OUT ITEW REGULATIONS
TOE EMPLOYES.
TO BE EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 1
Approximately 800,000 lien, Includ

fected by Changes.
Chicago. Nov. IS. The United
States railroad labor board announc
ed tonight that new working; rule.
for the six shop crafts probably will
be completed and issued in time to
become effective December 1.
Issuance of the rules, under a re
cent decision of the board, paves the
way for consideration of requests,
which may be filed by the roatls for
revision of the shop craft wage sched
ules. The new shop craft rules will af
fect approximately 800.000 men on
all "class-1" railroads in the coun
try. Only ninety-four railroads are
directly concerned in" the present
case, the others not having their
submissions in proper shape when
the case was taken up, but board
members anticipate that all class-1
railroads probably will carry out the
decisions without further bearings.
The beard's statement issued to
night said:
"Such satisfactory progress during
the past week has been made in the
consideration of rules and working
conditions for the six shop crafts
that it is altogether probable that
these rules will be completed and
will become effective December 1."
Maintenance of Way Conies Next
The board members pointed out
tonight that the new rules virtually
have been completed in less than
five months, while the national
agreement, which they supercede, re
quired the attention of railway, gov
ernment and labor representatives
and experts seven months.
The board, it was indicated to
night, will next take up for con
sideration the rules and working
conditions for the maintenance of
ways employees. - There are a large
number of disputed - questions re
garding these rules already before
the board and statisticians have pre
pared most of the cases for pre3enta-

MEET SCHMADER SOON
Georp.e Ijieisou, the Walthill In
dian, cut fhert the mr.in go in the
Cud? by plant boxing program at
South Omsha last night, says the
Wcrld-Herald. v.-he a he planted a
risrht sleep-producer on the chin of
Jack Ivey in the third of a scheduled
ten round bout. Ivey taking the
count. Lamson weighed 184 pounds
and Ivey 11?,.
Larcson is said to be going good
again, and Omaha promoters are
angling for a match between he and
Andy Schmader as soon as Andy is
able to enter the ring, following his
recent injury in -the bout hero with
Soldier Msrples. Schmader began
light workouts at his training quar
ters in Louisville this week and ex
pects to get back into the game be
fore the first of the year.
Mike Itoscoe, South Side pugilist,
earned a technical knockout over
Andy's brother George in the fifth
round of their scheduled six round
go. Roscce will be remembered as
the boy who . kissed the canvass in
the fourth round here under a ter
rific reign of body blows from the
younger Schmader. They have now
met four times, with honors evenly
divided.
Up at Minneapolis, Kid Schlaife,
Ojnnha's Hebrew mitt artist, put the
finishing touches to Gunner Joe
Quinn in the second round of their
ten round bout, the main event of
the Minneapolis show. Schlaifer is
credited with knocking Quinn to the
canvass four times in that round,
before the " game northerner would
take the count. Schlaifer is well
known--here and has a considerable
following among local boxing fans.
HAS COLLAR BONE BE0KE
During the Plattsmouth-Auburn
football game yesterday afternoon.
John Ptak, half back of the local
high school team, had his right
shoulder injured and his collar bone
fractured. John has been one of the
mainstays of the team and since the
injury of Louis Svoboda a few weeks
ago, has been the chief factor n the
offensive plaj-s of the team. The in
jury to these two players has badly
crippled the team for the remainder
of its schedule.

formed by the staff under the direc
tions of Captain H. H. Cheyney,

ally a number of the visitors spoke
and none failed to compliment the
work of the splendid degree staff.
Mrs. Katie Houser, of Unedia
lodge. Silver City, and delegate of
Mills county lodges to the Rebekah
state assembly, made a report of the
work done at the meeting in October,
As was announced before hand, the

GET YOUR CERTIFICATE?
HERE'S REASON, MAYBE
In reply. to a querry as to why a
number of local men entitled to re
ceive state service certificates, did
not have theirs included In the ship
ment sent to the Legion post here fcr
distribution. Adjutant General Paul
advises that the certificates were
sent to the address given on the
men's army service record as their
home town, and says it will be
necessary for them to write to the
American Legion post of that town
to have the same forwarded.
Some of the men who chose to call
our neighboring suburb to the north
their home town, now face the propo
sition of getting their certificates
through the Omaha post of the Am
erican Legion, for regardless of the
draft board or any other circum
stance, the certificates were sent out
to the address claimed by the man as
home, during the time he was in ser
vice. Any Nebraska soldier who has
not yet received his certificate should
think just where he told 'em to put
him down from on the service rec
ord and then get in touch with the
Legion officials of that place.
Adjutant Paul also advises that
the certificates of officers have not
been issued as yet, but will be forth
coming later.
VISITED AT HOSPITAL
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Jochim, Mrs.
George Vogler, Mrs. Frank Riester
and Mrs. John Scheel drove to Lin
coln last Sunday to visit with Mrs.
Henry Jochim and little daughter,
Dorothy, of Tecumseh. who are at
the hospital in Lincoln.
The little girL. who is three years
old, underwent an operation last
week for appendicitis and has been
in a very serious condition. The ap
pendix had burst before she could be
gotten to the hospital but under the
care of a special nurse, and with
her mother assisting in the care of
her, she is doing very well, but is
not considered entirely out of dan
ger. Mrs. Jochim's many friends in
this vicinity will be sorry to learn of
the little girl's illness and hope for
a . favorable report, in the near fu
ture. While at the hospital, the Louis
ville visitors had the pleasure of
meeting Miss Iva Seybert, a former
popular Louisville girl, who Is now
living at Havelock with her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Seybert, and Is
taking a training course for nurses
at the St. Elizabeth's hospital in
Lincoln. She is getting along nicely
and likes her chosen work very much.
She was pleased to meet old friends
from home and sent her regards to
those in Louisville. Louisville Cour

