GERMAN INDUSTRY
WANTS HONORABLE
PACT WITH FRANCE
Leaders Abandon Hope of British
Action Situation Intolerable
To Both Participants.
Essen. Sept. 6. If the government
of Chancellor Stresemann decides to
make direct overtures to France and
Belgium to end the Ruhr deadlock,
regardless of what Great .Britain
does, it will have the support of an
overwhelming' proportion of the in
dustrial leaders and of the German
population generally, provided Ger
man sovereignty in the occupied ter
ritories is guaranteed.
TEls opinion was expressed to the
correspondent of the Associated
Press today by a prominent manu
facturer who requested that "for ob
vious reasons" his name be not men
tioned. The manufacturer declared
that there now was no use in hiding
the fact that everybody felt it was
time to begin to do everything pos
sible to bring to an end an impossi
ble economic situation. . '
Would Meet Half Way
"We are ready," said the manu
facturer, "to discuss any sort of set
tlement which would leave each side
with a reasonable amount of honor.
Most of the manufacturers and heads
of industry see there is no use of
further counting on Great Britain.
We must realize that if Germany,
France and Belgium could throw
away pride and come to reason we
could reach an accord that would be
best for all concerned.
"For our part, we are willing to
meet them half way."
This manufacturer said he thought
the more level heads on both sides
were beginning to realize that the
present situation could not last with
out great loss to both sides and in
tolerable suffering to the population.
He added frankly that it was be
cause the Germans thought if the
endurance test was continued France

undoubtedly could force terms that
the German leaders wanted to begin
to talk business.
Can Either Side Gain?
"France apparently is all power
ful." he said, "and eventually could
bring us to our knees; but would she
or we gain anything, materially or
morally, by going to such an extrem
ity? We still believe that continued
passive resistance would keep France
and Belgium forever from putting
the Ruhr industries on a paying ba
sis; but we quite realize tnat ranee
and Belgium could prevent us from
restoring our industries to a point
where they would pay.
"In the Ruhr each side has the
other by the throat, neither can
breathe until the other lets go.".
Two prerequisites to a settlement
of the controversy, in the belief of
this representative of industry, were
restoration of occupied territory to
complete sovereignty and fixing.
once for all time, the definite amount
Germany must pay.
"The main thing," he said, "is that
conciliation is in the air, if France
and Belgium want to make a bargain
with us ot restore European civiliza
tion on a real partnership basis."
NEW CHARGE FOR
REV. BUCKNER
Goes to Congregational Pastorate at
Chamberlain, S. D., Formerly
Occupied by His Son.
Aurora, Neb., Sept. 5. Lst Sun
day saw the Rev. J. D. M. Buckner
take his place in the Congregational
church at Chamberlain, S. D. This
writes another chapter in the ecclesi
astical battle between this minister
and the officers of his church. It will
be remembered that Mr. Buckner
was removed from the pastorate, ac
cording to his claims in the papers
by his bishop last fall, because he
had been preaching a too liberal
theology, disclaiming his belief in
the Bible as an inspired book and his
disbelief of other tennents held by
the Methodist church at large.
A reception was given tc Mr.
Buckner by the church here of which
he was the pastor for a number of
years, m response to tne toasts
given at the reception. Mr. Buckner
explained that while he was taking
up the work in the Congregational !
church it was because he had been

ECLIPSE OF THE
SUN TO OCCUR ON
NEXT MONDAY
Will Start at 1 :44 T. M. in This Lo
cality and Last Until 3:58
60 Per Cent Complete
The residents of the United States
;will have the opportunity on next
! Monday of viewing an eclipse of the
!sun that will cover seven-twelfths of
'the surface of the orb of day and
which in this portion of the country
will enter into the eclipse at 1:44 in
the afternoon and pass from the
shadow of the moon at 3:58 p. m.
This will be an unusual opportun
ity for the students of astronomy as
well &s science to make observations
and a great many are planning to
set up their cameras and secure
photograps of the sun as it is shad
owed. The following relative to the
eclipse will be of a great deal of in
terest to the persons who are plan
ning to observe the eclipse as well as
to those who are to try and photo-
! graph the unusual occurance.
