotments
are as follows:
No. 1, Norfolk, 21 projects, hire
540 persons, $188,537.
No. 2, Omaha, 6 projects, hire 254
persons, x&5,UU.
No. 3, Lincoln, 7 projects, 233
hired, 166,756.
No. 4, Grand Island, 4 projects,
108 persons, $13,158.
No. 5. Alliance, 10 projects, 108
persons, x 5 1,1 91.
No. 6, North Platte, 4 projects, 40
persons, $9,355.

A cleansing dose todag; a smaller
quantity tomorrow; less each time,
until bowels need no help at alL
Why do people come home from a
hospital with bowels working like a
well-regulated watch?
The answer is simple, and it's the
answer to all your bowel worries if
you will only realize it: many doctors
and hospitals use a liquid laxative.
If you knew what a doctor knows,
you would use only the liquid form.
A liquid can always be taken in
gradually reduced doses. Reduced
dosage is the secret cf mg real relief
from constipation.
Ask a doctor about this. Ask your
druggist how very popular liquid
laxatives have become. They give the
right kind of help, and right amount
of help. The liquid laxative generally
used is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
It contains senna and cascara both
natural laxatives that can form no
habit, even in children. So, try Syrup
Pepsin. You just take regulated
doses till Nature restores regularity.

Red Cross Holds
Home Inspection
Through Schools
More Than One-third of Fatal Acci
dents Are Sustained in and
Aout the Home.
The American National Red Cross
Is having an annual Home Inspection
Campaign. This is carried on thru
the schools.
More than one-third of all fatal
accidents and nearly one-half of all
accidental injuries are sustained in
and about the home. Last year there
were 34,500 lives lost in our homes;
approximately 150,000 people maim
ed for life; injuries were sustained
by nearly 5,000,000 persons. Thus,
we find that injuries In the home now
take an unwarranted annual toll in
life, suffering and economic loss.
The purpose of the Home Inspec
tion Campaign is to give the indi
vidual homes an opportunity to check
on the hazards or the bad habits that
may cause accidents, and to suggest
ways of eliminating the hazards and
correcting the bad habits. This pur
pose will be accomplished by having
the school children take Into their
homes during the week of October
28-November 2 a home inspection
blank.
The parent is to accompany the
child in an inspection of the home
based on the items indicated on the
blank and is to take the action he
chooses on the conditions found.
The returns will be tabulated and
publicity given on the results.
May there be co-operation of child,
parent and school.
Sales Tax May .
Once More Haunt
the Legislature
Uncertainty as to Whether Gover
nor's Call Bars the Discus
sion of a New Tax.
Attorney General William H.
Wright said "Wednesday night at Lin
coln Governor R. L. Cochran's call
for the special legislative session
which convenes Monday does not ex
clude Introduction and enactment of
new forms .of. taxation, Including
sales taxes.
Governor R- L. Cochran, who is op
posed to new forms of taxation, drew
the call with the Intention of exclud
ing possibility of any taxes save per
capita, liquor and gasoline levies to
finance the social security program.
"I find a number of cases squarely
in point," Wright said after a study
of the statutes and cases. "The gen
eral rule seems to be that the gover
nor may limit the legislature as to
subjects, but may not specify the
matter which goes Into bills on those
subjects."
No Curb on Details.
The attorney general said the con
stitutional provision restricting the
legislature to action on subjects con
tained In the call had been construed
to mean only the broad, general mat
ters and not specific details within
the subjects.
Announcement Wednesday by State
Senator Archie C. O'Brien (dem.) of
Grand Island that he planned to In
troduce a sales tax bill In the special
legislative session raised the ques
tion in statehouse circles.
Wright said, however, that he felt
a social security program nnancea
through any other means than men
tioned in the governor's call might
be I nserious Jeopardy In the courts.
No Concerted Plan.
W. B. Banning, present director of
the state department of agriculture
and president of the Nebraska sales
tax association, said the organization
did not contemplate any introduction
of a sales tax in the special session.
Representative George E. Nickles
(dem.) of Murray said he had not
thought about a sales tax for pen
sions but was Interested in It pri
marily as a replacement of the prop'
erty tax.

Utah's Salt Lake Drying Up
t . , - y v , Ww
In 1 "-
. ij
Utah's Great Salt Lake, the largest inland salt lake in the world. Is
drying up. Shrinking to its lowest level, even lower than it was
in 1850 when an army engineer surveyed it, the phenomenon! Is
causing considerable conjecture among scientists. According to one
of the most noted students of the Great Salt Lake, Professor Thomas
C. Adams of Utah university, "the recent changes in level reflect ia
a large measure simply the excesses and deficiencies of rainfall in
the drainage basin, and in a smaller measure the encroachment of
irrigation upon the water supply." The widely-known salt flats were
named after an explorer, Capt. Benjamin L. E. Bonneville, In 1391,
and today are used by automobile drivers in attempts to set new
. speed marks. -
