Enforced Idleness in
Germany a Problem;
Men Do Boys' Work
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
BERLIN. Aug. 27.-War hits brought in
Jts train, widespread Involuntary Idlcnete.
Factories ar clwainr down -or running
short-handed and the pinch of non-employment
Is felt everywhere among the
working cleaves. .
Symptorm; of it are seen In the numbers
of workingmen appearing on the streets
as newsboys or seeking other unusual
employment and In the heavy calls for
assistance from the municipal and labor
fund.
Some trades, however, are affected in
the oppoHitn direction, tinkers and butch
ers are being advertised for, no many
having been culled into field service with
the troops that (or a time Interruption in
the city's supply of bread and meat was
feared.
Brewers are also in demand, the brew
eries being in full operation to supply
the increased cemand from the cafes and
restaurants where the public gather to
await the war news and saddlers, tailors
and carpenters are working overtime to
supply the needs of the army.
The bodies of the dead in this war are
not, with occnElonal exceptions, returned
to their relatives, but are buried on the
field and where numbers require It, are
buried in common grave. Valuables, pat
ers and mementos are taken from bodies
and made up in little packets to be sent
to the relatives, and the dead soldiers,
each wrapped In his canvas shelter tent,
as ehroud, are laid, friend and foe, side
by side. In long trenches In the ground for
which tbey have contested.
The great number of prisoners of war
taken by the Germans in the early bat
tles of the war already constitute a prob
lem for the home authorities. They are
being quartered In correnlration camps.

cars.

elsewhere, everything on the Omaha mar

hours of the session of the exchange, the
September wheat selling at 81.03 1.11.
as against ll.14Vol.16H In Chicago.

while the Chicago prices were 741((r76lse.
The Chicago option on December wheat
ranged from $1.16 1.21ft, with May from
11.24 to $1.29.

For the third time the Hupp Motor Car Company has produced a car
which, we believe, will prove immeasurably superior to any that
assumes to compete with it.
The first Hupmobile 20 made for itself, and held against all rivalry,
an immense following, at home and abroad.
The "32" put the Hupmobile into another class, and surpassed the
"20" in world-wide popularity.
The new Hupmobile bids fair to eclipse them both, as the very utmost
a motorist can desire.
A highly specialized, individualized, Hupmobilized motor car, which
gives you, we believe, more service and comfort for your money
than you can find if you comb the market a dozen times over.
Listen to the details:
More Power
Motor, 3-inch bore by 64 -Inch
stroke; cylinder cat en bloc, with
water Jacket space between bar
rel; valves l4-lnch clear diam
eter, mushroom tappets, with spe
cial shape cams, very quiet, valve
spring chamber closed by oil-tight
cover, so that contacts are made In
an oil bath. New shape combus
tion chamber, larger valves and
larger cylinder bore produce more
power. Multiple disc, clutch, with
thirteen 13-inch plates.
New Type Carburetor
Horizontal type bolted directly to
cylinder block. Gas passage be
tween cylinders, so that intake
manifold Is heated its entire
length, assuring complete vapor
isation of even the heaviest gaso
line. Improved Oiling
A system already highly efficient
made still better. Pressure feed
from fly-wheel to main bearings
, and connecting rod bearings; cyl
inder walls lubricated by mist
from crankshaft.
