Miss Doris Coatman, who . is at
tending school at University Place
was a visitor at home for over ' the
week end, but returned on Sunday
morning, as she sings ' in the choir
of the First Methodist church of
that place.
Orville Robertson, who believes in
marketing . his crops when they are
r?ady, shelled and delivered a portion
of his corn of this year's growing to
the Rehmeyer elevator and will when
he shall have . completed the gather
i.ig make another Shelling.
John U. Skinner, the hustling stock
hauler of the Coatman-Skinner com
pany, was over to Omaha on Friday
of last week with a load of stock for
J. L. Hardnock and Harold Nickels.
With the installation of the new
plate glass front which has recently
been installed in the store room of
11. L. Nelson, the building is pre
renting a better appearance, and
marks a step towards the completion
of the room, which will be occupied
by Mr. Nelson in the near future.
It is an ill wiud that blows no one
tood. While the very bad condition
t t the roads which have prevailed
during the past week has been hard
on the people "who drive cars and
trucks, it has brought much extra
business to the Alvo garage.
The extra work at the garage has
compelled Lee Coatman to make a
trip to Lincoln for repairs on last
Thursday.
The Alvo schools presented a very
fine program on Monday of last week,
which completed the session for the
day, there being no school during
the afternoon.
Sterling Coatman and the good
wife were host and hostess at a din
ner which they served on last Sunday,
when they had as their guests for the
day and dinner, Mr. and Mrs. R. M
Coatman and family. A very enjoy
able occasion was had.
Simon Kehmeyer, who has filled
his cribs at the elevator for the sec
end time this fall shelled the grain
and shipped it out on Thursday of
last week. This means the farmer
who has some extra corn which will
not go into the cribs at home, or that
for any reason he wants to deliver a
fcinall amount, will be able to take
it to the elevator and dispose of it
on the cob. When the crib is again
filled up it will be shelled and ship
ped out and the process continued.
Fred Ditmer, of near Eagle, was
over on last Thursday and got a load
and got a load of feed ground at the
Coatman mill. This institution which
allows; the farmer to get feed ground
is a great convenience to them as
they can bring their grains, mix the
same as they desire and in a short
time can take the load of feed home,
this being done while they are tjrad,-
ing eisewnere. .
There was a family dinner at the
church basement on last Sunday,
when the people had an opportunity
to get together, break bread and also
renew acquaintances and enjoy the
noon hour between the sessions of
the church and feel more friendly
and sociable.
The few days following the snow
of last week was pretty bad on the
rabbits of this section for each nim
rod with his gun and dog was out
scouring the highways and byways
as well as the hedges and thickets
for the festive cotton tails, and sure
they got them, too.
If. E. Farsell will have light in
the future without the coal oil lamp,
f.T he has had the home wired for
the use of electricity, A. B. Stromer
having done the work, which assures
that it is a good piece of work and
hereafter Mr. Parsell and family will
enjoy the beautiful white light that
comes from electricity.
Business called George Coatman
of Elmwood to Alvo on Thursday of
last week, he driving over from the
former city in his auto.
Mrs. M. J. Kahler went to Weep
ing Water early last week to' assist
in the care of one of her grandsons,
a son of Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Taylor,
of that place, who is very sick at
their home in Weeping Water.
They Came in Flocks
In order to commemorate in the
best of menners the passing of the
birthdays of Louis J. Herman and
Mrs. Herman, Eveline Snaveley, Lee
Coatman and W. W. Coatman. all
falls within the dates from November
8th to November 11th, there was held
a big celebration of the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Herman on November Sth.
There was a merry crowd present to
celebrate the occasion and to make
the passing of the date one long to
be remembered on account of the very
fine time which was had.

' Link Up Theater Job.
' : Omaha police looked and looked
and looked, Friday for, the, bandit sex
tet that got ? 15,5 02 from the Farm
ers and Merchants hank, Benson, on
Thursday afternoon, and the net re
sult of their looking vas a blood
stained hat, found behind the Sani
tary laundry at 2S15 Farnam street.
Although the bloodstained hat,
they are sure, was worn by one of
the bandits, so far its finding has
done nothing but whet the appetite
of the husman bloodhounds who are
now mad all through at being given
the goby by the robber gang.
And late Friday night the police
are afraid they have. lost the scent.
Fear They Skipped.