A SCORE OF 20 TO 0
Yesterday afternoon the Auburn
high school football team- journeyed
up to our peaceful little city and af
ter a short contest on the local grid
iron, returned homeward with the
scalps of the Plattsmouth team dang
ling from their belts, having won by
the score of 20 to 0.
In the opening the visitors kicked
off and Chase returned the ball for
twenty-five yards, but on downs the
locals failed to advance and on a
pass the visitors brought the ball in
to the Plattsmouth territory and
with a series of line drives and end
runs were able to push over the first
touchdown 'in the .opening ten min
utes of play-' and' also kicked goal. In
the second quarter the locals stiffen
ed their resistance and the Auburn
eleven were unable to do anything in
the scoring line.
In the last half the Auburn team
uncovered a - very clever fake play
that ' allowed ' them to put over an
other touchdown and they were able
to score a second time in the last
quarter. r
John Ptak of the local team suffer
ed a severe dislocation of the right
collar bone during the game that will
keep him out for some time.

pital with Mrs. Allie Meisinger, who

BOOZE TRANSPORTER
GETS CAUGHT HERE
Fred Guhther, Giving Residence as
Otoe County, Parts with $100
and Costs This Morning
Last evening when most of the
weary householders were - wending
their way homeward to seek their
! downy couch. Sheriff C. D. Quinton
was called out to the government
highway south of this city, where a
supposed liquor runner was reported
to be heading south. The sheriff se
cured the assistance of Chief ,of
Police Jones and they motored out in
that direction and there captured one
Fred Gunther, who gave his habita
tion as Otoe county. In the car the
officers discovered ten gallons of the
best Omaha brand of hootch, guaran
teed to supply many a tempting glass
to the thirsty of Otoe county, but
which alas will not reach its desti
nation as the Cass county sheriff con
fiscated the booze along with the car
of .the gentleman transporting it.
This morning Mr. Gunther was ar
raigned in the county court before
Judge Allen J. Beeson and entered
a plea of guilty to transportation of
liquor and accordingly ,was given a
tine or $100 and costs, as well as
having his car sold. The gentle
man paid the fine and went on his
way, but not rejoicing.
THE SUPREME COURT
REVERSES DAVIS CASE
In the Case of Theodore R. Davis,
et al, vs. Ruby L. Davis and
Barbara Davis.
In the case of Theodore R. Davis,
et al. vs. Ruby L. Davis et al, ap
pealed to the state supreme court
from the decision of the Cass coun
ty district court, was decided at Lin
coln yesterday by the state tribunal
in favor of the defendants and the
action of the district court reversed.
This matter grows out of the set
tlement of the estate of John H.
Davis, deceased, formerly a well
known resident of near Weeping
Water, the deceased having left a
will giving all his property, real and
personal to his widow, Barbara Dav
is, and among the heirs were Philip
S. Davis, a son, who has since that
time passed away leaving as his heir,
a" widow.. Ruby L. Davis. The case
was tried here in May 1920 and at
which time the plaintiffs were
awarded the estate. The defendants
through Byron Clark and Jesse L.
Root of Omaha and W. A. Robert;
son of this city, prosecuted an ap
peal to the state supreme court and
secured a quite a notable victory in
the reversal of the case.
The one-eighth interest of the de
fendant. Ruby L. Davis in the es
tate will be in the neighborhood of
$40,000.

