MAXIE j MILLER —MARRIED MAN PROPOSESbm y MARRIED MAN PROPOS ES ELOPEMENT AND PROMISES TO “GET MARRIED” — MEN ARE GAY DCCEIVERS, NELLY BLY — SUCH A THING IS ALL WRONG AND W ILL BRING CERTAIN PUN IHMENT—BETTER NOT: (For advice, write to Maxie Miller, care o>f the iLterary Service Bureau, 516 Minnesota Ave., Kansas City, Kas. For personal reply send self- address ed stamped envelope..) Maxie Miller: A married man wants me to run off with him. He says he’ll be nice to me and we’ll get married as soon as he can get a divorce. He «ays he’s been in love with me a long time and he never did love hi wife- I don’t love this man much but I think I could, ifhe 'd be nice to me. J am twenty-two years old, I’m not educated and I’m tired of working in service. What do you think? Do you think he’ll be nice?— Nelly Bly? Nelly Bly: How could you consid er such a thing? It would be a sin against the wife and a man who’d treat one woman that way would deal so with another. He’s not to be trust ed- iTf you could take him from his wife, some one could take him from you. Then, how do you know he’d marry you? The probability is that he wold not, and would tire of you and drop you. Never do a thing like that, Nelly Bly; it is all wrong and yo’ll regret it if you do. Remember L “men are gay deceivers.” — Maxie " Miller.

VOTE “YES” The present two-house Legis" Intive system is an historical ac cident. The structure of our state legsi latures was carried over from the make-up of .the colonial legislative bodies as they existed in 177C. The colonial legislatures, naturally, were patterned after the mother country England, and England’s Parliment at that met was a two house body, one chamber representing the English nob ility and aristocracy, the other the common people. % No good reason now exists for con tinuing this slavish imitation of an> ancient English legislative system now in effect discarded even by England itself. Nebraska does not give special representation to specially privileged classes. Adoption of the one-house Legisla-, ture proposal will result in the follow ing advantages: I. Tlie jeasousy, friction, ami rival-1 ry between the two houses, which of ten results in deadlocks and the de feat of constructive legislation, will lie eliminated by a one-house legisla ture. Benjamin Franklin long ago compar ed a twoechambered legislature to a wagon with a horse hitched at each j end and the two pulling in opposite dir I eetions. The cities of America long ago abandoned as unworkable the two- i chamber council system, could function with two boards of dir rect esroqunl in authority. II. A one-liouse legislature will make possible the definite fixing of respon sibility for action taken on all bills in troduced, where two bodies of persons are involved it Is hard to fix blame. It will not be possible as now to shift blame from one house to another. Pub lic attention will be focused upon a single body, permitting close scrutiny of all egislative proceedings while laws are in the process of enactment. Each member of a one-house legislature will be more important and therefore more conspicuous. The public will be enabled 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 kill proposed legislation find their w*y twice as easy when it is necessary to control or corrupt only one of two Iiouses. IV. Legislation by confer once com mittees will be abolished. Approximately 15 pier cent of all bills, and 75 pier cent of all impiortant meas ures, enacted 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 firs* 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 whole. Members must take what they believe to be bad in order to secure what they believe to be good. Legis lation by conference oommitees is secret, irresponsible legislnion by fivte or six men appointed at the suggestion of party leaders. "A one-house legisla ture wil end all of this. I V. The tax burden of the state will he reduced by the adoption of the one house legislature proposal. Appropriations for the 1933 session of the Legislature totalled $201,668.13 Of this, $110,504.72 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; $8,480.27 for supplies and incidentals, and $12,403.54 for printing of the House and Senate Journals. Under the pro posed plan $75,000.00 will be the maxi mum amount that can be paid out In salaries for members of the Legisla-! ture. Instead of 10 cents a mile, the mombers will receive actual traveling expenses only. The amount necessary! to be spent for employees, postage,, printing and so on, will of course be1 more than cut in half. \ I. I>y providing that the members ‘•hall be nominated and elected mi a nonpartisan ballot, the one-house legis laturo will be divorced from partisan politics. Honest emn may disagree on the NRA tariff, and League of Nations, but the Legislature of Nebraska has nothing to do with those quesionst and its mem bers should neither be elected nor de feated on those issues. The bst qualified men and wmoen should be elected to tii 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 ot veto. The people will still possess the power to suspend any bill under the Referendum - and submit it to popular vote. Thei 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 Legisla ture feeble, in impotent, and inefficient by dividing it Into two antagonistic bodies.

