This response by citizens of Ne
braska comes at a tuberculosis
crisis. It is plain that war and
tuberculosis are distinct allies In
Europe almost every country has
experienced a decided Upswing m
tuberculosis due to long hours, in
sufficient rest, poor nutrition hab

diminished medical staffs.
The rise in the United States has
not come as yet but official? think
It inevitable. Only the purchase of
Christmas Seals can prevent us
from being caught by a rise in
tuberculosis in Nebraska.

25c OUT OF EVERY DOLLAR
NEBRASKA POWER RECEIVES
Nebraska Power is Omaha's biggest taxpayer. One
fourth of the Company's annual revenue now goes
for taxes that the people would have to pay if
Nebraska Power didn't.
In 1943, Nebraska Power's total tax bill, local and
federal, will amount to $2,500,000. Every dollar of this
money is vitally needed not only to help maintain
the city's schools, streets, fire and police departments
and other necessary activities, but also to help supply
our armed forces with the equipment they must have
to win the war.
Our customers know that practically everything costs
more these days, and they appreciate the fact that
our experienced business management has been able
to keep electric rates as low as ever ... even though
the Company's taxes have jumped more than 57%
since 1940 and our cost of doing business has tremen
dously increased.
These are among the many reasons so many citizens
feel that Omaha should KEEP the experienced busi
ness management that made this record possible.
There is no reason to gamble Nebraska Power's fine
service, low rates and good, tax-paying citizenship
for the uncertainties of political management

CIO HOLDS WAR
EFFORT RALLY
Remember Pearl Harbor Day is
more than a slogan to American
workers. December 7th will ie
main a page in our history' book as
a day of the most dastardly attack
upon our nation by the Japs.
Two years have elapsed since
our nation was struck by the mir
ror of war. Many well meaning
Americans today are too optimis
tic in regard to the winning of the
war. The attitude of thousands of
American workers is that the war
is already won. This false optim
ism is dangerous. The CIO nation
ally and locally does not harbor
these ideas.
Various CIO conventions have
pledged and reiterated their pledg
es on no strikes for the duration.
The CIO program throughout the
country is to awaken the workers
as to the necessity of a stronger,
fuller war effort.
On December 7th at 7:30 pm. at
the City Auditorium, Omaha work
ers met to hear a program sponsor
ed by the CIO Council of Omaha !n
cooperation with the Public Rela
tion: Department of the V. S.
Army. This event was the bigge3t
event Of the year to out Omaha
workers.
Heading the program R. J.
Thomas, President of the UAW
CIO. and Vice-President of the Na
tional CIO. was in Omaha as one
of the principal speakers. Ma,or
Jack Adams, who was at Pearl
Harbor December 7, 1941 and who
has been awarded the distinguished,
flying cross and distinguished ser
vice cross gave a graphic story of
that event. He has seen consider
able service in the South Pacific
and helped evacuate General Mae
Arthur’s staff from the Phillipines.
Corp. Dwight Farmer, who was
wounded eleven times in North Afr
ica and Sicily, the only man lett
alive out of a reconnaissance detail
of twelve men, also told a story.
Private Matthews E. O’Marra, dis
tinguished service in Attu against
the Japs.
The Fort Crook military' band
opened the meeting and was a part
of the program. Captured Jap and
Nazi war equipment was scheduled
to be on display.
On the home front the necessity
of rationing and price control was
discussed by Edward Stegan, OP A
Regional Executive of Washington
D. C.
This entire CIO. war effort rally
was free to the public.
