FINE CHANCE FOR YOUR BOY
Scoutmaster Rev. A. V. Hunter An
nounces Opportunity . for Boys
to Go to Camp Gilford.
From Saturday's Daily.
Attention of the Boy Scouts is
directed to the announcement from
Scoutmaster Rev. A. V. Hunter that

Rev. Hunter also announces that
final arrangements have been made
with ' the Omaha council for the
Plattsmouth scouts to go to Camp
Gifford. Here' is the plan: The new
camp wi.th its fine swimming pool
will be open by August 15th. Be
tween then- and the 31st of August
any Plattsmouth scout can go and
stay as long as he wants to by pay
ing $7.50 per week, which includes
board and tent. Every scout must
pay his car fare and take his own
blanket and a few other camp ne

a list of the articles each scout
should take.
In order that parents may under

camp will be run under strict scout
discipline with every, hour of the
day arranged for. There are camp
officials in charge all the time and
the Plattsmouth scouts going there

the Omaha scouts.
This is really a fine chance for
us to afford real enmping experience
under trained camp directors for
our boys. Rev. Hunter announces
he cannot go for any length of time
this season, but if several of Ue
:;coi;ts will plan to go at the same
tinio they can have a fine vacation
and learn many things as we.il. Any
;ueV.ions regarding the camp will
l.e cheerfully answered by Mr. Hun
ter.
The cr.nip is located two milss

The thing for the scouts to do
now is to get together and arrange
their time of going, so that Scout
master Hunter can get places for
them in the camp.

NEBRASKA POTASH SALE
NETS A LARGE AMOUNT
Lincoln, Neb., July 31. Word re
ceived here Thursday night from W.
E. Sharp, president of the Ameri
can Potash company, who is in New
York, gives the result of the sale of
150 carloads of Nebraska potash, or
more than 30,000 tons, with a value
of over $1,500,000. It is the largest
sale of potash ever made in the
United States.
LIKE RICHARDSON'S
, POOL THE BEST
From Thursday's Dally.
Some thirty of the men of the
Burlington machine shops last even
ing with their foreman John Schirk,
who was the' instigator of the pro
ject, with their cars, those who had
none sharing the courtesy of those
who had, went to Omaha last even
ing for a dip in the famous swim
ming resort at Krug Park. They
found the place well patronized and
withal a very pleasant place to
?wim, but in no way surpassing the
famous swimming resort below the
bridge of the Burlingtdn over the
Missouri and known as Richardson's
pool. It is nice that the Richard
son pool is affording so excellent a
place for bathing, and also it is
very commendable that the men are
working in such unity in the shops,
and enjoy their recreation as well
as their work together.