CTEs TAYLOR Present STATE SUPERINTENDENT ASKS YOUR SUPPORT FOR RE-ELECTION (Non-Political Ballot ~DAMP WASH14 fj?48c Emerson Laundry WE. ia29 2324 NORTH 24TH STREET "" ' 1 " """ — - - • *. — _- * - * . . .. — RIGHT TO VOTE— lu the 1925 Session of the Nebraska State Legislature, Dwight Griswold then, a Senator, and now a Candidate for Governor, introduced in the Senate Resolution No. 211. He proposed to amend the State Constitution by adding a section as fol lows : “No person shall be qualified to vote unless he can demonstrate ability to read, write, and understand the English language.” This most vicious measure aimed at minority groups, which would have disqualified thousands of Negro voters as well as foreign borns, is an echo of southern disfranchisement of the Negro vote. It is to be found in every southern state wherein the Negro is disfranchised. Can Nebraska afford Jo elect a man who habors such racial antipathies? Nt*. THE “PINT” LAW. In this same session of the Legislature, the then Senator Griswold introduced Senate File No. 9S one clause as follows: “Providing, however, the carrying or trans i porting of more than one pint of intoxicating liquor shall be prima facie evidence that such liquor is being carried or transported foe the purpose of sale,” and making a prison sentence mandatory. This bill displays dry fanaticism. Does Nebraska want a fanatic for governor? No. “ENGLISH LANGUAGE BILL.” In 1921, the Nebraska Legislature passed the so called English Language Bill. A part of this is as follows: “No person individually or as a teacher, shall in private, denominational or parochial or public school, teach any subject to any person in any lan guage other than the English Language.” Mr. Griswold voted for tMs bill. Also, on page 1411, Nebraska House Journal, 1921 there appears the following: “During roll call Mr. Griswold moved to call of the House, which was agreed to.”' “Call of the House” means that members who may be temporarily absent, can be sent for by the sergeant-at-arms and forced to vote. There were not enough members in the House at the time to pass the bill, so (Mr. Griswold took no chances; he forced them to vote. The United States Supreme Court later declar ed this English Language Law unconstitutional. The effect of this law would have directly hit Catholic Parochial School, Wherein religion goes hand in hand with elementary and academic train ing in Catholic Communities of foreign descent. Does Nebraska want an intolerant or bigot for governor? No! Then let Nebraska go on record as opposed to discrimination or disfranchisement and adhere to the right of the ballot to all citizens, whether of majority or minority groups, Negro, foreign born, Catholic, Protestant or Caucasian. Reiterate the principal of religious toleration and freedom, whether Catholic, Jew or Gentile, checking fan aticism whether it be “dry” or “wet.” Take a stand against racial hatred, religious in tolerance and bigotry by voting for Roy L. Cochran, Democrat, for Governor. Mr. Cochran is firm in his beliefs of justice and fair play, believing in toleration in all things, the right of ballot to all people, and that' government is for the benefit of the people and should be extended toward that end, and not that the people should be extended for the benefit of government. He is a Shriner and a Mason, and is pledged to cooperate and aid in every way possible the Roosevelt Administration. For Nebraska’s part in the “New Deal,” VOTE for ROY L. COCHRAN, Democrat for Governor. ANDY JENSEN — —Andy Jensen was the Democrats!

Political Ad Paid for by Committee of one thousan MELODY MAKERS Number 1 of a weekly series of pen sketches of personalities of the world of music “CHICK WEBB” •In every field of endeavor and in every generation there are but few names that gain national prominence as the creators of vogues and trends which dominates a country. In the world of dance music Chick Webb is acclaimed as one of the outstanding ultra-modem rhythm stylists. Origi nator of a definite brand of syncopa tion characterized by a ‘swing’ rhy thm, his individualistic style is aped and copied by other band leaders throughout the country. Although Chick has been playing dance music for more years than he cares to remember, it is only recently that he has entered the ‘big money* class. Rght now he is - riding high on the crest of a national popularity wave. Directly responsible for his fame is his almost daily broadcasts on the National Broadcating Compa ny’s eoast-to-coast network, in addi tion to his nightly programs heard on the new American Breadcasting System chain Currently, Webb and his orchestra is the attraction at the Savoy, New York’s famous styow-plq^e. Past seasons have found Chick purveying his infectious rythms at the New York Cotton Club, the recently closed Connies' Inn, or Broadways newest night-spot, Casino De Paree. He has successful engagements chalked to his credit at Roseland, New York, as well as many other ballrooms thruout America. In theatrical parlance, Webb’s band is known as a ‘show stopper,’ his stage appearances being greeted with wild acclaim- Only re cently he was forced to do 23 encores of one number, holding the show 40 minutes overtime His recordings for the newly form ed Decca Company, have leaped Into the 'best seller’ class- His newest discs “Let’s Get Together” and “Free /Love” have been widely acclaimed by music critics. Other records include “Lona.’i “Rythm Man,” “Blue Minor,” “Sunnyside of the Street,” and “Lone some Moments.” These tunes were written by Chick in collaboration with Edgar Sampson his first sax player Other members of the Webb organiza tion include: Taft Jordan and Charles Linton, vocalists; - Sandy Williams, Claude Jones, trombonists; Mario Bauza, Renald Jones trumpet; Pete Clark, Elmer Williams, saxaphone, Joe Stelle, piano; John Kirby, bass violin Teddy Hill, popular Harlem maes tro, current feature at the famous Ubangi Club, New York, had a most nusual experience the other night while broadcasting over WMAA and the new American Broadcasting Sys tems networks. After concluding his program and thinking that the mipfraiphone was dead’ Teddy was in conservation with the announcer- Talking of hobbies, Hill stated thathis particular hobby was collecting rare smoking pipes, imagine his great surprise, when, dur ing the next few days, he was pre sented no less than 28 rare pipes as gifts from his admirers, including one used by General Bob Custer, fa- ] mou» for his ‘last stand’ against the Indians. Teddy’s collection now num- j bers over 750 rare pipes from every point on the compass—and believe it or not, the famous baton wielder does not even smoke South Employs 10,000 Teachers Under FERA Harry L.
