Taylor pleaded guilty to the shooting, for which two companions. Ifenry Hawk and Edward Nowicki, both of Omaha, also were sentenced.

PE PER HERE; COST 91 2,985 The new 1,000 gallon per minute pumper ordered bv the city last year arrived In Lincoln Wednesday and was put in the garage to be serviced use by the fire department. This was the last of three new pieces ordered for the fire department, which were purchased under the five year mill levy assessment voted by the people in the spring of 1945 to buy fire equipment. The new pieces include a 100 foot all steel aerial ladder truck for $18,500, replacing a 1918 model; a 1,000 gallon pumper for $12,985, which was put into service July 2, 1946, replacing a 1917 500 gallon pumper; and the latest pumper, for $12,985. Thv? two-tenths mill levy raised $17,348 in 1945-46 and is expected to raise an estimated $17,729 this year. When originally proposed was thought the levy would raise about $20,000 a year.

Safety Director Cobe Venner said he thought this would probably be the last equipment purchased until prices are lowered.

ARMORY fConlinued from and that it was not discussed until after the regular hearing on the balance of the bill had been completed. He said that the plans of the war department call for the allocation of 54 National Guard units to the state and that at first they will be located in 35 towns. Later, he predicted that it would be possible to add groups in towns other than the 35 selected.

Allocated strength of the state guard, he said, would be 5.700 men and he estimated that two years would be required to recruit that size force. He said it would then require four additional yean for training. Produce $1.600.000. McKnight estimated that the 8 per rent of the proposed mill levy he sought to earmark for armories would produce $1,600,000 in the 10 years. He estimated that to the $50,000 the state would allot for armories in each of the 35 townJ the federal government would match It with an additional $50,000.

He admitted that no such legislation has passed congress and is only proposed by army officers. Senator Doyle opposed the amendment, saying, we going to tell the world that we are planning for World war III by arming with money taken away from educational institutions, where we can train our youth for Senator Prichard told his experience in the army with national guard troops as did several other senators. Their experiences were both favorable and unfavorable. can we justify building armories when G.I.’s need the materials to build Prichard asked. Deteriorating Buildings.

Senator Burney pointed out that there is nothing in the measure that says the state have a National Guard. He called attention to the various reports of the state fire marshal showing that the state had been unable to maintain present buildings at institutions. He expressed interest in whether the armory program w'ould increase by 35 the buildings being allowed to deterioriate. Senator Callan, chairman of the budget committee, told of the findings of the committee on its inspection trip. He described the 1,100 persons living in condemned buildings.

He expressed the conviction that the first problem of the state was to improve institution buildings and next provide adequately for the university. The need for buildings at normal schools at the present time was questioned by Callan, who pointed out that at Peru there are 302 students and 46 professors. He said he favored giving all of the money to the institutions and university for the first years. Stretch Levy. stretch this one mill levy over another bed.

Senator Raecke said prwient conditions make it inadvisable to determine policy in connection with teachers colleges. He visioned an increase in enrollment in these colleges when the teaching profession la made more desirable by increased wages for teachers. Senator Carmody suggested that the decision on armories properly should come before the legislature on its mtribi and as a separate bin.

He opposed linking plans for education and war in the biU.

Mr. Truman replied to those who have suggested that Greece is a problem for the United Nations for United States action alone.

In his w'ritten recommendation, Magee stated he does not believe a teacher should gain permanent status unless the individual con- cerned has completed w'ork for a B.S. or its equivalent.

He asserted enactment of such a proposal would result in a moic efficient educational system. Teachers. Discussion at the meeting revolved around the advisability ot making requirements more string- i ent during the present teaching shortage. Superintendent Lefler cited examples of teachers whose work has been outstanding. Board member Robert Van Pcli stated he had thought that a college or university degree was a prerequisite for teaching at the time of his addition as a board member.

He added, however, that he had come to wonder If this wan neces.sarily true in all ca.ses, and debated along with Supt. Lefler the advisiability of severe requirements at this time. Mrs. Roscoe P. Hill reminded.

Magee that any recommendation for a change in policy must be announced one meeting in advance, in written form, and this resulted in memo to the board. AlfalfR Plant To Opon 8oon COLUMBu'i.
