Half, that Ncbraka would cet Jo
in (rjrral aid where it kcnt one
dollar before the program i. com
pleted, I changed my mind."
"The federal aid tax i dii.tributed
proportionately to the wealth of the
county and a a result we Ktt more
toadt for money invested than any
of the big eastern ttr and o far
t haven't found a tingle thing that
would indicate any graft in the good
roadi department of this state."
Improvement Shown.
The committee reached here at
noon after driving over federal aid
reads and county road from Kear
ney. The committee saw federal
aid projects entailing from 25 to 30
feet fills in the never ending hills
of this section and witnessed a
straight, wide, even 25 foot road built
n many instances over virgin soil
o supplant old winding hilly roads
maintained under the old county
system. In littfi'atn county, tliccom
mittee enjoyed a ride on a miniature
figure eight, climbing one hill only
o shoot down into another on coun
ty roads.
George Johnson, state engineer,
was presented with a resolution by
the Uuffalo and Sherman county
boards today asking that a federal
aid road be built on a road which
the county had just finished a blade
grader job.
Welcome at Broken Bow.
Thirty ears of Broken pow and
Custer county citizens met the com
mittee at the Luffalo-Custer county
line and escorted it over federal aid
roads to Brokcu r Bow. Governor
McKelvie, Attorney General Davis
and all riicniberof the committee
?poke. Emerson Purcell, Broken
Bow editor, was toastmaster.
Purcell stated that Custer county
was proud and satisfied with its
federal aid and state roads and as
serted the satisfaction was the re
sult of the fine feeling between J.
A. Vansant, county highway com
missioner, the county board and the
slate engineers.
Loup City Next.
The committee will drive to Loup
City .tomorrow where another open
hearing on road troubles will be
heard at the request of certain Sher
man county citizens.
Friday the committee ' returns to
Lincoln to continue the hearing.
The committee, as well as George
Johnson, state engineer, wants
everyone' with a complaint to reg
ister it either Friday or Saturday at
Lincoln so it can be investigated be
fore adjournment.
At Litchfield 200 citizens stopped
the Committee aud requested the
governor to speak to the school chil
dren. The party was late, and a
speech was impossible.
Cole Refuses to Take
Witness Stand at Trial
.' (Continued From Pace One-)
noon. He failed to establish an alibi
and he brought out some testimony
damaging to his own side. He called
Charles Benson, employe of the Gil
insky Fruit Co., to the stand and,
after some questioning, elicited the
information that he, Cole, had sought
to borrow $5 or $10 from Benson
the. very morning that Harry Hahn
was shot and not more than an hour
before the shooting. This was plain
ly a point for the prosecution. I
He. also interrogated Emily Rouff
ncr.of the police bertillon depart
ment, regarding a photograph of his
right :hand. This photograph showed
a blood blister on the right index
ringer. He offered no testimony as
to how the blister was caused.
- Defendant Appears Worried.
From Nathan Goldman, proprie
tor of the Overland hotel, and Sam
Tretiak, proprietor of the Windsor
hotel, he drew testimony that he was
never drunk or quarrelsome while
he was a guest at these hotels.
Goldman said Cole registered under
the name of "C. P. Evans."
' Cole seemed nervous and worried
during the afternoon. He seemed
to feel that his case was not strong.
However, once, when Judge Leslie
remonstrated at his manner of ques
tioning B. F. Raines, Windsor hotel,
Cole said:
"Haven't I the right to examine
witnesses? The state brought many
witnesses who admitted they know
nothing about the case now being
tried."
But that was as far as he went.
The jury, if it finds him guilty, can
return anv one of these four ver
dicts: First degree murder, electric
chair; first degree murder, life im
prisonment; second degree murder;
manslaughter.
