PAGE FOUS PLATTSMOUTH SEMI - WEEKLY JOURNAL MONDAY, SEPT. 17, 1928. Appeal for Aid is Made at Walthill Property Loss in Scores of Devas tated Farms Expected to Exceed $1,000,000 Stricken and bewildered by the fury of Thursday's tornado that killed and maimed them, that tore their farm and schools down, resi dents of northeast Nebraska and southeast South Dakota, Friday pre pared to bury their dead, and hunt for shelter. Thirteen were killed in Nebraska and South Dakota in the terrific. twisters of Thursday afternoon, and hundreds were injured or left home less. Only ruins remain of once com fortable farm homes, corn fields are desolated, trees are broken off and uprooted, and the countryside re sembles a battlefield, or the scene of a devastating flood. Appeals for financial assistance have been broadcast by the Walthill Commercial club. Many in the storm zone are destitute. Relief committees have been organized and the need for help is urgent, it was said. Men who had worked all their lives to provide homes and an edu cation for their children, saw those children snatched from their arms by the fearful wind, their homes shat tered, and the schoolhouses turned into shambles. By some strange trick of fate, the howling wind missed the towns of Bancroft, Pender, Walthill, Winne bago, Homer and Dakota City, al though its destructive path found in and around the farming communities near them. Pitiful are the scenes in the hos pitals, where mothers watch their children battle for life, and wives sit by the bedside of their husbands. Stolid Indian women, shaken by the wrath of the Great Spirit impassively sit in the hospital at Winnebago. In this hospital lies Mrs. Mathilda Smith, a young Indian woman, whose leg was amputated at the knee Thurs day night. She is to become a mo ther, and dazed by shock, she has not yet been told of the operation. She may not live. Property Loss Huge. In the Walthill hospital, where nurses and doctors have worked 24 hours without rest, death is very near to some of the tiny school child ren, caught at their desks by the fur ious black wind. Two were killed in the Lamere school near Walthill, and one boy, Andrew Larson, his skul? fractured may die. Property loss will be terrific. Live stock, buildings, homes and crops totally or partially destroyed was ir many cases not covered 'by insurance and life will hove to begin anew for many men past the prime of life Cornfields resemble acres of reeds, sc cleanily stripped are the stalks. Damage will amount to almost SI, 000. 000, insurance claims . indi cated Friday. Omaha Bee-News. BIG TRAIN FOR LEGION Adjutant C. W.

Both Parties Plan Intensive RadioCampaign Democrats Set 'Aside $510,000 Both Parties to Use Na tional Hookup New York The Democratic Na tional Committee has announced that it has set aside $510,000 for radio casting the campaign to elect Gover nor Smith. The money will be spent for radiocasting the nominees' speeches, aa well as those of promi nent men and women who will take the stump during the campaign, in most cases using nation-wide hook ups, contracts nave Deen maae wun the National Broadcasting Company and the Columbia Broadcasting Sys tem and await the approval of John J.

The first important hook-up will be that for Governor Smith's speech at Omaha, Neb., Sept. 18, which will be given a coast to coast audition His second address at Oklahoma City on Sept. 20, will be sent out over the Columbia chain. Governor Smith r speeches will be given general cover age, while those of Senator Joseph T. Robinson will be confined to the mid dle West and South.

