Law To Permit Taking Of Rough Fish By Arrow LINCOLN Spring is the tra ditional time lor flurries of ac tivity. But a recent upswing of ac tion by the bowhunters of Ne braska is caused by new legis lation rather than the advent of spring although that could be a helping factor. According to Glen Foster, chief of the fisheries division of the state game commission, archers will need three things to be able to take advantage of thje new law which allows bow and arrow shooting of rough fish a bow, an arrow and, a iishing permit for 1957. The bill, which passed the 1957 legislature with the emer gency clause, has been signed by Gov. Victor Anderson and is now a law. In essence it al lows a fisherman to take rough fishing during the open season, April 1 to Dec. 1, by snagging or by bow and arrow, If they have on their person a valid 1957 Nebraska fishing permit.

Byrl Hearitlge, Route 1, Un ion, enclosed a clipping taken from another newspaper show ing a picture of a female mall carrier at Ravena, N. Y., with a story captioned, "Carrier, Has No Weight Problems." It said Mrs. Paul Falkner's social circle is expanding, but her waist line isn't. As a woman mailman she walks 12.5 miles per day and is the only woman letter car rier in the State of Mew York and we might add, the only one we've ever heard of. So, we stand corrected as we often do on some of our state ments and predictions. We'll be a little more careful in the future and stick to one we are sure of, like frinstance, no wo man in our memory has ever become a father. But. on sec ond thought, with some of the things going on in this old world today, we can't be sure this might be in our future. '' Congressman Cunningham's Capitol Corner" received over this desk each week, is beconv ing a most interesting two pag es of pot purri of the Nation's headquarters. '1 he Congressman has definitely taken an economy position, delving into many es capades that are taking a big chunk of we taxpayers money We'll have to see if we can't find room each week for at least a part of it's comments. Leading off this week, he says, "I've said before that Con gress ought to take a good look at Itself when it talks about economy in government." He tells of a third ofiice building being started. "There were 435 members when there was one building, 435 members now there are two buildings, and there will still be only 435 members when the third building is linished at a cost of over $64 million Then there is a second Senate office building nearing comple tion and on and on. He tells of a bill being sent his committee "to amend the Veterans' Preference Act of 1944 to define mothers for the pur poses of such acts," then adds. "I will look forward to exam- ing the bill in committee to learn why it takes four pages to ctenne mothers." We hope the Congressman will keep us in formedit could be they were trying to define some of the mothers we've got around here. He shouldn't worry too much. We always like to recall that statement by Charles Kettering the industrialist, who once said, "One ol the things we have lo be thankful for is that we don't get as much government as we pay for." It has been the policy of The Journal to pass out favors to local businessmen, if we have any to pass out. We steer clear of numerous leaches who prey on unsuspecting newspaper pub lishers for free publicity and pro motion pieces sent us in truck loads every month. Most are examined closely and placed gen tly in the "round file." Some we re very careful of are the pretty insertion orders received calling for advertising space, with the notation, "Up on receipt of tearsheets and in voice, we will remit." These, too, go into file "13." One such, that many gullible publishers fell for during the past week or two, was from the "Sears Di rect Sales Co., Inc., St. Louis, Mo.", who accompanied inser tion orders with beautiful half page layouts. This outfit has taken news papers for a free ride in Illin ois, Minnesota, and several oth tr states the newspapers run the ads then fail to collect. Right now this outfit is under inves tigation by Better Business Bur eaus, and Sears-Roebuck. The Journal just doesn't accept such advertising. Few ever pay, and we don't think it fair to ex tend credit to these outfits who never pay, then have the in testinal fortitude to present a statement to a local merchant for services rendered when these outfits have tried to cut his throat for free.
