New Homes Are
Sought by Buyers
Owners of Old Homes Must
Accept Depreciation if
They Sell. » *.
A statement made last week by J.
L. Schroeder of the Schroeder Invest
ment company, Is regarded by most
realtors as a correct analysis of the
real estate market In Omaha, as It
relates to homes.
Mr. Schroeder said: "The law of
supply and demand has ceased to be
the controlling factor in the price of
homes to the extent that it was in
1919 and 1920.
"The price of building material and
the cost of labor are much more im
portant items than they were three
or four years ago. Since the shortage
of homes which existed three or four
years ago does not exist now in this,
or any other city, the labor and ma
terial costs have a much bigger in
fluence than they did at that time.
The labor and material costs were
made considerably higher by the
shortage.
"The condition of the market at
present, particularly the supply and
demand part of it, is such that old
houses are selling considerably below
the cost of a new house. Ar.y home
buyer will prefer a new house to an
old one. He will not buy an old
house unless he can get it for less
than it will cost to build a new one.
'The result of this condition is
that persons wanting to sell their
homes are not successful In doing so
unless they are willing to take the
proper depreciation.
"Most buyers of homes believe that
there will not be any further notice
able reductions in the cost of building
material nnd labor, so a great many
of them are considering buying or
building new houses."

Crowe Attacks
“Bedtime Tales”
Theory That Slayers Are
“Emotionally Infantile,"
Bunk, Says Prosecutor.
t f . -
By <j>EORUE R. HOLMES.
Inter nations I News berries Staff
Correspondent.
Chicago, Aug. 2.—Two pictures ol
Nfathan F. Loepold, Jr., and Richard
A. Loeb, the gay young collegian!
who kidnaped and killed little Bobby
Franks, "just tor a thrill," were hung
today in Judge John R. Caverly'i
crowded courtroom, where they face
the noose or a life time In prison for
their crime.
One of them was painted by medi
cal science. It displayed "Dickie" and
"Babe" as two small boys, emotion
filly about 5, still living in a world
of phantasy, i. dream-world peopled
by cowboys, detectives, teddy hears,
jam and Shetland ponies. This picture
was painted and hung in the court
room by the lawyers and the alien
ists. who are seeking to save their
necks from the noose.
The other picture was painted by
the state of Illinois. It presents the
young slayers as grown-up men, in
tellectual, sophisticated, educated,
wealthy and sane and responsible,
under the law, for what the agents
of the state describe as the most
diabolical, cold-blooded murder In the
history of American criminology.
The choice between these two paint
ings lies with Judge John R. Caverly.
“Not Blood, Rut Jam."
"They are not murderen," say!
State's Attorney Robert E. Crowe
with fine scorn In his voice. "No,
they are little boys caught In the
pantry stealing |im. That Is not
blood on their hands. It Is Jam.
"They are just two little boys who
still believe In Santa Claus."
And the state's attorney put a final
dab of paint on the picture.
"Bunk”’ he says
"They are going to get away with
no bedtime stories here!"
It was in this frame of mind that
the state's attorney continued to at
tack the testimony of Dr. William A
White.
For the first time since this un
usual trial started a distinct line ol
cleavage has been drawn between
the two defnndnnts.
Neither the state nor the defense
has heretofore attempted to show that
"Rube" and "Dickie" are different
or that there was any division of re
sponsibility in their commmlssinn ol
the crime.
But the microscopes which the
I alienists put on them revealed, ac
j cording to Dr. White, a marked dtf
ference between them.
Loeb, he said, has been heading
toward a career of crime and destruc
lion since childhood.
“Complement Each Bother.”
Leopold, on the other hand, while
afflicted with the same disorders that
were noted in Loeb in boyhood, really
has "a constructive mind" and was
making steady progress toward nor
mality when the Franks murder was
carried out, according to the alienists.
Neither one, Dr. White thinks,
would have been capable alone of
kidnaping the boy, hammering his
brains out with a chisel and then
stuffing his naked little body Into a
drain pipe.
As Dr. White figured tt out, after
examining them, it was the criminal
tendenclea of "Dickie" that Inspired
the whole'affair, and the keen Intel
led of "Babe" that supplied the In
geniousness of the plot.
"They complemented each other,”
Is the way Dr. White expressed tt.
Me expressed the opinion not only
that the crime was of I,oeh’s con
ception, but also that it was Loeb
who actually swung the chisel on the
Franks boy s head—from behind.
Just what this line of demarcation
drawn between the young slayers
means was a subject that received
considerable discussion today among
the courtroom fans.
To some It suggested that It might
means the tinose for one youth and
prison for the other. The state, how
ever, does not differentiate between
the two eludents. For Its purposes
Leopold and l,oeh are equally guilty
and equally responsible for thedenlh
of Bobby Franks, despite the differ
enres In their minds revealed bv
psychiatrical microscopes