It is too much to expect that the
men will be lying low in Omaha, 36
hours after the robbery. The police
hopes now lie in a chance pickup by
police of other western citiese of one
of the two men whom bandit victims
have identified as members of the
robber gang Jess Eckford, recently
from Waupun prison in Wisconsin,
and Joe Huntley, recently from Kan
sas City.
William B. Hughes, secretary of
the Nebraska Bankers association,
late Friday had other bad news for
the police.
If the detectives in either of the
high-powered police cars which pass
ed the bandit auto while it was es
caping into town had slain the ban
dits, it is likely the bankers of Ne
braska would have given the police
the $3,000 reward for each dead
bank bandit, Mr. Hughes said.
The required number of Nebraska
banks have agreed to pay the "dead
bandit reward, similar to that in
Texas, but the dead bandit committee
has not yet formulated terms of the
reward, Mr. Hughes explained.
Although the bankers' reward
therefore would not have been bind
ing upon the banks had one of the
Benson bandits been slain, the bank
ers out of gratitude for popping off
the gang probably would have chip
ped in the big sum, Mr., Hughes be
lieves. However, it won't do the police
any good in the way of big mone
tary reward to kill the Benson ban
.dits now.
Chance Gone.
"The bandits must be made
dead bandits while committing
" 'the dime or running away with
. the money," said Miu Hughes.
"Any shooting to death the next
day won't go."
Mr. Hughes said the Bankers asso
ciation will pay $250 for "useful in
formation" leading to the bandits
capture.
He also said that the bankers' pri
vate detective, V. B. Condit, son of
State Sheriff William C. Condit, is
working on the case.
A band of ex-convicts from the
Wisconsin state penitentiary at Wau
pun were sought Friday by Omaha
Sioux City, Chicago and Kansas City
police as responsible not only for the
Benson bank robbery, but also for
the $6,500 Paramount theater rob
bery of Oct. 7.

: . BISHOP BACK IN. CHICAGO
' Chicago The "Rt. ReV Charles P.
Anderson, ' Episcopal bishop of Chi
cago for thirty ; years, , came home
from Washington Friday a , presid
ing bishop of his church and an
nounced that he would continue his
residence and his work here. Met at
the train by a large group of church
men, friends and. his family, he ac
knowledged his election to the prim
acy as a tribute to his diocese. He
has been a resident-of Chicago for
forty years,
"I do not intepd to resign as bis
hop of Chicago," he said "but I
will need some added assistance."
Church leaders said the aid would
probably be a bishopcoadjutor to as
sist iBshop Anderson in administer
ing the diocese and to succeed him
on his retirement.
Smuts Lecture
is Analysis of
World's Politics
South ' African Statesman at
ford Welcomes U. S.
Participation
ox-
London General Smuts, ex
Prinie Minister of South Africa, ii.
his week-end Rhodes lecture at Ox
ford, hailed the adhesion of the
United States to the Permanent
Court of International Justice as an
immense stride.
"What appeared as a bad setback
in 1920," he said, "has been trans
formed into the resounding victory
of 192S and America is once more
in the van of the great movements
toward world peace. The League
ideal had won and Mr. Wilson's Cove
nant was being improved by the
hands which had torn it up after the
peace. Like the sould of John Brown,
he Vovenant goes marching on ap
parently benefiting as much from
defeat as from victory."
The work of harmonizing the next
covenant with the Kellogg or Paris
pe:'.ce pact was an important mat
fer now engaging the attention of
the League. Heyond, General Smuts
edded, remains the still more im
portant question of .what the effects
of the renunciation of war as an
inctrument of national policy will
be on the peacemovement and how
it will affect the existing interna
tional law and especially the law of
neutrality which was based on the
opposite concept of the legality of
war. . . . The peace pact also calls
for a supplementary general conven
tion which will clarify the position,
define private and public wars and
plr.ee the aggressor in a private wai
or a disturber of, the public peace in
the position of an outlaw, by depriv
ing him of all rijrhts under interna
tional law, whicli will in their fu
ture application, be confined to thone
who in the course of public duty be
come involved in a public war.
