Charles M. Schwab, the steel king
representing capital declared he
would "go the limit" to carry out
the recommendations of the national
employment conference.
James Couzens, millionaire mayor
of Detroit, representing the public,
described the system of unemploy
ment relief which is proving a great
success in that city. The conference
may discuss such a system.
Frank Morrison, secretary of the
American Federation of Labor, said
labor would give its best efforts to
mitigate unemployment thru the
conference altho labor's representa
tives are in a minority among the
delegates and the organized workers
will proceed very cautiously to
avoid endorseing any plan injurious
to the trade unions.
. The interview follows:
Charles Schwab today promised on
behalf of himself and American man
facturers generally to "go the limit"
in making President Harding's un
employment conference a success in
creating work for .the millions of
men now idle.
Schab declared in an exclusive in
terview that he was in the confer
encs "with his whole soul."
Determined to Solve Problem
"I am approaching the great prob
lem and I know all American em
ployers are with confidence and
whole souled determination to solve
it." said Schwab. "Then the confer
ence has formulated its recommenda
tions I can promise you it will go
the limit in making them effective
for reduction of unemployment."
Detroit has a system of relief
which is taking much of the distress
out of the city's unemployment sit

uation, James Couzens, its multimil
lionaire mayor stated today.
Couzens . is one of the conferees
summoned by President Harding to
assist in finding a solution to the
national unemployment problem.
The Detroit system is one of di
rect aid from the municipal treas
ury and while $1,500,000 has been
devoted to relief during the last ten
months, the cost to the small tax
payer is hardly noticeable, Couzens
said.
"We have no bread and soup
lines," Couzens said. "Families are
not evicted because of their inability
to pay rent.
"We use the money for food, shoes
clothing and rent. In other words we
see to it that the Jobless are provided
with the necessities of life.
"But in order to keep a flood of
needy from other cities from over
whelming us we have a rigid rule
against giving relief to people who
arrived in Detroit . after January 1
of this year.'
Between 10,000 and 15,000 fam
ilies representing -approximately 75,
000 individuals are being helped,
Couzens said.
Labor to Fight Opposition
Organized labor, while desiring to
co-operate to the fullest extent in
the unemployment conference, wlllj
blows at American labor standards,
American federation of labor leaders
said here today.
"Labor wants to co-operate in
every wax with the national unem
ployment conference, but it will
fight any moves to break down the
standard for which it has fought for
many years," said Frank Morrison,
secretary of the America!) Federation
of Labor.
"There must not be moves to force
labor to accept big cuts in-wages or
to cause any abandonment of such
fundamental principles as collective
bargaining and the eight hour day.
Labor must not be made the goat.
The conference must not be used to
advance the open shop plan and we
understand that is not the purpose.",