The eclipse will be seen in tne
greater part of this country only as
a partial covering of the sun's disk
by that of the moon. The path of
total eclipse, which is less than 100
miles wide, will pass through the
extreme southern end of California,
ljust including San Diego, tnrougn
the northern part of lower i:amor
nia and then down through Mexico.
An eclipse is a great opportunity for
scientific observers, many of whom
will be stationed at different points
along this band of totality for mak
ing their photographs and experi
ments. It is suggested that the smallest
stop be used in the lens and the
shutter set for the fastest speed, then
make one exposure every five minutes
without turning the film during the
eclipse.
A single exposure can of course be .
made of the eclipse, in which case
the camera can be held in the hands,
but a succession of images at equal
distances apart will make a more
effective showing. A color filter
would aid in preventing over-exposure
if the day is unusually clear
and the atmosphere free from haze.
It is suggested however, that no
change be made in the combination
of stop and shutter speed mentioned
above, even if a G filter is used. In
place of a filter a piece of film that
has been exposed to light and de
veloped to ood density could be used
in front of the lens to prevent over
exposure. It is also recommended
that if the sun is not obscured by
clouds the time of development be
reduced to half of that which would
be given normally.
Another series of interesting pic
tures at the time would be photo
graphs of the crescent-shaped im
ages of the eclipsed sun. which are
cast on the ground in the Ehadows
of trees and on walls shaded by i

LEGION WINNER
OF RACE TO SEEK -PARDON
FOR VET
Mississippi Slayer Freed by Acting
Governor While Executive is
Absent Frcm the State.
Jackson. Miss., Sept. 7. The
American Legion today obtained a
pardon for Sharp Welborn, former
service man, and in accomplishing
the feat afforded that part of Missis
sippi between Pickens and Jackson
and along the Illinois Central rail
road from McComb to the Louisiana
state line great excitement. It was a
race between two powerful automo
biles, one from Jackson to Canton, 24
miles, the other from Pickens to Can
ton, 20 miles, and an Illinois Central
flyer with Governor Russell aboard
bound north from New Orleans. The
legionnaires had set out to meet
Lieut. Gov. Homer Sasteel at Canton
before the train crossed the state
line at Osyka and they won the race
with only eight minutes to spare.
"Welborn served in the navy and
later became mentally defective from
exposure at sea. In 1919 he com
mitted manslaughter in Jasper coun
ty. He had hardly begun to serve a
sentence of eight years before the le
gion, the veterans bureau and hun
dreds of Mississippians started a cam
paign for a pardon in order that the
offer of the veterans bureau to send
him to a hospital for treatment might
be accepted. Governor Russell stead
fastly refused clemency.
Governor Russell visited Memphis,
Tenn., for a day last spring and dur
ing his absence the lieutenant gover
nor issued a pardon. As a result of
the controversy that followed legal
authorities ruled that the lieutenant
governor had power to grant clem
ency while acting as chief executive.
The governor countered with the
declaration that not until his term
expired in January would he again
leave the state, but he did so last
night and it was this the legion
took advantage of.
Curtis Green, state commander of
the legion, head that the governor
was in New Orleans. By the time he
had confirmed the report he was ad
vised Mr. Russell had boarded a train
for Jackson. Legionnaires were or
dered to report the time of its arriv
al at Osyka on the state line.
Green and his co-workers here tel
ephoned the lieutenant governor at
Pickens to go to Canton as quickly as
possible. Green, Welborn's attor
neys and Secretary of State Joseph
V. Bower armed with the legal par
don forms, started from Jackson In
another car. The lieutenant gover
nor drove from Pickens to Canton.
Meantime the party from Jackson
was rushing northward. Both cars
drew up at Madison county court
house simultaneously and the lieu
tenant governor signed Welborn
pardon at 10:18 a. m. The train
bearing the governor crossed . the
state line at Osyka at 10:26.
