Dams -- (Continued from Page 1) Construction of the dams is designed to control water run off from about 2,500 acres in this watershed with the help of good conservation on the land and prevent repetition of disas trous floods of 1942 and 1917. Dam 10 A, south of 1st Avenue and west of Maiden Lane, has been designed to control runoff from about 192 acres of the to tal of about 1,600 acres in the Washington Avenue, Chicago Avenue, Main Street watershed. It will impound water to form a permanent lake covering a bout five acres. An estimated 20,800 cubic, yards of earth will be used to build the dam. It will have a maximum height of 22.8 feet and a reinforced concrete 18-inch spillway. This dam and 18A on the New ton Sullivan farm about one or v2 miles southeast of the city will be designed to handle a 24 hour rainfall double the largest known rainstorm in 21 hours in this region. Largest known rains are 14l2 inches at Syracuse and York in 1950 and 1951. The dams, with double the safety factor needed to handle such a rain, would thus have capacity of 29 inches in 24 hours. The top of Dam 10 A will be level with the railroad grade. Fauquet said Monday night his Flood Control Committee would take immediate steps to take u;) options on several properties concerned with 10 A and nego tiate further with one property owner who had not agreed to an option. The "lake" from 18 A will cover 4.12 acres permanently. Its construction will take an es timated 20.320 cubic yards of earth. It will have an 13-in.ch spillway. Included in the federal parti cipation is fencing of dam areas and seeding of dam siopes. Fauquet said $16,109 was paid or pledged into the dam fund originally but that only $3,802 lias been paid In so far. Those making pledges had had been asked to pay one-half their pledges the first year. Fauquet said the state conser vation people had asked that both dams be ready for con tract letting next spring in or der to provide a more attrac tive job for contractors consid eration. Probation Officer For This Area Cass and 6 other counties in this region of Nebraska have a new probation officer appointed by district judges of the 1st and 2nd judicial districts. j He is Jack Ryder, Nebraska Chy.

NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY OURNAI Thursday, January 10, 1958 PAGE SEVEN Interstate To Progress at Rate of $25 Million a Year By MIXYIN PAI L Statcliouse Correspondent The Nebraska Press Association LINCOLN Reams of New co py have flowed from Washing ton and Lincoln on the 487.9 mlle Interstate Highway in Ne braska, but there are relatively few new fads revealed. State Engineer L. N. Itcss sum med it up tills way: 1. The price tag on the route, as of now, is estimated at $283 million. That will change in 19G0, probably upward, when a new calculation is made. 2. The exact route of the sup er highway from Lincoln west has not been announced, will not be for some time. 3. Details revealed in Lincoln last week were merely a closer analysis of the north of Die Plat te route proposed by the High way Department to the federal government. 4. The northern route, as it s called, was proposed only to en able a cost estimate to be made for submission to Congress and is net necessarily the final lo cation. One of the new items, in addi tion to the latest cost estimate, is the fact the highway will fol low the bed of the Platte riv er as closely as possible. This will produce an econo mical route in that land will be relatively cheap and the de partment will not have to cross as many roads as if it were moved further inland. There was no change in the progress of the route yearly through 13G0 as previously out lined by Ress up to $25 million worth of construction per year. After 1960, the rate will de pend upon how much money is appropriated by Congress. TAX I X V 1 1ST I G A TION The tax investigating commi tce, headed by Sen. Terry Car penter of Seottsblutf is plowing ahead, undaunted by Gov. Vic tor Anderson's refusal to call a special session of the Legisla ture. The committee wanted th.? governor to do so to bring about, tax reform. Commission -- (Continued from Page li chairmanship of the County Board. "Inasmuch as the chairman ship was held by board members of the 2nd and 3rd districts for the past 0 years, I feel it is only proper and fitting that I now proclaim and as.mme the duties of chairman in the name of the 1st district whom I re present, beginning this 14th day of January, 1958" He asked after reading the statement whether anyone had any question or comment. The only response was a question from the Journal representa tive who asked Nolte if he had checked whether what had just transpired could be constituted a "regular convened meeting." Nolte replied that he had checked with representatives of other counties on the visual custom of rotation of the chair manship. He didn't comment on the procedure. County Atty. James Begley declined to comment on the question of legality of either action. Bornemeier, ronfacteil hy phone Wednesday morning, said the matter vnukl like ly come up for discussion Tuesday with the county attorney present. And, Bornemeier said, What-I ever interpretation the county i attorney puts on this statement of Nolte's, I'll follow it. If he ; says the election was illegal. I'll abide by that." ' ! At the same time, Borre nieii r said lie has ' no particular fond ue, s lor the hairir.anship" and "if Nolte wants to be chiiinan, that bad he can have it." ! At his late Tuesday v,mc:i, Nolte said he would have no ob- : jection to being both chainnan and chainnan of the Wchate Board. At the ornuntAUior.al mee'nr:; Nolte had been chairman for tin vuti d wolf. C.h st: hi year. 2-9, with one u;'e sed." Borneim-ier hail been v, ( ha:nnar., 2-1, on the .-ixth lot lor that office. Ni.a'e (ieeiarett ti.'ai tie '. Ill,, , I to ,ovea (Jio vi ch.unr...'!. i ip "under the sent conditions." 'pas But, Gov. Anderson polled the. senators and announced 29 were against the session, 12 for it. That stopped the special ses sion talk on taxes since 29 is two thirds of the law-makers and even if the governor had decid ed to summon lawmakers back, little could have been accom plished. Carpenter has slated hearing for later this month and will taikle the problem of tax ex emption for Ak-Sar-Ben, Oma ha civic Organisation, about Feb. 1. He said if records and In formation he wants belore then are not forthcoming, he will sub poena them. TJU'CK SALES The trucker who makes a moonlight dash around areas the 12 .state-owned weighing scales are located, will have a new foe, come warmer weather. The State Highway Depart ment announced it is going to put. into operation portable truck weighing scales, mainly to catch trucks that by-pass the station ary uik s. Portable scales can produce much the same effect as radar used by the Safety Patrol for spei ders, in that tin y will bo mobile and there will be no way of knowing where the equipment will be located. POLITICS The Republicans are going to launch the 1958 campagin in February with a. series of Lin coin Day fund-raisin;; dinners. Meanwhile, the Democrats are beating the bushes lor candida tes, spurred by an announce ment from Lawrence Brock of Wakefield, that he is going to taiifle again with Rep. Robert Harrison, Republican incum bent, in the third district. A rumor that Roy Cochran, former Democratic governor, would enter political wars again made the rounds in the Capital City. But Cochran stamped this out by stating that alhr his three terms as governor and 44 years of public serdre "I've had It". K MIAVAY COMMISSION There have been .-rime chang es in the State Railway Comm issi':!!, topped by election of Richard Larson, as chairman, succeeding Joseph Brown. The chairmanship of the commission i.s rotated. Wayne Swanson new member on the board, is vice chairman. Meanwhile, the commission appointed Wade A. Hail of Oma ha, aetiiig secretary to succeed Fred Htuibut, who resigned Jan. 1 to enter private law prac tice. Wade, fonner bus official and accountant, will draw $6,000 per year.