BEGIN ACTIVE
CAMPAIGN TO
REDUCE H. C. L.
LEGISLATIVE & OTHER FORCES
OF THE NATION BEING
BROUGHT TO BEAR.
A MOST WELCOME MOVEMENT
In the Interest of the Wage-Earners
and Common People from the
Atlantic to the Pacific."
Washington, . Aug. 1. Develop
ments today in the efforts of the
government to reduce the high cost
of living were:
1 The house at the request
of President Wilson agreed to
defer its planned five weeks'
recess and consider demands of
railroad employes for increased'
wages.
2 -The senate again discuss
ed increased living costs, but
postponed action on the Myers
resolution proposing reduction
in currency circulation.
3 The committee of three,
appointed yesterday to consider
means of reducing living ex
penses and report to president
and cabinet Monday, began its
work.
4 The national officers of
the Brotherhood of Railway
Conductors conferred with Pres
ident Wilson regarding increas
ed wages and the cost of living.
5 The house interstate com
merce commission reported fa
vorably a resolution directing
the federal trade commission to
investigate the increased price
of shoes.
6 Resolutions and bills de
signed to alleviate conditions of
living were introduced in both
Ifouses.
Members Deeply Impressed
Of the half-dozen important de
velopments, however, the request
if the president that the house foro-
xo its reces3 at least temporarily to
:onsider wage requests of the rail-
oad workers of the country and to
tudy economic condit in?, vas by
far the most unexpected.
Alacrity with which the house
omplied with the request of the
president was taken as an indica
tion of the deep impression maue
jn members oi congress oy pi?as
i'cr relief from all parts of the coun
try.
President Wilson, it was said it
the White House today, had the sub
ject of economic conditions before
lira in a variety of phases. In niak-
n g his request to the house, he said
that he expected important recom
mendations "within a TortnigLt"'
from his advisers.
Shortly before the president sent
'.his request to the house, it was
learned that the conference of cab
inet members and other officials as
sembled yesterday by Attorney Gen
eral Palmer to initiate measures forj
relieving the average .man from the!
prevailing high prices, would re-as-
5emble Tuesday and would have a
new member in the person of Julius
Barnes, director of the United States
grain corporation.
Plan Free Wheat Market
An invitation to Mr. Barnes to
attend was interpreted as mean
ing that serious consideration would
be given to the proposal to sell wheat
at the market price, allowing me
government to absorb the difference
between that and the $2.26 guaran
teed the farmer. Several officers have
expressed the opinion that a free
market for wheat would result in de
clines in the price of fiour, which
would bring down other staples ma
terially. Director General Hihes, Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury Leffingwell
and Chairman Colver of the federal
trade commission, appointea a spec
ial committee by the conference,
will report at the next meeting on
the various suggestions which have
been advanced, especially those to
curb profiteering. The Department
of Justice is understood to ue pit-
pared to put the entire law-enforcing
machinery of the government
back of any campaign that may be
decided upon to stop extortion in the
prices of necessaries.

ARE GETTING MORE GARS NOW
From Thursday's Daily.
This morning Harry Daxter came
up from Aiurray, and with R. .C.
Iiitchnian, of the T. II. Poilock
auto garage, and the I'.cv. Levi W.
Scott, departed for Omaha to secure
three new Ford cars, which they
will drive down for the sales rooms
of the Poilock auto company. For
a good while now new Ford cars
have been difficult to obtain, and
prospective purchasers had a 'long
wait ahead of them. But Just now
they are becoming more plentiful as
the demand eases off with the ad
vance of the season, and Mr. I'olloe't
is therefore able to promise early de-'livi-rle.s
in ears ordered now.
FOUR PROMINENT 0MAHANS
INJURED IN AUTO ACCIDENT
From Friday's lafly.
Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Kranz, Miss
Alice Deione and John Hopkins,
prominent Oniahans, were' all se
verely bruised and cut at 9 o'clock
last night when Kranz' car. in which
they were riding, collided with an
other car at 42nd and Harney streets
and turned turtle. The occupants
of the second car were unhurt.
Miss Deione suffered a broken
thumb and severe bruises. The oth
er three occupants of the Kranz
car were bruised and cut. All the
injured were taken to the University
of Nebraska hospital a block away
and later to their homes.
A Great Remedy.
The merits of Chamberlain's Colic
and Diarrhoea Remedy are well
known and appreciated, but there is
occasionally a man who had no ac
quaintance with them and should
read the following by F. II. Dear,
a hotel man at Dupuyer, Mont.
"Four years ago I used Chamber
lain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy
with such wonderful results that I
have since recommended it to my
friends."

CONDITION OF MICHAEL
PRICE IS STILL SERIOUS
From Saturday's J-ally.
Michael Price, who was taken to
the St. Joseph hospital in Omaha
yesterday for treatment, and where
it was expected an operation would
relieve his trouble, remains in a
very serious condition and it has no!
as yet been determined whether an
operation will be had or not. The
man is suffering greatly and tin
relatives have gone to Omaha today
for the purpose of consulting with
the specialist, as they do not intend
to leave anything undone that will
aid in his recovery. It is hoped that
under continued hospital care his
condition may show early improvement.