BRYAN TALKS OF
RECENT PROTES
"If such a resolution was adopted
by the Nebraska farm bureau federa
tion," said Governor Bryan, "some
one who has been inoculated more
with politics than, bovine tuberculo
sis must have imposed upon the fed
eration," says the State Journal.
The governor had reference to
resolution which says he has refused
to recognize the new state law for
the eradication of bovine tuberculo
sis and recommends that steps be
taken by farm organizations to com
pel the governor to permit the en
forcement of the law,
He said he had heard no complaint
about failure to enforce the law.
"The state has made all arrange
ments- and is prepared to carry out
the intent of 'that law and all other
laws under the governor's jurisdic
tion," said Governor Bryan. The
federal government has been asked
to meet the state appropriation of
$2S5,000 for eradication. The state
department of agriculture has ap
proved rules submitted br the fed
eral department,
The governor explained that the
legislature amended the law relating
to so-calld area work so as to require
a petition representing a majority of
tne owners and a majority of the
livestock in a county. Only one
county. Polk, has filed such a peti
tion. This petition is beiher checked
for sufficiency and form. Fifteen
per cent of the appropriation Is ac
credited herds, but only one inquiry
has been received under this head.
and he was told that part of the law
Is to be enforced
The law seems to eliminate dairy
interests of the state," said the gov
ernor. Though much has been said
about eradication as a health meas
ure there is no provision in the law
to permit owners of dairy cattle to
get indemnity. The law covers only
breeding cattle, but I hope it can be
construed so as to cover dairy in
terests. "I have communications from phy
sicians in this and pther states which
say human health is not endangered
by bovine tuberculosis. We have no
such law in the state north of Ne
braska nor in the state south of us.
so if eradication protects health we
" . t
are without this protection along our
hnrflor.
"Condemned cattle are approved
by federal inspectors at packing
houses and the meat is sold at full
price for beef. The medical profes
sion has not approved laws for eradi
cation of bovine tuberculosis. It is
the horse doctors and the packers.

FOUND THEM ALL BUSY
The representative of the Journal
accompanied by his better half took
a trip through the country last Sat
urday to see how the farmers were
prospering and the first stop was at
the home of S. G. Cisney where we
found he has been picking corn from
this year's growing for the feeding
of his hogs and an excellent quality
of corn for this year, hard enough
to feed and grown on the farm of C.
R. Troop. Mr. Cisney himself was
over on the north and south road
cutting trees and brush which over
hung the road and in the winter af
forded a place for the snow to lodge.
Mr. Cisney was endeavoring to get
the road in such a condition that K.
L. Kniss the mail carrier could get
through. We next stopped at the
home of Nelson Berger who had just
returned from a trip to Omaha where
he had taken his neighbor. William
Jourgeson to the hospital for a spe
cial examination since having his leg
broken with a gas engine sometime
ago. Mr. Jourgeson will have to re
main at the hospital for some time.
Mr. Berger had us visit his vineyard
and orchard and loaded up with
grapes and apples on our departure.
Thanks. Nelson. We next found
Nick Klaurens in the hay field, he
having it all on his hands now as
John Frans who has been with him
has accepted a position in the Bur
lington shops at Plattsmouth and
Roy Klaurens with the M-ife has gone
to Peru to attend the normal school
there. Leaving there we stopped at
the home of W. C. Hodge where we
found him and son Sterling having
the farm work in good shape and
their crops looking fine. At the
home of C. W. Fleischman we found
that gentleman harvesting his po
tato crop and from about quarter
of an acre has secured a wagon box
with the side boards on of excellent
tubers about fifty bushels and of a
very fine quality. We next stopped
at the home of W. A. Ost where we
were greeted by that genial gentle
man and his amiable wife, visiting
for a time with them. Mr. Ost suf
fered some from the hall storm but
has his farm in good condition and
everything looking fine. Our last
place was to see Clarence (Bud)
Willis and sister Laura where after
a brief visit we hiked for home, it
being some twenty miles away and
the "Black Devil," our car, not hav
ing her light working we had to
pound her over the back getting
home before dark.