down two years ago and since which
time' lie has been gradually failing
in health until it was found neces
sary to have him taken to a hos
pital for treatment and he has since
been growing weaker until his death
this morning.
To mourn his loss he leaves a wife
and one son. John L. Cutwright, of
Fremont, Nebraska.
Mr. Cutwright was nearing his
reventieth year and has led a very
active life during his lifetime. He
was born at Peoria, Illinois, and
there received bis education and was
a law student for a number of years
and was admitted to the bar in that
city. In the latter part of the sev
enties he decided to seek his fortune
in the west and came to Council
Bluffs, Iowa, where he resided for a
short time and then moved to Glen
wocd, where he was employed as a
school teacher for a short time. It
was while at Glenwood that he be
came acquainted with C. W. Sher
man, then publishing a paper in that
city, and from the friendship sprang
a desire on the part of Mr. Cut
wright to learn more of the journal
istic work and he accordingly en
gaged in work as a printer at the
case for a period of a few years un
til the lure of the mining excite
ment at Leadville. Colorado, called
him there to mingle with the fortune
seekers.
In the year 1881 he returned to
Omaha and wa3 employed as a print
er on the Republican, then one of
the leading papers of the state me
tropolis. In the fall of 1881 he-came
to Plattsmouth where his former as
sociate, C. W. Sherman, had estab
lished the Plattsmouth Journal, and
Mr. Curtwright assumed the city edi
torship of the paper and commenced
a career as a news writer and editor
that has won him recognition as one
of the leaders of the press in the
state.
His stay here was marked by a
very able and aggressive type of
journalism and at one time he was
attacked and wounded by a promt
ment residence of Unlonville, Mis
souri, who resented an article appear
ing in his paper,, and his style of
newspaper work was such as to at
tract the attention of the press of
the state. During xhis five years of
city editorship in Plattsmouth he was
also married.
In -1886 Mr. Cutwright departed
for Chadron, Nebraska, where he
accented a position in the U. S. land
office under A. W. Crite3 and con
tinued there until the year 1889,
when he came to Lincoln and took
the position of city editor of the Call
of that city. Later he was for some
time private secretary to William J
Bryan, then serving in congress, and
whom he was later to oppose as an
able political foe in Nebraska state
politics. In the campaign of 1896,
when Bryan headed the great silver
movement, Mr. Cutwright accom
panied the Commoner on his tour
over the United States, representing
the Associated Press, making a thor
ough and complete report of the
brilliant tour. At the close of the
campaign he took a trip through the
south and was on the reportorial
staff of the Galveston (Texas) News
for some time.
In the last few years he has re
sided for the greater part of the time
in Lincoln, being first with the Ne
braska State Journal and later was
made editor in chief of the Lincoln
Star, where some of the finest work
of his newspaper career was carried
out.

Remarkable Cast in "The Affairs of
Anatol" to be Shown at the
Pannele Net Week.
Twelve stellar players and a sup
porting cast of unrivaled quality
that's the record set by Cecil B. Pe
Mille's latest Paramount masterpiece,
"The Affairs of Anatol," which will
be shown at the Parmele next Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
The roster reads like screendom's
who's who.
The phrase "all-star cast" is a
much abused one but it adequately
describes a cast that includes Wal
lace Reid, famous Paramount star;
Gloria Swanson, Elliott Dexter, Bebe
Daniels. Monte Blue, Wanda Hawley,
Theodore Roberts. Agnes Aj-res,
Theodore Kosloff, Polly Moran, Ray
mond Hatton and Julia Faye.
Nothing like this cast in the way
of aggregate talent has ever been as-.
rembled before. The drawing power
of almost any of the names on ,the
roll has been sufficient to awaken
the interest of the discriminating
public. Here, for the first time, they
are appearing in a single production
under the direction of a master pro
ducer Cecil B. DeMille.
"The Affairs of Anatol" was writ
ten by Peanie Macpherson, author of
many notable Cecil B. De Mille pro
ductions. Her story was suggested
by Arthur Schnitzler's scintillating
comedy of the same name.
The came quality that Is featured
in the cast of principals and in the
authorship has been carried through
every phase of production work.
The supporting cast includes such
capable actors as Guy Oliver; Charles
Ogle, Clarence Geldait. Ruth Mil-.
leV, Maude Wayne, William Boyd.
Lucien Littlefield and others. The
beautiful settings are the work of
Paul Iribe, famous French artist and
decorator.

Washington, Sept. 27. State gov-1
crnors were requested by President!
Harding in a proclamation to desig-j
nate October 10, anniversary of the
Chicago fire, as fire preventian day. j
The proclamation follows: )
"Whereas. The United States suf-'
fers through destruction by- fire anj
nnnual loss of life estimated at 15,
000 human beings, most of them,
women and children; and j
"Whereas, . In the face of the j

ine the nrevious five-vear oeriod to-1
taled 1, 416, 675,000; and v
"Whereas, In addition forest fires
during the five years ended with

