The Elmwood Chamber of Con merce has taken steps to put a stop to the series of petty thievery that has been taking place in their commun itv.

At the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce it was decided to have the town divided into four sections for the purpose of patrolling, the patron to operate at night and try and de tect if possible any person who might be carrying on the thieving. A night patrol of eight men will be organized from among the mem bers of the Chamber of Commerce, all of the members taking their turn at the patrol work during the winter season. The members of the patrol will be varied and the names of those called on duty each night will be kept secret by the officers of the Chamber of Commerce to assure more opportunity of capturing the author of the robberies.

Banning, of Union, veteran legislator and senator- elect from the second district of the state, was a guest at the high school convocation today. Senator Banning gave the students a very fine talk that showed the method by which bills were introduced into the legis lature and the various steps taken as they were passed along the legisla tive channels until final passage. Mr. Banning has served many terms in the legislature and as leader of the democratic minority In several sessions as well as member of the im portant committees. The remarks of Senator Banning were very instructive and gave all of the students an appreciation of the manner in which the laws are framed and finally enacted by the law mak ing body of the state.

Senator Banning has had an ex tensive experience in the Nebraska legislative life, being elected first as senator back in 1908, serving a num ber of terms in the upper body of the lawmakers. His service has won him places on many of the most im portant committees and particularly those that have had touch with the financial affairs of the state. He was able to give the Chamber of Com merce a fine discussion of how laws are prepared and guided through the legislative paths to final enactment or to their defeat on the roll call. He also gave hl3 views on many moves that will be necessary in the curtail ment of the expense of government, the paring of all appropriations as far as consistent with the proper handling of the state affairs. Mr. Nickles also spoke briefly and stated hi3 view on the move to place the state government on a less costly basis and one that would give the people of the state as good or more efficient government and at a much less cost to the taxpayers. The Chamber of Commerce was much pleased to have the legislators with them and to have the oppor tunity of the interchange of ideas on legislation that will be taken up at the session .ott the legislature In January.

With America in this determination are Great Britain, France, Germany and Italy. Altho this is not entirely what Mr. Davi3 eald he hoped for, the head of the American delegation said he con sidered that other peoples now felt there was a moral commitment to resume the task of disarmament after the Christmas holiday "in real earn est."

Warden Fenton May Get Federal Appointment Would Not Object to Taking $10,000 Job as Prison Director or as Member of Board. Warden W. T. Fenton declined Thursday to confirm a report that he is to leave hi3 present position for a federal appointment, but said he would like a federal Job under the Roosevelt administration if he can get. what he wants. . In the event of his leaving the service of the state a rumor is that Deputy Warden Kavanaugh would be in line for appointment to the war- denship of the state penitentiary. Rumors also are that State Sheriff Endres would ask for the state war- denship at the penitentiary.

Germany's acquiescence was ob tained when Great Britain, France and Italy declared, in the document, "that one of the principles that should guide the conference should be to grant, to Germany and other powers disarmament by treaty, of equality of rights in a system which would provide security for all nations, and this principle should find itself em bodied in a convention containing conclusions of the disarmament con ference." "This declaration," the statement continued, "implies that respective limitations of armaments for all states should be included in the pro posed disarmament convention. It is clearly understood jthat methods of application, such as equality of rights, will be discussed by the con ference." The document was signed by Prime Dr. Smith also gave a statement over his own name concerning Colonel Robins in which he said that any hint of there being subterfuge or decep tion concerning his disappearance, or hia recovery. i3 entirely unworthy and unwarranted. The statement Dr. Smith said Col onel Robins prepared during their visit was as follows: "I have come thru a terrible experience. . Here in my home, surrounded by my family and the friends and associations I have loved since I was a boy, I am being fully restored. Those who are wise in matters of this sort assure me that the darkness that overtook me in the midst of my day's work was a provision of nature to save me from a serious collapse. Those wno meet me in the future, therefore, will be able to Judge of my mental clarity. the past will not believe that I have been a quitter. For the generous and Wilfulness of many dear friends In these hours of Buffering! vice and without consent of his at and in the main truthful and fair treatment accorded me by the public pres3, I cherish abiding gratitude. In eo far as there has been untrue and unfair comment I forgive its authors itnil accent it as the cost of a life opent in battle for causes I hold dear. All that I ask for the future is Judg ment upon the facts of my way and work from day to day." . GLASS PEEDICTS TRIUMPH Washington. Quick senate ap- tending physicians.
