William |. Votaw, manager of the
Omaha air mail station, had nothing
but good words TO say for the serv-
ice Of the year, pronouncing this d.
vision the most successful of the
transcontinental route.
Flying conditions this winter have
been practically ideal on this di-
vision" Mr.. Votaw said, "and regular

known, but some farmers are known
to have joined both. The farm bu-
reau is generally accepted as con-
servative farm body which is trying
to stay out of politics, and improve
agricultural conditions by co-opera-
ton, while the non-partisan league
goes farther and depends on politi-
cal action to achieve its end Of pub
lie ownership of markets, packing
houses, credit and other utilities and
resources. While these contrasted
aims seem contradictory, there are
some farmers that are unwilling to
put all their eggs in one basket and
who support both organizations.
Youngs Joins Both Bodies.
Such a man is Elmer Youngs of
Lexington. president of the Ne
braska Farm Bureau federation, and
also a member of the nonpartisan
league. Mr.. Youngs PROCESSES ignor-
ance of the reasons for the with
drawal of the nonpartisan organizers
and is unable to say whether it will
be permanent or temporary.
when | was attending the mass
meeting OF the farm bureau in Grand
Island" he said. Il was tapped on
the shoulder by man who asked
me to come up to the hotel. I went
up to a room and found Mr.. Town
ley. He asked me all about the farm
bureau movement and | told him
what a good thing it was. Then he
said that the leaguers were not fight
ing the farm bureau. and would never
try to organize in the same counties
at the same time"
1t was shortly after this that the
league organizers emigrated to Kan
sas, where they are said to be en-
rollingSnembers at rapid rate, due
to dissatisfaction of the farmers with
grain prices and with the administra-
ton of Governor Henry ]. Allen.
Opposed to Kansas Governor.
This antagonism to the state ad-
ministration of Kansas may iurn-
ish the real reason for the concen-
tration of the nonpartisan drive
there. Organized labor as we'll as
the leaguers are opposed to Gov
ernor Allen. Without the labor
vote nothing could be achieved po-
litically by the lcaguers. The indus
trial court set up by Governor Allen
there is being fought bitterly by
the union men and they are eager to
cooperate with the farmers at the
polls.
Sentiment of farmers from all over
the state who met in Lincoln showed,
a tolerance and even a friendliness
for the adm 'nistration of Governor
McKelvie. The feeling was apparent
that any legislation vitality needed
BY agriculture would obtain favor
able consideration at the capital,
With the spirit of antagonism and
suspicion absent from Nebraska it
is probable that conditions for
building up farmer-labor party in
Kansas appeared 50 much more
favorable that the closing down of
active organization in Grand Island
was decided on. y

The increase is not with any one

brooms.. but concerted effort on
the part of all to lay by money"

ture of money is past" Paul W
Kuhns. president of the Conserva-
tive Savings and Loan association,
said People are beginning to ac-
knowledge that they can save and
have and they have started the new
year by opening accounts for saw
ings."
In the past week this institution

braska Savings & Loan association.
reported gain of $l50000 in the
past six months. "The increase is
very satisfactory. The future looks
bright. 1t is the desire to own their
own homes which is prompting
people to save" he said.
New accounts at the Occidental
Loan & Savings association are larg-
er than ever. according to President
John F. Black. While there has
been a gain among the Omaha men,
bers he has not received reports
from out-state branch Offices. He
predicts that the spirit Of thrift will
be nationwide. Payments made to
the association now total SO, 500, 600.
which Mr.. Black says will be ma
terially increased in few weeks.
Other building and loan assoeia-.
tons reported increases in new ac-
counts.
Frank Boyd, assistant cashier of
the Omaha National bank, reported
gains in the saving department and
credited it to. "a tendency to more
conservative use of mo"ev." Saw

Season Of Saving.
Albert L. Schantz, president OF
the State Bank OF Omaha, declared

on the part of all to be more careful
in their buying and use of money"
I'VE are getting back to normal"
says H. o. Eastman, vice president
of the Corn Exchange National
bank, "and people are not buying as
much as they were a few weeks
ago. When people are not buying
they save"
Both Mr.. Schantz and Mr.. East
man declared the increases in their
savings deposits were gratifying.
