    Jews’ Arinv
Parallel of
Irish Force
Half Million Trained Men
First Protective Force
Since Hiblical
Days.
Isrndon, Dec. 20.—For tlie first time
since the days recorded in the Bible,
the Jews have a large army, capable
of protecting the lives and interests
of their nationals in Russia. The
army began in secret a year ago and
in many respects parallels Michael
Collins’ army before free state days.
The Jewish defense army has grown
until it approximates 500,000 strong
It is will equipped with rifles and ma
chine guns Branches of It exist in
every city of the Ukrainian republic,
having Jewisft population.
These astonishing facts were es
tablished by correspondents on a trip
from Odessa to Moscow. A large
number exists in Ukraine. In Kieve
the secret was not so carefully kept
and in smaller cities tho activities of
the secret Jewish army are openly
seen, livery man from IS to 50 is
enrolled, giving it a total of 500,000
bayonets, but the younger members
number at least 100,000,
Hailed Massacres.
The organization ot tho Jewish
army was caused by the continuation
of massacres in southern Russia,
which surpassed anything ever known
during the year’s time, and which did
not end with tho soviet dictatorship.
Ukrainian Jews today are living In
tho same fear of pogroms as during
tho days of Denlken and I’etlura. Kvl
deneo of tho Poles supplying money
and munitions to overthrow the Rus
sian soviets was another reason tor
the formation of the secret army, in
asmuch as all these bands, using
arms from across the Polish borders,
continued tho massacres which Pet
lura's hands began.
When not engaged in big actions
with enemies, detachments of the
Jewish army are systematically re
claiming villages and parts of cities
where their people were massacred
and deprived of their belongings.
Throughout the journey from Khar
kov to Odessa hundreds of stories
were heard of this continuous action
and some of the results seen.
Spalla Has Grown.
In a town called Spalla. for instance,
the Jewish volunteer army, well
armed, engaged 1n guerilla warfare
with a band of several hundred ban
dits, which ended with the Jews en
tering the town. Several thousand
residents, who escaped a series of mas
sacres two or three years ago began
streaming back from all parts of Rus
sia and Routnania. Today, Spilla has
a. larger population that it had beforo
the war.
In cities with a majority of Jewish
population, this army, although re
fraining from taking up governmental
«ontrol or in any other way mani
festing its power, is actually the su
premo force, lu the villages they are
continually on guard because when
ever heavy taxation is placed on the
peasants numerous peasant sons join
small bandit organizations for the
purpose of attacking the villages and
making the villagers bear their taxa
tion. In order to protect the villages,
the Jewish army has built up a big
courier system.
The existence of the Jewish army
continues with great difficulty owing
to the complicated situation in Ukraine
and the fact that the soviets look up
on it such as Great Britain looked up
op Michael Collins' Irish army.
Founded I5y Zionists.
To begin with, the Jewish army was
founded by young Zionists groups
and therefore had religious ns well
as racial significance. This was in
compatible with the soviets’ plan to
stamp out religious organization ev
erywhere. On the other hand the
soviets realized tiiat the new forces
were useful in dealing with banditry,
which had reached dangerous heights
under Macho and Petlura. and endan
gered the soviet rule in southern
Russia.
The government continually sought
to check the movement. Even lead
ing communists of Jewish origin, who
in adopting the communist formula
renounce their religion in favor of
atheism or materialism, have bitter
ly opposed the Jewish army and evrn
today, when the army has become a
great force, its future remains pre
cat ions. However, the array leaders
declare' it will resist any oppressive
measures.

Many amateurs are experimenting
I at present with various forms of
storage B batteries with more or less
success, but the average amateur has
no means of recharging such batteries
and sulphuric add solution in open
jars or test tubes is a somewhat dan
gerous nuisance.
Modification of the old Leclanche
cell gives good results and it is easily
anti cheaply built, can be renewed
for a few cents and the solution is
not nearly as destructive as sulphuric
acid.
The materials required are 20 or
more (depending on voltage required)
one-inch test tubes, 20 pieces of zinc
rod one-quarter inch by four inches,
20 carbons from an old B battery,
a cigar box and a broken storage
battery jar.
Cut holes through the lid of the
cigar box for the tost tubes to fit
Into. Cut the battery jar into strips
one-half inch by five Inches. Place a
strip of this between each carbon and
a zinc with a rubber band around
top and another around bottom to
hold them together. Put one of these
sets in each test tube. Solder wires
from (lie zinc of one cell to the car
bon of the next, connecting ail the
cells in series. The cal'lion terminal
is positive and zinc and negative.
