PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, MONDAY, MAY 17, 1937.
NO. 29
R. V. Koupal
Explains Bills to
Local Ad Club
Senators Fred L. Carsten. W. H. Diers
and W. F. Haycock Also Guests
at Luncheon Wednesday.
R. V. "Dick" Koupal of Lincoln,
secretary of the Federation of
braska Retailers, was a guest speak
er at the Ad club luncheon at the
Hotel Plattsmouth "Wednesday noon.
Mr. Koupal, as one of the most pow
erful lobbyists for legislative bills
No. 131 and 137, explained the mea
sures to the business men of Platts
mouth and their affect upon the local
stores.
As a background to the bills, the
speaker explained that the N.R.A. had
a number of codes, many of which
were found to be beneficial to busi
ness. Cut of the codes grew a desire
for a permanent application of the
things business liked. '
j
An organization sprung up in
Washington. D. C. called the Amer
ican Retail Association. It was look
ed upon by congressmen as somewhat
of a "super-lobby" of business
An
investigation into the association re-j
vealed startling facts in regard to
concessions and rebates being made
to retail organizations. As a result
the Robinson-Pattntn bill was passed
by the U. S. congress making the of
fering or receiving of special conces
sions illegal. The purpose of this
bill is to give the small man an equal
chance in business.
Nebraska 131 and 137
Nebraska, to supplement this bill, i
i
has recently passed house number ,
131 the fair trades act. This bill
provides tnat a manuiaciurer maj
contract with a distributor, setting
the retail price on a given bra;d of
goods-providing the price is Riven I
to all retail merchants. The theory
behind the bill is that "anything that j
sells as a bait is not fair to anyone."
A companion act. house number !
137. is the unfair practices act. The;
provisions of this bill make it im
possible for a merchant to "play
ball" with unregulated goods. Un
der 137, the provision is made thatlDale IIanson Thomas Kriskey and'
any mercnant buying mercnanaise oi
any kind is not permitted to sell that
merchandise below cost plus cost of
doing business (for which a mini
mum of C9c of the cost price is set).
As to the enforcement of tbe two
state bills, Mr. Koupal stated that j

Success or Failure
Cass fullt friends, observing the
iuv-Oj7 c tic ii i m w n uiu in v. i v.
ters, as their daring capture of Suhey
and Power a month ago brought
them into national prominence over
night, will attend this dinner in a
little different spirit than that ex
hibited by the throngs of strangers
and curious-minded.
Many have pondered what might
have happened as Homer and Cass
went out that April 16 evening in
i response to a request from the FBI
offiqe in Omaha and how much ac
claim would have been paid them.
if a mis-slip in their calculations had
given the gunmen the advantage of
a draw. Instead of live heroes, they
would have been unsung victims. A

haps a paragraph in the metropolitan
press stating that two country law
enforcement officers with more cour
age than judgment had "thought"
they could cope with vicious city gun
men. Such is the fine line of demar
cation that determines success or
failure among sheriffs and sheriffs'
deputies.
So in sitting down at this dinner,
feelings uppermost in the minds of
the friends there gathered will be of
pride, mingled with a thankfulness
that they did not suffer the fate
many predecessors in law enforce
ment have.
Plattsmouth offers a splendfd
market for. farm produce. Local
dealers always pay top prices.

in the letters and every fanner find
ing the pest on his farm was urged
to order poison bran.
Ratio of poison bran suggested is
100 pounds per quarter se' tif n of
land. The first application of bait
should be given as soon as the hop
pers begin to hatch and a second ap
plication will be needed in about a
week or ten days later. Then if the
weather stays cool and ftretches tbe
hatching over a three weeks period
it may be necessary to use a third
application of the poison bait.
Government bait will probably be
late in getting here and even when it
comes there will not be enough to dv
all the job. Therefore the farm bu
reau is getting the material together
now to start mixing. The Cass and
Sarpy county farm bureaus l:ac pone
together to buy bait material in or
der to make as much ah of a saving
as possible. Every tffort will be made
! to keep tne cost down to the mini-

bait at a reasonable price.
