the first course of its kind ever de
signed exclusively for workers in
the field of the physically handi
capped, and since there is a great
need for just such training, I- hope
many people in our state will take
advantage of this unusual opportun

thorities in the country speak on
subjects pertinent to the program of
relief for crippled and handicapped
persons." JJ
Some of the outstanding speakers
who will address the workers dur
ing this intensive training course

CRITICIZES WALLACE
TOPEKA, Kansas, Sept. 9 (UP)
Alf. ' M. Landon, republican party
leader and candidate for president
in the last election, bitterly criticized
Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wal
lace today for a radio speech on food
profiteering.
"The secretary of agriculture did
his best to stop increases in farm
prices,1' Landon said in an interview.
"He told all prospetive buyers at
home and abroad that we had great
surpluses of wheat, corn, bogs, cot
ton, etc; therefore, the buyer did not
have to pay the American farmer any
such prices as were being asked. He
said he had all kinds of mechanical
controls . that were new to prevent
any profiteering. What the Kansas
farmer wants to know is what the
secretary of agriculture means by talk
about profiteering and knocking the
first decent general price he has in
prospect, for years."

LEBANON FIRE SWEPT
LEBANON, Neb., Sept. 7 (UP)
A fire which started in a cafe early
today spread to destroy half the
business section of this Red Willow
Children the Crossroads
By Judge Ernest L. Reeker
Copyright 1939
No Respector of Social Strata
A well-known club woman of the
community hurried into the juvenile
ourt office one day in response to
the judge's telephone call to her. She
. . 1 A.
was angry mere was no auuui
about it.
"I haven't time to talk to you this
afternoon, judge," she said. "My
bridge club meets today, and 1
should be there now. What Is so
mportant that you insisted that I
come down here at once?"
"Only your daughter," the Judge
replied.
"My daughter!" Her face paled
beneath its careful makeup. "What
about my daughter?"
"Just this," the judge responded;
'I'd like for you to look over a med
al report I have here and try' to
reconcile it with your club work."
The report, from a reputable phy
sician, showed that her daughter h,ad
contracted a social disease. Having
become suspicious of something of
the sort, the school nurse had re
ported her suppositions to the judge
because of his close co-operation with
he schools. A physical examination
was arranged for the girl.
She was a pretty little thing, spoil
ed to the nth degree. Willingly she
had told us her side of the story.
Ilr mother spent, most of her time
nway from home, attending to what
she in her vanity called her "social
duties." Left to her own devices, the
girl had fallen into bad company,
with tragic results, for bad company
s no respector of social lines.
"It can't be true," the socialite
whined, while her frightened eyes
and her twitching hands indicated
she realized only too well that it
was true.
"Yes, but it is true," the judge
vas .saying. "Ann is waiting in the
other room. You are to blame for
her predicament because you didn't
have time enough to train your
daughter. Bridge was far too im
portant. I must make some disposi
tion of her case. What do you want
me to do? Send her to an institu
tion where she will be cured and out
of your way? Or do you think you
can live up to your duties as a
mother?"
"Give my daughter back to me,
judge," the mother pleaded. "I swear
I'll take care of her. Damn bridge;
damn parties; I want my baby."
How wide a gulf may separate
child and parent, each following his
will-o'-the-wisp pleasure! Many times
the juvenile court room has been the
scene of a birth, the birth of better
understanding.
A World's Fair Sculptor
Somebody or something was
skillfully stealing milk and cream
from porches in a certain neighbor
hood of a Madison county, Nebraska
town. It must be the timber squir
rels, because the empty bottles were
always left on the premises, and ac
tion against them was contemplated.
So ran the story in the local news
paper. A few days later a boy was sur
prised in the act of robbing a neigh
bor's ice box. He was promptly
brought into Juvenile court. During
the informal discussion of his activi
ties he admitted pilfering several
ice boxes and also stealing the milk
and cream from porches.
