Eettey 5, and Norman 3, to safety and then turned for Max. Mrs. Perkins waited, but her hus band did not reappear and the floors of the house collapsed, hurling Max and his father to the basement. Neighbors did not learn of the fire until Mrs. Perkins and her children appeared at a nearby farm, and by the time helpers reached the Perkins home, they were too late to help.

The home was owned by Alex Perkins, father of Harvey. x 1 CARD OF THANKS To th.9 many kind friends and neighbors we desire to express our deep gratitude for their acts of kind ness and words of sympathy.

PERRY "NO MAN'S COLLAR From Nebraska City News-Pres3 October 11, 1936 NEW Deal conrcssi-'mal aspirants who seek re-elcctiun arc said to ohject to th.e in ference that they were rubber-stamps doing the bidding of the Xew Deal oligarchy. More specifically, a Xew Deal aspirant for Congress in "Nebraska is said to have suggested to a friend that such a line of argument as that connoted by ''rubber stamp" should be elimi nated from the campaign because it is n t "fair." If there are any unfair implications, lb? obligation lies on the New Deal congre-nuu who forgot in their enthusiasm and worh;p of the Oligarchy that they were elected to serve the people of their districts on the plat form of 193J which pledged economy in na tional affairs, a reduction, in the number i employes on the federal payroll and th,: elid ing of commissions, committees and agencies of government. No such pledges were kept: no 1 03 - plat form promise has been treated with any greater consideration than that "1 ve and affect ion" which is lavished on an unwanted stepchild. Specifically, for example, the First Dis trict of Nebraska is entitled to representa tion by a man who will not only look upon his job as a delegation of authority from the people, but who will keep his party's pledge to end the wasting program in Wash ington. It is for this reason, and many others, that The News-Press believes the First Dis trict of Nebraska will be best served by the election of the independent, clear-thinking, courageous Judge Finest L. Perry. 2d
