MISS ALICE LAI)
DIES AT OMAHA
DURING WEEK
Member of One of the Well Known
Families of Cass County Suc
cumbs to Long Illness.
The death of Miss Alice Lau, mem
ber of one of the old families of Cass
county, occurred at Omaha this week
following an illness of some dura
tion and during which time she has
been gradually failing. The Lau fam
ily came to the vicinity of Murdock
many years ago and there are still
a large number cf the family residing
there and numbered among the most
highly respected residents of that
portion cf the county.
Miss Lau made her home in Om
nha for the past year and a half,
living with her sister, Mrs. Chris
Bartle and family, but a few weeks
ago her condition became such that
it was necessary to have her taken to
the Swedish Mission hospital, where
she remained until the time of her
death.
The deceased lady was born May 9,
IS 63, at Buena Vista, Illinois, and
when but a child was brought west
to Nebraska and has 6pent her life
time in Cass county, where she has
been loved and respected by a very
large circle of friends and acquaint
ances of many years standing. Four
brothers of the deceased lady, Wil
liam, Fred, Ferdinand and Emil Lau,
are all prominent residents of the
vicinity of Murdock.
The funeral services ere held th's
afternoon from the brick churh near
Murdock, near where the deceased
resided for so many years. Interment
was made in the cemetery near the
church where rest the other members
of the family who have gone on be
fore. Henry A. Guthman and the wife,
who have been in Florida for the
past three weeks, where they hare
enjoyed the sunny southland for the
time, and which they say is some
thing very fine, arrived home last
Saturday, and while they had a most
excellent time while gone they were
real glad to get hack and see the
familiar faces cf their many friends
here, for they have many in Cass
county as well as in Murdock.
Murdock the Beautiful
The people of Murdock, who have
always been careful to have their
town look the best have just graded
the streets and are making the nat
ural beauty of the town more so by
their careful caring for their lawns
and streets, and now have the streets
in excellent condition. They take
much care to have the buildings all
P3luted and locking their best, as all
cities should. The lawns are kept in
good condition and the business sec
tion also presents a very nice appear
ance. The main street should be
either graveled or paved to make it
better when the roads are wet and
muddy.
One of the progressive citizens has
made an offer -of three cash prizes
for the three best letters from the
citizens telling about Murdock and
hat best to do to make it a better
place in which to do business and a
better place in which to have homes.

SCHWAB CRITICIZED
FOR WORK AS HEAD
OF SHIPPING BOARD
Charged With Misuse of Power in
Suit For $11,000,000 Kkd
Against Company.
New York, April 17. Suit for
$9,744,899.94 was filed here today
by the Bethlehem Shipbuilding cor
poration against the United States
Shipping Board Emergency Fleet
corporation, claiming the amount as
balances due on account of construc
tion of 86 vessels during and just
after the war.
The filing oi the complaint In this
suit in the United States district
court here was simultaneously with
the government's films of a suit for
approximately' $11,000,000 against
the Bethlehem Shipbuilding corpor
ation and subsidiaries in Philadel
phia, in accordance with fin agree
ment by opposing counsel. Surn
nor.s in the Bethlehem company's
suit had been filed in the state
courts last May, but action is trans
ferred now to the United States
court.
Enters Vigorous Denial
P-oth Charles M. Schwal- chairman
of thr board of directors of the Beth
lehem Steel corporation, and the
Bethlehem Shipbuilding corporation.
Mid Eugene G. Grace, president of
the former concern, issued state
inents today in denial ol the charge
rrnde in the government's suit at
Philadelphia that Mr. Schwab as di
rector general of the Emergency
F'.eet corporation from April 11 to
December 12, 191S, misused his
;o"crs in favor of hi- own company.
Mr. Grace pointed out that Mr.
F.?hwab had accepted that post at
the "urgent solicitation of Pr -ident
''Villon and the shipping board at a
time of serious national crisis," and
thrt b bc.Jiino director general of
the Emergency - Fleet corporation
"upon the express under-standing, re
duced to writing, that the would
have nothing whatever to do with
the relations between the fleet cor
poration and the Bethlehem inter
ests." - Show Appointment Letter
"Mr. Schwab faithfully carried cut
this arrangement." Mr. Grace said.
Mr. Schwab issued the following
Lta'cincnt:
"I have nothing to add to Mr.
