Nebraska is
Freed of Bovine
Tuberculosis
Department of Agriculture and In
spection Onnounces All Coun
ties Now Cleard Up.
The Department of Agriculture
and Inspection is now pleased that
Nebraska is completely accredited as
free of Bovine Tuberculosis. This
achievement will remove all handi
cap from the Nebraska products es
pecially the butter market in Chi
cago, action of which was taken by
the Department of Agriculture and
Inspection with the board of health
of Chicago to have this restriction
raised.
Furthermore, restrictions on ship
ping feeder cattle into Iowa, Illinois
and other states will soon be re
moved and a certificate to that effect
has been certified to secretaries of
agriculture of these different states.
The state has gone through the
most intensive testing program in
its history. For the last twelve years
thi3 work has been carried on in Ne
braska by appropriation made by the
Nebraska legislature and aided by the
government by them providing addi
tional funds to bring every county
in the state under inspection.
This accomplishment is not to be
accredited to any one individual but
is accredited to the good judgment
of the different legislature since
1923, who have supported the pro
gram of appropriations for the eradi
cation of tuberculosis in cattle. Valu

able support has been given in the
past by ex-governors McMullen and
Weaver, and by Governor Cochran,
the present executive, who has been
a very willing supporter of this ac
tivity. The last legislature appropriated
$100,000 for finishing this work and
the governor, in addition thereto,
gave his consent to set up a larger
amount of this money for immediate
action so that Nebraska cattle and
Nebraska dairy products could take

SEEKING NEW TALENT
FOR SCREEN
By D. W. BAIRD
Every year thousands of people
go to Hollywood in hopes of getting
into the movies or other profession
al work. Many of these thousands
save their dollars for years to make
this trip and, after a few weeks or
months, find themselves penniless
and heartily discouraged. Many
young and beautiful girls and splen
did examples of young manhood
who go to Hollywood, not only
never succeed in getting profession
al work, but never return to their
homes. They become "drifters"
drifting from adventure to adven
ture, and unfit themselves for suc
cess in any endeavor.
Many persons who find only fail
ure might be successful if proper
presentation of that person had
been made at just the right time
and had been preceded by the right
kind of high class publicity pro
gram built for and around his or
her particular type. The profes
sions of radio, stage and screen are
constantly searching for new stars.
There is always an urgent demand
for new faces and characters of all
types, but the most talented indi
vidual, without a publicity back
ground and management, has no
chance of presenting himself or of
gaining recognition.
Success and stardom are not ac
quired by chance or ability alone,
but are the direct result of a care
fully planned and executed cam
paign designed to prepare a subject
for presentation when an opening
occurs for his or her particular
type. Without this planned pro
gram the great majority of those
who go to Hollywood for the pur
pose of entering the movies are
destined to the route of almost un
endurable hardships, heartaches
and temptations, which often ends
in wrecked lives.
Voice and Film Tests Made Free.
In order that many talented,
young and beautiful people may
avoid these pitfalls many of the big
producers are sponsoring small pro
duction units throughout the coun
try, whose duty it is to produce
short length motion picture plays
in the smaller communities; these
units are equipped with the latest,
most compact camera and sound
equipment, which enables them to
not only film, but record the voices
of talented people In the com
munity. At the same time afford
ing the local people an opportunity
of seeing how sound pictures are
actually produced, of course, using
the local cast.
There is no charge for this ser
vice for those who participate in
the filming, and should some un
usual type or personality be discov
ered, their voice and film test is
immediately forwarded to Holly
wood for possible consideration of
the major producers, who have pro
vided a Library of Talent, where
Invited persons can be represented
in Hollywood while they enjoy the
security of their own fireside.
The desire of the Screen Library
for Talent i3 not alone beauty, but
type. The unusually fat man or
woman, the lean or lank, the mid
get, the singer, the dancer, the
orator, the funny or the serious
all have an equal chance of capi
talizing on their qualifications.
In participating in the local
movies, which will be filmed in this
city, and providing you have the
ability required, your indulgence in
this local attraction will make it
possible for you to be made avail
able when the call is issued for
your particular type. For the
movies can only be interested in
you when they need someone like
you.
Unusual Talent Discovered.
May we at this time call your
attention to the Major Bowes, Kate
Smith and other amateur hours
that are being featured from week
to week over national radio hook
ups. These contests are held in
New York, Philadelphia and other
metropolitan cities throughout the
nation, and you must admit, if you
have listened to these programs,
that many talented individuals have
been found. The motion picture in
dustry is going a step farther, in
seeking new talent. Instead of con
fining our activities to the larger
cities, there are now approximately
fifteen traveling units giving the
people of the smaller communities
a chance to display their ability.
You are sincerely requested to
consider this carefully and remem
ber that Buddy Rogers, Clair Wind
sor, the Gish Sisters, Will Rogers,
Virginia Bruce, Ann Harding, Kate
Smith, Jack Oakie and many othcr3
were found in smaller towns.
ASKS FOR POISON BRAN
Director Banning of the state de
partment of agriculture has asked
Secretary Wallace for a few cars of
poison bran to use against grasshop
pers. He desires the federal govern
ment to ship a supply to Lincoln for
distribution to counties where it is
needed. He said southeastern coun
ties have some grasshoppers but that
the poison is needed badly around
Norfolk and in northeast counties.