Make a solution of two ounces of sal
ammoniac in one pint of water. Fill
each cell with this solution and add
a drop or two of oil on the surface
of each to prevent evaporation.
This battery will not give quite as
high voltago as the same number of
dry cells, but there is no limit to
the number of cells you may connect
in series. When the battery gels
weak add more sal ammoniac to each
cell. Zincs should last six months
and carbons indefinitely.

Wave of Crime
Oil Station Manager Shot Re
sisting Holdup—Jeweler
Slugged—Boot Shop
Owner Robbed.
A crime wave broke loose in Oma
ha Tuesday night, and yesterday
j morning the entire detective force was
sent scurrying to all parts of the city
1 looking for clues on a series of desper
ate holdmi* and shootings.
Edward Stone, manager of the
Shaefer Oil Filling station. Six
teenth and Pinkney streets, was
shot twice by a bandit as be was
I closing the station at 6:30 Tuesday
| evening. He is in a critical condi
tion at Immanuel hospital.
B. Q. Haines, jeweler, at Twen
ty-fourth and Fa mam streets, was
slugged by a holdup man at 8 Tues
day night and robbed of $20 which
was in the cash register. *
Sam Friedman of the Friedman
boot shop, 1510 Nortli Twenty
fourth street, and his nephew,
Nathan Wolk, 9, were held up at
the point of a gun and Friedman
was forced to remove and hand to
the bandit about $S0 from his cash
register.
Sophie Ban, 14, awoke in her
home, 804 North Eighteenth street,
at 1:30 a. m. yesterday and routed a
burglar whom she found standing
by her lied.
Hoy Watches Holdup.
Stone had emerged from his filling
station when the unmasked bandit
accosted him.
Kenyon Hughes, son of the proprie
tor of the Hughes grocery store, stood
i in the store window and watched the
holdup. The bandit Hred almost im
mediately after Stone stepped from
the door, young Hughes said.
Stone staggered as far as the gro
ci ry store. Ho still elutchVd the bag
of money, the day's receipts at the
tilling station. They totaled between
$50 and $100, according to Stone's
brother, Harry 1>. Stone, 2902 North
Seventeenth street.
The bandit lied qulclfly after firing
two shots, according to young Hughes.
A few minutes later a large touring
car was seen to emerge rapidly from
an alley across the street from the
filling station and dash westward to
Florence boulevard, where it was lost
In the heavy traffic of motors.
Fighting Chance,
Stone, wiio is 53 years old and a !
bachelor, is a graduate of tho old
Omaha Medical college, but never has
practiced medicine In Omaha. His
father was Dr. M. W. Stone.
Taken to the ofierating table at Im
manuel hospital, S£one was found to
have received 17 perforations In his
lower Intestines. The bullets were not
removed. He is said to have a fight
, ing chance for recovery.
Detectives Haney, Walker. Lickert
and Treglia worked yesterday on clues
to the idenlty of the man who slugged
R. I. Haines in his jewelry store, 223S
Kamam street, and stole $20 from
the cash register.
The man evidently became terrified
after slugging the jeweler into uncon
sciousness. Though valuable jewelry
was all around him, all he took was
$20 from the cash register.
Gems All Around.
On the ledge of a showcase lay a
platinum wrist watch worth $300.
Right under this in a drawer partly
open were diamonds worth more than
$1,500, which the thief could have
had by scooping them up. Many val
uable rings and pins set with precious
stones were In the showcases. No
body was in the store.
Haines was at work in his store
when a tall man entered. The man
asked. "Is that pin finished?”
"What is the name?” asked the
jeweler.
“Snyder,” said the stranger.
As Haines walked toward the safe
in the rear end of the store the man
slipped up behind him and slugged
him.
Fifteen minutes later Haines was
found lying on tHo floor by ('. A. El
sasser, 2010 Elm street. He called
Ray Cutler, who was passing, and
Cutler notified police. Haines was
able to be at work yesterday morning.
"Help Yourself.”
Just seven years to the day, and
almost to the hour, since he had
been held up and shot, Sam Fried
man of the Friedman boot shop again
faced an unmasked bandit and a
loaded gun at 7:30 Tuesday night.
"Get your money ready,"#was the
ferocious manner in which the bandit
announced himself.
"Go ahead and help yourself." re
torted Friedman.
Friedman’s 9-year-old nephew, Na
than Wolk, started to run through a
door into the back part of the store,
whore there was a telephone.
"Come on back, where I can see
you, son,” ordered the bandit, display
ing his small revolver. "I want you
to open the register," he added, glar
ing at Friedman.
liandlts Gels $80.
Friedman did. The man departed with
about $80. after ordering Friedman
and his nephew Into the basement.
