COCHRAN ASKS WPA INCREASE
Lincoln, Dec. 22. Governor R. L
Cochran telegraphed Harry L. Hop
kins, tederal relief administrator, and
Sonator Edward R. I?urke Tuesday
asking that Nebraska's works pro
gress quota be advanced to 25,000
for the next three months.
The quota recently was slashed to
15,000 but at the insistence of Gov
ernor Cochran and other officials it
was extended to 19,000.
The governor asked especially that
the WPA sewing projects be con
tinued to aid needy women through
the winter months.
QUARTER MILLION LISTED
Washington. The social security
board reported New York, with 3,
433.631 applications, topped the list
of states in the number of employes
applying for participation in the old
age annuity program. The total for
all states was 22.129.6T7. The board
noted this total was incomplete, since
more than 2 4,000,000 workers are
represented on employers applica
tions. Pennsylvania was second with
2.1GT,47S applications, and Illinois
third with 1,6S0,059.
Other state totals included Ne

Progress Being
Made with Sho
Outfitting Flan
Distribution Through School Chan
nels Starting: January 4th
Eepair Work Started.
No shoes are being put out as yet,
due to tinie consumed in assembling
and repairing outgrown and some
what worn shoes. One fact is very
apparent, that the $100 alloted to
this program from Community Build
ing club funds will not be sufficient
to permit buying new shoes for all
worthy children.
Receipt of additional pairs of ser
viceable outgrown shoes will iiid in
meeting the heavy demand.
The public is not asked to con
tribute any cash to this fund, other
than the keeping up of weekly mem
bership dues in the Community
Building club.
Among those that have come in
to date are more than a score of
pairs of good, serviceable shoes that
need no repair, and can be fitted to
waiting feet. A dozen or more pairs
have been turned over for repairs
that will put them in good condition
at a cost of around 50 to 60 cents
a pair. There are also on hand at
present some 15 pairs of overshoes
and rubbers with nothing more the
matter with them than missing
buckles.
With eighty requests for shoes and
overshoes now in the hands of the
committee for consideration and ap
proval, the need for additional ser
viceable outgrown shoes in sizes
ranging all the way down from high
school age to tiny tots (both boys
und girls) is very apparent. Those
having such shoes to offer can leave
same at Wescott's store or Conis'
shining parlor, or call 561-J and the
shoes will be picked up. Shoes that
are in too bad condition to repair at
moderate cost are not wanted.
All usable shoes and those repair
ed during the coming week will be
sorted into bins at the old high school
building by the opening day of school
on January 4, when distribution of
these and necessary new shoes to all
approved applicants will be under
taken through the school nurse, Mrs.
Justice Lillie, who is co-operating
in every way possible with teachers
in the public and parochial schools
and the committee of the Community
Building club that is investigating
and passing on the worthiness of all
applications for shoes.
Shoe dealers of the city are also
co-operating in the matter of price
reduction on new shoes that will
permit of extending aid to a greater
number of applicants than would be
possible otherwise.
It is not planned to issue shoes to
children of other than school age3,
through these channels. However,
serviceable shoes for children of pre
school age will be turned over to
the Associated Charities, insuring
distribution of same.
It is regretted that distribution of
shoes could not be made before
the holiday season, but the late date
at which the shoe plan was formu
lated absolutely prevented doing this
with any degree of thoroughness and
check-up as to worthiness of cases,
and with the schools closed the work
of fitting the different children would
be more than doubled.
The shoe committee appreciates the
fine response from (he public in the
giving of serviceable shoes, asks for
still more, and pledges itself to out
fit every applicant deemed worthy
with good serviceable footwear.
Now and then it may be necessary
to refuse a request where parents are
adjudged financially able to take care
of shoe needs among their children,
but for the most part, requests that
nave been considered to date have
been found worthy and can rest as-1
sured they will be supplied.
