WINTER WHEAT
ACREAGE SHORT
Vice Chairman Coupland of
Defense Council Calls Atten
tion of Nebraska Farmers
to Crop Situation.
(From s Staff Correspondent )
Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 1. (Special.)
The acreage of winter wheat will fall
far below the normal, according to
Vice Chairman Coupland of the State
Council of Defense, who has been in
conference with C. T. Neal of Oma
ha, government buyer for this state.
Mr. Coupland is anxious that farm
ers should understand the situation
thoroughly and look after the con
servation of the present supply of
spring wheat scattered over the eastern
and central portion of the state. There
is a quantity of spring wheat in Or.ia
ha elevators, but it is essential that the
wheat out in the state be saved so that
it will not be shipped to Omaha and
then have to be shipped back again.
Mr. Neal says the government will
allow the farmers 15 per cent above
the government price if they will hold
the seed wheat until it is needed, and
Mr. Coupland is anxious that all par
ties out in the state who have spring
wheat good for seeding purposes
should at once notify the State Council
of Defense, so that when the time
comes to sow wheat that parties want
ing it may know where it can be
had.

"Indiscreet" by Mayfield
(From a Staff Correspondent)
Lincoln, Nov. 1. (Special.) The
state constitution is "out of date," the
statutes are "unworkable" and now
insubordination is declared to be "in-
discreetness" under the present demo
cratic regime in this state.
A tew days ago Commissioner Mav-
field had occasion to say that some
St. Joseph, Mo., Nov. 1. Charles F.
Wineinger, who confessed that he
murdered WiHiam C. Goold, his for
mer business partner, last Friday,
pleaded guilty in the criminal court
today and was sentenced to the peni
tentiary for life. Wineinger placed all
his property, valued at several thou
sand dollars, in trust for Goold's four
children.
Mrs. Maud S. Goold this morning
was formally charged with having
been an accomplice of Charles F.
Wineinger fa the murder of her hus
band, William C. Goold, proprietor of
the Worth-While garage, early Friday
morning.
A warrant charging Mrs. Goold
with being an accessory to the crime
was issued today. Wineinger is
charged ivith murder in the first de
gree in a warrant issued after his con
fession. In Wineinger's confession fie tried
every way to shield Mrs. Goold, the
police say, and hi: chiei aim appeared
to be to give the impression that she
had nothing to do with the murder.
However, from her own statements
and from the actions of Wineinger
and Mrs. Goold preceding the murder,
as learned by the police from letters
that passed between the two, the
police believe Mrs Goold knew be
forehand the killing of her husband
was contemplated and actually had a

of the superintendents of state in-1 principal wholesale factories here to-
stitutiAns were not handling the coal
situation rightly. Taking the charge

Commissioner Mayfrcld to be simolv

It is said that the arrangement un

was to furnish coal to the institu
tions is not panning out verv satis
factorily and Warden Fenton has
been compelled to go on the open
market and buv two cars of coal to

per thousand for men and $1.50 for

and. $7.50 for girls. Unless the scale
is granted Ihe workers say they will
walk out at 1 o'clock tomorrow. The
claim is made by all workers on 5
cent goods, and the walkout, if it
occurs, may also involve workers on
better grades. Hastings is the largest
cigar manufacturing point in the
country west of the Missouri and the
entire wholesale output is threatened.
The employers say it is imoossible to
grant the increase without raising the
price to a o-cent retail basis.

Thirty Machines in Attack

London, Nov. 1. Light persons
were killed and 21 others were injured
in the German air raid last night, ac
cording to an official statement issued
today by the Britjsli war department.
London, Nov. 1. About 30 air
planes in seven groups took part in
last nieht's air raid. Three of them
penetrated to the heart of London,
says an official report today. The
casualties and damage were slight
A reoort from Lord French, com
mander of the home defenses, says
the German aviators took advantage
of the clouds to prevent any decisive
engagements.
Bombs Are Dropped.
The first group of air raiders drop
ped bombs near the coast. Two more
groups were broken up by a barrage
on the southeastern outskirts of the
metropolis. The fourth group was
turned back up the Thames half way
to London.
Of the fifth group one or more air
planes penetrated southeastern Lon
don. Some of the sixth group
reached the southeastern part of the
city. The seventh gioup was dis
persed before it reached the outer de
fenses of the city. .
The official announcement follows:
"Determined and repeated attacks
were made upon London last night by
groups of hostile aircraft. The first
group of raiders crossed the Kentish
coast at about 10:40 p. m. and pro
ceeded toward London over Kent.
They did not penetrate far inland,
however, but turned in an easterly di
rection and dropped bombs at various
places near the coast.
Sky Covered by Clouds.
"Meanwhile two more groups of
raiders were steering toward London
along the south bank of the Thames.
The sky was half covered with thin,
low clouds, which rendered extremelv
difficult observation of the enemy ma
chines. Nonetheless, the altitude was
correctly measured and they were
broken up by barrage fire on the
southeastern skirts of the metropoli
tan area at about 11:50 p. m., where
some bombs were dropped.
"The fourth group of machines,
which came along the Thames estu
ary, was turned back about half way
to London. Meanwhile the fifth group
crossed the Essex coast at about 12:15
a. m. and steered toward London by
way of the north bank of the Thames.
Some of these raiders were turned
back by the outer defenses, but one
or more penetrated into southeast
London, where bombs were dropped."
Dispersed by Gunfire.
"The sixth group followed along
the same course about a quarter of
an hour later. Some of these ma
chints penetrated into the southeast
Outskirts of London, where some
bombs were dropped.
"Meanwhi e one or more enemy ma
chines dopped bombs in the south
western outskirts of London. The
seventh gr..up, which approached
?iong the sou h b?nk ot the J names,
was dispersed by gunfire before
teaching the outer London defenses.
'n addition, ini.idual raiders at
tacked the Kentish coast between
miili ight and 1:30 o clock. Repor.s
indicate that each group consisted
cf three or four r.ucl ices, the total
number of raidera engaged being
about 30. Of this total only about
thre machines su:cteded in actual!
penetrating into the heart of Lon
don. 'The raiders were harassed by our
gunfire during the whole of their
flight and were also attacked by our
aircraft. The facility with which they
were able to escape observation by
taking advantage of the clouds pre
vented any decisive engagement.
"Full reports have not yet been re
ceived, but those already furnished
point to comparatively light casual-
ties and damage, considering the
number of machines and the deter
mined nature of the attack."

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 1. (Special.)
George W. Norris will be a candidate
for renomination for the United States
senate. He says so himself and that

For some time rumors have been
coming from Washington that the Ne

not be a candidate, but would retire

in Washington or New York.
Senator Norris promptly squelched
the matter today by saying he never

The senator called at the state

Governor Neville. He appeared to be
deeply interested to loam when the

Lieutenant Governor Howard would

A Sure Way To
End Dandruff
There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve it, then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain, .
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need), ap
ply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub .
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and three
or four more applications will com
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it, no
matter how much dandruff you may
have. -
Yon will find all itchinar and die-
ging of the scalp will stop instantly,,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel a hundred times better. Adv.

want our customers to spend their money only for clothing and not to defray our expenses.
We're succeeding. Every day's sales show an increase. Every cus
tomer who buys unconsciously influences his friends to come here. The clothes themselves
act as arguments. Every suit or overcoat is tailored by hand. Every fabric is as true and worthy and excel
lent as though the nation weren't facing a wool shortage. The clothes simply "can't be beat." They are the kind of
clothes you should wear. You actually save $5 and $10 on them.
