whereby its consideration will not be
resumed until the soldiers' bonus bill
has been parsed, probably next Tues

Omaha Lads Fight
Way Through Fire
in North Forests
Central High Youth, Mem-
hers of Hiking Party io
Minnesota, Tell of
Thrilling Adventure.
Beating their way through a road
outlined on each tide by burning
underbrush of the recent forest fire
in the vicinity of Eveleth, Minn.,' was
the exciting experience of two Cen
tral High school lads.
They are Hacrry Habcrstroh, 4028
Hamilton street, and Elmo Andcrton,
Twenty-seventh and Hickory street.
Both boy are members of the
Omaha Walking club, 17 of whom
arrive home Monday morning after
a two weeks outing at Lake Ver
milion, Minn. The two boys, how
ever, chose to hike back from Ver
milion lake and it was on their return
trip last week that they encountered
the forest fire.
Warned of Danger.
"Men fighting the fire told us we
were crazy to attempt to wane
through it and I guess they were
right," said Haberstroh, "but we were
anxious to get back home, to we
went ahead, anyway. We were for
tunate to get back alive as a slight
change in wind would have spread
the fire over the road. One-half hour
later the road was closed."
The boys made the round trip of
1 .250 miles in five days going up and
four days coming back. They.had
only $40 between them, and slept out
in the open, under the stars, each
night.
'We had a number of l ifts, but
one day we walked 17 miles; we av
eraged 12 miles other days," said
Haberstroh.
Start Home Tonight.
Edwin S. Jewell is in charge of the
biking party, members of which were
to arrive in Minneapolis this morn

to spend the ditv there and then start
for home tonight. Misses Bess Du-

, Fight to Finish.
New York. Aug. 26 -fBy A. P.)
With the peace effort launched by
the Bib five brotherhoods definitely
abandoned rail executives and shop
crafts leaders today realigned their
forces for a finish fight in winch
both sides predicted an early vic
tory.
'We are going home to start tnc
real fight," whether it lasts for three
weeks or three months," declared W.
F. Ryan, president of the carmen's
national brotherhood, as he prepared
to leave for Kansas City.
Our organizations have plenty of
funds to conduct a long fight, and
our men are willing to triage the
sacrifices needed for a decisive vic
tory," he concluded.
Issue Clearly Defined.
B. M. Jewell, head of the strike
organization of crafts, was equally
positive of the outcome of the bat
tle, which he asserted the railroads
left as the orty course for the unions
to pursue. Before starting for Chi
cago to pick up the reins of strike
leadership where he dropped them
when recent peace parleys began, he
issued a statement to his men in
which he said:
"We have gone the full limit in
the interest of peace. If we must
fight, we will show that we know
bow. Now that the issue is again
clearly defined and false hopes of
an early peace dissipated the fight
must be renewed with increased
vigor and every man must do his
full part to bring it to un taily and
successful conclusion."

hundreds, mostly farmers, on the
candidates endorsed by the Nonpar
tisan league and Inbor circles of the
slate and why these candidates, re
gardless of parly lines, should be
supported in November.
Mr, Townley attempted to show
what he regarded to he the "utter
futility" of wasting votes on a third
party in this state. He also spoke
at length of the alleged "tricks" of
the opponents of the league in keep
ing people away fram a discussion
and even a consideration of the
league's real abns and purposes by
circulating the false cries that it was
favoring "free love," was "pro-German,"
etc.
In asking nothing in the way of
office or power for themselves, Mr,
Townley urged upon the farmers they
would exercise a decidedly greater
political influence.

Expects Showdown Sooi
Omaha (See iMaed Wire.
W'atbingioii, Ag. 26 . Legislatior,
empowering the federal government
to take over the railroads and the
anthracite millet will be welcomed
by President Harding before con
gress rrrrsset unlets the llriket are
settled before that lime. Tbit was
declared today by offitiala in f!ose
touch with the White House,
Mr, Harding, it wat explained,
does not expett tu take any hasty
action. He may never make ue of
the authority sought, but be does not
want congress to go away and leave
bun powirlrst to deal with aiiv
emergency whiill may develop in
cither the rail or coal situation.
Mratutet giving the- president au
thority tu assume control of railroad
and mines will be introduced in con
gress within the next few days, un

Give Road Another Chance.
In conference with senators the
president indicated a willingnei tn
give the railroad executivea further
opportuity to demonstrate that they
can cope with the shopmen's strike
and to prove that they can operate
the roads to an extent nceesary to
meet the nation's traffic needs.
Until it becomese apparent that
a breakdown of transportation is in
evitable, the administration will make
no move to take over the roads. Pres
ident Harding dor not believe thai
that time has yet been reached. Scnu
ators who are keeping a close watch
on developments tay that the next
week will bring a showdown and
demonstrate whether the roads can
continue to operate tuecetsfully.
As for the anthracite ttrike, the
president's position, according to re
sponsible spokesmen, is that another
opportunity should be given the op
erators and miners to get together
before any attempt is made to op
crate the mines under federal con
trol. In administration circles there
is a feeling of confidence that a set
tlement of the anthracite strike will
come soon, notwithstanding the fail
ure of the Philadelphia parley earlier
in the week.
Little Progress Made.
Congress made little progress with
the legislation recommended by
President Harding to relieve the coal
situation, Senator Cummins, Iowa,
called together the senate interstate
commmerce committee, of which he
it chairman, to consider the bill de
signed to designate profits and dis
tribution. Differences of opinion
arose concerning the measure. At
the suggestion of Senator Pomerenc,