"Ry thus bringing the sanctions of
international law to bear on the posl-
tion ot parties resortin gto private
war, a very powerful stimulus would
be given to the movement toward
universal peace. Such a convention
would incidentally solve two most
important problems, one affecting
Anglo-Americap relations and the
other affecting the operation of the
covenant. If the proscription of the
war outlaw is made a reality, and if
he is made to forfeit all rights of
commercial intercourse while he is
engaged in a private war, the whole
question of neutral rights is revolu
tionized and the doctrine of the free
dom of the seas ceases to be of any
practical importance
"If the United States had adhered
to the Covenant the doctrine would
have disappeared under Article 16.
I remember well President Wilson de
claring at the Peace Conference that
the Covenant would solve the ques
tion of the freedom of the seas for
the future. It is time to lay the ghost
of this issue which has troubled the
peace of the English-speaking world
for more than a century. A great
opening to settle it is once more
given, and I hope it will not be ol
lowed to pass without being exploited
to the full. But such a convention
will have an even more important
result a direct bearing on the op
eration of the Covenant, making it a
workable scheme which it cannot be
said to be at present whila the United
States stands out of the League. In
other words,-the effect of the carry
ing out of the peace pact to its neces
sary conclusions will be the same as
if the United States adhered to Ar
ticle 16.
"One more difficulty remains.
Under the Covenant and in the
League there is the difficulty of de
termining who is the aggressor
against whom the economic sanction
of Artiele 16 should be applied. The
League has not yet. found any satis
factory answer. Similarly the ditn-
culty will now arise under the peace
pact. If a private war breaks out.
who" has begun it -as an instrument
of national policy. aful should there
fore incur the penalty, of. proachin
tion and outlawry under the peace
pact will ' be the fuery. ' '
"It may be that'in neither case is
theoretically a. -satisfactory- answer
possible, but it may. also prove to be
unnecessary." Perhans here, as with
so many other great problems of life
and action, a water-tight theory may
not be arrived at. And yet a workable.
fay may be found in practice.
The convention which I suggest
for the carrying out of the peace pact
mfght deal not onlyl with the question
af outlawry and neutrality, but might
alsp provide for a. qonference system
to which not only' mempers of trie
teague, but those 'powers whd'Hrc
not League -'members smajf adhere."' '

Russians Scan
Living System
in America
Communists Lock for Great Up
heaval Soon in 'Country
Ruled by Wealth'
Morcow The Komsomolskaya
Pravda, daily organ of the Soviet
Union of Communist Youth, recently
devoted three pages of its space to
a broadside against American capi
talism and all its works. One may
gauge both the tone and substance of
the outburst fairly well by citing a
few of the headlines which were
splashed in byack type across each
of the three pages:
"The country of record figures will
be the country of record upheavals."
"The American Communist Party
and the Communist Youth, freed
from right deviationists, will lead
millions of workers and working
youth to the barricades of class
battle." The American proletariat
from defense passes over to attack.'
"The legend about American pros
perity. Business is their god, money
ruler. But, just as thrones and
churches have broken down, these
pillars of American 'prosperity will
break under the pressure of the revo
lutionary masses." "We already hear
the bubbling of the growing revolu
tionary wave, which will rise over
New York, Chicago and Washing
ton."
Some Ccmmunist Articles
Under these rather sensational
headlines Kamsamalskaya Pravda
printed a long series of articles by
Russian and American Communists
and excerpts from the writings of
native American critics, sucn as
Upton Sinclair and John Dos Passos,
all calculated to present life in Amer
ica, especially as affecting the work
ers, in the darkest possible colors.
Lynching, the low wages of tex
tile workers in the southern states,
the absence of state insurance
against unemployment and other
misfortunes, these are among the
main counts in the Communist in
dictment against the United States,
and there is a vivid account of the
strike in Gastonia, in which the
credit for organizing and leading it
is claimed for the American Com
munist Party.
American foreign policy Nica
ragua is unsparingly assailed, and
one Russian writer named Lebedev
restates an old Communist convic
ticn that America, Great Britain and
Japan are bound to clash in the Pa
cinh Ocean.
A Rapid Tempo
G. Morris, writing on behalf of the
American Union of Communist
Youth, declares that "the develop
niont. of the Amerlcnn Communist
outh and its Bolshevlzation are
going at a rapid tempo," although
the sktech which preceded this con
clusion indicated that America's
iyohng Commrnists had been drawn
into the iomr series of internal souab
hu.s which have marked the course
! of the American Communist Party
(officially know nas the Workers
Party), and which were recently
marked by the expulsion from the
ranks of the formerly prominent
American Communists, Jay Lovestone
and a number of his adherents.
