Company, Detroit, and has necessi
tated the building of 101,164 Ford
cars and trucks in April in order to
meet the requirements.
Thi3 is the largest output of Ford
cars ever scheduled for April, being
10,000 above the same month of a
year ago. It also marks an early
opening of 'the spring and summer
buying and seems to indicate that
even more Ford cars and trucks will
be sold in 1H22 than in 1921, which
was a banner year..
Orders for Ford caf3 and trucks
have already exceeded the supply in
many parts of the country and pur
chasers are finding it necessary to
accept deferred ' delivery The Ford
factory at Detroit is getting into ca
pacity production as fast as possible
with the hope of preventing a sim
ilar shortage when the spring-summer
rush begins.
Ford dealers throughout the Unit
ed States are urging Ford customers
to place their orders early and thus
prevent the possibility of having to
wait for delivery.

YOUNG LADIES
AUXILIARY HOLDS
FINE MEETING
Lincoln, April 18. State Engineer
George Johnson this noon got back
the records he charged were missing
from his office.
Gus Hyerp, state sheriff, seized
them, with a search warrant, from
O. V. P. Stout, former dean of the
University of Nebraska engineering
college, who said he was studying
them for C. H. Epperson and Tlaorge
W. Marsh, members of the commit
tee probing the state department of
public works.
Hyers said he got the warrant up
on request of George K. Leonard, as
sistant to Johnson.
Mr. Stout had denied the books to
Mr. Leonard. He said he wouldn't
turn them over without authority
from Epperson or March from whom
he said he obtained them.
The missing records, it was al
leged, were taken by C. W. Hamil
ton, discharged Johnson engineer.
They included surveyor's notes of
project No. 20 in Douglas county
and were said to have revealed al
terations. - K'
"Co-operation." said Sheriff Hyers,
In explaining the seizure. "I'm co
operating with the state department
of public works."
A candidate for sheriff in Greeley
county whose name Is not given in
a letter from County Attorney 1. J.
Barrett to the atorney general's of
fice is violating the law, according
to the view of Assistant Attorney
General C. L. Dort. The candidate
pledges himself, "not only to put the
office on an efficient and business
like basis, loing the work of the of
fice himself not drawing the sal
ary and having a deputy do the vork
but I will absolutely agree to turn
back to the general fund of the coun
ty $350 per year from the salary now
provided by law, a total of $1,400
for the four years. "He believes that
descending 'prices should carry with
them reductions in official salaries,
thus lessening a little the excessive
burden of taxation. "This is my plat
form. I want your support," says the
candidate's statement.
The attorney general's office be
lieves this promise is in violation of
the so-called corrupt practices act
which prohibits candidates from
promising voters anything of value
for their votes.
Assistant Attorney General Dort
does not call this sort of thing brib
ery, but he cites several cases in
which courts have so termed similar
promises. He doe3 not believe that
any public office should be auctioned
off to the person who may be will
ing to take the smallest compensa
tion. Public salaries are fixed by
law. In the case of State vs. Me.-erve
the supreme court held that an offi
cer is required to perform his duties
without extra compensation and sole
ly for the compensation fixed bf law.
"It would therefore seem, says
Mr. Dort, "to follow that a candidate
making such offer, directly or indi
rectly, is violating chapter 23. laws
1915, nnd even if elected by such
means should 'be removed from office
by quo warranto proceedings."

FIRE DOES MUCH DAMAGE
From Wednesday' ta!ly.
This morning shortly after 10 o'
clock the residence on Marble street
occupied by Mrs. Nellie Gorder, was
found to be in flames and the inter
ior of the house practically gutted
by -the fire. Mrs. Gorder was engag
ed in running an -electric washer
on the the lower floor of the house
suddenly heard a noise as of falling
glass on the upper floor of the' house
and on going to the stairway found
that the whole fecond story was In
flames. The fire department was call
ed and made a spirited fight to sub
due the fire and with the result that
the fire was confined to the 'Inter
ior of the house. With the assistance.
of the neighbors the household goods
on the lower floor as well as a part
on the upper iloor were removed
from the burning house. On the first
floor the greatest loss was from the
water and the plastering on the ceil
ings was all water-soaked and loos
ened and on the upper floor the fire
made a clean sweep of the rooms.
From what can be discovered the
fire -seems to have originated from
defective wiring.
Washington. April 18. Senate re-
publicaps, meeti.a? today in party
conference, voted 26 to 9 in favor of
the passage or a soiuiers Donus diii
at this wssion of. congress. The fi
nance committee majority was re
quested in a formal resolution to re
port such a measure "within a rea
sonable time." which was construed
by some leaders as three or four
week3.
Senator Watson of Indiana, a re
publican member of the finance com
mittee, said the 'bonus bill protably
would be taken up in tne senate and
put thru Immediately after it was re
ported. He thiught Its consideration
would require only a short time, but
was not so certain as to the form the
measure to be drawn by the commit
tee -would .take.
Under the present plan, the tariff
bill which is to be called up Thurs
day would be laid aside temporarily
for consideration of the bonus. There
was a suggestion that the means of
financing the bonus might be provid
ed for in an amendment to the tariff
bill.
There is a division of opinion
among majority senate ieauer3 as no
whether the senate could auacn a
revenue provision to the bonus bill
itself, because of the requirement
that revenue measures originate m
the house. The bonus measure passed
by that 'body carried no means of
financing. Aside from the house bin
which was referred to it last month,
the senate committee has before it
the bonus legislation which -was re
committed by the senate last July at
the request of ' President Harding.
This likewise, has no revenue rais
ing provision.
Only one member or tne nnance
committee, Senator CaWer, or .ew
York, voted aeaLnst the conrerence
i-ocnintirm lMvi.ir1n.fir Jor Dassage oi
the bonus.
After the return here Thursday or
Chairman McCumber of the nnance
committee, majority members or mat
committee will meet to determine
procedure on the bonus.
Before the committee comes to auj
decision, a number of its memDers
plan to discuss .the question wun
President Harding, who has been in-
nlitpnt that anv bonus legislation
should carry a means of financing the
options proposed for the veterans.
IS 11
films in which Roscoe C. (Fatty) j not be allowed-The fine was S10 and
Arbuckle appears, was announced to- costs which totalled the sunr nameu
night by Will II. Hays, head of the: above. ;
motion picture producers' associa-
tion. This action, he said, affected ;
nearly 10,000 contracts.
"After consultation with Mr. Nich
olas Schenck, representing Mr. Jo
seph Schenck, the producers and Mr.
Adolph Zukor or Mr. Lasky of the
Famous Players Lasky corporation,
the distributor." Mr. Hays' state
ment slid. "I will state that at my
request they have canceled all show
ings and all bookings of the Arbuckle
films. They do this that the whole
matter may have the consideration
that, its importance warrants and the
action is taken notwithstanding the
fact that they had nearly 10.000
contracts in force for the Arbuckle
pictures."
When Mr. Zukor was asked u the ;
action of the producers' association !
had removed Arbuckle definitely :
from the list of screen stars, he re- j
plied: j
'We simply left the matter in the i
hands of Mr. Hays. It is up to him !
to decide in the future whetlier it j
will be proper to re-introduce the Ar
buckle pictures." ;
Mr. Zukor said recently that three
Arbuckle fpature comedies had been
completed before the arrest of the
comedian on charges growing out of
the death of Miss Virginia Rappe.
