Well, We’re in It.
Ford’s Money Talks.
An American Goes.
You Control 25 Per Cent
^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^
Fellow citizens, remember the
banker that refused to extend
loans for an embarrassed silk mer
chant. “Were you ever in the silk
business?” the merchant asked the
banker. “Never,” that financier
replied. “Well, you are in it now,”
and with that the silk man de
parted.
A good many might say to Uncle
Sam: “Were you ever in the Euro
pean complications? Well, you are
in them now.”
American league of nations
statesmen, disguised for political
purposes in the last big election,
announced that the United States
would join a European conference,
if France with the other countries
would come in. France replied in
diplomatic language, “Will a duck
swim?” And France is in. So are
we.
At last they have the old man
from Yankeeland where they want
him. They will discuss reparations
with him, and unless they are bad
ly mistaken, they will find some
way to tie him up and make him
responsible for payments.
However, there is another elec
tion coming, and if any candidate
is nominated that represents the
United States and not “sorrowing
Europe,” the American league of
Nations statesmen will learn some
thing to their disadvantage.
Debs says Ford wouldn’t do for
president. He doesn’t know Amer
ican history. What of that? Mr.
Hughes is secretary of state,
although he doesn’t remember the
history of the last election, when
a majority of seven millions voted
against mixing up in Europe’s af
fairs. .
It is Ford’s money that talks,
and that the people want, says
Debs. Possibly, but Ford’s money
talks in an unusual way. For in
stance, people lack houses. He an
nounces that he will build 30,000
houses, near his Dearborn factory,
and sell them at about cost.
Money talking in that way at
tracts attention.
Frank B. Kellogg of Minnesota
goes to London as ambassador,
and President Qoolidge made a
good choice.
Mr. Kellogg is the right kind of
American, from a good part of the
country. The English will see in
him what they like, namely, an
American citizen, not an imitation
Englishman.
They saw that type of man
when Franklin was over there.
They have not often seep the type
in our embassy.
Dr. W. J. Mayo says that man
controls himself to the extent of
26 per cent. Unconscious mind
controls 76 per cent. That helps
various kinds of healers. They
dig through the outer conscious
ness into the subconscious mind
and get results sometimes amaz
ing. _
It’s a good thing to let our sub
conscious mind attend to its busi
ness, 75 per cent of the body,
while we attend to the 25 per cent
that reads books, makes money,
invents new religions, runs poli
tics and looks after the family.
In Texas, Norwood Huckaby and
Charles A. Williams stood toe to
foe in the dusk, held each the other
by the left hand, a pistol in- each
right hand, and the shooting be
gan. , .
This recalls Benvenuto Cellini,
and days further back when all our
ancestors fought in that fashion.
They had to be close enough to hit
each other with a flint fastened to
the end of a club.
Lord Northcliffe’s brother,
needing $40,000,000 to finance a
new batch of newspapers, offered
stock. The public subscribed for
$500,000,000 dollars worth. That’s
progress since Grub street days.
No better security than a good
newspaper; no more voracious
money-eater than a bad newspaper.
Newspapers are subject' to the re
call, as officials should be.
If the election of anybody for
president would hurt your busi
ness or your feelings, Lloyd’s of
‘England will insure you against
that election. One co’ncern paid
down $38,000 and Lloyd’s agreed
to pay $400,000 in case of Ford’s
election—issuing a policy which
is a good way of disguising a bet.
Lloyd’s will bet on anything re
spectable. When Northcliffo of
fered $50,000 for a flight across
the English channel) that makf s
you smile now) he insured himself
against loss with Lloyd’s. They
paid $50,000 to the successful
flyer.

Omaha Banker
Seeks Parole
From State Pen
Plea of W. V. Mathews for
Clemency Carries State
ments From Creditors
of Defunct Bank.
Special Dispatch to The Omaha Bee,
Lincoln, Oct. 28.—W. T. Mathews
of Omaha, former president of the
Pioneer State bank, is included in
the list of inmates of the penitentiary
and reformatory who will appear be
fore the parole board November 13.
Mathews, who is serving a sentence
of from one to 10 years for embezzle
ment. was sentenced March 6, 1922,
following the failure of the Pioneer
State bank the year previous.
Chief charge against Mathews was
that the Pioneer State bank had pur
chased $200,000 worth of Colonial
Timber company bonds from the
Guarantee Securities company, an
organization that he had founded in
1913, and that the bonds were not
worth their face value. The state
also contended that the timber com
pany did not have good title to West
Viriginla lands which secured the
bonds.
Creditors Aid Case.
Mathews pleaded guilty, he de
clares, so the case might be closed
before assets of the bank were dis
sipated. He maintains he is innocent
and has never benefited from the
transaction. He faces a five-year
sentence at the federal penitentiary
of Leavenworth, Kan., when released
here on a government charge.
