LITTLE FRAUD IN
WAR CONTRACTS
Former Congressman Beavis Says So
After Examining Many Thou
sands of Them.
Former Congressman Tieavis, who
has been busy for a year and a half
on work connected with the investi-
gation of contracts made with the"
irovernment during the war, said on
his return to Lincoln that contrary
to the opinion often expressed, it was
very rare that any persons having
,-nntrartiial relations with the United
States during the war perpetrated or
attempted any fraud. t
Not one person in ten thousand, he
says, nas Deen iounu. aner ngm in
vestigation and examination, not yet J
entirelv completed, to have acted dis
honestly or unfairly with the govern
ment. Very few individuals or com
panies. he says, look advantage of
the government when it was wound- .J.
ed and in distress to line their pock
ets. The number who did is almost
negligible. For the most part they ;
acted honestly and patriotically,
many losing large sums on these con
tmpta -while few made more than a I
just and reasonable profit.
Where most of the war fraud cases
have arisen has been out of transac-
tions connected with the disposition
of the huge surplus of supplies left
on
hand when the war suddenly i
closed. Mr. Reavis spent seven weeks
before a grand jury in New York,
where he secured the indictment of a
large number of men, including army ; different dates of sowing wheat v ill team members; Myrtle Olson, leader.

BAVARIAN SPLIT
WITH GERMANY
GROWS IMMINENT,
Lndendorff Warns Against Separation
Little Hope in Eerlin Poin
care will Bow to Britain
Berlin. Sept. 21. The last i'4
hours has brought no relief to the
tension in the German domestic po
litical situation. The coalition par
ties remain firmly convinced that im
mediate settlement of the Ruhr ques
tion is vitally necessary, but they
make no attempt to dissemble the
fear that the immediate result would
be the separation of Eavaria from the
German republic.
It was learned tonight from a re
liable source that Minister of Defense
Gessler, who returned this niorning
from Bavaria brought back very pes
simistic reports of conditions there.
On the other hand, General Luden
dorff. in a Munich newspaper, says
"there must be no thought of a sepa
ration of Bavaria from Germany."
The two right parties German
nationals and nationalists (Deutsche
Volks Parte) have organized a joint
executive committee which is in
permanent session and preparing to
decide upon a course of action as
soon as the cabinet makes a final de
cision upon the Ruhr settlement.
This committee has numerous con
nections in Bavaria. The German
national members of the reichstag
and the Prussian diet have chosen a
similar joint committee.
There is reason to believe that the
sympathies of Pomerania, Mecklen
burg and East Prussia incline strong
ly towards Bavaria's side.
The cabinet is still awaiting an
answer from Paris to the latest Ger
man memorandum. Optimists in the
German foreign office believe they
can read between the lines of the
latest telegrams from Paris that Pre
mier Poincare will make some con
cessions to Prime Minister Baldwin
of' Great Britain, so" that a relatively
favorable turn of affairs may come
at the last moment. These optimists,
however, form a very small minority.
The communists are steadily in
creasing their activity. Their plans
obviously contemplate Saxony and
Thuringia the places for the gather
ing of the combined red forces in
the event of Bavaria's defection from
the German federation.
PRISONER PLEADS
FOR LAW RESPECT
Bobber Serving Penitentiary Sentence
at Lincoln Add His Bit to Con
stitution Week Appeal.
Lincoln. Sept. 20. B. Clark, pris
oner No. 8284 at the Nebraska state
penitentiary, in a letter nfade public
today by County Attorney C. E- Mat
son, makes a plea to all Americans
to "let reverence of the law become
the political religion of the nation."
Clark, who is serving a 15-year
sentence for robbery, following two
years served in the Minnesota peni
tentiary, heard the address made at
the prison last Sunday by County At
torney Matson.
He wrote to the county attorney,
commenting on the speech, which was
one in observance of "Constitution
week."
The prisoner expressed the
hope that there "shall arise some i
great statesman who will introduce j
into American schools
a
greater
spirit of reverence for law.
"You may be astonished that a
convict and a habitual criminal, so
called, entertains such sentiments.
