Nebraska Budget Stands Firm on Debt-Free History
A correspondent notes Nebraska's finances show no bond debt with a surplus in treasury. The state funded a $10 million capitol by annual tax levies, pays road construction via 4 cent per gallon gasoline tax and license fees, and relies on federal aid. Unemployment relief strains exist but Nebraska has avoided treasury draw until possible $2 million FERA share, while general property tax funds government with no income or sales tax.

Preliminary studies show hog income rising due to the 1933 34 emergency hog buying and the 1934 corn hog production program.

Hog prices are expected to stay high, and corn hog farmers may gain by the 1935 program offered by the Agricultural Adjustment Administration.
