Nebraska remained 25 percent
below surrounding states in av
erage cost per person for Stale
Government in the period of 1947
1948. The seven state region embrac
ing Nebraska increased taxes for
State Government 22 percent in
'47-48 period. Nebraska increased
32.2 percent in the same period.
Despite its greater increase Ne
braska remained behind the aver
age. The upward trend was due
chiefly to increased prices and
wages. Business activity likewise
accelerated and more people were
doing business at greater volume
than ever before in the states his
tory. Nebraska experienced its highest
income in history in 1947, run
ning more than one and a half
billion dollars net. All six states
bordering Nebraska have a sales
tax and four of them have an in
come tax. Nebraska has neither.
These facts are the probable rea
sons why Nebraska's per capita
cost of State Government has
lagged behind that of its neigh
bors. "Who's Who" Lists

concert presented Tuesday night

of Orchesis, Pre-Orchesis and the
Men's Dancing group participated

servitude from all his subjects.
Dissenters were cast into a
furnace of fire: they were then
miraculously saved, moving Ne
buchadnezzar and his council to
praise God.

Watcr Flow Observed
From the soil sample, the rate
at which water flows through the
material can be observed. The
machine is valuable for determ
ining the amount of large aggre
gates in the soil which in turn
determines the lands drainage
capabilities. It also is important
in measuring the amount of ero
sion that has taken place on land
by observing the depth of the top
soil.
Dr. Hoy P. Ivlatelski. assistant
professor of agronomy, said the
procedure oiicis big possibilities
for the Muriy of soil in different
regions. He said lie is looking
forward to the time when Ne
