Address Put Off
Until This Noon
Bavarian Nobleman Irritated
Over Preference Given by
Chamber of Commerce to
Children’s Chorus.
Count Hugo von Eerchenfeld. of
Munich, Bavaria, Germany, who was
to speak at the Chamber of Com
merce yesterday, arrived in Omaha
yesterday morning to find that he
was without a noonday speaking
date.
The count's speech was postponed
until today because those in charge
of the visit of the Bakule school chil
dren of Czecho slovakia decided the
children and the count should not ap
pear on the same program at the
chamber yesterday noon.
"t can’t understand why such ac
tion was taken," said the count, show
ing some irritation. "I would have
had no objection to sharing the pro
gram with the children, and I think
they might have benefited by hear
ing me. The strange part of it is
that Bohemia was fighting with us
against the Russians during the war."
Says Bermans Bitter.
The count hesitated before reply
ing when asked concerning the fol
lowing statement made recently by
Field Marshal von Hindenberg: "We
will get revenge if it takes 100 years.
History repeats itself. What I wish
more than anything else in the world
is that T might again take up arms
against France."
“Von Hindenberg is a soldier," re
plied the count. "He represents his
own private opinion in that state
ment. But since the Ruhr affair be
gan a large part of the German peo
ple feel very hitter against the
French.
“During the war the Germans hated
the English worse than they hated
the French. Now they look to Eng
land in the hope that she will inter
vene and put a stop to France's oc
cupation. I don't favor armed inter
vention, but rather a banding of na
tions together to exercise moral and
financial power to stop France.”
League Unsatisfactory.
The count called attention to the
conviction of Germans for shoot
ing a French officer, expressing the
opinion that in reality French sol
diers shot the officer. He declared
such incidents are unavoidable, how
ever, when "five divisions of men are
sent into peaceful cities."
Asked for an opinion on the pro
posed entering of the United States
into the world court, the count said:
"I don't personally like to see the
United States mixing into petty mat
ters of Europe. She means too much
«s a unit. 8o far as the world court
is concerned, it may be that the United
Htatea should enter it, unless the court
is too closely affiliated with the league
of nations, which In my opinion is
very unsatisfactory in its present
form."
Seeks Solidarity.
"I am not a cloudy pacifist, hut 1
would like to sec a. solidarity between
nations which would help to end
wars," continued the count. "It
would be too strong a statement for
me to say that another war is impos
silile. however. Resides, it is out of
my line to talk on these subjects. I
am here for the benefit of German
and Austrian Child feeding. I may be
included in the class in Germany
which is somewhat licttcr off finan
cially, hut my own 9-year-old boy was
undernourished tiniil I brought him
to this country with me."
One hundred ami twenty tickets at
M2 each were sold for a banquet
ih honor of the count at the German
home last night. The count was in
Omaha, before the war, he said.

Widow’s Hidden
Savings Missing
Nearly Half $15,000 Secreted
in Store Building Gone,
Son Says.
What became of nearly half of the
$15,000 which Mrs. Dora Lena Sind
berg, 80, says she had hidden away
In her rooms in the rear of a grocery
store on North Twenty-fourth street,
is the subject of investigation in prog
less by M. Simberg of Newport Beach,
Cal., her son.
More than $8,000 was found in the
building, in various hiding places, by
members of the Jewish Welfare feder
ation while the aged woman was suf
fering from burns recently in Wise
Memorial hospital. Her apparent
fear lest she be robbed prompted the
search.
Simberg said Thursday that he had
sent his mother money regularly over
a period of 20 years, and that it was
quite possible she had saved the
amount she is alleged to have secret
ed in her rooms. He said he made
a strike during the Cripple Creek
gold rush and that he is now an elec
trical contractor. He plans to take
his mother back to California with
him. or to build her a home here.
“My mother wired me two weeks
ago to come." said Simberg, "saying
that much of the money she had sav
ed over a period of 40 years was
gone. I sent my brother. Mike, and
followed him here Thursday."
Mrs. Simberg's husband died two
veais ago. She was thought to be
destitute and accepted charity from
welfare workers.
