The Death of Marriage.
Only $1.000,000 a Month
^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^
Seven Germans killed, 20 wound
ed at the Krupp works in the Ruhr
by French machine guns. Workers
threateened troops, the French say,
resisting the effort of French to
take possession of the Krupp
works.
The French have notified 500,
000 German workers that if they
don’t go to work they will be de
ported from the Ruhr.
The French have seized 10,000,
000,000 marks, and 400,000 French
francs belonging to the German
reichsbank.
It is quite evident that the
French mean to go through with
their Ruhr undertaking.
That’s “peace” in Europe, as
represented by the league of na
tion*.
The Federal Council of Churches
shows that the United States was
more interested in religion in 1922
than in 1921. The church mem
bership increased in one year by
more than 1,200,000. The gain
included 9,000 new congregations
and 15,000 new clergymen.
There are 243,500 congregations
In the country and 214,583 clergy
men. Membership in all religious
bodies amounts to 47,461,558,
leaving many millions unaccounted
for.
' However, if all of the 47,461,
558 should pray for the same thing
at the same time, what an appeal
that would be.
Many sermons were preached
against divorce in the United
States Sunday. But merely attack
ing divorce is beginning at the
wrong end of the problem.
Divorce is the death of marriage.
To prevent death, fight disease.
Divorce is not the beginning but
the end of the trouble. You may
say “we forbid death,” but people
will still die.
Fight the disease and its causes,
which include hasty and too early
marriage, badly assorted mar
riage, and too many parents that
allow themselves to be ruled by
their children, and let the children
grow up without discipline. The
discipline of marriage must be pre
ceded by other discipline.
Congressional invest igation
shows that Mr. Rockefeller, jr., has
an income of about $1,000,000 a
month from Standard Oil stocks
and newspapers are excited, need
lessly.
One million dollars a month is
not such a big income in these
days.
If Mii Rockefeller’s total in
come were only $12,000,000 a year
he would consider himself poor.
It doesn't matter much what
anybody’s income is. What mat
ters is, what he does with that in
come.
Ireland was poverty and famine
stricken for centuries because land
lords drew their income from the
soil and spent it in London. If
they had spent and lived in Ire
land, conditions would have been
different.
One self-expatriated Astor, tak
ing two or three millions a year
out of the United States, is worse
for a country than half a dozen
Americans making five to fifty mil
lions a year in this country, re
investing it here and building up
the country.
What rich Americans actually
spend, apart from reinvestment in
new enterprises amounts to little.
And when money is reinvested in
productive enterprises, it doesn’t
matter much who owns it—provid
ed the wealth is taxed as it should
he and none of the money goes to
buy special privilege.
Several days ago a mob of stu
dents attacked the Jewish theater
in Bucharest. Now the government
has withdrawn the theater’s license !
and closed it, giving no explana
tion.
Bernhardt, greatest actress of
onr period, just buried in Paris,
was a Jewess. The greatest be
fore her, P.achel, was another
Jewess. Not much intelligence is
shown in forbidding acting by those
that best understand the art. Even
a mob might understand that.
Not long ago the head of Chi
cago's police said half the police
force of his city was engaged in
bootlegging. Saturday in Indiana,
56 individuals including “many em- 1
inent citizens” were convicted of
a bootleg conspiracy. Those con
victed included the mayor of Gary,
,i judge and the sheriff. Enforce
ment of prohibition is not easy.
The prohibition tendency con
tinues to spread. Turkey will en
force a law forbidding any Turk
to have more than one wife. Once
the sultan had 1,000 wives.
In other ways Turkey Is adopt
ing western ideas. She invites
American business men to go
there, go into business and illus
trate American methods. She says
she won’t disturb American or
other missionaries if they will re
frain from “stirring up the Greeks
and Armenians.”_

