Nebraska Wheat Display Draws Crowds in German Fair
Thirty tons of Nebraska wheat balanced on a German Volkswagen bus highlighted an exhibit at the Bremen fair in Germany. Donated by the Nebraska Wheat Growers Association, the display aimed to showcase U S wheat quality to Germans and stressed two way trade. George Gerdes, NWGA president, noted more than a half million viewed the exhibit and said it drew praise from bakers and millers. The same exhibit toured Munich with Great Plains Wheat and the U S Foreign Agricultural Service.

Hoffa Come To State Warns Of Law Enforcement Strain
Senator Carl Curtis warned at a Chamber of Commerce session that if Jimmy Hoffa succeeded in organizing workers Nebraska law enforcement would be stretched. He said the State Safety Patrol would confront mobs led by named figures like Johnny Dio and that there would not be enough sheriffs to halt a crime wave. Curtis, on the Senate Labor Rackets Committee, said Hoffa seeks to rule Americans and would control transportation and food industries.
