Problem Of Germany and Cold War Reflections
The piece discusses instability in Konrad Adenauer's government and warns against a resurgent Germany. It cites historical Nazi rise with 20 percent support, Russia's stance to prevent Germany from becoming a global menace, and William L. Shirer's view that Khrushchev seeks to keep Berlin tensions alive while the U.S. should focus on economic strength and internal power. It concludes that a strong Germany is unlikely to appeal to Europeans and urges caution.

Tax stance shapes Nebraska governor race as candidates oppose broader base
Republican Fred Seaton announces candidacy for Governor and opposes a state sales or income tax. Democrat Frank Morrison hints at reelection and likewise opposes broadening the tax base unless no other solution exists. With both tied to the issue early, any expansion would depend on the Legislature, not the governor. Fees for the broadened base may be reassured for now.

Nebraska tourism promotion faces a $6 million capital need with annual about $100000 for promotion, says Mel Steen of the Game Commission.