000,000. also threatening with arid
ity over 56,000,000 acres of hither
to productive woodland; and
"Whereas, Most of our fire losses
are due to garelessness and ignorance
and may be easily prevented by in
creased care and education- on the
part of citizens;
"Therefore, I, Warren G. Harding,
president of the United States, do
urge upon the governors to desig
nate and set apart October 10, anni
versary of the Chicago fire, as fire
prevention day, with these principal
objects in view, to-wit:
"To request citizens of their states
to plan for that day and period, thru
pulpit, thru forum and thru the
schools, such instructive and educa
tional exercises as shall Impress the
public mind with the calamitous ef
fects and threatened economic disas
ter of such unnecessary fire waste;
to urge, as an everyday duty of cit
izenship, individual and collective ef
forts in conserving our country's
natural and created resources, and to
promote systematic instruction in
fire prevention in our schools, con
stant observance of the .ordinary pre
cautions that safeguard us from fire
and an orderliness in home and com-!
munity that we may overcome this,
lurking peril. .
"Fire is a danger that never

Indianapolis, Sept. 27. Every in
sidious attack against the principles
of free government must ba fought
off, Commander-in-Chief W. A. Ket
chaia of the Grand Army of the Re
public declared in an address at the
formal opening of the 55th annual
encampment.
He told his comrades they should
"set their faces like flint against all
the evils that are threatening bol
shevlsm, I. W. W'ism, anarchism,
Ku Klux Klans. whatever their name
may be that tend to throw a blight
on the fair name of the land that
we saved and still love."
Commander Ketcham's address
marked the opening of the business
session. Whila the veterans were
meeting. allied organizations also
began fcrmal gatherings. The Sons
of Veterans began their convention
this afternoon. The auxiliary of this
organization also opened its meet
ing. .
Mrs. Inez Jameson Bender, presi
dent of the Womans Relief Corps,
In opening the session of that body
suggested unification of the women's
organizations affiliated with the Or.
A. R.
While the various organizations
were meeting, the veterans also
found time to attend brigade and
regimental reunions.
As on previous days, the veterans
apparently found more pleasure in
the Informal reunions with their war
time friends than in the formal sessions.
DAYLIGHT SAVING IS
HARMFUL, HE SAYS
Doctor Experiments on Eabbits and
Finds It Makes Them More Ner
vous to "Save" an Hour.
NOW ABLE TO BE AROUND
Yesterday Dr. B. F. Brendel of
Murray was able to be around for a
short time after his prolonged ill
ness and was able to walk from his
home to several of the business
places of Murray with the assis
tance of his son. The many friends
of the veteran doctor will be pleased
to learn that he is showing such an
improvement and trust that he may
soon have the entire recovery from
his longstanding illness.
Daily Journal, 15c a week.
Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 27. That
daylight saving is injurious to the
health and nervous system of hu
mans is the contention of Dr. Wil
liam Franklin Baker, president of
the Philadelphia county homeopathic
medical society. He gives what he
considers conclusive proof of the
contention.
The proof is contained in experi
ments which Dr. Baker carried on
with two rabbits. Rabbits are af
fected in much the same way as hu
mans would be under certain condi
tions, the doctor said, and that is
why they are used extensively in
medical and scientific experiments.
The two rabbits with which Dr.
Baker experimented were the same
weight and from the same litter
when he started, he said. They were
living then under normal conditions.
Now, after a few months living by
daylight saving time, one 'of the rab
bits is ten ounces lighter and is ner
vous and twitchy, while the other,
kept under regular conditions, is per
fectly normal in every way.
The "daylight-saving" rabbit wa3
kept awake for one hour every
night and awakened an hour earlier
in the morning, simulating, accord
ing to Dr. Baker, the results of day
light saving on the human race.
"What is true of rabbits is true of
human beings, particularly of the
young," said Dr. Kaker. "There is
a definite rhythm or cycle of the day.
It is a well known fact that man
reaches his lowest ebb of energy
between 2 and 4 a. m. Under day
light saving he does not recover as
thoroughly from his low ebb. Often
it is noon before he reaches anything
like efficiency."