Proof of Value of
Nebraska Farms \
Given in Report
Farmers Tell of Harvesting
100 Acres of Wheat Aver
aging 35 Bushels •
Per Acre.
Along with reports of land sales in
Nebraska and Iowa, there are reports
which contain In general reasons why
farmers are buying land.
The following statement from In
dianola, Neb., Is a type of reports
coming from all sections of the state:
“Fred Schmidt, farmer living north
of this place, has completed the har
vest of 100 acres of wheat averaging
35 bushels per acre, and testing 62
pounds to the bushel."
The land sale reports coming to
the Omaha Real Estate board last
week included announcement of the
sale of 160 acre farm near Jasper, S.
D., for $150 per acre or $24,000. The
farm was sold at public auction, and
the price was established largely by
the producing ability of the land.
A farm near Blair last week was
sold for $200 per acre, and another
quarter section in Otoe county
brought $22,000. A report from Pierce
says that 160-acre farm there was
sold last week for $21,600 cash.
The largest farm deal in this sec
tion reported last week was from
Sibley, la., where a 319-acre farm,
two miles from that village, sold *for
$207.50 per acre, or a total of $66,000.
European Moneys
Suffer Slightly
Decrease in Gold Reserves Is
Blamed by Peters Na
tional Bank.
European moneys. In the last year,
have suffered only flight declines In
value, acoordlpg to a table prepared
by the Peters National bank, with
the exception of the German and
Polish paper marks, which have col
lapsed completely and have no value.
From July 1, 1923, to July J, 1924.
there was a decline in the value of
the Norwegian money standard from
16 cents to 13 cents, and of the Dan
ish coin from approximately 17 cents
to 16 rents. Their normal values are
27 cents.
The Swedish krone, on the contra
ry has risen from 26.52 cents to 26.60
cents. Its par is 27 cents and. of all
European moneys It is nearest par.
Even the money of Swftxerland stands
at only 17.35 cen's (par 19.5). A year
ago It was 17.76 cents.
Italian money underwent only s
slight decline, from 4.45 cents to 4.35
rents (par 19.5 cents). The French
franc dropped from 6 12 cents to 5.25
cents. Belgian francs dropped from
5.23 cents to 4 65 rents. Par is 19.5
cents.
Increase In circulation of papei i
money and decrease in gold reserves j
are responsible for these declines |

Daniel Butler Heaves Fedora Into
Gubernatorial Ring; Climbs Aboard
Robert La Follette’s Band Wagon
The state central committee of the
progressive party came into Omaha
yesterday, and before they completed
their business Dan Butler discovered
that he still has the gubernatorial
Itch, and that T,a Follette Is the logi
cal man for president of these United
States.
Butler was called upon by the
progressives to lead the party that
had, as its first nominee, Charles W.
Bryan, and Butler accepted.* The fact
that Butler, not so very many weeks
ago. was pleading with the demo
crats to name a dyed-in-the wool party
Hrs Notified! '
Butler was notified of Ills nomi
nation by W. H. Green in the fol
lowing sententious telegram:
"Hell's poppin'. Sit tight. Eet
the heathen rage. Keep your pow
der dry. When you return, rome
with your sleeves rolled up for a
beautiful shindy.”
v_/
man as Its gubernatorial nominee
apparently Bid not deter the Butler
mind from deciding that its owner
was the candidate to lead the pro
gressive party to the slate house at
Lincoln.
And now Butler Is a candidate for
governor on a ticket whose builders
and fond owners are W H. Green
and J. L Reebe of Omaha.
In addition to naming Butler as Its
candidate, the progressive party
gathered Its Ivolts and hurled them In
handfuls at democrats who are also
candidates on the Green Beebe
ticket. J. J. Thomas, candidate for
senator; C. W. Pool, candidate for
serietary of state; F. L, Bolen, candi
date for railway commissioner; John
If. Morehead, Edgar Howard and A.
C. Shallenbergsr, candidates for con
gress, were told to come out for I .a
Follette and Wheeler or g»t off the
ticket.
What is more, these demo progres
sive cahdidates were asked to make
public their preference for the Wls
lonsin.Montana combination, which
Is an obvious impossibility.
Finally, ths progressives banded
over their pa- ty. body and soul, to
the convention of I.a Follette men
to be held In Grand Island in the
near future, "In order that the Ijs
Follette for president movement In
Nebraska he placed In absolute con
trol of the progressive party organi

There is no mention In the reaolu

of placing n complete ticket before
the voters of the state, and it is pre
sumed that, with the exception of
Butler, the ticket will Include only
those piogresaives already nominal
ed and I.a Follette and Wheeler.
The progressive rarty. If It sicom
plishea nothing else In Nebraska, will
send a lot of democrats who are
lager enough for office to accomodate
themselves to two parties scurrying
for cover. And it will check the am

and a harder one for Norton, who is

ticket because he had decided that
John W. Davie needed him more

Mr. Green offered the following
comment Saturday morning:
“Norton is not a progressive nor a
democrat. He is simply a political
