The two varieties are similar In many their vegetative characteristics Both are six-rowed, smooth bearded, midseason varieties. Their yield records have been about the same.

In mo.st tests in different parts of the state, they have given higher yields than Trebi and also are stiffer strawed However, the seed of the Ezond Variety is blue like Trebi while that of Velvon II is white. The latter is being distributed primarily because it is more resistant to covered and loose smuts than Ezond. The agronomists said that Ezond is recommended for the central and western counties and Velvon II for the same area plus the northeastern counties. Ezond was first increased and distributed by the Box Butte experimental farm at Alliance and IIOU8E MILITARY affairs committee members said the armed forces would be short .100,000 men on July 1, 1947, if the draft is discontinued. They said Inductions have been running about 32,000 a month and if the draft is permitted to expire May 15 the armed services will lose this number.

Gen. Dwight D. Elsenhower told the committee the army will need 1,070,000 officers and men July 1, 1947, but without the draft he estimated only 570.000 would be available. He told the committee that many are enlisting to keep from being Inducted. A GROUP or 26 republican and ilemocratlc congressmen raised a new question regardlni extension of selective service with announcement that they would offer in the house Monday a resolution with these objectives: 1.

Neither of these two democratic leaders expressed any great degree of op- tlsm over chances of the democratic party In the coming election but neither seemed particularly depressed over prospects, or lack of prospects. The convention, they agreed, will be conducted strictly democratic lines. Any action taken, they both said, would be taken with the full knowledge and approval of the convention delegates not at In defending or justifying the absence of the secret ballot in the coming convention, Mr, Schall said, do not believe In the use of the secret ballot. Delegates to this and other state or national conventions have a great responsibility. They are expected to select the most efficient and capable men available and this responsibility de- amnds that the old tactics of secret conniving and steering must be abandoned.

UNITY and confidence cannot be built on disunity and lack of confidence as a foundation. We have a big job to do and we Intend that everything that is done and every action that is taken will be done in a manner that will stand the light of day at any time or In any future situation. "Our job Is to select these candidates to the best of our ability, give them to the voters and then get out, roll up our sleeves and help In every way possible to elect them. And that is just what we intend to Schall who was accompanied from Omaha by State Delegate A. J.

SIOUX CITY, la. (UP). Political expediency is taking precedence over forthrightness In American politics, John B. Quinn, of Lincoln, national vice president of the Young Republican federation, charged Monday in a Lion.s club address. in civic and political life have schooled themselves never to stick out their necks, Quinn said.

the people regard the statements of those In public life as of no importance because of the deceitful practice of not saying what one thinks." a a a THE FORMER assistant secretary of state of Nebra-ska said is indeed that republican lenders of the party primary convention at Omaha Tuesday urging delegates to use the secret ballot in the endorsement of candidates." The delegate.s voluntarily the privilege of representing the people," Quinn said. because they represent the people and not themselves, all should know whom they favor and why, a a a THE DELEGATES cloak themselves in secrecy, they can smile the smile of friendship to all, pat all candidates on the back, and tell all they are getting their support. Should the secret ballot be used the candidate and the people would never know how the delegates voted and they would continue to walk the walk of fame and of expediency because no man would know their thinking. is a far cry from the contribution for good government given by the leaders who build America and her free enterprise. -3 Fuiilkner requests qiieslioiiiiuires returned Have you done your part yet in helping to solve Lincoln's housing shortage problem by sending in your housing survey questionnaire to the chamber of commerce? you do not have any housing worries or if you are npt one of those having trouble finding house or apartment, then you are declared E.
