in review before the state ana vitu
ing national officers, these veteran
acknowledged the salute.
The parade this year showed
rank much thinner than the waves
that awept by the reviewing Hand at
tail year' encampment. Death
stalked heavily among the posts of
the Nebraska department during the
year, while many of those who
marched a year ago have grown
, feebler and wer? compelled to ob
aerve instead of participate.
Lined at Salute.
The parade swung Into the main
thoroughfaies at 10: JO a. ni. The
' line of march was outlined through
the heart of the city where veteran
of later wan were lined at salute.
Boy Scoutt aerved ai escorts and
i achool children lent their homage
with exerciiet and waving of flag.
Between 10:30 and 11:30 waa most
ly a downtown holiday and employe
were freed to applaud the veteran.
The state house wa closed from 10
until I.
The women folk, for the most
part members of auxiliary forces
here in reunion with their parent or
ganization, were conspicuous in the
throng.
Following the parade, the veterans
retired to the auditorium where pre
sentation of a flag by the W. R. C. to
the Lincoln High achool was made,
as well as a portrait of Abraham
Lincoln by Ladies of the. Q. A. R.

from the house postoffice appro
priation bill but which has been re- !
instated by the.- senate. It is ex
pected this will be done.
. Rules Are Necessary.
Other plans are- on foot to de
velop this branch of the service.
One of them is" the establishment of
a bureau of aeronautics in the De
partment of : Commerce, already
provided for in a. bill now before
. congress. It will be the duty of
this bureau to work out rules of fly
ing, rule for the licensing of pilots,
establishment of air ways, etc. Only
approximately, twp states now have
rules governing the licensing of
pilots, and it is felt no success can
be attained in aviation until a na
tional law governing tftis important
- phase of flying has been enacted. .
A bill by Representative Stcener-
son, chairman of the committee on
postoffice and post roads, provides
that more money may be charged
for aerial transportation of mail
than for railway transportation. At
present the charge must be identi-
cal, which is good for the railroads
but bad for the air service.
A chamber of commerce of aero
nautics has been established in
, Washington which will be a renewal
of the activities of the Aero Club of
America,-whose task it will be to
encourage popular interest in avia
tion. ' - '
j Will Use Dirigibles.
The government also is planning to
- make - further experiments with
lighter than air ships. Two ships of
this kind are now being built for
the government, one at Lakehurst
and another by Germany for this
country on the reparations , charge.
Both will be ready within a year
and will be as large as the Roma, de
stroyed near : Norfolk, and the
. ZR-2, destroyed in Britain on its trial
trip. The government is now en
Urging its supply of helium, a non
explosive gas, in order to prevent
. explosions m the future. Expert
i ments wiil be made . to make these
' ships commercialy profitable. While
- plans are hazy at present, it is ex
' pected these ships will be put on the
transcontinental route and Omaha
will be on their time table.
Investigations-conducted bv the
Postoffice department in Europe
V show that this, country is ahead of
i Europe so far as postal transporta
. tion is concerned, but is behind in
the transportation of passengers and
freight. European governments are
maintaining passenger and freight
planes today by means of subsidies
Every country is in the race for the
" - development of this service because
of the important bearing; it has on
. national defense. Only by commer
cial development, it is believed, can
v-this country keep pace with war do
velopments in other countries. .

Political Activities in Third

Former Editor Re
' signed Post.
Lincoln, May 10. The New State,
weekly organ of the progressive
party and Nonpartisan league in Ne
braska, will support only candidates
for political office who publicly en
dorse the platform adopted by the
new party at Grand Island, accord
ing to a policy adopted by the
board of directors, elected in a re
cent referendum of stockholders.
C. A. Sorenson. who took over
the paper' management upon the
resignation of C F. Ansley, who
edited the paper at a salary of $3,500
a year tor several months, will be
virtually superseded in control, ac
cording to Frank H. Coffey, one of
the committee appointed by Harry
M. Lux, state manager of the non
partisan league,' to employ an editor-
manager. - ., '
The -chief objection to Sorenson
arose from his 'efforts to get J. N.
Norton to file for governor as a
progressive and democratic candi
date. It was charged openly in Lin
coln that Sorenson was endeavoring
to break the third party in an effort
to nominate R. B. Howell for United
States senator on the republican
ticket.
Sorenson was the only man who
had access to the Nonpartisan league
mailing list. J. H. Edmisten, third
party chairman, stated two weeks
ago that at no time had Sorenson
placed this list in the hands of third
party leaders, although openly he
endorsed the third party. Sorenson
asserted that he had never given the
list to third party leaders or man
agers of the R. B. Howell campaign.

ployes from the jurisdiction Of the
labor board, as was contended in
the ndiana Harbor Belt case, "then
the entire transportation act can be
nullified and the will of the congress
of the United States set at naught."
''Congress endeavored to provide
a method of adjustment for railway
labor disputes in the transportation
act by providing for conferences be
tween employers and employes. When
the act speaks of employes, it un
doubtedly contemplates those en
gaged in the customary work of !
operating the railroads. It is absurd
to say that carriers and their em
ployes would not be permitted to in
terrupt commerce by labor .contro
versies unless the operation of the
roads was turned over to contrac
tors, in-which event the so-called
contractors and the tailway workers
might engage in industrial warfare
ad libitum. - '-:
A strike' by the employes of con
tractor or contractor-agent of a car
rier would as effectually result in the
interruption of traffic as if the men
were the direct employes of the car
rier.", ' The board pointed out that the
public would be' deprived -of protec
tion against strikes if employes of a
railroad contractor were not placed
under the board's jurisdiction as well
asbona tide railway employes.

Hot Water Bottles Eaten
. Up by Acid in Moonshine
Huntington, W. Va., May 10. The
vogue of the hot-water bottle as a
conveyer of illicit liquor, quite ex
tensive in this section for several
weeks past, is waning. The reason
is, according to Police Chief Britton.
that the acid in the crudely-distilled
product disintegrates the rubber,
while the liquor absorbs a "rubber
ish", taste that proves ruinous to the
bootlegger and the selling qualities
of the moonshine.

report on the investigation made by
a committee appointed by the special

and are daily Increasing their out
put toward 8.000.000 weekly ton

supply of bituminous coal Mr. Mor
row placed at 47,000,000 ton.
Output Increasing.
"In West Virginia," he said, "prac
tically a much coal is being mined
by nonunion men during tin strike
a wa mined during a similar period
by both union and nonunion mine
in the itate in 1920."
Mr. Morrow declared the operator
are opposed to any form of na
tionalization of the coal industry.
When John L. Lewis, president of
the United Mine Workers, speak of
nationalization of the mines, he
speak of nationalizing your indus
try, he told the manufacturers, "fie
speaks of nationalizing the industry
of the consumers."
Cost Would Be Higher
"The government cannot correct
over-development and fun the coal
mines any better than the operators
can, ne continued, inere u not
any one alive who could estimate the
increased cost of coal that would re
sult under government ownership.
If the present strike i won by the
miners, manufacturer will either pay
more for coal under union control or
they will be buying from nonunion
producers. And today they are en
tering the competitive market and
selling coal at from $1 to $2 a ton
cheaper than union dominated mines
can put it on the market.
"Every great competitive industry
in the United States is over devel
oped. That is the guarantee of the
consumer of any product in this coun
try that he can get what he wants
under reasonable conditions as to
price and delivery. Whenever an
American industry becomes over
developed it then is immediately
charged with Being a monopoly.
