Mr. and Mrs. Fred Meisinger LAST! Model DA-ll-61 00 With Trade I " l j II C Ynr,nP Continued from Page One bundance is widely shared by ordinary American citizens, the peoples of the Soviet Union must content themselves with their government's distant pro mises of future prosperity. For the present, Soviet achievements in space cast a euphoric shadow over the country's acknowledged shortages of food, clothes and housing, and the astonishing growth of Soviet industry pro vides little satisfaction for the demands of everyday Soviet consumers. With or without material wealth, the hallmark of Amer ican society and the proudest heritage of its people is its free institutions. To the American worker free dom has come to mean the right to organize, the right of collec tive bargaining with an employ er, the right to engage In con certed action for better wages and working conditions, and the right of grievance procedures. On the other hand, it assumes that he will exercise his rights responsibly in the best interests of the whole society. The goals of the American worker in the years ahead will be the improvement of his high standard of living and the pre servation of his free Institutions. He knows that these can best be accomplished in a world at peace. As we justifiably applaud our achievements, so we must con front our shortcomings. On this Labor Day, more than 5 million men and women are out of work. Well over half the major indus trial areas in the country are experiencing substantial unem ployment. Many Industries are operating at below capacity levels. Steel output is only about 67 per cent of capacity. With these insufficient levels of production, a high rate of un employment is inexcusable. The story of unemployment is not one of "labor surplus," as the jobless have often been called. Rather, it is a story of wasted human and material resources. This Administration is not satisfied with the present un employment situation. We be lieve that the unemployed can be returned to work in a vigor ous and expanding economy As President Kennedy said recently, "I have no intention of 'learn ing to live with' prolonged and severe unemployment, with all that it means in human misery and economic waste." In these critical times, Amer ican labor faces new challenges on the economic front. The need for new high levels of produc tion will entail continuing tech nological progress. I am confident that both free labor and free management will respond with renewed purpose to their responsibilities. They will need to develop more enlightened relations with one another on a continuing basis. They will need to accommo date their own interests to the overriding interest of the public welfare. They must continue to demon strate their ability to reconcile separate viewpoints into com mon goals and common actions. thus giving living testimony to our proud claim that we come nearest of any nation to being a classless society. Without relinquishing its right to strike, labor, in cooperation with management, must build new mechanisms in insure the peaceful solutions of their diff erences. When each side accepts the rights of the other, and when both sides accept the rights of the general public, then indust rial peace will prevail. As we take stock of ourselves on this Labor Day, let all work ing Americans whether in in dustry or trade, in large firms or small shops, on the assembly line or in an office, in govern ment or in education rededi cate themselves to their consti tutional commitments to pro mote the common defense and safeguard the general welfare. of Murray called at the Charles Bates home Sunday.

SURPRISE MEETING Pittsburg A 30-year-old bar tender, John Tambellini, was telling a customer he hadn't seen his father in ten years since he left Italy. He casually pointed to another customer remarking that he looked like his father. Seconds later he leaped over the bar shouting: "My gosh, it is my father." - 1 ." , A1 CRUISIN ON THE CREEK Tye Finney and Larry Beavers, both 13, wave from their home made boat as they get ready to go back down Four Mile Creek to their campsite northwest of Camping Out Good Way To End Vacation Camping out is a good way to end a summer's vacation, even though the camp-out is too short. Tye, 13, and Todd, 10, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Clark Finney of Plattsmouth; their father and Larry Beavers, 13, son of Maj. and Mrs. Luke Beavers of Offutt Air Force Base spent several days and nights the past week camping out on Four Mile Creek northwest of here. Clark had to work days but spent nights with the boys who had a ball at fishing, swimming, trapping (in season) and cook ing and sleeping out. Friday when Mrs. Finney went out to see if there were anything she could bring them, Tye and Larry chorused, "A big mess of raw vegetables!" "And cut some holes In them," Larry added. The boys haven t cracked under the pressure of outdoor living. They're just partial to shishkabob. Clark Finney and his boys built the 13-foot boat in which the boys reach their camp site from a road near here. It started out as a sort of kayak, got changed in plan along the way and ended up as a real treat for the boys who bought a used outboard motor for it. They christened it an apt name for its first journeys along the Four Mile's often obstruct ed way, "Old Hardnose." There was only one thing wrong with the whole adventure it was going to be awfully hard to end it all and go to school come Tuesday. Leaf Spot Hits Corn Fields in SE Nebraska LINCOLN Many low-lying corn fields In southeastern Ne braska have been hit by leaf damage if warm, humid weather blight which could cause serious conditions prevail during the next few weeks. "Yields may be reduced 25-50 per cent on early-infected bot tom land fields," according to Dr. John Weihing, University of Nebraska Extension plant path ologist. "Dry weather in the next few weeks would stop develop ment of the disease." "Usually it Is too dry for leaf blight of corn to develop in Ne braska, but it has occurred the past three years," Dr. Weihing asserted. "Epidemics of the dis ease usually occur in the western states. "Leaf blight (helmlnthospor ium) causes dead areas that are oblong in shape and parallel with the leaf blade. The spots may spread until the entire leaf is killed. In advanced stages, the entire plant may die. "Growing resistant varieties of hybrid corn is the principle means of control," Dr. Weihing reports. "Fungicide applications for control of this disease would cost too much and would be dif ficult to apply at this time. Crop rotation and complete coverage of crop residue also will assist in controlling the disease." Getting Your By James E. Boyd Dr. of Veterinary Medicine The new born puppy is pro tected against many diseases through antibiotics in the mo ther's milk. This provides pro tection until 6-7 weeks of age. At this time the puppy is us ually moved to a new home and the possibilty of exposure to disease is greatly increased. Therefore the immunizations should be started at 6-7 weeks of age. The immunizations a puppy should have will depend upon the diseases prevalent in the community. Motorists: You Must Protect Kids "Motorists it's your responsi bility to keep the school children safe in traffic!" In these words, Col. C. J. Sand ers, Nebraska Safety Patrol today reminded motorists that September Is the back-to-school month and that the nearly 1,300 school buses in Nebraska will be on the roads again. Last year two school children were struck and killed as they stepped off of school buses. To prevent similar tragedies from happening again this school year, Col. Sanders reminded motorists that the state law pro vides for a reduction of speed to 25 miles per hour upon the flash ing signal of the school bus Indi cating an intention to stop and for all motorists to stop and re main stopped, regardless of di rection of travel while the school bus, with side arm extended, is loading or unloading and until the bus resumes motion or until the motorist is signalled to pro ceed by the bus driver. This rule does not apply to motorists approaching from the front on a divided four-lane high way. Col. Sanders concluded, "Par ents also have the responsibility in the safety of their children and should assist the school in teaching their children to obey all the school bus safety rules and to look both ways before crossing the street or road when going to or coming from the school bus."

The boys and Tye's brother, Todd, 10, and father Clark Finney ushered summer's vacation out with a flourish on a camping expedition. Puppy's Shots In this area Canine Distem per and Canine Hepatitis are of frequent occurrence in unvac cinated dogs. Therefore immun izations are of course required by law and are necessary for the protection of human health, as well as the animal's health. Though a pet is confined to the yard, it may be exposed to the bite of rabid rodents, skunks, bats or other wild life; therefore a Rabies immuniza tion is still necessary. Rabies immunizations are given at 3-4 months of age and yearly thereafter.