"Just seven years ago December 19,
I was helil up in my store at 211
South Fourteenth street,” said Fried
man this morning. "That holdup hap
pened about an hour later than the
one last night, though. That time 1
got shot in the wrist. I thought the
man was joking, but this time 1 took
no chances. The other time the man
left without the money: this time he
took it. But this time 1 didn’t get
shot.”

Reserve Board
Is More Liberal
With Farm Paper
Yields to Farm Bloc Pressure
—New Ruling Will Prove
Big Benefit to Co-Op
erative Associations.
By GKORGK F. Al'TIHKK
IViimIiInjtton t'orrr-pomlrnt llnuilm lice.
Washington, Dec. 20.—The Federal
Reserve board yesterday announced a
new policy of more liberal acceptance
of farm paper, signalizing yielding to
farm bloc pressure. The new regula
tion follows the recommendations
made by the National Co-Operative ns
sociation at its recent Washington
meeting and is aimed to encourage
co-operative marketing.
Ttie board announcement makes eli
gible for purchase by Federal Reserve
banks on the open market bankers’
acceptances with maturities up to six
months which are drawn by growers
or co-operative marketing associations
to finance orderly marketing of non
perishable readily marketable staple
agricultural products when secured by
warehouse receipts covering such
products.
Ollier Bills Pending.
Bills are now pending in congress,
one by Senator Capper and the other
by Representative McFadden, republi
can, Pennsylvania, making farm notes
eligible for rediscount up to nine
months maturity.
Members of the hoard declare the
new ruling will not have any material ;
effect on general business, hut will
greatly encourage the co-operutivt
movement.
Tlie board will Continue to distin
guish between co-operative associa
tions which aim to sell the goods to
consumers directly and those which
I propose to hold back their commodi
ties for speculative purposes.
Under the ruling, if a grower de
, sires to borrow directly on Ills crop
lie may draw a draft on the co-oper
ative association at the time he de
; livers his crop, the association accept
ing it. Ho can discount the draft at
ills local bank, which, under the
1 board's ruling, may rediscount it at
a federal reserve bank as agricultural
paper with a maturity up to six
months.
Kules for Associations.
If the association itself wishes to
borrow directly from a bank in order
to make payments to the growers who
are its members. Its notes are eligi
ble for rediscount. This paper, how
ever, will continue to be regarded as
commercial rather than agricultural,
and limited to 90 days' maturity. Tho
AtcFadden and Cupper bills would
remedy tills and their passage will
give still further relief to holders of
this kind of maturity.
"This ruling,” the board says, "has
rightly been regarded as a very liberal
one and will greatly facilitate tho op
eration of eo-operativo associations—
in fact, has already done so. It Is
based upon the principle, long recog
ized by the board, ttmt the carrying
of agricultural products for such peri
ods as are reasonably necessary in
order to accomplish orderly market
ing, is a legitimate and necessary
step incident to a normal distribu
tion."

of Livestock Exchange
"There Is no worrying over the
livestock situation around Hianchard,
la.," sai.l la \V. Henley of tho place,
who was a visitor at the Omaha stock
yards yesterday, looking over the
market.
Continuing, Mr. Henley said, “I am
planning on purchasing a bunch of
feeders ns I have a large supply of
corn on hand and hope to feed it with
tho view i f getting more for it in
livestock than 1 can sel! it for among
my neighbors, who ate paying high
for their corn.
"Most of tho livestock shipped t<»
Omaha from I’aigo count y I Ills sea
son has paid out welt and most
of the livestock raisers who h ive live
stock on feed, are , ;.ting better
prices."
Not only the top price of the day
for heavy cattle, but tho highest
price received for some tint •. was paid
to John Keesotn of 1 termer at the
local stockyards for a l a ! of nicely
fattened, high quality llercfords, that
averaged 1.333 pounds.
Mr. Iteesom said his cattle were
on feed rather longer than usual,
having been in the feed lots for sev
en months, but he said lie was quite
satisfied at .he price of $10.20 C
hundred.
Two loads of polled Durham year
lings were brought to tho local mar
ket yesterday by James 8. t'arse .f
Carson, In. There were in the slil|>
rnent 31) head, averaging 890 pounds,
and because of tlirir lack of finish,
they were sold for $9.80 a iendred.
"It is too expensive to raise cat
tle on high pric. ,1 land," said Mr.
Carse. "Hay is hard to get and corn
Is selling for a bushel. Tin • • are '
more cattle on feed around Carson
than there is feed, and if a farmer
hasn't a few acres of land for pas
ture, he stands a chance of losing by
raising cattle. '
