a stptement during her address by Na
tional President Pennybacker.
M Inmnic liable.
Jlr. Pennybacker declared that thou
i. . - .. aie dying each year be-
tHUse of ignorance and lack of care. She
n outlined plans for making better
citizens out of Immigrants, a problem
which the women's clubs will take up
later. This Immigration plan, she said,
will include co-operation of women'a
clubs and the immigration offllcals.
The women's club In the city to which
the Immigrants are headed should be noti
fied by wire and should be on hand to
welcome the new citlsens to the country.
The greatest Immigration question, she
Bald, is that the immigrants are thrown
among the hardest class of citizens after
they leave the protection of the govern
ment In New York.
In another address the national presi
dent talked on rural schools, declaring
that radical rforms were needed. She
claimed that efficient teachers will not
teach In rural schools because the condi
tions surrounding the work are wrong.
The country women, she Bald, can correct
'.hem wrongs.
Cleanup Campaign
Urged by Governor
In Proclamation
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
UlNOOIN. Sept. 29. (Special.) Gov
ernor Morehead today Issued a procla
mation asking Nebraakans to Join in a
clean-up campaign on October 9 to for
ward flre-preventlon work. The procla
mation follows:
"The Safety First Federation of Amer
ica haa designated Saturday, October 9.
as the day to Impress up the minds of
all of the people the need of co-operation
to prevent the loas of life and property
by fire. The toll exacted by the fires
In the country Is enormous, being in
round numbers S236.000.0UO In the year of
1914. Much of this loss Is caused by
carelessness on the part of the people,
their failure to observe ordinary care
and caution In handling and disposing of
inflammable and combustible substances.
In order that this waste be reduced to
the minimum, I. as governor, recommend
that on October all public buildings,
factories and homes be thoroughly
cleansed of rubbish accumulations.
"That all heating, lighting and fire
extinguishing' apparatus be examined,
and if found defective, promptly repaired.
"That fire drills be held in all schools,
factories and other places where fire
escapes are established.
"That lectures be given in all pub'le
schools on Friday, October 8, by repre
sentatives of the fire departments on the
common hazard of fire and where such
officials are not available that teachers
be urged to give fcuch instructions as ,
they may have at their command on the
subject. I
"The latest estimate of the loss by I
fire in the I'nlted States and Canada
for 1914 waa -"36,5ai.3M. Reasonable cau- ,
tlon and the adoption of protective
measures would have greatly reduced '
this enormous total.

"Governor.

Fire Chief Clement
Shoulders the Blame
In Motor Purchase
(From a Btaff Correspondent.) j
LINCOLN, Sept. 29. (Special.) Fire
Chief Henry Clements of the Lincoln fire
department today shouldered all blam ,
should any attach, over the purchase of
an alleged worthless automobile truck by
the public safety department. The coun
cil yesterday in extraordinary session
heard charges preferred by Judge W. II.
England that the city had paid two tor
an automobile not worth to exceed $J0 at
the most liberal estimate. The purchase
was made from H. Kemplln, a member
of the fire department, but through A
third party.'
Chief Clements admitted he had ap
proved the purchase and aald he had
urged it as a means of saving the city.
He admitted he had received fG5 from
Kemplln, but said it was in payment of
a debt which Kemplln had been owing
him for two years, when the chief loanod
Kemplln money to build a home.
The present agitation, the fir chief
said, was an attempt to besmirch Com
missioner Wright and Mayor Bryan and
a No d'le to the efforts of disappointed
automobile owners who wanted to sell
a machine to the city.
He said he would produce proof at the
proper time that the city kA t$ money's
worth.