HERE DESIGNATED BY PERSH
ING, PLEADS FOR RED CROSS
Universal renewal of American
Red Cross support by membership is
urged by Sergeant Woodhill, official
ly selected by General Pershing as
an outstanding hero of the A. E. F.
"Ever since' returning to this
country I have been impressed with
the continuing necessity of the pres
ent work of the American Red Cross,
particularly for the disabled veter
ans," says Sergeant Woodfill. "In ad
dition to the friendly services for
the men in the hospitals more than
2,300 chapters 1n a smany cities and
towns, I am told, are serving dis
abled men in many friendly ways.
"All this work is most necessary
in backing up what the government
;1s-ioing for the disabled and I hope
that the people of the country,-- by
I becoming members-of the Red Cross
I during the present, annual Jtoli Call
will help It so en until tn need is
over." I

CRANDALL TO HAVE
CHARGE OF BUREAU
Headquarters of Federal Veteran's
.Bureau For Eastern Neb. and
Western la., in Omaha.
Leona A. Crandall, formerly in
charge of the Lincoln office of the
federal board for vocational educa
tion, has been placed in charge of the
consolidated offices located at 701
Woodmen of the World building at
Omaha. That city is now headquar
ters of the government veterans' bu
reau for eastern Nebraska and ten
counties of western Iowa.
C. M. McCarger, who has been in
charge of the vocational training bu
reau at Omaha, remains at the head
of this division embracing the ex
tended territory. Mr. Crandall has
taken a home at 4855 Burt street.
"It means better service for the
state," said Mr. Crandall. "We have
taken nothing from Lincoln and add
ed little to Omaha, the consolidation
being that of administration. Leland
Towle has been left in charge of the
Lincoln office to handle matter;!
arising in that area as heretofore.
The consolidation means, Mr.
Crandall explained, that instead of
having the work in this area under
two offices, it will hereafter all be
directed out of the Omaha office.
There are now approximately 900
ex-service men receiving vocational
training In the area with 1,700 still
eligible. Seven field men will work
out: of the Omaha office, interview
ing these men and explaining to
them their privileges under the bu
reau's plan. " , .. .-. "'.!
REINSTATEMENT OF
INSURANCE URGED
December 31st Last Date on Which
This May be Done, IT. S. War
Vets' Bureau Advises
December 31, 1921, is the last date
that reinstatement' of War Risk In
surance can be made. All ex-service
men can reinstate their government
insurance up until that date, regard
less of how long it has lapsed, pro
viding they comply with certain re
quirements, varying from the mere
statement of the applicant that he is
in good health to a full medical ex
amination where the lapsed time is
over six months.
At least two monthly premium
payments on the amount reinstated
must accompany the application,
one for the first lapsed month, dur
ing which the applicant was protect
ed on his former policy.
Men disabled in the service may
reinstate only 6n the payment of all
back premiums and interest thereon
at 5 per cent, compounded annually
from date of each premium.
The time is getting short only
six weeks remain in which the op
portunity to reinstate will be avail
able. A comparatively small number of
Plattsmouth ex-service men are con
tinuing their government insurance,
although the rate and convertible op
tions are features that make it high
ly desirable. If you are desirious of
reinstating before fhe expiration of
this time limit, get in touch with
American Legion officials at once,
who will furnish you with the neces
sary application blanks.
The American Legion convention
at Kansas City passed a resolution
urging congress to permit reinstate
ment of government insurance up to
five years from date of discharge,
but there is no certainty of this be
ing favorably acted upon, and those
who do not want to let the oppor
tunity get away will do well to ar
range for reinstatement before the
last of this year.
AIRPLANE WEAPON OF FUTURE
New York, Nov. 17. Varying

ARBUCKLE JURY IS
COMPLETED FRIDAY
Five Wemen Among the Twelve
Who Will Decide the Film
Comedian's Fate.
San Francises, Nov. 18. Five wo
men, four of them married, are on
the jury sworn In the Arbuckle case.
An alternate juror, Stephen A. Hop
kins, .a paper merchant was also
sworn in.
Doctors Shelby P. Strange, acting
city autopsy surgeon and William
Orphuls, who conducted "both exter
nal and internal examinations of
Miss' Rappe's body, were; the first
witnesses. They described the blad
der rupture which caused Miss
Rappe'a death. The prosecution ac
cuses Arbuckle of causing this in
Jury through-the application of ex
ternal force.
A half hour argument was built
around a defense question to Dr. Or
phuls as to whether' Miss . Rappe'a
fatal injury might have been caused
by sudden immersion Jna tub of cold
water. The question, amended sever
al times, was allowed, and the doctor
said that such an injury was possi
ble from such a cause. He also said
the Injury was possible from, other
causes. .
Miss Rappe was immersed In a tub
of cold water during the party In the
Hotel St. Francis at which it Is al
leged she was fatally injured.
Some time was passed in discus
sion as to whether there should be
Saturday and night sessions. Gavin
McNab, chief counsel for the defense,
suggested that no session be held to
morrow on account of the football
game between California and Stan
ford universities. The court said he
desired to proceed tomorrow. Court
and counsel left the mater to the
jury to decide over night.
Arbuckle'a expression changed
from cheerfulness, apparent at the
time the Jury was selected, to con
cern and worry during the taking of
the testimony. He listened intently
and looked almost woe-begone at
timeswnen he apparently interpreted
the evidence as damaging to him.
