Drttcjcdow wants to be chairman of this committee and until he began to "knife" Foster for appoiutmcnt as a member, it looked as though he would get the thakmanship which he has held for two sessions, without trouble.

A minor insurrection broke out in the Nebraska state ' senate on the second day's session of the 40th legislative ' session over the" matter of employes. .'' : '.' ., The storm broke around the head of Senator Perry Reed of Hender son, who has been entrustei withrthe sole responsibility of hiring trh- ployes tor the state senate. ; Reed's appointment-as the com mittee on employes - for the, state senate was announced at the open ing of the session Wednesday" morn ing and was immediately approved by the other members.-"., v. , ' Abolish Easy Jobs. " Then Senator Reed announced that the 'committee on employes' would attempt to abolish some of the easy jobs and . to save as much money for the state as-possible. He said , that one clerical position and three or four custodial positions could just as well be dispensed with and their duties transferred to other employes of the senate. Mr. Reed said there would be no attempt to reduce the stenographic force, inasmuch as a majority of the members had a voluminous corre spondence with their constituency and every effort would be made to see that it was handled expeditious ly. He thought, however, that no senator should use the time of stenographers to type priyate letters not connected- with the state's busi ness. : . . y :r - .. . -Places :Were Filled., i; Senator ReeJ then followed ; his announcement up by stating that all of the positions, with the exception of a clerical job and several steno graphic places,' had been filled: and no more employes would be needed.
