Former Dry
Head is Back
ing Brennan
G. 0. P. Office Holder Will Take the
Stump on Democrat's Wet
Plank, He Says.
1 Chicago, Au.?. 12. His champion
ship of dry law modification to per
mit the sale of beer and light wines
has brought George E. Brennan, dem
ocratic senatorial nominee, strong
republican support from a former
federal prohibition director.
John Kjellander, lifelong republi
can, prominently identified with
party activities in Chicago, and form
er prohibition director for Illinois,
announced today he would support
Brennan in the senatorial contest.
Still Republican
'"I want it understood." Kjellander
explained, "that I am still a repub
lican, but I intend to go all the way
with Brennan because he had the
courage to come out boldly against
one of the greatest perils that threat
ens the nation. My experience as a
prohibition officer has convinced me
that Brennan has taken the right po
sition." The platforms of Brennan and
Smith are almost identical except for
the "dripping wet" plank which that
of Brennan contains. Smith has yet
to reveal his stand on the wet and
dry issue.
Willing to Stump
Kjellander said he was prepared to
take the stump to further hi3 chances
for election. Seventy-five per cent of
the people, Kjellander said, are op
posed to the Volstead law.
"The Volstead law has become a
menace to the enforcement of all
laws." he said. "It has made the
people violators of nearly all laws.
All over the country crime violations
have increased and the people, being
under the influence of the stuff that
is served today do not know what
they are doing.
"I am not criticising the prohibi
tion office. I know they have an
impossible ta sk."
Kjellander served as city sealer
under Mayor Busse's regime, repre
sented the old twenty-third ward in
the city council for five years and was
clerk of the 'superior court for five
years.

Wisconsin Holds
Political Stage
Next Coolidge Test Will Come From
Badger State; La Follette
in the Balance.
Washington, Aug. 11. Politician?
here today turned their attention tc
the Wisconsin primary bitterest ol
all the thirty-eight primaries of the
year3.
The republicans on September 7
will determine the future status ol
the old La Follette organization
which in 1924 caused the late Senatoi
Robert M. La Follette Sr. to bolt in
an independent movement for the
presidency.
Coolidge adherents are pitted
against La Follette adherents iu the
race between Senator Irvin Lenrool
and Governor John J. Blaine for the
republican senatorial nomination
which Is virtually equivalent to elec
tion. Lenroot, backed by the Coolidge
group, is being vigorously fought by
Senator Robert La Follette Jr., whe
is compaigning the state in behalf ol
Blaine. Lenroot is a dry. favoring f
state referendum, and Blaine a wet
who is making no effort to develoi
prohibition as an issue in the cam-
i paign.
Favored World Court.
Lenroot fostered the question o!
American adherence to the world
court for the administration, and Lr
Follette is making this one of the im
portant issues. He is also opposing
Lenroot on farm relief and on the
ground that he voted to seat Sena
tor Newberry, republican, Michigan
after it had been shown Newberr
spent $195,000 In his primary cam
paign.
If Lenroot is nominated politicians
here will interpret the result as f
break in the long standing La Fol
lette control of the state. If La Fol
lette succeeds in putting Blaine over,
it will be considered that his father's
organization, which he is now lead
ing, must be reckoned with by the
national organization as strongei
than before.

Clemenceau is
Unjust Borah
Says in Reply
This Charge of Usury Is Unfounded
in Fact and Dishonest in
Purpose.
Boise, Idaho. Aug. 11. Senator
William E. Borah of Idaho, chairman
of the foreign affairs committee, ha?
prepared a statement in response tc
inquiries regarding his opinion of the
open letter from Georges Clemenceau
war-time premier of France, to Presi
dent Coolidge.
The letter, issued Sunday in Paris
contained an appeal not to treat the
settlement of the French debt as a
commercial matter. Clemenceau de
clared the proposed BerengerMellon
debt agreement to be impossible of
fulfillment and that it threatened
the independence of France.
In his statement Senator Borah
said:
"Clemenceau's letter i3 so cruelly
misleading as in his intimation that
we are undermining tne independ
ence of France, and so deliberately
unjust where he refers to waiting
for America to enter the war, and
where he crticizes the United States
for making a separate treaty of
peace with Germany, and yet so path
etic in manifest love to his coun
try, htat I prefer not to comment at
length. He is one whose unfounded
wrath we "can afford to ignore and
whose malicious insinuations we can
afford to pass by. It would seem that
if they have anything io eay of a
people whom they once hailed as
their unselfish deliverers, they would
at least speak the language of truth
and graciousness. To state that we
are trying to undermine the inde
pendence of France, or that some
body wants to buy France, approach
es the absurd. ...
"If they want to cancel their debts
let them include all debts' and all
reparations . and show that benefit
of the cancellation will go to human
ity and to betterment of the masses
of Europe and not to the benefit of
the imperialistic schemes which are
now crushing the life out of people
who were in no sense responsible
for this war.
"This constant charge of injustice
and usury on the part of the United
States is simply not only unfounded
in fac, but dishonest in purpose."

