In addition to one county judge, Lancaster has four district judges.

New Rule on Obsolescence County Will Observe Strictly A new assessing policy dealing with computing obsolescence on 1959 personal property returns will be strictly observed in Lancaster County, Board Chairman Rollin Bailey says. Obsolescence is the depreciation figure which could be entered on the schedules the last two years. A new state ruling provides no greater obsolescence of inventory items will be allowed on the schedules than is shown on the federal income tax return--unless the taxpayer proves to the county that a greater obsolescence actually occurred. Bailey said any obsolescence allowed will be applied in an equal manner to all firms engaged in similar business.

Bailey and Assessor Arthur M. Davis also said all returns will be examined carefully by two new assistant assessors. They are Harold P. Turner, retired Federal Bureau of Investigation agent, and George W. Kcim, retired post office official.

What former Commissioner Del i a called obsolescence accounted for part of the controversy among board members in 1958. Lienemann claimed some businesses depreciated value of their inventories before making out the tax schedules, and did so again in the space permitted on the tax returns. Davis said personal property returns will be mailed within a week. RAILROAD EARNINGS Chicago North Western: January, 1958 Oper rev J16.977.051 $17,109.788 Trans, exp 7,789,059 8.036,559 Mamt.

W. Burbach of Crofton, would allow the State Railway Commission to set up regulations for the testing and sealing of grain moisture measuring devices. Burbach told the committee his measure was drawn up in a hurry and was "far from perfect." He said it would constitute an act of good public relations farmer, and grain dealer. The other bills before the committee Tuesday, all introduced by Sen. a Portsche of Lincoln and all unopposed, were: LB51S--Providine for the filling of short term vacancies on state railway commission.

Report To Brock How Ainsworth Looks at Project Special to The Journal Washington Kep. Larrj Brock (D-Third) of Nebraska has received a four-page, single-spaced report on how the people of the Ainsworth, Neb. area feel about the Ainsworth Project. Brock expects his study oJ the report will provide him with a basis for making his opinion about the controversial irrigation district more explicit. Several weeks ago, the third district Democrat said he "still had to be sold" the desirability of continuing the Ainsworth project.

Brock said the report had come to 3 conclusions: First, that a majority of the area's people favored the project. Second, a majority of the people in Ainsworth thought that land had been included in the project than was feasible to irrigate, and that this had been done to lower per acre cost. And finally, a majority of the younger owner-operators within the Ainsworth area are opposed to the project. Brock said he planned to submit the report and the 79- persons petition opposing Ainsworth Project, to the House and Senate Interior and Appropriations committees.
