The repeal of. the 18th Amendment. This amendment should be given serious consideration by every voter. The following are a few of the things you should consider before passing judgment on this Amendment. If this Amendment is not passed on November 6„ will the law eforee I cement body be in position to seep | illegal liquor out of the hands of those i who desire it? With every stat on each ; side « four state wet. even Kansas, shall j Nobrska become an inepubator for the now bootlegger? Of course, gangster killings are alwya connected with the bootlegging world. Shall we prevent the many dollars tht will be pid for taxes from being paid into the Treasure in our state. In theise depressed times of unemployment shall wre prevent an industrial institutio of employment from employing our own citizens or shall we allow our money to be carried into other states for employment?

BILL GREEN, CANDIDATE FOI COUNTY SURVEYOR ENDORSE" BY THE GOODFELLOWS CLUB 01 ONE THOUSAND The Ctoodfellows club of 1,00 has in creased it* number to 6,00 registered of both demcrafcl and republicans, fo William “Bill” Green as County Su veyor Mr- John A- Woods, president of th Club, says on investigation of the re cords in Douglas County Court House he cannot find the vouchers or pay check', for the five Negroes that the sppeaker at the “L’‘ Garage claimed in voters of the second and seventh ward his talk, worked in the County Surve or^s office under the present County Surveyor- Mr- Woodki says every Ne gro in Douglas County should investi gate the record of Bill Green for his qualifications and his fairness in givin the Negroes f Omaha, not a 7 per cent but a 14 per cent Mr- Green says the Negro has been kept out of his pro rata so long that if it is doubled, now i would be no more than fair- Mr Woods says Bill Green will carry th second third wards five to one. The Goodfellowi Club of 1,000 haf made a check of the candidates foi Public officers, having in mind at the time of the investigation, to acquain the voting public of the merits anc qualifications of the respective candi dates. Do you know that the three hundre positions are available in the County Surveyor’s office? At the present tim none of these ppositions are held by a colored voter, caused by the fact tha during the past 13 years we have plac ed a man in office who hals tumecnhis back on us when it came time to fil these positions. Are we going to co tinue to support men who do not giv us representation? The time ha come for the colored voters of Omaha to Isay “NO.” William “Bill” Green, has been fai in the past, and we can depend upon him in the future. Bill Green, during his 11 yr?'. as loreman oi me umana Street Cleaning Dep«,rtmfent, tinde Dean Noyes, had employed more col ored employees than any other depart ment of our city government. Not be cause they were colored, but because as he says, they were dependable, an rendered efficient service. Bill Green -jays that if elected Com ty Surveyor he will continue the sam policy of giving colored voters theii share of representation, and will b< given jobs based upon our ability t< perform them- '. Such a fair Statement deserves th< support of every colored voter in th city and county. We, the Goodfellow: Club of 1,00, urge our friends to voti and work on the election of Bill Gree for County Surveyor of Douglas Cou ty SIGNED: GOODFELLOWS CLUB OF 1000 Jhn A. Wood, Chairman, Chas.

