' Real Point in Controversy Re
fusal of Company, to Sign
Contract, General Coun
sel Webster Says.
Washington; July 30. (Special Tel
egram.) John Lee Webster, general
counsel, and R. A. Leussler,, assistant
general manager of the Omaha and
Council Bluffs Street Railroad com-
pany, were given opportunity today
by William Howard Taft and Frank
P. Walsh of the national war labor
board to review the testimony taken
recently before Examiners Swing and
Ledwick in the case of certain em
ployes and the Omaha Street Rail
way company at Kansas City on July
17, 18 and 19.
Mr. Webster, who did the talking
for the company, was accorded most
courteous treatment; . Mr. Taft fre
quently interrupted the oral argument
by asking counsel to amplify state
ments made in support of the com
pany's contention that it had been
more than fair in its treatment of its
employes, the whole question revolv
ing around the company's failure to
' recognize the union, '
In Mr. Webster' opinion the real
point ' in controversy between the
anion, and the company was the re
fusal of the company to sign the con
' tract with the union, which is not a
Tjatter submitted to arbitration,
- Mr. Webster stated that an increase
of wages asked for by the union in
its statement filed in. the case bears
date of July 15, 1918, and its presen
tation to the examiners was the first
, notice the company had of the de
mand for an increase; that it was
not a demaad presented to the com
..'.v pany. ;.,..
Mr. Webster said the company was
financially . unable to grant any in
crease of wages; that its operating
" expenses have already increased $933,
000 per year and that there will be
under present conditions an annual
deficit of $309,850 and to grant the
increase of wages would create an
annual deficit of $759,850, which
would mean foreclosure of a mort
gage oh the property and bankruptcy.
'It is expected a decision will be
rendered in ' the case not later than

By FRANK STOCKBRIDCE.
(Former Managing Editor of tha Evening
Mall.)
To a" newspaper man the most in
teresting and the funniest things that
happened during Dr. Rumely's con
trol of the EveninK Mail were events
involving the technique and practice
of newspaper niakine. rather than the
manifold manifestations of a point of
view on his part that was anything
but neutral. I shall try to resist as
far as possible the inclination to
burden' this narrative with tales of
technical blunders and absurdities
that would have wrecked the prop
erty even as the M. Rumely company
had been wrecked had it not been
tor a constant, steady inflow of new
capital.
It was the same storv over, again,
of an effort to impose a mass of new
and untried ideas or ideas that were
old and had been discarded by expe
rienced newspaper men- on a busi
ness that wasn't strontr enough to
stand them. I think the books of the
Mail and Express company will bear
me out in the assertion that if Dr.
Rumely had carried out his oft re
peated threat to go to Germany, and
had stayed there, for a year, the
newspaper would have made a profit
in 1916 instead of a loss of $150,000
or so.
Just as in the management of the'
Rumely company at l a Porte. "Dr.
Rumely in the Evening Mail scattered
new ideas right and left, demanding
their instant execution, expecting im
mediate resutts and deftly slipping
the blame to others for their failure.
Those who refused to be made the
"goats" were promptly and bitterly
accused of conspiracy to undermine
his authority, of failure to "follow
through" or of inability to do team
work. And as in the Rumely com
pany, the place was infested with a
constant procession of "experts." Ap
parently any one who could speak
German and claimed to be an "ex
pert" in any phase of the printing or
publishing business could gain and
hold the doctor's ear and get a trial
for his scheme.
Dream of Motion Picture Magazine.
i The Evening Mail had for many
years published an illustrated Satur
day magazine supplement; it was, I
believe, the originator of the Satur
day supplement idea, so far as New
York City is concerned, at least First
came along a motion picture "ex-
Eert",who persuaded the doctor that
e could convert the Saturday maga
zine into a motion picture weekly and
make $100,000 a year with it He
didn't that goes without, saying.
Then a gentleman of Austrian birth
I have forgotten the name, but the
memory of his personality will linger
long was introduced to Dr. Rumely
as the "expert" who would put the
Motion Picture Mail on its feet. He

had made a great success with illus
trated weeklies in Berlin and Munich!
This "expert" made himself such a
nuisance that one department head
after another served notice on Dr.
Kumely that either he would resign
or the man from Vienna must keep
tway from him. Finally the "expert"
disclosed his great scheme for giving
the Motion Picture Mail a million
circulationhe would ornt the pho
tograph of a nude woman on the
front cover of every issue; that was
the way they did it in Germany!
Exit expert. Exit .also, after a
while, the Motion Picture Mail. No
body knows exactly how much
money was lost on it. Everyone on
whom Dr. Rumely tried to 'wish"
the responsibility for its publication
sidestepped with as much grace as
possible in the circumstances. As
near as I was ever able to make out
ty a comparison and averaging of
three totally different sets of figures,
each purporting to represent the ac
tual financial status of the weekly, it
was not losing more than $1.500 ' a
week, when it was discontinued.
Effort to Print Good Newspaper.
Leaving all question of German
propaganda out of consideration for
the moment, there was a decided and
conscious effort from the beginning,
on the part of those, charged with
responsibility for the different de
partments of the newspaper, to make
it the best newspaper possible under
the double handicap of the Doctor'
meddling inefficiency and the stigma
of pro-Germanism which had to be
met and overcome at every turn.
There was the best team work I have
ever seen in any organization.
Mr. Lambin, the first business man
ager under the new regime, had re
fused from the beginning to consider
more than a three months' engage
ment; he had committed himself to
another concern before we found him.
He brought in as his successor Mr.
George H. Larke, an extremely able
and efficient man for the place. The
co-operation between Mr. Larke and
his staff and.myself and my staff was
continuous and complete. When the
question was qne between the best
interests of the paper and some ruinous-
or impractical order from Dr.
Rumely there was no question where
our duty lay. Dr. Rumely was the
nominal head of the organization, the
by-laws providing that the vice-president
should be the executive. We
were both officers and directors of
the company, however, nd on the
books a large stock interest was held,
not in Dr. Rumely's name, but in that
of Walter Lyon.
We did not know Walter Lyon I
am not sure but, I met him once in
Dr. Rumely'a rooms at the Manhattan
and we did not know whether he
represented himself or somebody else.
At any rate as corporation directors
our duty was to the stockholders first,
to say nothing of our duty to our own
reputations as newspaper men. I
d not know how many times Dr.
Rumely charged Mr. Larke and my
self with "conspiring" against him.
Not as many times, f am sure, us we
saved him from costly mistakes or
The outdoor dining room was lined
with hungry spectators, who wished