State Banks t o Receive $104,850 Money Collected by Commission for Conservation Jfund to be triven Back to Contributors Secretary Bliss of the Department of Trade and Commerce ia at work upon an apportionment of $104,850 to state banks that contributed this money to the banker's conservation fund. This money is to be turned over to his department by the guar anty fund commission. Instead of being used as a revolving fund to be loaned to weak banks taken over for operation the money Is to be given back to banks contributing it. When the guaranty fund commis sion was created in 1923 the new law provided for an assessment upon the state banks for a separate conserva tion fund. This assessment was lev ied upon about 1,000 banks then existing. It raised a little less than $700,000. This fund was created for the purpose of preventing the closing of banks and conserving the guaranty fund. It was to belong to the banks contributing it. Banks were to carry the amount remitted on their books as an asset debited to the bankers conservation fund until such time as it shall be repaid or charged off against the profits of the bank not needed for purposes .other than the payment of dividends. Money taken from the bankers' conservation fund and loaned to banks operated by the guaranty fund commission is treated as a deposit in such banks and when assets are col lected or the banks operated are liquidated the loan or deposit Is paid back. The $104,850 now turned over to the Department of Trade and Com merce will be paid back to contribut ing banks in the ratio of their con tributions. The bankers conservation fund now carried as assets by 746 going banks amounts to $541,046. The bal ance of the original fund is in oper ated or liquidated banks. OIL PROPERTY VANISHES Cheyenne. Wvo.. Sent. 14. Ren resentatives of the United States marshal s office here announced to day that when they sought to carry out an order of the federal court to collect approximately $3,000,000 due the government by the Mammoth Oil company inn connection-with the cancellation of the Teapot Dome lease, only ? 15,000 . worth of prop erty was found in nnd near Casper. The report of the marshal was made to 4. D. Walton, United States dis trict attorney. . I ' Young Robbers are Given Jolt in Saunders County Elder of Two Robbers Implicated in Robberies at Louisville and Colon Sentenced. The two young men that were im plicated in the robbery of the. John son store at Louisville as well as robberies at Colon and Swedesberg, and who were turned over to the Saunders county authorities where the more serious crimes were com mitted have been given their need ings in the district court of that county. The services of Sheriff Reed and Deputy Young were employed for several weeks in tracing down the robbers but as the Saunders county cases offered the greater op portunity of conviction the men were turned over to that county after their capture in Omaha. The following from the Wahoo Democrat gives a statement of the case: 1 Frank Hogue .and Cyrus Hoke, the Colon and Swedesburg burglars, pled guilty before Judge Landis Saturday and were sentenced. Hogue, the old er and leader, was given three years in the penitentiary and Hoke 18 months in the men't reformatory at Lincoln. On August 25th the men broke and entered the McCaw Drtiff store at Colon and on the 28th plun dered the Joseph H. Trutna store at Swedeburg. At Colon about $40 worth of cigarettes and smoking to bacco was taken while at Swede burg the amount o f merchandise stolen amounted to $250. The par ticulars of the capture and the find ing of much of the stolen goods was detailed in our last issue. . Before sentence was pronounced Judge Lan dis gave them a quizzing through which it developed that Hogue was 29 years of age, a native of Wayne, Nebr., and a resident of Blue Springs, Nebr., his father being a cream sta tion operator at Wymore. He also has a brother and sister, but none of the relatives were In court. He professed to having been reared as a Methodist, but admitted he hadn't worked at it much of late years. He is unmarried, but appeared to have a female friend in Omaha for whose benefit his theieving had , been, done, although he also said he couldn't get work and wanted to go home, but didn't like to do so empty hand ed. He confessed of five other rob beries and also to the fact that he had once been convicted and was out on parole. Young Hoke is only 19 years old and a native of Wisconsin but his folks live at Pawnee City, Nebr. He had good training in early life, but It .was evident that his. will power was weak and when the robberies were suggested he acquiesced as the easy way to get money to go home on. He didn't appear to have any re ligious views. They met at Wilber where they worked a short time and then Frank suggested they travel about the country and pick up what they could. It is apparent they went to Omaha and from Oiere raided the small country towns that had no night police. The boy says he did not enter the buildings but watched while Frank did the work of break ing in and bringing out the swag. Here is a description of a pair of the men we call criminals today. Both are Nebraskans with average intelli gence, of good appearance and If we can believe them, had conscience that forbade them doing wrong. Looking behind the scenes it is evi dent that Hogue fell in with a wom an who worked him for all she could get. In attempting to appease her appetite for finery he even went so far as to steal a. dress from another woman and give it to her. He was unutterably weak and young, Hoke as his pal was yet weaker. Neither of them display the braggadocia spirit expected in criminals. They are neither expert in the calling nor clever at the get-away, just common Nebraska boys such as may be met every day on the streets. When the ordinary sons of respected Nebraska parents take to the criminal road what is to be said for the future. PARTY REVAMPING URGED Newark, N. J., Sept .12. A mo tion for complete reorganization of the prohibition party which would eventually result in its being nation ally known as the federal progressive party, was endorsed by the executive committee of New Jersey at a meet ing here today and praised by Wil liam F. Varney of Rockville Center, N. Y., the party's candidate for presi dent. "We need new and younger mem bers to carry on the traditions of the party,' Varney said, "but It is plain that they will not be attracted to an organization of such a negative nature as ours has grown to be ow ing . to present day conditions. A complete reoreanization. such as planned in New Jersey, is the cmly solution of this problem."

Brookhart, repub lican, of Iowa, the latter's resolu tion endorsing a pension for World war veterans was voted down almost unanimously at the closing session of the state American Legion con vention here today. Brookhart's resolution proposing that world war veterans be given the same pension drawn by Spanish war veterans. was turnea down Dy the committee yesterday, but he car ried the fight to the floor today. When the battle opened on the floor, MacNider, former assistant secretary of war, made a reference to "poli ticians who want to promise us some thing which they know they cannot deliver." Brookhart leaped to his feet, de claring, "I'll not be bluffed. I know the interests behind this talk. I know what money will wage the fight against me. I'll not be bluffed by any ! . no... one at any time. MacNider renlied that he "was at - a loss to know" whether the reso- lutlon offered was a repudiation of the legion stand or prompted by lack of information on what the legion is trying to do for the disabled. He called attention to the legion s part m sung inru CuSim me tablishing the veterans bureau. He wanted to know if the bureau had fallen d,own declaring it was up to l"e ibbiuh to nuu uut u utu the case. Spotted Poland China Soars.