The victims of his petty thefts,
jsome of them highly Indignant, ap
peared at the hearing. Taey all
made the same complaint; Tom bad
county town of 250 Domilation. This
was estimated at $12,000. Five build
ings were completely destroyed by
the flames and a sixth wa3 badly
damaged. The only building left
standing in the block-long area were
the Lebanon State bank brick build
ing and an unoccupied frame struc
ture. FILES ANSWER IN LICENSE CASE
LINCOLN, Sept. 9 (UP) At
torney Philip Klutznick filed an ans
wer brief with the Nezraska supreme
court today holding that the auto
mobile dealer's license law test case
is without foundation.
The test case was taken to the court
by A. C. Nelson and seeks to dismiss
the license law on unconstitutional
grounds. In his brief in behalf of
State Engineer A. C. Tilley, who is
responsible for enforcement of the
law, Klutznick charged that the plain
tiff ia asking the court "to uphold
their constitutional right to engage
even in 'dirty business tactics and
'cut throat competition." He held
that regulation under police power
by a system of licensing was uncon
stitutional.
Phone Printing orders to No. 6.
stolen only milk, cheese, custards,
and any other milk products in the
refrigerators. It seemed strange that
he coveted only milk products and
left fruit, candy and other sweets
severely alone.
Tom was indeed a pitiful little
fellow as he faced his accusers and
admitted the charges were true. It
seemed that there was some deep
seated cause for his one-sided thiev
ery and we must find that cause to
correct the error of liis ways.
Our first step wjisjjto send Tom to
a physician for a complete physical
and mental examination. Meanwhile
we inquired of his teacher as to his
school record. She reported that he
was a consistent truant; came to
classes with hands and face dirty,
hair disheveled, dress slovenly; and
of late had been drifting into bad
habits. ( .
The physician stated . that Tom
was normal mentally but that he was
suffering from the severest case of
rickets that he had 'seen In his 35
years of practice. He said, further,
that Tom's physical health was com
pletely wrecked, due to calcium de
ficiency In his food over a long per
iod. He furnished a diet list, a list
that, strangely enough, contained
every item that Tom had been steal
ing except one cod liver oil. Poor
Tom! What a wretched bit of hu
manity he was!
Next we looked into Tom's home
life. We found that his mother had
died three years before, when Tom,
an only child, Mas 12 years old. Dis
couraged, grief-stricken over the
death of his wife, the father was
drinking heavily; but because he
was fond of Tom he was trying, with
out assistance, to maintain their
home.
Investigation disclosed further that
the father would leave in the morn
ing before Tom awakened, and at
night he would bring home bread,
bologna and other cold, canned meats
never was there any milk, nor was
a hot meal provided.
The father was given the doctor's
diet -list and instructed to see that
his son received the proper food. ' In
specific terms he was told what he
must do to avoid losing Tom to an
orphanage.
Tom, then, was placed on proba
tion. A careful watch was kept to
learn whether the doctor's orders
were followed. They were, and the
change in Tom was noticeable al
most immediately. With ample food
of the right sort at home there was
no need for him to steal. His father
gave up the use of liquor, for now
he had an ideal to strive toward
the creation of a real home for Tom.
Having been graduated in due
time from high school, Tom turned
his thoughts to sculpturing.
It would have been much easier
for us to have committed Tom to a
correctional institution than to have
worked out his salvation at home. It
would not have required, the time
nor the trouble we took to straight
en out his life. . . . But when we
visited the World's Fair in Chicago
and saw on exhibit Tom's master
pieces, hewed out of perpetual stone,
we realized, as never before, that the
result justified our efforts.
Nebraska Home
of PEO Society
at Beatrice
Presented to the Society by Mr. and
Mrs. J. Stuart Elliott and
Hakes Ideal Home.
The Nebraska P. E. O. Home waa
presented to Nebraska state chap'Si
by Mr. and Mrs. J. Stuart Elliott of
Beatrice, Nebr., and was originally
the R. J. Kilpat rick home.
The Home is a spacious brick
house of twenty rooms set on a beau
tifully landscaped plot of ground very
near the downtown area of Beatrice
and in close proximity to many
churches.
It was dedicated in May 1938 after
some remodeling and many of the
furnishings were given by different
chapters and members over the state.
