Marsh has officially accepted and filed referendum petitions against the revenue measures, submitted by the Nebraska Farm Council. The secretary of state said the Farmers Union- Grange-Farm Bureau coalition submitted 37,924 signatures in 65 counties for popular vote on the gas tax law.

Checking of the motor ve hicle petitions was completed some weeks ago, when the coun cil was credited with 36,852 val id signatures. It had claimed 44,636. The legislature passed both measures to finance Gov. Val Peterson's sweeping highway improvement program. Some of the noise of Attorn ey General James H. Anderson's anti-gambling war had faded out by this week, but the soft spoken chief of the state jus tice department pledged his agents would be alert to "schemes and devices" to cir cumvent his no-gambling edict. His statement followed an an nouncement cf the Omaha Leg ion club that it would drop its "free bingo" game. Anderson said he had three weapons to use: 1. Injunctions against ofTend ers. 2. Requesting the liquor con-, trol commission to cancel the licenses of permit-holders found in violation of Anderson's order. 3. Forfeiture of charters of corporations engaged in gamb ling. Lamoyne J.

The State Banking depart ment this week said "tremen dous traffic" in securing sales by Canadians in the United States has prompted the Ontario Se curities commission to resume policing of the business.

Last January, the Ontario commission turned over to the brokers the task of policing themselves. But nine months' tests of the plan proved unsuc cessful. Seventeen infractions were reported in Nebraska alone, the banking department said.
