ASS LAW I2ITE2PEETATI0N
Wa; hlngton. Illinois coal miners,
members of the Progressive Coal! the Central Republic Bank & Trust
Miners of America, asked the supreme company stood postponed Monday un
court for an interpretation of the J til an unannounced date, probably
Korris-La Guaria act of 1932 which later in the week. Federal Judge
barred federal court injunction in
labor disputes.
The miners appealed from a ruling
by the Seventh federal circuit court
cn Dec. 21 which granted an injunc
tion to the United Electric Coal com
pany, operators of several Illinois
mines. This reversed action of the
eastern Illinois federal courts which
had refused the injunction because
of the 1932 act.

President Woods Tells the Stock
holders at Annual Sleeting Out
look Good for Business.
In spite of major disasters in 1935
in part of the rural territory served,
the Lincoln Telephone & Telegraph
company was reported by President
Frank II. Woods, at the annual meet
ing of stockholders Tuesday after
noon, to have had a reasonably satis
factory year considering business con
ditions generally. A forecast of im
proved business for 1936 was given.
An increase of 3 percent in toll reve-
'mipQ nrifl n ETiiin nf 1 .flfl tplpnhnnps
- - '
during the year were noted. The to
tal in service at the close or the
year was 64,207.
"It must be remembered," said Mr.
Woods, in his report, "that Nebraska
has always been an agricultural state
and its prosperity depends upon the
prosperity of agriculture. The south
west portion of our territory was
visited first by severe dust storms,
then by floods, then by drouth. In a
considerable portion of our territory
the crops were severely damaged by
hail.
"Taking these things into consid
eration, we feel that the financial re
sults obtained by the company this
year are reasonably satisfactory.
"During the year we were able to
refund our outstanding bonds, re
ducing the annual rate of interest
and assuring us of the low cost cf
money for many years in the iuture.
Service has been maintained at its
usual high standard and more people
have been employed during the year
than in 1924.
"For the year 1936 it is planned
to take advantage of .favorable
money markets in providing needed
capital for plant extensions and im
provements which the management
consider necessary in order to pro
vide our public with modern, high
grade telephone service. The budget
for 193G calls for the expenditure of
some $700,000 in thi3 type of work
but it is possible that expenditures
will exceed this amount if crop condi
tions during the year justify it."
A detailed financial report will be
submitted later to stockholders, un
der the plan adopted a year ago of
having certified accountants prepare
the figures.
Gross revenues for the
year exceeded $2,57C,000. The cora-
rany has $2,
,575,000 of preferred
'stock and $3, 500, 000 of common stock
and $3,500,000 ef first mortgage
bonds outstanding.
No changes were made in the offi
ciary, Frank IT. Woods being re
elected president, Thomas C. Woods
and John II. Agee vice presidents,
and H. W. Potter, secretary-treasurer.
Directors are C. N. Beaver, G.

EARLY ELECTION IN JAPAN
Tokyo. Dissolution of the Japan
ese parliament, permitting the gov
ernment to call an eary election, was
expected at Tuesday's reconvened
session. Political writers unanimous
ly predicted that Premier Okada, in
order to forestall a resolution of non
confidence which the unfriendly
Eciyukai majority party is preparing
to introduce, will announce dissolu
tion. He is expected to do so after
Foreign Minister Koki Hirota and
Korekiyo Takahashi, octogenerian
minister of finance, have delivered
speeches. Hirota is expected to give
the government's first official survey
in many months of the empire's friction-laden
relations with the world.
Dissolution means an election
within a month, probably Feb. 20, in
which the government hopes the
friendly minseito party will return
with a majority. The dissolution will
be duo entirely to domestic issues
and the foreign policy will not be
affected. Parliament is reassembling
after its long new year holidays,
which began Dec. 27.

PLATTSMOUTH SEMI - WEEKLY JOURNAL
NEWSPAPER ADS UP
TO 520 MILLIONS
New York, Jan. 17. Daily news
paper advertising in 1935 amounted
to approximately 520 million dollars,
it is estimated in this week's issue

and advertising journal. This com
pares with about 490 million dollars
in 1934 and 440 million dollars in
1933, the lowest depression year.
Volume in 1929 was estimated at
S50 million dollars.
In actual lineage the daily news

over 1934, according to an index
based on measurements of advertis
ing published in 52 key cities thru
out the United States. The volume
was 17 per cent above that of 1933,
and 65.7 per cent of 1929.
December was 12.3 per cent ahead
of December, 1934, and was also the
first month to surpass 1931 lebels.
BUSINESS ON STRONG BASIS
New York. Channing E. Sweit
zer, managing director of the Na
tional Retail Dry Goods association,
pronounced business in "a stronger
position than at any time since 1929." j
"Adherence to certain funda
mental principles of economics" is
leading the nation out of the depres
sion, he said in an address at the
annual meeting of the National Asso
ciation of Retailers.
He said this was happening while
our public debt is on the increase and
our federal budget greatly out of bal
ance, and while we have been con
fronted with the enactment of laws
unprecedented in scope and character."