MOTHS WORK THRU WINTER
Ithaca, X. Y. Studies indicating
that common clothes moths will work
all winter in air conditionsd build
ings were announced at Cornell uni
versity. Ordinarily they work only
in spring and summer. The reason
is the pleasing liumity which air
conditioning can substitute for the
somewhat dry air of ordinary winter
heating.
Drs. Grace H. Griswold and Mary
F. Crowell, who are nationally known
for their studies of the clothes
moths, have proved that this insect
Is able to breed during every month
of the year. They found moths in
well heated houses at all seasons.
Their latest investigation was to find
out why moths appear in the greatest
numbers in spring and summer. They
discovered that humidity plays an
important role.

Predict Public
Debt will Run
Near 34 Billion
Treasury Experts Estimate Amount
on Easis of Bonus Payments
This Month.
rvasiiinglon. Carelutty guaging
the amount to be paid on the bonus
this month, treasury experts esti
mated the fiscal year would close
June 30 with the public debt a few
millions short of 34 billions.
They figured that of 3,500,000 vet
erans eligible for the bonus, some 2,
500,000 would receive their checks
and bonds during the last two weeks
of June, involving an outlay of 1.7
billions. This would be reflected also
in the deficit.
They declined to hazard an opin
ion as to what the latter figure might
be. However, at the close of business
June 1, it stood at ?2, 909,000,000.
Adding 1.7 billions to that figure pro
duced a sum of 3.6 billions. This
would be increased by the amount
that June expenditures exceed June
revenues.
The public debt on June 1, stood at
$31,635,000,000 and in reaching the
34 billion figure for the end of the
fiscal year the treasury official added
to it, in addition to the bonus cost,
a billion to be borrowed in new cash
June 15, and 250 millions to be bor
rowed by the weekly sale of treasury
bills. The whole would add up to
$34,586,000,000. From this must be
deducted an expected CC0 millions in
bonus bonds cashed, leaving a net
figure of $33,986,000,000.
As the bonds go out to the veter
ans, accompanied by checks for odd
amounts, the transaction is to be
charged upon the treasury books in
two ways, as a cash expenditure and
as an increase in the public debt.
The latest conversion of the bonds
into cash will be treated as an oper
ation for the retirement of that much
of the public debt, thus cancelling
one of the two entries made when
the bonds are sent out to the veter
ans. It is expected that some 500 to
600 millions will be so treated this
month.
If the debt reaches the nearly 34
billions figure predicted for June 30,
it will stand at a peak of 5.3 billions
above the 28.7 billion point at which
the fiscal yea rbegan. For the year
thus far, it has increased $2,934,
000,000.
COTTON IS HIT BY DROUTH
Atlanta. Drouth threatened to
help settle the cotton surplus prob
lem the hard way.
Commission house buj-ers said a
record 50 day dry spell in the south
east might accomplish what formal
crop curtailment programs had fail
ed to do create normal trade chan
nels for approximately 3' million
bales held by the government. That
is the average annual production of
the four states hardest hit by the
drouth Alabama, Georgia and the
Carolinas.
Weather beaten rarmers hoped,
however, that rains would come soon
to restore life to their dusty fields.
Meteorologists agreed that abundant
moisture within the next few days
would save much of the cotton and
other crops of tobacco, corn, hay,
fruits and. truck. While the drouth
went into its eighth week, southern
congressmen launched a movement in
Washington to obtain quick federal
aid for stricken farmers.
SAYS IT'S WOMEN WHO PAY
Chicago. Women investors of the
nation were urged by Miss Catherine
Curtis of New York to "mobilize un
til they are a million strong" in a
movement to protect their invest
ments." Miss Curtis, organizer and national
director of Women Investors in Am
erica, told the first finance congress
of women that women spend 85 per
cent of the consumer's dollar and
pay huge sums in federal taxes but
have little realization of their finan
cial strength.
She described her organization as
nonpartisan, nousubsidized and non-
political. It's aim, she told the sev
eral hundred present, was to make
women "money conscious and tax
conscious."
RENAMED TO FCC
Washington. George Henry Payne
of New York was reappointed by
President Roosevelt for a term of
seven years on the federal communi
cations commission.

tal laws, Basil Koob was ordered to
