TO WHOEVER WROTE THIS: The message below was received in the mail with out any signature or other identification. But who ever wrote it has expressed in plain, understandable language, the reasons Omaha citizens are anxious to keep Nebraska Power Company as it is. We extend our thanks to the author. The success and progress of every business enterprise is dueAto the Exceptional fitness and efficiency of its executives. The reason men rise to such leader-'., ship is their possession of outstanding ability, energy, experience and power to inspire fellow workers. The Nebraska Power Company offers indisputable proof of these facts. But when politics enter into the conduct of any business, these vital items are ignored and the relation between buyer and seller is ignored. The record of the Nebraska Power Company for over 23 years past beats a thousand distorted promises coming from any source. We wrote in the words "in large measure" because we are fully aware that it takes the combined effort and skill of all of our Company's employees — as well as efficient management — to provide dependable electric service at low cost.

The communication should also be marked “United Stat es Prisoner of War.” The Red Cross has also been in structed that persons wishing to send a legal document, such as a power of attorney or will, to a prisoner held by either Germany or Japan should correspond with the War Department Office of the Provost General, con cerning the safeest and most expedi tious method of transmission. Mrs. Whitcomb said that her com mittee has been informed that Amer ican officers in German camps are permitted to write three letters and four post cards a month; non-com missioned officers and enlisted men may write two letters and four cards a month. Sanitary personnel and Chaplains may write twice as many letters and cards a month as their corresponding ranks in the services are permitted to write. Mrs. Whitcomb pointed out, that because activities in the European theatre are increasing and railroad centers are frequently targets for bombing, it is reasonable to expect that communications between prison ers and their famflfes will be disrupt ed. Detailed information regarding mail and packages for war prisoners may be obtained at the Douglas County Red Cross Chapter House, 208 South 33rd St. from the prison ers of war committee.
