Life Preserver Requirement To Be Enforced T jncoln The first sizable rush of Nebraska mariners to the waters brought a stern warn ing from Game Commission Di rector M. O. Steen. "We will strictly enforce all parts of the boating law, particu larly in regard to the carrying of life-saving devices on board. "Ignorance of the law is no ex cuse. It is not so much the law as it is regard for your passengers that requires you to equip each one of them with a Coast unara- atraroved life belt, preserver, or some other device." This law holds not only for motorboats, but also for any ves sels. Steen continued, be they rowboats, air boats, or other craft. Each person on board must have at hand some cur rently approved U. S. Coast uuaia me pi esei vci . Children under 12 must wear life rjreservers at all times while aboard motorboats, Steen added The director again warned boaters to affix 1961 symbols to their boats before putting them in the water.

Call Your News And Social Items to 2141 LINCOLN Information as to how the new Emergency Feed Grain Legislation will apply in Nebraska should be available in about three weeks, according to thp state Agricultural Stabili zation and Conservation .office here. Therefore farmers are urged to withhold questions until specific details of the program have been established at the county and state levels, accord ing tn Wilfred Askew. State ASC office manager. In fact, work nn the new program will be speeded up if farmers refrain from contacting local a&o oi ices at this time. County ASC committees over the state now are gathering in formation which will be used to determine the basis of payments to farmers on land taken out of production of corn or grain sor ghum for grain fodder or silage. Under the new program, farmers who wish to participate must divert at least 20 per cent of their base acreage of corn and grain sorghum to soil-conserving uses. Cooperators also may divert land in excess of 20 tv.o novmpnt on land diverted . f-m nrnriiintion of corn and grain sorghum will be based on the individual iarm in to other farms in the commun ity and county. Basis of the actual payment will be county average yields for corn and grain sorgnum, uie price support for corn and grain sorghum in the county, and the productivity of tne sou uu farm- M,f Prpsent indications are that the national average corn sup port price will be 14 cents above a year ago and grain sorghum will be 41 cents a hundred pounds above a year ago. The farmer who does not par ticipate in the program will not be eligible for price bu'- corn, grain sorghums, oats, bar ley or rye of the 1961 crop. 50 Y2 24 2 44 V'2 30 Vz 43 V'2 31 'a 40 12 34 Vz 38 37 37 38 37 38 3412 40' '2 31V2 43 Vz 18 57 rr nla A 11 M' Hi team series, uass nai Ut foam ffUmP ; Jane's A & W 111 L V L4 1 . .

Journal Want Ads i'ay 26 March Traffic Deaths Twenty-six persons died as a rpsnit nf traffic accidents In Ne braska during March. This figure brought Nebraska's traffic fleam toll for the year to 62, compared with 44 or the same period last year. Twelve deaths were re corded during March of last year. Col. C. J. Sanders, Nebraska Safety Patrol, in commenting on the March and 1961 Increase in traffic deaths, stated that this lnnrPASB was evidence of the twenty per cent increase in traffic this year over last year and an "open" winter with bet ter weather and road conauions. hp added. "Too. this increase over last year is not too far out of line in that we experienced 70 deaths for the same pepriod in 1951, 71 In 1954, 68 in 1955, 76 in 1956, 60 in 1958 and 59 In 1959. And today we have more motor vehicle registrations and drivers than we have had be fore." "Of course, any traffic death is one too many es p e c 1 a 1 1 y when they are due to violations and carelessness of the driver. If Nebraska is to have a sucess ful traffic-wise year, motorists are polns to have to observe all traffic laws and make safe driv ing a moral responsibility," Col. Sanders said. The Safety Patrol report show ed that 16 of the March total were the result of two-car acci dent s, 8 deaths were in one-car accidents, 1 was a pedestrian, and 1 was a farm tractor driver. Seventeen of the March traf fic rionths occurred on state highways, 5 were on county roads, and 4 were on city sireeis. Daytime accidents during March accounted for 13 deaths and 13 were the result of night time accidents. Police Court Stanley Black.

All other weights and grades of cat tle, hogs and sheep to be based on relative merits. We advise our members to hold for the prices deter mined by the county meat bargaining committees, and suggest that non-members support our efforts. NFO holding actions are nothing more than farmers determining a price for their production and holding for that price until the pres ent marketing system can no t fulfill its needs from the production going to the markets. There is usually only a five to seven day meat supply in storage. We, as farmers, have many times tried to deter mine whether to sell this Monday or next Monday be cause of price, and many times we have gotten busy and put off selling for a week or two. Let's all try to put off selling at one time and see what happens. Mr. Farmer Are you will ing to continue to go to the market place and say "what will you give me?" or are you going to support the NFO test holding action and establish your bargaining power so you can price your products as everyone else does?
