(Special) Reports from Geneva, where disarmament proposals are be' ing discussed with Russia, in dicate that this nation is going to back down even more In its ; demands for proper safeguards. Certainly we should have ' learned by now that the RuS' slans will only live up to those i agreements they want to honor. Their nuclear bomb tests were being prepared all during the time their delegates were talk ing disarmament in Geneva In 1961; this gives clear Indication of how much faith they place in such talks. Originally the U.S. position was that there would have to be at least 20 on-site inspections in Russia each year. Then our delegates were told that 12 to 20 would be enough. The Presi dent then sak, that there should be "some." That was last sum mer. Now the number has been placed at 8. But news dispatch es from Geneva say 7 Inspec tions have been proposed by the U.S. delegate and that he may go as low as 5. This Is a far cry from the minimum of 20 which we originally Insisted on. Has Russia also made conces sions? They moved from none to 2 or 3. At the same time we dropped from at least 20 down to 7, or maybe even to 5. If this Is the way we are going to give ground to the Russians, we might as well let them write the treaty and send It over here for signatures. This is Just one more reason why so many Americans dis trust or express dismay over our foreign relations. J. 6. Murphy and Jim Walker, Auctioneers M. J. Cilliam, Sale Mgr. Auction handled by J. B.

Population of these four in 1900 was 404, 695, but estimated population figures for the past two years Indicate that the Second Dis trict will have a population ap proaching 600,000 by 1970. In the past two years, the Sec ond District counties have shown sizable Increases in esti mated population, based on fi gures from the Bureau of Busi ness Research, College of Busi ness Administration, Univerity of Nebraska. Here are the 1960 and 1962 figures: Cass from 17, 821 to 18,486; Douglas from 343.490 to 371,342; Sarpy from 31,281 to 38,548; Washington from 12,103 to 12,573. Total went from 404,695 to 440,949. These are Impressive figures, especially since 52 of Nebraska's 93 counties are estimated to have lost population from I960 to 1962. At this writing, both the House of Representatives and the Senate are at their full strength. In the House, there are 258 Democrats and 177 Re-i publicans.