Brannon, 2802 N. 30th St. Omaha - We are giving you this advice a we thought possibly your subscriber would be interested in knowing wh were the prize winners Yours Truly, Haskin Brothers and Compan ORE - HOUSE LEGISLATURE (Continued from page 1) could function with two boards of dir rect esroqual in authority. II. A one-house legislature wiU make possible the definite fixing of respon sibility for action taken on aD bills in troduced; where two bodies of persons are involved it Is hard to fix blame. It will not be possible ax. now to shift htAme from one house to another. Pub lic attention will be focused upon a single b*dy. permitting close scrutiny of all egislative proceedings while laws are in the process of enactment. Kach member of a one-house legislature will be more important and therefore more conspicuous. The public will be enabled I to watch his acts and reward or pun ish him accordingly. HI. A one-house legislature will de crease greatly the opportunity for cor ruption; special interests desiring to kilt proposed legislation find their w*y twic® as easy when it Is necessary conks*! or corrupt only one of two houses IV. Legislation by conference com mittees will be abolished. Approximately 15 per cent of all bills, and 75 per cent of all important meas ures, enac ed into law are the product of some conference committee. When a bill passes one branch of the legisla ture, is amended in the other house, and the first house refuses to concur In the amendments, a conference com mittee is selected by the presiding of ficers of the two houses. This con ference committee in reality constitu tes a third house. The people have no voice as to who its members shall be, its work is performed in secret, and committee is submitted to the House and the Senate, it cannot be amended It must be voted up or down as a I whole. Members must take what they believe to be bad in order to secure what they believe to be good. Legis lation by conference commiteee is secret, irresponsible legislalon by fivte or six men appointed at the suggestion of party leaders. A one-house legisla ture w1l end all of thia.| V. The t*x burden of til* state will be reduced by the adoption of the one Irouse legislature proposal. Appropriations for the 1933 session of the Legislature totalled $301,663.13. Of this, $110,504.73 was expended for salaries and mileage of 133 members; $37,275.25 for salaries of 15 officers and 70 employees; $4,360.20 for postage; $8,4*0.27 for supplies and incidentals, and $12,403.54 for printing of the House and Senate Journals. Under the pro l*osed plan $75,000.00 will be the maxi mum amount that can be paid out Jn salaries for members of the Legisla ture. Instead of 10 cents a mile, the members will receive actual traveling expenses only. The amount necessary to be spent for employees, postage, printing and so on, will of course be more than cut in half. VI. By providing that the members shall be nominated and elected on a nonpartisan ballot, the one-house legis lature will be divorced from partisan politics. Honest emn may disagree on tho NRA tariff, and League of Nations, but the Legislature of Nebraska has nothing to do with those quesionst «nd its mem bers should neither be elected nor de feated on those issues. The bst qualified men and wmoen should be elected to ih Legislature regardless of their views on national issues. The representation from the rural areas will be decreased by reason of the fewer members to the same extent and in the same proportion as the re presentation from the cities will be de creased. The relative strength of* the farm territory and the cities in the Legislature will of course remain ex actly the same. The claim that two houses insure careful deliberation and prevent ill-con sidered and carelessly drawn legisla tion now pouring out of two-chamber legislative factories. With fewer mem bers to introduce bills and no last hour conference committee reports to consider, the one-house Legislature would be an unhurried deliberate body. In this manner rash and hasty legis lation can be prevented. Under the one-house system the Governor will still have his right of veto. The people will still possess the power to suspend any bill under the Referendum and submit it to popular vote. Thd Supreme Court will still have authority to nullify any act in contravention of the constitution. In order to prevent hasty legislation it is not necessary to render the Legisla not necessary to render the Legisia. ture feeble, in impotent, and inefficient, by dividing it into two antagonistic bodies.

Kemp, of Fulton, Nebr., Re publioan candidate for United States Senate, unexpired term says he be ,lev«n in Negroes' pro rata of employ ment in proportion to his population an the votes he casts, and if he is I elected to the United States Senate he will inequivocably take that stand J. H. Kemp has been a c&ndidat five times for public office- He serv ed two terms as State Senator fror his own district, two terms froi Nance County and one term on th Board of Education. In 1914 he ra for Governor of Nebraska against R B. Howe. Mr- Kemp is one of tha highest class citizens of Fulton, Nebr* a leading attorney and a pioneer cA the Western plains J. H. Kemp was born on a farm near Luray, Va., in 1872. He gradual ed from the William and Mary Co lege at Williamsburg, Va., and s*r ed three years as principal of Han| burg School- He came to Nebrask in 1896 and graduated from, la^ school of the University of Nebrask with the claas of 1898. He settled ill Fulton Nebr-, that same year an has been there every since. His mai interest is in farms and farming- Fo the pa»t ten years he has given mo* of his time to agriculture and stock! rawing. Mr- Kemp says he believes Nebra3 k» must be represented in the extra j session he feels sure will be calle •shortly after the election »n Novemr ber 6- The fact that many of tha Recovery Acta are expiring and th* appropriations are runing low, ana aho the fact that there are mor people on the Federal Relief tha ever before practically assures a extra session- Mr. Kemp says the Iff of Nebraska is in the soil and in liv stock production Mr- Kemp says the trouble today i not so much over production as it i under consumption. He saysl it is e tirely inconsistent, on the part of th Government to require the farmer t increase production and at the sam time spend millions of dollars on it rigation projects. He says the cos of Government is mounting as neve before. The p®st year and a hal the cost has been $7,000,000 more tha any equal period previous. Mr Kemp says every person, howeve humble, is paying a part of this i create in government- The man i tha factory, the man on the stree and the farmer in overalls help t pay this cost of government by pay lng for what he uses. Mr. Kemp says if he Is elected, he will use the ia fluence of his office to curtail the e pense of operation of our Govern ment J. H. Kemp says if he is elected h will support the NAACP. in their e forts to make the lynching of a h man being a federal offense. Mr Kemp spy8 ho 'believes avenues o employment should open up in ou national and local government to youth of the Negro race who is cor ing out of the high schools and un verstes and if ho is elected, he wi4 ;use the influence of his office to ge 'as many appointments as possible fo our girls and boys.