STAY ON SECURITY JOB m
It is a satisfaction to know that
John G. Winant has resumed the
chairmanship of the social security,
board, if even only temporarily. The
administration of the new federal
old age pension system is one of the
largest tasks the national govern
ment has ever attempted; it needs
the best possible direction. President
Roosevelt's appointment of r.Ir. Win
ant, a former republican governor of
N'ew Hampshire, was widely acclaim
ed when the board was set up. As
chairman, he went about his work
realistically, and at no time did he
take the position that the machinery
was perfect or that the plan was the
"Developments during November,
like that of previous months, pointed
to a sharp reduction in cattle feed
ing in the .United States this season,"
says the state and federal division of
agricultural statistics. While feeding
will be reduced in the corn belt
states, it is probable that more cattle
will be fed in western states. Cattle
feeding in Nebraska is the lowest in
decades.
Shipments of stockcr and feeder
cattle, inspected at stockyards, into
the corn belt states for the period
July to Novmeber inclusive, were 13
percent smaller than for the same
period last year, and the lowest in
18 years. All the decrease of last
year was in western corn belt states,
where the decrease was 20 percent.
Shipments In the eastern corn belt
states were not only slightly above
last year, but they were the largest
in ten years. Cattle on feed in all
of western corn belt states, except
Minnesota, is materially reduced, the
largest reduction being in the states
west of the Missouri river.
Reports from western states indi
cate that most of these states will
feed as many or more cattle than
were fed last season, with record
nrmbers probably in California and
Arizona. All of the principal feeders
in Calorado are expected to feed more

PITTSBURGH There's a spirit of
optimism evident on the campus of
University of Pittsburgh which bodes
ill for the University of Washington
when the Panthers stack up against
the Huskies in the Rose Bowl on Jan.
1.
In fact, it wouldn't be at all sur
prising if these same Tanthers claw
ed up the Pacific coast champions so
effectively that Pitt would come home
with a two-touchdown victory mar
gin on the records.
There are those who will snort at
this prediction especially when the
strength of Jimmie Phelan's outfit is
considered but we'll string along
with Jock Sutherland and his outfit
if for no other reason than the fact
that they were able to smother the
powerful Notre Dame team by a score
of 26-0.
Some will shake their heads du
biously and recall that little Du
quesne humbled Pittsburgh 6 to 0,
and that Fordham, afterward defeat
ed by New York university, held Pitt
to a scoreless tie. On the other hand,
Duquesne's defeat of Marquette
proved to most skeptics that they
were mighty, regardless of the size
of the school, and Fordham's record
this season has been such that any
team needn't have been ashamed to
hold the Rams even.
Pitt Has Rugged Line
Sutherland's outfit at the start of
the season was pretty much a ques
tion mark. It didn't remain so for
long, however, especially when young
Marshall Goldberg swung into ac
tion. This phenomenal sopliomore
has been one of the sensational per
formers of the season, particularly
against the Fighting Irish.
Teamed up with such stellar ball
carriers as Bobby Larue, Hal Steb
bins, Fullback Frank Patrick, and
Quarterback John Michelosen and
you have a backfield which can even
compare to the famous quartet which
has been playing together the past
three years for the Huskies.
Pitt's line is the typically rugged
forward wall, schooled in funda
mentals and built for a hard driving
game, characteristic of the Suther
land brand of football. Outstanding
among the forwards are Averell
Daniell, All-American tackle; Bill
Daddio, outstanding end, and Dante
Dalle-Tezze, guard.
It will be a battle between power
houses, both of which depend primar
ily upon a hard-driving running at
tack. Both the Panthers and Huskies
are famous ior their pile-driving at
tack; neither depend to any great
extent upon an aerial game.
Washington has an impressive
quartet of ball-toters in Elmer Logg,
Jimmy Cain, Byron Haines and Ed
Nowogroski. Logg stands out as one
of the finest punters in the nation;
Cain is outstanding in every depart
ment of the game, defense as well as
offense; Haines is one of the trickiest
runners on the coast and Fullback
Nowogroski is a smashing fullback
whose power has accounted for much
of the yardage piled up by the Pacific
coast champions.
Despite this impressive array or
talent, and a line which is In keep
ing with the Washington tradition
of powerful forward walls, the
Panthers still look like the favorite,
and, if one were to go out on a limb a
bit, it looks like Pittsburgh would
come a winner by two touchdowns
and get revenge for their three pre
vious defeata in the Rose Bowl.
