SWEDEN HAS LOST
FOREMOST LEADER
Death, at Stockholm of Former Pre
mier Socialist in Politics, But '
Respected by All Classes.
Stockholm, Feb. 24. Flags were
at half mast thruout Sweden today
in honor of Hjalmar Branting, form
er premier, .who died shortly after
noon. All classes expressed their re
gret at the passing of one who was
regarded as among Sweden's greatest
statesmen. Branting had been ill for
several weeks and serious complica
tions developed during the last few
days. Gallstone inflammation set ir
while his vitality was also ebbing.
One of the political effects of his
death is expected to be the develop
ment of a tension if not a com
plete split within the ranks of the
socialist party, which has been held
by the great force of Branting's per
sonality. The former premier's
nearest followers were Minister of
Defense Hanshon, and former Min
ister of Finance Thorsson. Both of
these men belong to the more con
servative element of the party, while
Richard Sandler, present head of the
i 'cabinet, and Minister' of Finance
Ernst Vigfors. are known as being
; radical in tendency. Branting's in-
I fluence was successful on several oc-
' casions in holding the party to-
gether.
The former premier had been ill
since November 30, when he con
tracted inllucnza.. At that time he
expected to go to the Rome meet
ing of the league of nations coun
cil. He later contracted throm
bosis and on January 24, resigned
as premier. He is survived by a
widow. Anna Branting, who for
forty years has been well known
as an authoress: a son, George, a
lawyer; a daughter, Sonja, also
lawyer, and a brother, Axel,
journalist.
The
reaction
to Brant lugs death
in all political camps, as
all
relies
ted
by the afternoon papers, is remark
able and unanimous. The ultra-con
servative Aftonbladet, in its obit
uary writes: "He was a real patriot
ar.d his guiding star was his pure
idealism."
The bolshcvist editor and party
leader, Zera Hoegland, one of Brant
ing's bitterest antagonists, says:
"Lucidity of style, logic of though
and weight of opinion were his
qualities as a writer, while hia politi
cal judgement, his theoretical knowl
edge and devotion to hi:; cause gave
him the position as leader."
FRAZIER'S MOTHER TO
get rack nmm
Beliave Lopez Partly Victim
Those Seeking to Identify
Him as Soldier.
of
Minneapolis, Minn., Feb. 24. The
United States Veterans' bureau is
preparing to pay Mrs. Charles Fraz
icr. mother of Arthur Frazier, 7 hun
dred dollars in back insurance in
stallments following confession of
Arthur Lopez that he had imperson
ated her soldier son, reported killed
in France. A 9 hundred dollar hos
pital bill is charged against Frazier's
record and the government estimates
it has spent ten thousand dollars to
clear up the Frazier case. The in
surance payments or $o7.50 were
stopped when the claimant to Ar
thur Frazier's name appeared.
Although Lopez is not a war vet
cran. the Veterans bureau announc
ed it will pay his expenses back to
San Antonio, Texas, if he is not
prosecuted. . , . .

"I never claimed to be Frazier,"

Y ADVERTISING
IN COUNTRY PRESS
Competition in Rural Districts
Healthy fcr Sonntry Merchants,
Ole Back Tells Ad Club.
There is plenty of business for
city merchants and small town mer
chants too, in Nebraska rural dis
tricts, Ole Buch pointed out to Lin
coln Ad club members Monday noon
at the chamber of commerce, and
there is no danger of the small town
man being put out of business, ex
cept thru his own fault. City adver
tisers are going more and more into
the country field, but the small town
merchant will always have lm own
field, and the small town newspaper
is justified in carrying advertising
for both.
"Small town merchants no longer
buy space to keep the paper alive,"
Mr. Buck said, "except in a few in
stances, but because advertising gives
them service. As living standards
rise, the rural demand for finer
things will grow, and country people
will go to the city for the sort of
things their own merchants cannot
afford to stock. This doesn't mean
ruin for the latter. Harvard people
now come to Lincoln to shop, Lin
coln goes to Omaha, Omaha to Chi
cago, Chicago to New York and New
York to Paris, and they all prosper.
"City advertisers can take a les
son from the mail order houses in
preparing their copy and layouts.
More pictures and more detailed de
scriptions are necessary to bring the
farmer's wife into the city to shop,
because it isn't easy for her as for
the city woman. And while some
newspapers are well equipped, the
majority are not, " so you cannot '
specify type and border as you can
in laying out your ad for the city
paper. This makes the.use of plate

"Country mercnants ana editors
are beginning to study advertising
systematically, for the former has

realizes that the only way to keep
a paper alive today is to make it

proclaimed himself patriarch, about
100 armed men. led by the so-called

but only on condition that Monje

be permitted to maintain live armed

large churches in the capital, as well
as the Guadalupe shrine, which is
the home of Mexico's patron saint.
The separatistt have declared that
their movement is being supported by
Mexican labor organizations, but
Eduardo Moneda, general secretary of
the Mexican regional federation of
labor, the largest organization of its
kind in Mexico, is quoted as saying
that the rules of the federation pro
hibit it from participating in relig
