The city council at their session

bond auction, all were anxious to
secure the bonds for their companies.
The bonds which were for four and
three quarter cents interest bearing,
were sold to Greenway-Raynor Co., of
Omaha at the rate of three per cent
interest and a cash premium of $61,
the bidders to have the bonds printed
and history prepared.
The finance committee of the coun
cil presented an estimate of revenue
lor the city which was adopted and
which under the new budget system
is divided into several sections for
each fund. This estimate places the
limit on what may be levied for, but
the levy can be for a less amount
than the estimate. The various esti

lowing: General. $6,000; Police.
$3,300: Streets and Road. $4,000.

A communication was received
from the Plattsmouth fire department
notifying that August Kief had been
selected as a member of the depart
ment, his name being confirmed by
the council.
Communication was received from
a group of the residents near 12th

stallation of an electric street light.
This was referred to the lighting
committee for future investigation.
Mayor Lushinsky, chairman of the
board of health, reported twenty-five

council had been comrleted ou the
streets save a tile job. He also re
ported that the cleanup campaign
had been very successful depite rainy
conditions.
Chairman Comstock of the light
ing committee reported that at this
time there was a light located in the
alley near the Bauer garage. The
light would serve a larger number
if placed on the west side of Seventh
street and which was so ordered.
The lighting committee also recom
mended the granting of a street light
at 9th and Timer streets in the north
'part of the city where there is a ter
rit"ry inadequately served for light.
This recommendation was adopted
with Councidmen Puis and Webb
voting no and Tippens. Tiekotter.
Comstock, Rebal. Vincent, Schutz,
Vroman and Gabelman voting aye.
Mayor Lushinsky stated that the
light fund was limited and the in
stalling of lights could not be carried
out in every case as the funds would
not permit. He urged that council
men discourage the requests for addi
tional lights.
There was some discussion of the
establishment of the nature trail
park southeast of the city along
the Missouri river and was referred
to ti e city attorney to look up and
see what could be done to aid the
project.

REVERSES RELIEF RULING
LIN'COLN.May 27 (UP) The
Attorney General reversed himself
today in ruling1 that it is immaterial
whether or not the 12 months' county
residence period required of relief ap
plicants is continuous or separatd by
periods in which they received relief.
The attorney jreneral's office pre
viously held that the one year resi
dence period during which the appli
cant must not have received relief
shall bs consecutive. Assistant At
torney General Edwin C. Vail wrote
to Countv Attorney John Gewacke of
Geneva "your interpretation is the
more workable".
DENIES STRIKE CALL
OMAHA. May 27 (UP) Empha
tic denial of reports that a truck
strike has been called for June 1

Federal Areas
for Wildfowl
Now Total 252
Bird Refuges Comprise 8.303,380
Acres Over Country No
Bird Census Possible.
WASHINGTON (UP) The new
deal has proclaimed its friendship for
birds by increasing acreage set aside
for bird refuges by more than 300
per cent, the department of agricul
ture announced.
The department's bureau of biolog
ical survey now has under its super
vision 252 refuges comprising S.S03,
3S0 acres. One June 30, 1933. there
were 102 refuges comprising 2,455,
4 22 acres.
No bird census has been possible,
but observation at the principal
refuges convinced survey officials
that the bird population has in
creased by at least 25 per cent dur
ing the past five years.
Birds Reduce Insects
The birds are a valuable ally in
farmers' battle against plant insects
which annually cost many times as
much in crop damage as the refuges
cost to purchase. Bird refuges have
been established in 40 states in the
past five years.
Since Jan. 1 this year the depart
ment has purchased approximately
95,0 00 acres for establishment of six
refuges in five states along the im
portant flyways between Canada and
the Gulf.
The largest of these was the
Arkansas refuge, comprising 4 7,215
acres along the Arkansas-Texas bor
der. Here ducks winter in great
numbers and pelicans, herons and
curlews are to be found.
The Lacassine refuge consists of
31,125 acres in Cameron Parish,
western Louisiana, near the Gulf.
It embraces a marshy tract that
serves as a wintering ground for
waterfowl, other migratory birds and
wildlife.
Area in Lake Superior
The Huron reruge consists or two
small islands in Lake Superior three
miles north of the Marquette county,
Mich., shore line. The area is a
haven for gulls and shore birds, as
well as for migratory waterfowl,
which use it as a resting spot.
Two new refuges in Montana are
within the breeding range of many
species of waterfowl. The Black
Coulee refuge consists of 1,16 0 acres
in Blaine county and the Hewitt
Lake refuge of 1,200 acres in Phil
lips county.
An addition of 10.544 acres was
made to the Lower Souris Migratory
Waterfowl refuge in North Dakota,
said to be a popular summer home
for many species of ducks and geese.
On the eastern coast of North
Carolina, the Pea Island refuge con
sisting of 5.S46 acres was added to
the long barrier reef lying east of the
coast and separating Pamlico Sound
from the Atlantic ocean as a winter
refuge for waterfowl and migratory
birds.

