Discover Weapons Of Early
Man in Southwest Nebraska

LINCOLN, NEB. - Remains OF
what probably was mans earliest
existence in the Western Hem
isphere have been uncovered In
southwest Nebraska.
DR.. c. Bertrand Schultz, direc-
tor of the University of Nebraska
state museum, said three campsites
of semi-nomadic hunters have been
found.
They are estimated to be between
$1,000 and $4,000 years old.
No skeletal remains of human be-
ings have been located, but there
is evidence of ancient mans occu-
pations at the sites, he said.
Findings include stone and bone
tools and weapons.
Intermingled with the articles
were the bones of 20 types of NAM
mails, birds and reptiles, many of
which seem different from types now
existent in the area.
The campsites were discovered at
the base of a high bluff bordering
Lime creek. about II miles north
west of Cambridge, Neb.

Unusual Spread Of Disease
In Western Europe Reported

LONDON.-The International Red
Cross reported an unprecedented"
spread of tuberculosis in Europe
and declared the increase in We
nereal disease was "simply catas-
trophic."
although e S e n countries,
which have been assisted since the
liberation, have had improved food
supplies, undernourishment for a
number of years has left its mark"
the report said. "The conditions
have meant an unprecedented ex-
tension of tuberculosis.

is simply catastrophe. Syphilis is
increasing everywhere and will
have disastrous effects on future

Children's Aid Drive
Combines q Appeals
Nationwide Campaign Seeks
Funds for Abroad.

NEW YORK. - Combining % ma
tional appeals into a single cam
paign, American Overseas aid and
United Nations Appeal for Children
have launched an extensive nation
wide drive to raise 60 million dol
lars for the relief of distress abroad.
The campaign, which will reach a
climax in February, is designed to
give every individual American an
opportunity to play a personal part
in the overall foreign aid program
of his government" according to
Lee Marshall, national AOA-UNAC
chairman. Directing the drive are
business leaders and Community
Chest campaign managers, who re-
sponded to a voluntary draft"
even though peoples and nations
differ on many policies" Marshall
insists, they can find unity and
agreement in the desperate needs
of stricken children in the postwar
world" Pointing out that about 462
million children throughout the
world do not get enough to eat, he
emphasizes that "many millions of
them are really on the fringes of
starvation, a fact with frightening
implications"
United Nations Appeal for Chill
dren campaigns will be conducted
in about 80 nations, it has been an
nounced. Americas share will be in
cluded in the AOA-ITNAC 'scamDaipn
package" in which virtually all of
the nations major private agencies
for foreign relief and service are
cooperating.
There is no doubt of the needs
abroad, particularly the needs of
children, Marshall advises, adding
that the American people are "spon-
taneously going to the rescue, as
they always do"

makers to the punch by wetting
drouth-parched woodlands while
dry ice-laden planes waited to take

to end devastating forest fires in
Maine.
Gentle rainfall ended the menace
of new fires on the heels of old which
blotted out entire villages, cost 10

Reufher Victory
On AmoIgomotion
Is Now Conceded

Detroit OPA)-President Wal
ter Reuther, Of the United Auto
Workers, won one of the toughest
battles of his labor career last
week when referendum of JAW
members voted down amalgama-
tion with the United Farm Equip
ment Workers.
The Reuther victory was conced-
ed by UFE President Grant Oakes
who complained that eve cannot
accept this result as authentic ex-
preston of the JAW rank-and-file
-" A preliminary tally Of the
voting showed that Reuther's posi-
tion had won 1853 convention votes
with 827 votes favoring merger.
Reuther's success was seen as a
sharp setback to Vice-president r.
]. Thomas, and Secretary-treasur-
er George Adde's who has been
favored by Communists for JAW
president. Reuther supporters con-
tended that the amalgamation pro-
posal was a device by which the
Thomas and Adde's forces could
pick up $50 convention votes to un-
seat Reuther.

Strike Time
Losses Cut

Washington, D. c. QLNS)-
Strikes and lockouts in the first
half Of this year cost only about
one-fourth Of the time lost in the
same period in 1916, the U. S. Bur-
eau Of Labor Statistics says.
The bureau announced that
about 1900 work stoppages-in-
cluding strikes by workers and
lockouts by employers occurred
from January to June. These in
yolved about 100000 employees
and resulted in the loss of between
100000 and 81 1,000,0 900 mandays.
During the same 6 months of
1916, when labor-management con-
troyersies reached a postwar peak,
almost 100000 workers were dir
ectly involved and the idleness ran
to nearly 100000 man-days.
Between January and June, the
bureau said, there were 13 stopp-
ages involving 10000 or more
workers each. The largest were the
telephone workers strike of more
than 100000 workers, and the soft
coal stoppage Of late June involv-
ing more than 100000 miners. In
the same period of 1916, there
were 18 large stoppages involving
10000 or more workers.