After the "eats" were finished, the
crowd scattered to the various
amusement centers, and the little
ones were carried off to their homes,

Tha fact that Nuxated Iron is today be
ing used by over three million people an
nually and that so many physiona are
prescribing ft a a tonic, strength and blood
builder in weak, nervous, run-down condi
tions has led to an investigation of its merit
by designated physicians. and others whose
reports should be of greatest imnartaaca
to the publio generally. Among these is tha
statement made by Dr. James Francis Sul
livan, formerly physician of Bellevue Hos
pital (Outdoor Dept). New York, and
Westchester County Hospital, who says:
"When one patient after another began aik
Ins my opinion ot Nuxated Iron. I resolved
to go thoroughly into the subject and find

before prescribing or lending hi endorse

blunders that would have made the
paper ridiculous.1
Mr. Kauri man a Strong Auy.
For a long time Mr. Larke and I
had strong ally in S. Walter Kauff
mann, the lawyer who represented the
controlling interest in the Evening
Mail. ,Mr. Kauffmann always re
ferred to this interest as "my clients;"
naturally, I never asked him who they
were. His clients, however, were ap
parently interested at first in putting
the Evening Mail on a paying basis,
and for a year or so, until he went to
Germany in 1916, he not only backed
iip every reasonable position taken by
either Mr. Larke or myself in oppo
sition to Dr. Rumely's desires, but
apparently was in a position to en
force his decisions upon Dr. Rumely.
After his return from Germany his
power in this respect seemed to have
been curtailed; certainly he exercised
far less control over the internal af
fairs of the Evening Mail than he had
formerly wielded.
It may be gathered from the fore
going that life on the Evening Mail
was not exactly a bed of roses. It
was.' not. And in the editorial end
of the paper using the "term in its
broad sense of including news, "fea
tures" and all other reading matter
the problem was further complicated
by a very definite responsibility, first
to America and American principles
and, second, to the readers of the
newspaper. With Dr. Rumely's con
sent I had 'pledged the paper to the
support of the president in his for
eign policies. i

A modest, smiling American sailor
lad, although enly 23 years of age"
has gone through almost unbelievable
experiences. His story is the most
unique that has thus far come out of
the battlefields of Europe. No man
has seen more of German brutality,
no man h. s suffered .more and come
back to tell of it than Gunner Depew
He tells his story in, the straightfor
ward, simple language of a sailor lad.
yet he brings with him a war message
straight from the heart of the boys
who are now facing the Huns over
his ambition to defeat
German propaganda in this country,
he has published his war experiences
in his book, "Gunner Depew," Yet
this wiry little sailor lad, feeling that
he still had a "bit" more to do, is hur
rying from city to city speaking be
fore crowded houses and imploring
the "stay-at-homes" to back up the
boys over there.

Americans who have lived to come
back to tell us of the wretchedness
and misery of German prison camps,
especially that most infamous of all

FARMER MILLER
SAYS HE BECAME1
UNFIT FOR WORK .
Knees So Stiff With the Rheu
matism He Could Hard- . ,
ly Follow thw
Plow.
"My first bottle of Tanlac did mt
so much good that I got one for my
son and gave another to a friend of
his, and now I've come in to get one
more for myself," said David A
Miller, a well-known farmer, living
near Fort Calhoun, while in Sher
man & McConnell's drug 'store one
day recently.
"For the past three years," he
continued, "I have been afflicted
with rheumatism and other troubles,
and, although I tried medicine after
medicine and had expert advice,
nothing did me a bit of good. Long
ago my appetite failed, and I got so
that everything I forced down would
sour on my stomach and fill me up
with gas till I was miserable for
hours afterwards. My kidneys give
me no end of trouble. My head
ached like it would split and I suf
fered from such terrible neuralgic
pains that I couldn't half sleep at
night My knees were so stiff and
sore with rheumatism that it was all
I could do to follow the plow and I
was so awfully (run-down that I fell
off fifteen pounds in weight. I was
in such a dreadful condition all over
that for two weeks on a stretch I
couldn't do a lick of work and was
not fit for a things
"I read "so much in the 'papers
about Tanlac that I decided to take -a
chance, and what it has don for
me almost surpasses belief. Why,
my appetite is so great that I am
hungry all the time and eat like a
horse. Everything agrees with me
and I don't have a bit of trouble
with gas or indigestion. My kidneys
don't bother me like they did before;
every bit of that rheumatism is gone
out of my system and I can work
hard all day on -my farm, and when
I go to bed I sleep like a log all
night I am gaining in weight every
day and, in fact, my whole system -seemato
be made over by this won
derful Tanlac. I am telling every
body about the way it has straight-
ened me out, for I know it is the
best medicine there is."