I
: Jacoby Passes
| Out Advice on
Capitol Plans
Havelock Labor Leader Hur
ries to Newspapers With
Scheme to Save Millions
on New State House.
Special Dispatch t<> The Omaha Bee.
Lincoln, April 4.—Representative I.
j W. Jacoby of Havelock, labor lead
I pr extraordinary', political economist
and daily' orator, today pointed out to
! the lower house liis way to economy
| in building the new statehouse.
The Jacoby plan is simple.
All the state needs to do, according
to Jacoby, is to await the time when
builders of the statehouse are ready
to erect the dome. At that time,
Jacoby suggests getting a derrick,
connecting the derrick with the dome
of the old state house and placing the
old dome on the new statehouse.
Given to Press.
; This proposal was made in the form
of a motion, copies of which were
distributed liberally to men in the
[ press box. The Jacoby proposal fol
! lows:
"The capitol commission and all
officers of the state of Nebraska in
any way connected with the erection
and construction of the new capitol,
are hereby Instructed and commanded
that no portion of the fund herein
appropriated for erection and con
struction of said capitol shall lie used
during the biennium for which said
appropriations are available In the
construction or erection of the dome
which appears in the plans and speci
fications for said capitol; hut when
the work of building has progressed
to the point where said dome would
be the next step of construction, it
shall be the duty of the capitol com
mission and the contractor to fit up
to around the present dome and com
plete the work by substituting the
present sightly and conventional
dorp® for the smokestack mon
strosity which was film-flammed on
the capitol commission."
Will Save Millions.
‘‘This will nave the taxpayers of
Nebraska at least $4,000,000. Evrfy
member here was elected on his
promise, either direct or implied, to
carry out a program of strict
economy. We cannot go back to our
constitufents and look them squarely
in the eyes unless we have made a
real, honest effort to cut down ex
penses.
‘‘This smokestack dome which
Architect Goodhue has imposed upon
the capitol commission looks impos
ing on paper. Some may even ad
mire it. For my part, 1 don’t. I
prefer the present dome which is
built after the fashion of capitol
domes since Heck was a pup. It
answers the purpose admirably. The
new smokestack Will be a draft flue
which will make the capitol almost
impossible to heat in winter. A 400.
foot flue with four drafts—each
elevator will act rs one—will have a
suction beyond power of ordinary
language to describe. I dread to
think what will happen to the G.
A. R. on the top floor. They will
be roasted alive while those on the
main or will freeze. If someone
on the top floor raises a window
while one of the elevator doors Ib
open, the draft created will be ter
rific. It will be no safe place for a
modest Woman to walk—that s cer
tain.
But the main thing is that we can
save $4,000,000 by cutting out this
u terly, and worse than useless dome
and using the one we have. A few
thousand dollars will fix it up in
fine shape. Let us save the $1,000.

Dr. Condra Attacked

drawing a salary for displaying pic
tures of the resources of Nebraska.
"We have records in the blue sky
department to show that Dr. Condra
gave his note for $100,000 for a $100.
000 certificate of stock In this com
pany. We have proof to show that
ttie note was cancelled shortly before
the company went to the wall and the
etock certificate was returned to the
company.
Wanted Children's Money.
"We have proof that the doctor, In
his eagt-rnese to sell this stock, went
so far as to call upon trustees of chil
dren's Inheritances and endeavored
to get these trustees to Invest money
of these children in this stock. VA
man of this caliber should not teach
the youth of our state, and until the
board of regents takes action on hi*
case, I think we should withhold an
appropriation for his department.”
"I don’t think the charges gainst
a man has anything to do with ap
propriations for a department," Bald
j i ige of Omaha retorted. "If the

charges are true it is up to the regents
to tales ac'tion.
"This statement by the chairman of
the committee puts the remainder of
the university investigation commit
tee in a difficult position,” Gardner,
a member of the co.mmittee, asserted.
"We offered at the time our report
was made to go Into details of our j
charges against the doctor, and a ma-1
Jorlty of the membership voted to
adopt our report and not go into de
tails.
“The committee did not have in
mind the annihilation of any one man
or any one department. We merely
made a resume of what our
findings disclosed and looked to
public opinion to to the rest. In ,
other words, we depended upon public
opinion to either accept or reject
our suggestions. Public opinion was
our jury.”
Motion Is Killed.
Other members Jumped to their teei
and insisted a personal attack on Doc
tor Condra was not germaine to the
subject at hand, which had to do with
an appropriation for the department
of conservation and soil survey. The
Auten motion to discontinue the ap
propriation was lost by a viva voce
vote.
During the day, the appropriations
bloc received a severe blow, when an
attempt was made to vote $30,400 for
additional land for the Norfolk State
hospital. This was defeated by a vote
of 48 to 41. Klsasser, G. B. Col
lins and O. S. Collins, the three men
leading the fight against the Lark in
Chambers sheriff feeding bill, which
would have saved the taxpayers of
Douglas county approximately $10.
000 annually, voted with the bloc on
this bill.
When the university appropriations
were considered, Yochum of Otoe made
a motion which carried, that the fol
lowing sums included in statements
of university approprltions be wiped
out in the future In setting out ap
propriations for this institution:
University cash funds, $1,951,157;
university endowment income, $175,
223; Morrill fund for agricultural and
mechanical arts, $100,000; Smith Lever
fund. $120,000; agricultural experi
ment station, $60,000.
Would Change Estimates.
"These are revenues of the univer- j
sity which are not raised by taxation
and which in past years have been
included in appropriation estimates of
the university,” Yochum explained.
"It Is misleading to taxpayers and
they think the university costs them
nearly $2,000,000 more than it ac
tually does.”
An addition of $60,000 to the finance
committee's bill for "maintenance and
sewer” at the state fair grounds was
sanctioned by a viva voce vote. Keck
of Polk asserted if the state fair board
had been conservative it would have
had sufficient money on hand and
would not be forced to go to the legis
lature for assistance every two years.
An unsuccessful attempt was made
by Yochum of Otoe to lump normal
school appropriations and permit the
state normal board to follow Its old
course of dividing up appropriations.
The finance committee this year did
the division work for normal schools
itself. Following sre the amounts ap
portioned by the committee for the