Attached to his plea for parole are
statements from 150 creditors of the
bank, urging his release.
Homer P. Raff, former officer of
the Omaha police force, is another
who will come before tty: board. He
was sentenced May 20, 1920, to three
to 15 years for robbery. At his trial
it was alleged that he and a com
panion went to the home of Mrs.
Drakulich, where the friend was to
ask for liquor, after which Raff was
to arrest her for illegal sale. Mrs.
Drakulick finally compromised for
$50, but Raff, seeing that she had
more money, held her up at the point
of his gun and took $100 in all.
Denies His Guilt.
He denies his guilt, stating that he
had put the house under arrest and
asked his friend to summon the patrol
wagon. Before it was done, the
woman gave him $50 to drop the
action. This is his second hearing.
In his petition for favorable action
he states that he saw service In
France and that he has a mother and
three small sisters dependant upon
him.
Ora Brown, 35, of Omaha, sentenced
to 20 years on July 23, 1919, denies
that he is guilty of tho crime for
attack upon a 7-year-old girl, Kd

Republicans Hold
Banquet at Lincoln
Lincoln, Oct. 28.—Theodore Roose
velt was able to Influence people be
cause he practiced what he taught,
Frank H. Gaines, Omaha attorney,
told 200 persons who attended a re
publican banquet Saturday night.
"He did not believe in that cross
materialism that teaches that In
wealth there Is safety, nor in the
pride of culture which too often Is
a hotbed of bolshevism and the
thousand heresies that distract and
disturb,” he said.
Charles H. Sloan, speaking on "Our
Stand In 1024,” d»,#'ared that tho
tariff would be one of the big issues
of the next campaign, and that tho
party would not shirk Its duty In
providing a measure of compensation
for the sacrifices and losses of sol
diers In tho world war.
A belief In parties and party or
ganization was urged by Judge E. B.
Perry, chairman of the republican
state committee. Public opinion will
solve most of the questions, accord
ing to A. N. Mathers, speaker of the
1922 legislature.

Charles Ray Is
Greeted by Large
Crowd in Omaha
The Omaha Bee to Award
Cash Prizes for Best Pic
tures of Famous
Movie Star.
Charles Ray, famous movie star,
faced a battery o| cameras of all
sizes In the hands of more than 200
persons at noon yesterday as he
alighted from a train at the Burling
ton station.
"Is this light all right?" Ray asked
as the cameras began to click. Then
he walked over to the south side of
the station and stood on the stone cop
ing at the entrance, anxious to please.
"There Is always something about
a camera that makes you want to
smile," said the movie star. "Look
this way, Charlie," and "Atta boy,"
were some of the cordial calls from
the crowd. Mis. Ray, who is accom
panying her husband on his first tour
of the "speakles." stood beside him
looking very attractive in a moleskin
coat and black satin hat.
Mr. Ray, who is 32 years old, has
been married six years. He appears
In public Just as shy and sensitive as
he seems in the moving pictures. He
is tall and slim. Ills ready smile
beams upon everyone. Crowds at
every stop have met him since start
ing on tour In his play, "The Olrl I
Loved,” from Ban Diego in Septem
ber. En route to Omaha this morn
ing the train was stopped at Pacific
Junction to let Ray greet the crowd
that had gathered to see him.
Father Opposed Movie Career.
Mr. Ray has won distinction in the
moving picture field, although he said
his father was very much opposed to
such a career. Ten years ago his
father Insisted that he take a busi
ness course snd "amount to some
thing,” since he refused to go to
college, Charlie did take the course
which fitted him to become a book
keeper but kept on with his work in
the theaters of the western coast.
“My father told me I had better
learn to take care of money If I ever
expected to have any,” said Ray. "I
had very little at that time, for my
salary was only $35 a week and I had
to buy my hoots for the western
thrillers in which I played. Thomas
Ince was my boss then.”
Ray's last picture, made under the
banner of the Charles Ray Producing
company, Is "The Courtship of Miles
Standlsh."
Criticizes Censorship.
Kay is very bitter in his feelings
toward the movie censors. They are
spoiling real pictures, In h)s opinion.
This generation doesn’t appreciate
moving pictures, according to Ray.
The moving picture Industry Is in Its
Infancy and must suffer on that ac
count, he said.
In the party with Ray are Frederic
Sullivan, counsel, and Albert A. Kid
der, jr., general manager of the
Charles Ray Producing company.
There nre 33 players in the cast of
the play “The Girl X Loved,’’ In which
Ray will be seen at the Brandeis
theater the first three days of this
week.
A prise of S25 will be awarded by
The Omaha Bee for the best picture
of Charles Ray taken at the station.
Prints must be In the officer of The
Evening Bee by fl tonight.