PYTHIANS MAY UNDERTAKE
WORK TO AID LEPERS
Chicago, 111., Aug. 11. Eradica
tion of leprosy was placed before the
supreme lodge of the Knights of
Phythian knighthood might labor,"
something worth while in its scope
something philanthropic, something
that will prove conclusively that the
knight is the champion and defender
pf suffering humanity always and
everywhere."
Under the resolution, which was
referred to a committee, th order
would interest itself in the leper
?olony of Culion island, Philippine
islands, where approximately 5,600
lepers, 11 of them white men. are
-onfined. It was there that Frank
b. Stevens, a Pythian died. The work
if undertaken, would be in the na
ture of a memorial to nim.
The resolution, if approved by the
supreme lodge, would be referred to
the various state and provincial
lodges, and if approved by a majority
jf them would become effective.

Heavy Demand
for 1927 Type
Automobiles
Detroit Reports Sales of New Models
Exceed All Expectations Few
Outstanding Changes.
Detroit, Mich., Aug. 12. Sales of
new models have exceeded the expec
tations of the sales managers of the
leading automobile companies which
have announced their 1927 line
motorcars during the last month. As
a consequence leaders in the automo
tive industry are more inclined than
ever to predict a new all-time produc
tion figure for 1926.
The 1927 models present few out
standing changes in design or con
struction and but slight variations in
prices from the 1926 models. There
is everywhere a manifest tendency to
retain the same general appearance
and the same body design as in this
year's models.
August 1 really marks the begin
ning of a new year, in the motor
world. Many companies start their
fiscal year on that date, while the
larger number of manufacturers take
advantage of the usual pick-up in
business during the latter weeks of
summer and the early weeks of fall
to offer the public a better automo
bile. Output Fulfills Prophecies
The output of America's automo
tive plants during the first seven
month of the present year have ful- Ghrist, Carrie E. Ghrist, James O.
filled the prophecies of the optimistic Epperson, Gertrude Epperson and
leaders made during the Automobile Omaha Association of Credit Men, a
show period last January, and with corporation, defendants, to satisfy a

condition there appears to automo- The Standard Savings and Loan As
tive chiefs here no reason to believe sociation, of Omaha, Nebraska, plain
that motorcar production will fall off tiff against said defendants,
during the remaining months of the Plattsmouth, Nebraska, August 13,
year. 'A. D. 1926.
At present the big question among j
leaders in the industry is "What will i
Ford do?" Sales of the present Ford
models have fallen off considerably.
Production is not as great as it was
last fall and during the winter. But
the answer ta the question cannot be
found. For years there has been talk
of a six-cylinder car to give the Ford
organization an entry in the medium
priced class, but this talk has never
developed into any definite action,
However, with a capacity for pro-
ducing 10,000 units a day and with
control over so many of the raw pro -
ducts which enter into the manufac-
ture of an automobile, competent ob-
servers believe the industry on the
eve of an announcement from Ford
of outstanding importance.
An underlying cause for the de-
cline in Ford sales is said to be the
growing disposition of the public to
buy six-cylinder cars. Chrysler d,s-
continued the four about three or
four months ago, but recently an-
nounced that a new four will be
brought out soon to replace it.
Chevrolet Sales Jump
Sales of Chevrolets are jumping
ahead and much of this business is
believed to be what Ford has lost. It
is understood generally throughout
the industry that Dodge will enter
the six-cylinder claBS early in 1927,
but this does not mean the discon-j
tinuance of the four, at least for the
present. The new 'Whippet." man-
