not bear to see anything happen to

Lover Gives Wife
Back to Husband
1 rgetl Her to Return to Mate
He Had Believed Divorced,
He Testifies.
In spite of his lovs for Velora
KreMer, who lie believed was di
vorced. and with whom lie was ar
rested Friday night at the Plaza hotel,
1‘loyd Italic of Monroe, Neb., advised
h r in return to her husband when
lie learned that she had not been
divorced, he testified Saturday morn
ing in police court,
Shortly after they became intimate,
lie said, he learned that her husband,
Stephen, was serving a penitentiary
s' lttence on a charge of forgery, for
which he had been arrested at
Marshalltown, Ta. tic urged her then,
he said, to return to her husband,
and if he declined to receive her,
then to come back lo him.
Three wc-eks ago the husband was
pardoned. When he discovered his
wife and J.al;e together in Omaha,
ho caused their arrest. On lake's

another fraudulent check given to a
local department store.
Tn court Saturday morning, the
husband agreed to receive buck his
wife, on condition that l^ake be sent
to the penitentiary.
r,ake was sentenced to 15 days in

Slate Is Cleaned
N'ew Turk, N'ov. 10.—With the con
viction that lie has accomplished all
his tasks abroad—had "wiped the
slate clean.” as he expressed it—
Heorge Harvey, retiring American
ambassador to the court of St. James
returned home late yesterday on the
Aqultania, hungry for the home
rooking of his Aunt Hannah Martin,
who lives in Peacham, Vt.
Mr. Harvey retired, he said, be
cause he wanted to come home, but
he would not say whether he would
aid any candidate in the 1924 presi
uential campaign.
Kor himself, he was through with
public office. As before he wenf
abroad, be was still opposed to the
1'nlted Slates entering the league of
nations and any interpretation that
President Coolidge and Secretary
Hughes are working for that end
now is, In his opinion, erroneous.
”1 have very strong hopes that
something is gulng to transpire in
r connection with the latest reparation
conference proposals in w hic^| we will
play a very considerable part,” he
said, "and that it will have a decided
Influence In achleclng the peace and
prosperity of the world.”

Russians Ready
w
for Another War
Further Pressure by France
on Germany Would
Start It.
If France moves In on Germany, it
will have to face the Russian army,
according to the observations of W.
II. Green, who returned Friday to
his home, 3034 ('ass, after a three
months’ tour of Germany, Russia and
Poland.
The Russian government, which
he found firmly established, believes
that if France conquers any more
German territory it will use (his as
a base against the soviet republic.
Accordingly, Russia is maintaining a
^yell-equipped army of volunteers,
ready to engage in a new European
war whenever Paris applies the torch.
America Safe.
Sir. Oreen, who is secretary of the
tolerated farm-labor party, says lie
>an see no possibility of any over
turn in America, such as was seen In
Russia.
Conditions in Russia, lie believes,
are better than they were in the days
i<f the osar, and the people are satis
fied. The communists are iii th“
minority, lie says, for only men and
women who are educated and intelli
gent are allowed membership in that
group.
“The railway conductor in charge
of our train from lierlin to Konigs
burg told us that bis month's wages
would buy two pounds of coffee or
eight pounds of butter. During a
trip aroand lierlin 1 saw thousands
of people wultlng in lines over a block
long waiting to be doled out a few
potatoes to sustain life.
Women Do Much Work.
".As you cross the border from Ger
many to those so-called republics I
which were supposed to be made safe!
for democracy you discover that they
were made safe for transportation
titrates Instead and as the train
draws into the station you are met
with more gilt braid and tinsel than
George Primrose would have used
to equip a negro minstrel troupe.
"The woman custom oflicial is the
first Innovation you meet as the train
crosses the border into Russia. Her
deft fingers are a pleasing contrast
from what you have just gone
through. The woman street car con
ductor next meets you and having
heard so many stories nhout the lax
morals of ihc feminine species in
Russia, you are fearful that an at
tempt may he made to date you in
public, only to discover that no more
attention Is paid to you than If you
were a bag of straw.
Interpreter Knew Ohio lev
“I had my own interpreter, a young
man who had lived in North and
South America for It years, and who
told me that in all of his travels he
only found two toll bridges, and that
one of these was lietvvcrii Omaha and
Council Bluffs. I traveled across the
Kusstan republics by train to Odessa
and from there had a 400 mile auto
trip inland.
“I talked to 10 acres of people in
the red «t|Uare In the e-i|iosition
grounds two weeks ago last .Sunday
and made the statement that from my
impressions of the spirit of the people
as expressed by the manifestation
when laird Curzon's Insulting note
was received and on other occasions,
that 1 did not think that the united
armies of the world could invade Bus
si.a at lids time.
I'rench and tiermsiis Together.
“The Farmers' and Worker's con
pre'-s to which I was sent as a dele

features. One was the challenge to
the Kngliwh speaking palters ot
North America and Great Britain
that the peoples of Germany and
France were flying at each others
throats. The congress presented a
German delegation of "3 members

11 delegates from France living in