A box at the Brandeis theater Tues
day matinee or night for Mr. Ray's
production Is the second prise. Two
scats each will be awarded for the
third, fourth and fifth pictures select
ed. Charlie himself will be one of the
Judges.

Staff Correspondent The Omaha Bee.
Lincoln, Oct. 28.—If someone will
kindly detail to Governor Bryan the
political plans of Senator G« )rge Nor
ris. tkero is some chance that the
governor may save the few locks that
He beneath his black skull cap. As
It now stands, what with scratching
his semi-bald pate in bewilderment,
and the fear that Norris will again
be a candidate for the senate, he Is
like to put his hair in such shape
that even an optimistic barber will
eye him with a sense of impending
failure.
The governor wants to hop, but he
doesn’t want to trip over the sena
tor while so doing. He is strongly
averse to playing a game of follow
the leader, with himself cast for a
secondary role, and to prevent such
a state of affairs he is Instituting
persistent inquiries regarding the
senator.
Hardly a day passes that either
Mr. Bryan or one of his trusted fol
lowers does not attempt a little cas
ual pumping of someone whom they
think has read the Norris mind. Oc
casionally a newspaper article crops
out in some democratic, organ that
is designed to force the senator's
hand.
In the meantime. Senator Norris
adheres to his original statement
that he will not be a candidate for
re-election, yet C. AY. Bryan finds it
hard to believe. There is no question
that he would like to believe It, but
his political intuition refuses to per
mit. and until his continued probing
reveals something definite he will
hesitate to announce his candidacy
for the United States senate.
As a part of the routine news given
out at the state house this week was
Legion Urges
Shutdown of
Army Hospitals
Veterans" Bureau Accused of
Inhuman Treatment of
Patients in Western
Centers.
By International Newt Service.
Washington, Oct. 28. — America's
disabled veterans have been subjected
to "brutality and curses'' in many
United States veterans' bureau hos
ritals, according to charges made by
the American Legion in a special re
port to the senate Investigating com
mittee.
Tho conditions of the alleged "in
human treatment ’ became ao bad In
some hospitals It led to almost open
rebellions among the patients," the
report added.
It further charged widespread traf
ficking in drugs, narcotics and liquor
among wounded soldiers.
To remedy the situation the legion
officials propose to reorganize the
whole hgapitklizatlon system, eliminat
ing all government hospitals for the
treatment of acute diseases and the
dismissal of all army, navy, marine,
public health and reserve corps
physicians, with the substitution of
private physicians.
Tell of Western Hospitals.
The legion committee's report, deal
ing in detail with western hospitals,
will be Introduced as evldenco next
week when tho Investigating commit
tee resumes sessions. Further reports
from other sections, it was said, will
be submitted to tho committee later.
The remedy of tho legion was:
“We urge shendonment of all
army, navy, marine and veterans'
bureau hospitals for treatment of
acute diseases and the entering into
contract with first-class hospitals in
various sections of the country, to
care for this class of patients.
“We also urge abandonment of the
public health service officers, tho
mffllcal reserve corps and civil serv
ice medical men In tho manning of
hospitals and outpatient clinics and
In tho extending of ex-service men.
In lieu of the services which have
been abandoned We recommend the
appointment tinder adequate salaries
civilian, non-rlvll surgeons, medical
men and specialists,
I’eddled I.lquor and Drugs.
“The unsympathetic and brutal at
titude assumed by many doctors
toward their patients is responsible
for much discontent on the part of
the patients,“ the report stated. “Hi
fact, It has led to almost open re
bellions In several of the hospitals.
Many of tho medical staff members
mistake brutality for firmness, and
expect to maintain control and re
sped by InsultIng and cursing the
patients."
(Specifically mentioning the Camp
Koarney (Cal.) hospital, tits report de
clared:
"There has been evidence of ped
dlers of both liquor and drugs hover
Ing about the hospital and selling to
patients. These are smuggled Into
the hospital."
m
a statement from Tax Commissioner
Smith, in which the commissioner
proves to his own satisfaction, at
least, that the state is staggering
under the burden of national taxes
and that the state tax is an infinite
simal fraction of the load. His fig
ures are based on the sums collect
ed in Nebraska in 1922, and are in
teresting in that Smith's party elect
ed the governor on a shriek against
state taxation.
The only possible conclusions are
that Smith and all the other Smiths
that helped elect the governor, erred
in their campaign slogan, or else the
state taxes for 1923 wjn’t bear suffi
cient scrutiny and they are getting
ready to pass the buck to the national
government.
Even ardent democrats are becom
ing annoyed at the amount of time
Governor Bryan la giving to matters
not included by the constitution in
the list of duties of the governor of
Nebraska.
At the present time the governor
is up to his neck in the coal business,
he has flirted with gasoline prices,
and he tells a well known sand and
gravel man that he is responsible
for the reduced price of those com
modities. They all take time, and
the governor is not authorised by the
statutes to engage, in an official
capacity, in any one of these busi
nesses.
