Under the name of the Douglas County Bank of Omaha, the reorganized Farmers' and Merchants Bank of Benson has reopened for business. Anhouncement of the reopening was made by Clement L. Waldron, president, following approval by the state banking department of details of the reorganization plan. Waldron said persons who had deposits in the old bank may get 30 percent of their deposits in cash or open an account in the new bank for the same amount. About 45,000 head of sheep and lambs remain to be marketed in the Scottsbluff section, A. E. Anderson, state and federal statistician, announced recently. The total movement of sheep and lambs from that territory since January 1 is 1,462 cars as compared with 1,415 cars in the same period in 1931 and 1,616 cars two years ago. Total shipments since the first of January will probably exceed the heavy run two years ago, when the remaining stock is moved, Mr. Anderson believes. The Nebraska state capitol at Lincoln has been voted the third "most beautiful building" by 50 prominent American architects, according to the United States Daily. First place was given, with 17 votes, to the Lincoln Memorial in Washington and second place, 14 votes, to the Empire State building in New York. The Nebraska building got 13 votes, The J. P. Morgan library in New York was voted fourth most beautiful, the Scottish Rite temple in Washington fifth and the St. Thomas church in New York, sixth.

The warning was issued after 58 head of aged ewes sold for ten cents each. When the price reached the ten cent level, one commission house refused to accept carload of aged ewes. The city of Lincoln, will sustain a loss of $3,000 as a result of the removal of the "H street" railroad, over which materials have been moved to the state capitol grounds, it was estimated.