A girl named Mary Himov de
scribed the activities cf America's
1000 Young Pioneers, the members
of the Communist children's organ
ization, especially in connection with
aiding strikes
There was a special reason, from
the Communist standpoint, for rep
resenting the life of the American
worker as an unbroken chain of
poverty, exploition and persecu
tion. To the Russian masses, includ
ing the workers, America Is a coun
try of almost legendary wealth and
prosperty. To believe that the pri
vate capitalist system could bring
such prosperity to the majority of
the people might well be the first
ste toward questioning fundamental
Bolshevik theories.
UNDER BOND OF A MILLION
Detroit. Mich. Bond of $1,000,
000 was set Thursday for the release
of Joseph A. Laman at the conclu
sion of his examination before a jus
tice of the peace at Wyandotte on a
charge of kidnapping Fred Berge
man," retired Wyandotte bootlegger.
Laman,' convicted as the "go-be
tween" in the kinnapping and slay
ing last summer of David Cass, twen
ty-three, son of a wealthy Detroit
real estate dealer, is on temporary
parole from the Michigan state pri
son, wnere ne is under sentence tor
two years for extoration in connec
tion with the case. He was re
leased to stand trial on the kidnap
ping charge. He has pleaded not
guilty.
Bergeman, who was kidnapped and
held six days last April, was in court
Thursday and pointed out Laman as
one of the. men , he saw. at the Dear
born home of Henry. Andrews, where
he was held prisoner. Bergeman was
released after $5,000 had been paid
to his captors last -spring. A . second
payment of $1,900 was made later.
It was Laman who collected $4,-
000 ransom from Gerson Cass father
of David, last summer; he was caught
n the act by detectives who shot
him when he tried ,to escape. The
bodv of Cass was found a month later
on the banks of the Flint river near
Mllliville.

Philadelphia Embezzlement of

er in the brokerage house of Mackle,
Wrentz & Co. Officials of the com
pany said the firm was fully protect
ed by insurance and will suffer no
loss. Heitman was held in $100,
000 bail for court. Inspector Wil
liam Connelly, of the detective bur
eau, said Heitman made a confes
sion in which he told of embezzle
ments covering a period of a year
and a half. So long as the market
was buoyant he was not detected and
was $75,000 ahead at one time, only
to lose everything when the market
slumped, Heitman told the police.

Lead Cheering
Paradox Follows Action of Drake
University Officials; Fol
lows Eggs, Paint.
Des Moines, la., Nov. 15. Six
Drake universitp students today
found themselves in a perplexing
situation. Tbey officially were sus
pended from all classes but the sus
pension, a faculty committee said, "is
not to be interpreted that they can
not lead the cheering" at the Drake
Iowa State college football game at
Ames Saturday.
That was the latest wrinkle in a
series of events that have preceded
the annual game. The six cheer lead
ers were suspended Thursday after
they had wielded paint brushes at
Ames. The Drake campus was simil
arly decorated, supposedly by Iowa
State students, early today. The home
of R. O. Davies, dean of men, who
suspended the students, was discolor
ed somewhat with rotten eggs, alleg
edly thrown by a dozen Drake stu
dents protesting the suspension of
three yell leaders. The dean was
hung in effigy on the campus.
School officials took no formal, ac
tion in the egging, saying they felt
the demonstration was a thought
less act on the part of a few students
and did not represent the sentiments
of the majority.
Several students were quoted as
deploring the egg demonstration. The
campus today was as quiet as usual.
Officials said they expected no fur
ther trouble, and the student coun
cil considered, but did not act upon,
a resolution regretting the incident.
The council did present a petition to
President D. M. Morehouse, however,
asking reinstatement of the suspend
ed cheer leaders. World-Herald.
REPORT HALF IOWA
CORN CROP HUSKED
Des Moines, la., Nov. 13. About
half of Iowa's 1929 corn crop has
been husked, Charles D. Reed, gov
ernment crop reporter, estimated in
his weekly report Wednesday. In
northwest counties, where he said
corn is turning out better than ex
pected, the work is about three
fourths done. Good progress was
made through the last week except
in the extreme southern counties
where the corn still contains too
much moisture to husk easily or
crib safely, Reed said.