Grace's statement beyond giving out
my letter to the government's Emer
gency Fleet corporation stating tho
undfrstRDding with President Wil
son under which I took office. These
connected with the shipping board
and the Emergency Fleet corpora
tion know that I sedulously observed
the arrangement that I would k"cp
hr.nilj off relations between the fleet
corporation and'' Bethlehem. The
charge now made that despite this
r r.dorstanding I should have affirm
atively interfered in the relations
with Bethlehem speaks for itself."
Mr. Schwab a'so published his let
ter written to the president and
trustees of the Emergency Fleet cor
poration April "0, 1918. in which he
listed 13 corporations in which he
":es interested f nd rer-tinted that all
business between the Heel corpora
tion and these companies be handled
"entirely by euch other officers or
asents of the Emergency Fleet cor
poration" ss the trustees might des
ignate. A later resolution of the
trustees accepted this arrangement.
Says Saved U. S. Ilcney
Mr. Grace's statement said, that
the Bethlehem company, in its con
struction cf SG fhips for the govern
ment, eectcd savings of about $30,
000.000 below estimated co?ts.
The shipbuilding corporation al
leges that it has not been paid the
full amount due on 32 contracts.
BROWN IS REFUSED
PERMISSION TO SPEAR
Bishop Manning Bars Ousted Pre
late From Any Episcopal
Parish in New York.
New York, April 17. Bishop Wil
liam T. Manning tonight forbade Dr.
William Montgomery Brown, former
Protestant Episcopal bishop of Ar
kansas, from officiating or speaking
in any parish or mission of the New
York diocese.
In another letter to Dr. W. N.
Guthrie, rector of St. Mark's-in-the-Bouwerie,
Bishop Manning said that
Dr. Guthrie's invitation to Bishop
Brown to speak in St. Mark's next
Sunday was in "open contempt and
defiance of the authority and law of
the church."
Bishop Brown was convicted of
heresy last year by a trial court of
the Protestant Episcopal church.
Later a court or review affirmed this
judgment and ordered him "deposed
from the ministry of this church."
Bishop Manning, as bishop of the
New York diocese, announced that
Bishop Brown was "inhibited from
officiating or speaking i- St. Mark';
parish or any other parish or mission
in this diocese."
Bishop Manning said such right
wa? granted him by a canon of the
church allowing the bishop to inhibit
a minister coming intj the diocosa"
under the imputation of having else
where been guilty of any cf the of
fenses" within the heresy coiie.
In his letter to Dr. Guthrie. Bishop
Manning reminded him that St.
Mark's had been deprived of Episco
pal visitation or ministration on
March 26, 1924, because of the cu
rythmical dancing rites performed
there, and that under the canons of
the church no bishop could excercise
his office at St. Mark's without .
Bishop Manning's consent. j
Miss Josephine Altman departed
yesterday afternoon for Lincoln,
wh"re she will enjey an over Sunday
visit with relatives and friends in
that city.

CM OF WAR DEBT
- ONE OF FIRST ACTS
Friends of Caillaux Announce Settle -
ment
to Be Wade According
To His Promise.
Paris. April 17. Settlement of the
war debts will be one of the first
cares of the new finance minister. M.
Caillaux, according .to friends with
whom he talked yesterdav.
M. Caillaux -.sill, frst ofall. it
is said, set about to provide a safe
margin cf cash for the French
treasury and then, with a view to
final stabilization of the franc, will
take up the debts, which he consid
ers one of the greatest obstacles to
a complete financial renovation.
The new finance minister, it is
added, will confirm M. Clementtl's
pssurances that France intends to
repudiate no obligation, but he wfll
negotiate closelv as to terms and
perhaps as -to amounts. An indica
tion of how he regards tho war debts
is found in his speech cn
19 on the occasion of his
tation" after the amnesty,
February
'rehabiii- j
in which :
i
he said:
"Our country would have
met the
crazy financial chaos which continu-l
ed long after the armistice if never
tiring incapacity had not thrown on
her shoulders the burden of advanc
ing the entire cost of repairing the
war damages, which the partial pay
ing of scrae of them, and the weight
of the inler-allied debts."
He then declared that the for
mula "Germany would pay" had
produced a disastrous result, mak
ing France advance fifty-seven bil
lion francs on Germany's account.
As the total damages in the devas
tated region amounted to eighty-two
billion francs, there remained twen-tv-five
billion still to pay, while, he