It will be recalled that me govern
or went to the governor's conference
with President Coolidge only after
continual hesitation, pleading the
press of state business and particu
larly the coal business. Once he did
get under way for Washington he
managed to And time to Interview
Illinois coal operators In Chicago, and
it would be Interesting to know If
his coal business Is chnrged for any
fraction of the expense of his trip
east. Since he handles It In the only
legal way possible, ns a private citi
zen of Nebraska, It would seem only
fair that the Ptate not l»e called upon
to pay the entire cost of a trip dur
ing which private business wits trans
acted.
Perhaps the governor Is saving the
citizens of Nebraska thousands of
dollars on their winter coal bill, but
undoubtedly some organization of
public spirited citizens could handle
the buplijees as well, and allow the
governor to devote all his time to the
duties of the state.
Polk county has at last satisfied
the powers that be with its petition
for tubercular Inspection of Its breed
cattle, and the work will be started
at once. Douglas and Hall counties
are now at work revising petitions
that were rejected, and with that of
Polk county to servo as a model,
they should shortly he included in
the list of counties entitled to In
spection.
The hoard of control adheres to its
original decision, that old soldiers rtt
Gradn Island shnll either move Into
the home or pay for their coal If they
will live outside.
The governor's appointee on the
board is as strog as either of the
other two members for saving on
coal, while the governor has announc
ed that so strongly io he opposed to
making tho veterans pay that he
will head a suiaicriptlon list to meet
the cost of filling their coni bunkers.

A musing tl« some mind* can change
And all their ideas rearrange.
—Jumper the Hare.
Jumper ami Mr. Grouse Meet.
At the bang, bang of the terrible
gun so near him, Juniper the Hare
jumped before he had time to think.
He knew that hunter didn’t know he
was there. Rut the sudden bang,
bang startled him so that he just
couldn't help jumping. Having jump
ed, of course, lie took to his long
heels and away he went, lipperty-llp
perty-lip.
Jumper paid no heed to the airec
tion in which he was running, and
by chance he ran in the same direc
tion that Mr. and Mrs. Grouse had
flown. N%w, when Mr. and Mrs.
OrouHe fly they seldom go far before
coming down to the ground. Then
often they run some distance. That
is what they had done this time.
Jumper was soon over his fright be
cause, you see, he knew' that that
hunter was not after him. So after
a few minutes of fast running, he
slowed down, then hopped along
rather slowly. He was trying to make
up his mind in which hiding place he
would spend the day.
"Hello, Jumper," said a low voice,
which came from under a little hem
lock tree.
“Hello yourself”’ cried Jumper,
stopping.
Mr. Grouse poked his head out from
under the branches. 'Have you seen
anything of a hunter with a terrible
gun?" he asked anxiously.
Jumper nodded. "I saw him when
he made that terrible gun go bang,
bang,” said he. "You and Mrs. Grouse
were very lucky.”
"I should say so!" exclaimed Mr.
Grouse. "He didn't hit us that time.
X guess we were flying too fast for
him. How I do hate those hunters
with terrible guns!"
"You ought not to hate this one,”
said Jumper.
“Why not, I should like to know?”
demanded Mr. Grouse rather sharply.
"Because he saved the life of either
you or Mr. Grouse," replied Jumper
mildly.
Mr. Grouse stared very hard at
Jumper. lie wasn't quite sure wheth
er or not Jumper was joking. Jumper
didn't look as if he were Joking. He
looked Just as if he meant what he
had said. “Didn't you see him shoot
at us?" demanded Mr. Grouse.
"No,” replied Jumper. "No, I didn't
see him shoot at you. He didn't shoot
at you. He shot at Darter the Hawk,
and if he hadn't Darter 1 certainly
would have caught either you or Sirs.
Grouse.
"I don't believe you know what
you’re talking about,” said Mr.
Grouse. ’’No sir, I don’t believe you
know what you’re talking about. That
hunter was out after us."
"I guess he may have been after
you in the first place, but he chang
ed hlg mind," said Jumper. "He was
sitting on an old log right near where
you and Mrs.' Grouse were taking
your dust bath, and was watching
you all the time. He could have shot
‘‘Hello Jumper,” said a low voice
which came from under a little hem
lock tree.
you as easily aB could be. But he
didn’t. He kept that terrible gun
across his knees until Darter the
Hawk appeared. Then he shot at
Darter to save you. It’s a lucky thing
for you and Mrs. Grouse that that
hunter was in the Green Forest with
his terrible gun this morning. I know
because I saw it all. I was right
there."
“Excuse me. Jumper, I must go
hunt up Mrs. Grouse and tell her.”
exclaimed Mr. Grouse, and started off
at once.
