Morrison says he even intends to give the commission, a seven member group, more executive authority than it has had. Former Republican Gov. Vic tor Anderson first began be stowing the effect of executive authority to the commission when he said he would abide by commission decisions except in unusual cases. Democratic Gov. Ralph G. Brooks did not change the sta tus of the commission. Now, Morrison, also a Demo crat doesn't plan any drastic changes either. Power of the commission has been increasing over the years even though it was originally established to advise the gov ernor and state engineer. Morrison says the governor has certain duties regarding road construction in Nebraska and he doesn't intend to shirk these. But, he adds that "from a practical standpoint, states with executive type commis sions have done a better job of road building than we have." Establishmnt of the commis sion took a heavy load off the governor and state engineer in hearing problems by delegations wanting road improvements. jkjj il -''ill --'- r- .-Jk-an-tf No other car con compare with the '6) Ford Galaxie'i Stfa.ght-Line design . . .

TB Hospital Nebraska cannot yet afford to close its tuberculosis hospital at Kearney. That's the opinion of Dr. E. A. Rogers, state health director. The hospital Is under supervi sion of the State Board of Con trol. Rogers said TB cases and deaths have dropped but the hospital still answers a "very definite health need." Hospitals over the state, Rog ers says, are not geared to handle patients with tuhercu losis. If the Kearney hospital were closed, an infected patient could remain at home and spread the disease, he -added. Rogers revealed the state has under Consideration an inten sive tuberculosis treatment pro gram designed to eventually stamp out the ailment. The proposed program, Rog ers explained, involves t reat ment with drugs where the state health department would furnish them and they would be administered by physicians throughout the state. Rural Traffic Traffic on Nebraska highways outside of cities went up five per cent during October, as compared with the same month in 1959. Last year there was bad wea ther during the month which, curtailed travel, the state high way department noted. It said that U.S. 6 north of Gretna has skidded 62 per cent in the number of vehicles us ing it because of the amount of traffic on the completed por tion of the Interstate Highway between there and Omaha. Traffic was up sharply in Oc tober on Nebraska 2 and 92 west of Broken Bow. Nursing Board A committee of state senators has recommended the State Board of Nursing remain as a separate department. The committee, headed by Sen. Otto Liebers of Lincoln, looked into functioning of the board as a separate agency. The question was whether the board might be put under the State Department of Health. About five years ago the Leg islature, because of the growth of the nursing program, made the board a separate depart ment, removing it from the State Deparment of Education. Otto Named State Sen. Norman Otto of Kearney is busy at his new job administrative assistant to Governor-elect Frank Morrison even though Morrison doesn't take office until January. Otto is working out of an of fice in a downtown Lincoln hotel as Morrison prepares for his administration. He has been a state senator since 1955 and previously had been a school superintendent, contractor and farmer. Otto will work not only as Morrison's top aide, but as a liaison between the new gover nor and the Legislature, which will be predominantly Republi can in makeup, although sen ators are elected on non-political tickets. The Kearney man was a well liked member of the Legislature where he was considered to have a good sense of humor and to be a hard worker. Otto was defeated in a bid for lieutenant governor in the May 10 primary by Edward A. Dosek of Lincoln who later withdrew and Otto was ap- Obituary Gussie E.

Ag Projects Progress with Paper Industry By Pearle F. Finigan State Director of Agriculture The initial phases of Nebr aska's projects with the Insti tute of Paper Chemistry at Ap pieton, Wisconsin are well un der way, according to first pro gress reports to be received. The projects are aimed at maintaining and strengthening agriculture s share of the paper industry's starch demands. This industry is the nation's largest non-food user of starch. The Institute has made avail able to Nebraska- results of prior work dealing with use of potato starches in paper, and experiments are now in progress to secure comparable data for wheat and corn starch. "We l feel that tnis project is well un der way and we will continue to push it agressively,'' Dr. Ed ward J. Jones oi the Institute said. Preliminary survey work is being done on another project designed to find more suitable starch modifications for paper. Promising discoveries resulting from this project will be consid ered for a future mill trial phase of the program. Regional Organization A meeting of the Agricultural Products Utilization Association at Des Moines, Iowa last week leads us to hope that Iowa may soon join with Nebraska in re search efforts to promote the industrial utilization of agricul tural products. Iowa legislators attending the meeting indicated that a bill similar to Nebraska's L.B. 722 would be introduced in the next session of the Iowa Legislature. Colorado representatives were of the opinion that representa tives from that state would soon be officially appointed by their governor. Indications are that Nebras ka's program will undergo a close look' by several other state legislatures during their com ing sessions. Dr. George Browning of Iowa State University told the meet ing that some promise for al leviating the farm surplus prob lem lies in new crops. He men tioned that U.S.D.A. scientists are taking a look at over 4,000 new plant varieties at Ames. One of the promising new crops mentioned was castor beans, a crop that Nebraska has taken the lead in establishing irf the midwest.
