Heavy Loss

Large Ice House
Burlington Plant at Omaha Razed
$185,000 Damage Firemen
Have a Close Call.
Omaha The Burlington ice house
at the Gibson yards, the largest ice
house in Omaha, was totally destroy-
e(j by fire late Friday. Loss is esti-
mated at $185,000 by R. D. Kellen-
ger district superintendent of the
Burlington refrigerator express com-
pany.
The ice house was 930 feet long
and had a capacity of 30,000 tons of J
ice. It was miea nearly to capacity,
800 cars of ice having been moved in
recently. The loss in ice alone was
estimated at $60,000.

make any headway against the

nearby buildings.

LESS FOE PUBLIC HEALTH
Statistics compiled at Washing
ton on public health and in the
hands of the Nebraska state depart
ment indicate that the per capita ap
propriation for this state is far be
low the average and is, in fact, the
lowest of any state in the union.
The last legislature apropriated for
this activity $31,000 per year for
the bienniuin, or approximately 2.2
cents per capita.
The Iowa legislature .appropriat
ed, twice as much. Kanasa three,
times as much. South Dakota and
Colorado each more than doubled
the Nebraska aproprition. Experts
who have given tbe matter consid
erable study estimate fifty cents per
capita as the amount that should be
available wor public health purposes.

BOSCH CANNOT USE NAME
New York Robert Bosch, inven
tor of magnetos, Thursday was en
joined from using his name in the
manufacture and sale of electrical
automobile equipment in this coun
try, in an opinion handed dowrn by
Supreme Court Justice Crain.
The exclusive use of the words
"Bosch" and "Robert Bosch" in the
.sale of magnetos in America was
granted to the American Bosch Mag-
neto corporation, the plaintiff in the
action. The Robert Bosch Magneto
company of New York was the de
fendant in the suit.
Emory R. Buckner, counsel for the
plaintiff, said the opinion set a pie
cedent, inasmuch as Bosch was the
first German manufacturer, who, af
ter his property in America had been
sold at public, auction by the alien
property custodian, attempted to re
establish his own name in commer
cial competition. Mr. Buckner also
said the decision was important as
protecting the rights of all thoe who
bought property from tbe alien prop

Mexican Church
Dispute is Ended;
Edifices to Open
Priests Will Be Permitted to Give
Instructions Within Structures
Based on 3 Points.
Mexico City, June 21. Simultan-
eous announcements tonight by Pres-
ident Emilio Portes Gil and Arch-
bishop Leopoldo Ruiz, senior member
of the Catholic hierarchy in Mexico,
informed the country which has been
in strife for three years that the long
standing controversy between church
and state is at an end.
The archbishop, who was papal
delegate for the negotiations, told
the children of the church that the
priests will resume leadership, of the
services in the churches, as they have
not done since August 1, 1926. He
called on them "to co-operate with
all moral efforts made for the bene
fit of all people of oifr 'fatherland."
i The statement of the president,
which the church delegates had seen
and approved at a final conference
this evening, gave the basis on which
agreement was reached on tbe three
principal issues.
, Bights to Church.
! The terms give the church the
right to specify those ministers in
charge of property who should regis-
ter under the laws, give it the right
to instruct adults or children within
the precincts of the church, although
not elsewhere in public or Private
tichoolB, and stress that under the
constitution any citizen may apply
at any time for amendment, repeal
or passage of any law.
agreement was uiuau t-uuufeu
to permit reoccupation of the
churches by priests, although not a
complete settlement cf all differences
between church and state. The way
was left open for future discussion of
these if Catholic subjects of Mexico
desire to seek a change in the state
constitution.
The bishops did not state when
regular services would begin but it
was believed that the priests would
begin to reoccupy the churches with
in a few days. In expectation of a

the president set forth these
three points
1 That the law requiring
registration of the priests
doesn't mean the government can
register those who haven't been
named for that purpose by the
church authorities.
2 While the constitution
prohibits religious instruction in
public and private schools, it
doesent prevent such instruc
instruction within the m church
confines.
3 Members of any church
resident in Mexico may at any
time avail themselves of tbe
constitutional privilege of peti
tioning for amendment, repeal
or passage of any law.
A simultaneously issued statement
by Archbishop Ruiz, papal delegate,
said merely the conversations with
the president had been marked by a
spirit of good will and respect, and
that as a consequence of the presi
dent's written rublic statement of
the Mexican clergy will resume re
ligious services pursuant to the laws
in force.

At least it might appear so from

Miller wanted to know to whom

Democratic
Outlook

Shouse Finds

Says South All Eight
New York. June 19. Jouett
Shouse, in charge of democratic or-
ganization activities, asserted here
today that the solid south is drifting
back into the democratic fold and
the whole northwest is in revolt
against the republican tariff policy.
These two distinctive movements are
the outstanding political tendencies
of the day, Mr. Shouse believes, and
he bases his convictions on careful,
detailed study of the situation in
each state.
Far from being discouraged by the
prospects, Mr. Shouse sees much to
cheer the democracy and its lead
ers. Shouse today spent a busy day
in New York in conference with
John J. Raskob. Alfred E. Smith and
other democratic chiefs.
Mr. Shouse insisted his call on
the former governor was personal
and not political and had no 1111-
portant significance. He would have lief and tariff, senators plunged into

Cannon, had a convention yesterday
and iij.ni-il an independent for gov
ernor in the hope of fusing with
the republicans, and beating Gover
nor Byrd and tbe regular democrats.
Of the special congressional elec
tion in Minnesota yesterday, Shouse
had this to say:
"The republicans won by such a
narrow margin in the Minnesota
contest, by reason of there being a
third candidate in the field, that
the result is a moral democratic vic
tory. Minnesota is rovk-ribbed re
