These institutions (-are supported, in the main, by allowances from the Army's local home service fund In communities receiving the benefit of the service. The average cost of the care of one such mother with her baby is about $125. The sum of $500 was sent to' the Army's Nebraska home and hospital from the Lincoln Salvation Army 1932 home service fund to be applied toward the care of the seven Lincoln cases served there. Major Reno says: ; "The average age of the mothers served in our Sal vatlon Army institutions last year was about 16 years. Girls of the age of 13 and 14 were not unusual and a numberyof '12 year old girl moth ers were cared for. 'Most of these I am not inclined to feel are bad girls at heart. The greater number of them, I would say, rather are victims 'of neglect, victims of somebody's failure when most they needed kindly, sympathetic guidance in their lives. "Some of them in their bewilder ment and despair come even from the brink of a suicide's, grave, lashed by the whisperings of their own con science and the remarks of acquain tances. Many of them turn to the Army, after parents have made fur ther stay in j their homes intolerable. "Our first step in their rehabili tation is to have them know that somebody cares what becomes of them, to lead them from despair into avenues of hope and a new grip ou life. We would not condone their wrong,' neither would we condemn them for the failure or betrayal on the part of others far better quali fied than they ito , have saved them trom tneir plight. "There ' are two things . we . ask every girl to promise when she. enters one of our Institutions -to stay with us long enough that we may serve her needs and those of her child and that, if at all practicable, with our help, she will keep her baby. This last promise we ask her to make be cause we believe that God often works thru mother love for the regeneration of these mothers. Helplessness and dependence on her warms into life in the mother's heart a love that will not let her baby go, a determination to Work and live for her child." MBS.

Under the economy plan instituted by the navy department last month, the sub-stations Avithin the state of Nebraska for the purpose of selecting recruits from outlying communities. were to b closd and thaoiemfwet were to be closed and the main sta tion at Omaha skeletonized. In short, recruiting from the states of Nebras ka and Sputh Dakota for the navy jwas to be summarily stopped. Since the closing of these stations, however, the plan has been revised to the extent that both states remain open as a field for navy recruiting and all Nebraska sub-stations, i. e.; North Platte, Hastings and Lincoln; are to be reopened .and resume re cruiting. The South Dakota sub-stations of Huron, Aberdeen, Water town, and Sioux Falls, are also open, and ready to receive applicants. The Omaha main office, about June 26th. removes to the post .office building. Council Bluffs, Iowa, and all recruits accepted by the Nebraska sub-stations will be sent to the Council Bluffs office for actual enlistment and final examinations. The monthly quota of men ; to be enlisted by this district will, in all probability, bo forty-five . men per month. This means that many young men .between the ages of 17 and 25, will have an opportunity to enlist in the navy if physically and mentally qualified and the unemployment sit uation will be helped to a consider able extent. It is expected that the first quota of men will be enlisted on or after July 20th. However, receipt of ap plications at substations and at the main station ,1s to begin immediately in order to acertain which men are In all respects eligible for the navy and to place their names on the navy eligibility list so that when actual calls for enlistment are sent out the choice will not be limited to the few onw on the list. . t lilililii!lllllll!IIIiliraiilllllllli!EIIIIIIIII!liB!llll!ll!! 1 WEDNESDAY SPECIALS m a a a a A Blend Coffee, per lb. ........ 3 lbs. for 55 Peaches, syrup pack, 2 large cans. .20 IGA Brand No. 2y2 Can Catsup, 14-oz. bottle. ....... .10 Pork and Beans, large can ........ 0 First Prize No. 2y2 Can Corned Beef, 12-oz. tin. . . .10 Libby or IGA Brand Sweet Potatoes, large can Windmill No. 2y2 Size Hominy, large cans, 2 for 15 .

Beverage with 11 Alcohol is Being Favored Major Dalrymple Tells House Com mittee the Measure Would Curb Bootlegging, Make Revenue drank enough of it you would get a skin full; I'm sure it would." To support his contention there was greater respect for the law now because of liberalization. Dalrymple said he was the head of prohibition in six states under the Wilson ad ministration and that then "the peo ple would not co-operate." Brewers Lend a Hand "Now we get the co-operation of all classes," he continued, "even brew ers. They are willing and anxious to help enforce the law, because they feel that a violator is escapng a tax and thus penalizing them. Because of that, I believe we can get more convictions. "I do believe, too, that there I3 less drunkenness than there was in the days before liberalization. If my con viction is correct, beer is causing the sale of less hard liquor than before. Of course, we know it is very diffi cult to get intoxicated on this 3.2 per cent beer." "Dalrymple testified that 50,000 persons were directly dependent up on the grape industry and "hundreds EN ROUTE TO THE EAST . Washington, June ?.

Asked by Representative McCor- mack, of - Masachusetts, -democrat, what revenues would accrue if the eighteenth amendment were repeal ed, Dalrymple replied: .. "That Is hard to say. Of course we would have competition from im ports, but If the tariff were high enough we might be able to raise considerable revenue, 'Personally, I am unalterably op posed to repeal of the eighteenth amendment, but I think liberalization is the thing. I am not absolutely con vinced that repeal would materially increase revenues. Liberalization will.