FUNDS ARE RAISED FOR
ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT
As a result of fund-raising activ
ities carried on last week on behalf
o? the Legion Junior Drum Corps,
an amount of money sufficient to
take care of the additional unuorms
and musical instruments needed by 1
the enlarged corps has been raised.
The first of these, a canvas of the
business sec tion by Treasurer Henry j
G. Soennichsen and H. L. Gayer oi
the committee, was productive of
about $150.
The two activities Saturday also
brought in neat sums.
Tag day was sponsored by the
Junior Legion Auxiliary members,
under the supervision of Mrs. Otto
Keck, their adult counsellor, was
very successful, a total of $88.00 be
ing realized. The girls started early
in the morning and were on the
street until late at night soliciting
donations. The Dinn Corps boys
themselves entered into the spirit of
the affair and made solicitations
throughout the residential section of
Plattsmouth. The spirit of the com
munity was fine and their contribu
tions were given freely.
The bake sale contributed to by
ladies of the community also did very
well. With belated contributions
still coming in. the amount realized
has now reached $40.75 and a few
more yet to hear from. Mrs. Elmer
Webb, Legion Auxiliary president
had charge of this activity.
Uniforms have been ordered to
outfit the additional boys in the
corps this year, and musical instru
ments will also be provided from the
money contributed for this worthy
purpose.
It is hoped to have the uniforms
here in time to be worn at their ap
pearance at the Hamburg peony
show Saturday.
FRANCE HUNTS TREASURE SHIP
PARIS (UP) The French gov
ernment is jroing" treasure-hunting in
the mud of the Seine in the hope of
recovering a diamond necklace of
Marie Antoinette's and the rest of a
fabulous fortune in jewels and art
works which legend says sank with
the ship TVIemaque in 17!0.
Bids were submitted to the govern
ment on Mav 10 for t!io clrcclirin- of
that part of the ;Hver' around Quille- j
boeuf, near La HikVie, where the Tel
t unique pan!;. -The contract specifies
raise.; fcnijv i-icD : tahe .away the
wreck." The salvager, if successful,
will have the right to all pieces of
wreckage and machinery. The gov
ernment reserves for itself "all prec
ious objects, gold, silver, platinum,
moneys, jewels and precious stones
. . . uml all thingj of historical or
artistic value."
Fishermen ancf waterfront artist?
who haunt the quays at Quilleboef.
where the Seine meets the Atlantic
are shaking their heads pessimistic
ally. The story of the Telemaque and
its legendary treasures has been told
to them and their fathers for 150
years how the Telemaque. laden with
treasures, was caught in the teeth of
a hurricane as it reached the narrow
Quillebcef passage. Its gallant cap
tain, a Britisher named Cumberland
tried to force the passage but was
caught in a tidal wave which swallow
ed the Telemaque, its passengers and
its cargo, within .M feet of the Quil
leboef lighthouse.
Thiee attempts have already been
made to raise the legendary treasure
ship. The last was nearly fifty years
ago, in 1842; the others were in 1837
and 1841. Only mud and rubbish
were found.