At present the Home is in charge
of Miss Gertrude Brown of Crete, as
superintendent, who is a woman of
culture and efficiency, having had
experience in caring for people of
various ages and she has also had
training in the Taylor Training
School of Los Angeles where she
completed a course in Home and In
stitutional management.
The Home is available to any Ne
braska P. E. O. It is governed of
course by a board of trustees and
applicants who can afford to do so
are expected to pay an admission fee
but it is also available to needy mem
bers.
The purpose of this movement was
to provide not only a home for needy
members but a home for members
seeking companionship and pleasant
surroundings in which to pass the
time that comes to all in old age.
This Home is the result of a de
sire of Nebraska state chapter to care
for her own and give them a feeling
of security and companionship after
they no longer have homes or family
ties of their own.
AGRICULTURAL CON
SERVATION PROGRAM
Wheat growers in Cass county have
received $39,601.34 of extra wheat
income this harvest through "All
Risk" crop insurance, it was report
ed today at the county ACP office.
More than 467 crop losses suffered
by insured growers have been settled.
The cash equivalent of these Indemn
ities is approximately $39,601.34.
"All these indemnity payments re
ceived by .Cass county growers rep
resent income they would have lost
if their crops had not been Insured,"
it was pointed out by Martin Blum,
county committeeman. Head of crop
insurance. "We know that these in
demnity payments are doing a lot of
work for farmers, too. They are be
ing used to pay interest on loans, to
pay up back bills, for home improve
ments, to finance the planting of
other crops, and the like. In many
rases indemnities are providing the
funds for preparing the seedbed and
buying the seed for the 1940 wheat
crop."
He said that adjustment of losses
to the 1939 crop was about 70 per
cent completed, and that practically
all settlements will be finished with
in the next few weeks.
Meanwhile the 1940 crop insur
ance program is moving along here
at a rapid clip. So far policy- appli
cations have been received from more
than 1,200 growers. Applications
and premium payments must be made
before wheat is seeded, or not later
than September 20, 1939.
With the threat of war at our
very doorstep it seems urgent that
we impress on each farmer, having
corn under seal on their farm, the
importance of keeping that corn in
their own possession. Each day
brings a rise in the market value of
grains and with this fact in mind,
we see a definite possibility for each
producer, who reseals his corn, to
make a sizable profit in the near
future.
If each producer stops to consider
the crisis at hand they will take
advantage of that crisis and reseal.
This is your chance to get a full and
normal price for your corn. Don t
fail to look ahead. You may need
the profit.

NEW SPEED LAW IN EFFECT
Noting that the new highway
speed limit law went into effect
Friday, Capt. R. T. Schrein of the
state safety patrol made a plea for a
"declaration of war against acci
dents." The new law limits the speed to
60" miles per hour in daylight and 50
miles per hour at night, with a 40
mile limit on trucks of five tons or
more at any time. Cities and incor
porated towns or villages may enact
ordinances which curb speed in their
jurisdiction, but a state law also
makes 25 miles per hour the lawful
limit in residence districts and 20
miles the limit in business districts,
whether or not there are local laws.
Local boards may set their limits
lower if they wish.
"So far this year," said Schrein,
"175 families have attended funeral
services for a member of the family
killed in traffic. Thousands have
paid and are still paying heavy bills
Incurred as result of traffic mishaps."
SAYS TOWLE SORE
LINCOLN, Sept. 9 (UP) State
Fair Secretary Perry Reed charged
today that County Attorney Max
Towle's action against twelve fair
concession operators on gambling
charges was a "revenge move to get
even" for a similar' action at last
year's fair which Towle lost.
Towle succeeded this year in ob
taining a total of $850 in fines
against the operators after lie recom
mended court leniency because the
fair board had led the concession
company to believe the fair would
be "wide open."
"Towle is sore about the Max
Goodman (concession operatcr) in
cident last summer, which went
against him," Reed said. "At that
time he admitted the fair board's
authority was supreme on the fair
grounds and now by his action he
denies it." In the Goodman case.
Towle sought unsuccessfully to
penalize the defendant for operating
without a license from the county
commissioners.