Attempt to Set Date for Final

Sp«< ini IMupatch to Omaha Bf«.
I.incoln, April 4.—The Nebraska
state bonus bill, supported by differ
ent veterans’ organizations, propos
ing a ?10.000,000 fund to pay service
men 50 cents a day during the time
of service In the world war, dic'd in
the senate.
An adverse committee report fav
oring Its postponement, which was
adopted In the senate with scarcely
any discussion, spells the end for
chance for legislative action In sub
mitting the bonus issue to popular
vote.
Senator Fries voiced the only ob
jection to the committee report In
definitely postponing the bill. ’’This
proposition should go to the peole
for settlement.” he declared.
Purely Federal Action.
C. B. Anderson, chairman of the
committee, Issued a formal written
statement setting forth tho views Of
the committee. The members of tho
committee consider the bonus pro
posal or adjusted compensation pure
ly a matter for federal action, the
statement set forth.
A new bill to rearrange the course
of study In rural schools, Reed's
measure, which provides that the
subjects now taught in the first eight
grades be spread over a nine-year
term, was made a subject of busirtess
for tomorrow morning. Reed spon
sors the bill on the ground that only
a small percentage of the rural
students continue their courses of
study. A number of other very revo
lutionary changes are proposed In the
bill.
Members of the senate received an
invitation today from Governor and
Mrs. Bryan Inviting them to a recep
tion at the executive mansion next
Monday.
Adjournment Plans Halted.
The first discussion of final ad
journment came today when Senator
Allen moved a committee be appoint
ed to confer with a like committee
from the houae on the subject of ad
journment—not to be later than
April 20. Senator Cooper led the fight
against the adoption of the motion
and the introducer finally withdrew,
when it was apparent that the ma
jority of the members did not share
Allen’s sentiments.
S. S. 147, an Inheritance tax meas
ure, was reported for indefinite post

pending.
These bills were passed by the sen

Architect of Capitol
Replies to Johnson
(Continued front Tag* One >
the worlc on the eapitol," Mr. Webber j
concluded.
Testimony of this so/t, which might !
he considered sensational, caused not :
even a ripple among the investigators, j
who although they will look further |
into the question, were evidently In
clined to make some allowance for the
extreme age of the witness.
Doorknobs Discussed. '
At the morning session, Mr. John
son charged that the architect's speci
fications for locks closed the bidedng
to all except one manufacturer. He
asserted that the specifications for the
doorknobs and trimmings were so in
definite that Jludge & Gunzel, a Lin
coln department store, and another
Lincoln merchant said they ceuld not
bid on them unless they had a special
conference with the architect. Mr.
Goodhue answered that lie had in
mind a special •pattern which he would
design himself.
Numerous items were cited by Mr.
Johnson in which he maintained that
the architect had not protected the
state. He brought up again the fact
that Mr. Goodhue had proposed to let
the contract for all the plumbing at
one time. Mr. Goodhue answered that
this was on the advice of an expert,
who contended that prices were going
up, and that if several contractors
divided the work, if anything went,
wrong, each might lay the blame on
the other.
"Mr. Johnson maintains that plumb
ing prices are going to fall,” said, Mr.
C oodhue. "I hope he is right, for the
commission has let the contract for !
the first unit separately.
If the state suffers a large loss
by reason of the increased cost, or |
if trouble develops after completion
of the building, and’ there Is diffi
culty In fixing the responsibility from
the trouble, I hope the commission
will remember what Mr. Johnson has j
said in his memorandum and this
reply. ’
Big Contract Advisable.
Chairman Wiltse asked If letting the
Plumbing in a single large contract
would not have eliminated some small
plumbing firm.
“It would." the architect replied.
"It is my belief that the state should
endeavor to secure the most com
petent work. We have not provided
for unlimited competition, but have
sought to get bids from the firms
most qualified to handle big work in
a big w^'." He added that plumb- |
ing prices were now much higher.
"You had some special firm in
mind, didn't you?” Chairman Wiltse |
asked.
"I did not," was the reply.
The Johnson charges listed SI
changes in the capitol plans after con
tracts had been let.
Mr. Goodhue defended these by re
ferring to the fact that the capitol
commission was in haste to start con
struction and had saved considerable
money because prices later rose. He
also clashed with Mr. Johnson on the
question of steel prices and construc
tion of acoustic materials and the
stone carving contract.
It Is possible that Sunderland
Bros, of Omaha will be subpoenaed to
testify concerning their efforts to se
cure marble columns for the vestibule.
Mr. Goodhue will resume the stand
tomorrow morning.
