Keith Xevillc, aged 3.1, the youngest gover nor Nebraska ever hud, was inaugu rated here today with brief and sim ple ceremonies after John II. More head, retiring governor, had delivered his finul message. In his inaugural speech here today Governor Neville declared the state prohibition (intendment recently en acted was not a political issue, but a tinny for tlie people to decide, irre spective of part'- affiliation. Governor Neville advocated the fol lowing legislation to make the prohi bition nmendment recently adopted, efficient : 1 Creation of u public welfare de-' partmeiit to assist in prosecution; a legal department to conduct the pros-! editions; the sale of intoxicating li- quors by drug stores should be, strictly regulated; the shipment into! the state of beverages containing' harmful ingredients of inferior qual-j ity should be prohibited; drinking' clubs should be prohibited; the pen-' alty for the sale of liquors in busi-; ncss places should fall upon the land lord; drastic penalties to discourage bootlegging; common rnrriers should file monthly reports of liquor deliv-! ercd; municipalities should be given power to make the law effective; plants manufacturing beverages; should be regulated and a certain ap-! propi intiou should be made to enforce the prohibition nmendment. j The governor also made a plea for the establishment of a state publicity bureau "so that other people outside j of the state might learn about Ne braska." 1 1' st National Bank M EDFORD OREGON WJ T OF iT "A Ti WASHINGTON, Jan. 4. The fed eral reserve board's official bulle tin this month discloses that amend ments to the bank law, governing re serves recently transmitted to con gress and now under consideration by the committee, are intended to aid in controlling the great gold flow Into tho country and aro connected with the board's recent warning against bank investments in foreign war obli gations, Issued 'November 28. "It was suggested," says the bul letin, "that the Inflow of gold Into the United States need not be con sidered a menace to the well-being of the community, provided that satis factory provision was made for the control of Its movement and accumu lation. Tho question raised is how to obtain and exercise sufficient au thority in connection with such con trol." This, as is now suggested by the board, can be accomplished by wiping out fictitious reserves carried in the form of reserve balances, vesting the board Itself with power to Increase, when necessary, the percentage -of member bank reserves carried with reserve banks and re-arranging the reserve requirements of the country so as to place all reserve funds, ex cept needed till money, in the hands of the roserve banks themselves. 10 START . elk mmm Hugh Mitchell, superintendent of hatcheries for Oregon for the United States bureau of hatcheries, arrived in Medford Thursday and leaves Fri day for the Klk creek hatchery, where he will start operations for the construction of the enlarged hatch ery. He said : "Koderick Maeleay, owner of the hatchery ground, lias given us an in definite lease lor us long us wc wnnt at a nominal rental for ns much ground ns wc need, and contract will be let at once for construction. The new hatchery will more than quad ruple the eupucity of the hatchery and work will be finished in time for the coming steelhead season. A large central building, well lighted, will biy erected, and several large ponds for feeding constructed." ENDORSEMENT PUT OFF (Continued From Page One.) "My construction is that it does nothing more than merely approve ac tion of the United States in sending the note requesting that terms of peace be submitted. It does not ask us to approve specifically the terms of the note nor of its contents." it- st ir it i? ? t t t t y t t Y Y Y Y t it it T Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y V Y Y Y Y it it t Y Y Y I?

A dozen years ago POSTUM drinkers were compara tively few. Today, this table drink is served on rail way trains, on ocean steamers, at leading hotels and restaurants, and millions use POSTUM instead of coffee at home. POSTUM has become popular because it is popular to be healthy. "There's a Reason" Y Y Y Y Y Y Y t Y Y Y Y Y Y Y t Y Y Y Y Y Y Y t Y Y I I Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y t t Y Y r
