    Labor, Church on
f Friendly Terns
Clergy Recognizing Right of
. Collective Bargaining,
Says I nion Head.
Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 21.—Com
plete sympathy with the movement
ttir closer understanding and friend
lier feeling between churches and
labor unions was expressed l>y James
M. Lynch, president of the Inter
national Typographical union, in a
(Statement issued here today.
“The modern industrial struggle is
Well deserving of serious considera
tion by every institution interested in
ethics and human happiness," said
Lynch. “It has ever been a source
of disappointment to American labor
leaders that so many clergymen have
chosen to ignore the case of the work
ing man, or worse still, to applaud
the social program of the exploiter.
Fortunately, powerful men in the
churches are coining to give their at
tention to the labor movement and
consequently to sympathize with the
aspirations of organized labor.
Labor Reciprocates.
“Labor is quick to reciprocate this
Interest. In New York we find
Eishop William T. Manning express
ing from his pulpit appreciation of
aid offered by organized labor in rais
ing funds for completion of the great
cathedral. In Toledo, O., the council
of churches has invited labor leaders
to address meetings of the Ministers’
union. In Bakersfield, Cal., Biehop
L. Sanford, preaching at St. Paul's
_ Episcopal church, deprecates the ‘dis
^ graceful’ manner in which the 'Bet
ter America federation’ attacks the
trade union movement.
“Fear is blamed by Bishop Sanford
for the unrest and unhappiness in
our economic and social life. Each
week, the bishop told his hearers, a
weekly letter reaches ills desk from
the ’labor-hating' organization, in
veighing against combination of
workere In their own defense. 'Such
bitter words, so full of hatred,' said
the bishop, ‘could only create the
trouble against which they protest.’
Seat of Malady.
"With exceptional shrewdness the
bishop ha* laid his finger upon the
seat of the aocial malady. Men live
and work together in happiness only
when there Is a mutual sense of se
curity, and when good will rules.
There la a fighting spirit In men that
precludes peace while men suffer ftr
iustipe at the hands of their fellows.
The eapltallst who hepes to crush In
to humble acceptance of want and
defeated aspirations is only heaping
fuel «*l the flree of combativeness.
Thle type Of capitalist Is usually kept
by hla personal concerns from gain
ing aa understanding of philosophy,
psychology or any other branch of
knowledge bearing upon the task he
undertake*. It 1« proper that preach
ara and aU others, whose training and
understanding fit them for the job,
should show the way.
Another Labor Champion.
"Rev. Oren H. Baker, pastor of a
Baptist church In Morgantown. W.
^ Va., has arisen as a champion's.! la
bor’s right to organize. In his state
some organizations have demanded
that labor organizers be driven from
the state.
’’The church is bound to' condemn
these proposals of certain business in
terests,’ this minister declares. ‘Let
It be remembered that individuals
cannot maintain harmony with God
until they have succeeded in effect
ing proper adjustments to one an
other.’ "

AUTO SHOW GAS PLOT BARED
An attempt to destroy the Omaha
Municipal auditorium by blowing it
up with gas at 9:30 on the opening
night of the auto show1 was disclosed
Saturday.
Chief of Police Van Deusen admit
ted he has had four men working on
the case all week, but kept the inves
tlgation secret so as not to harm the
automobile show attendance.
A three-quarter inch gas line was
opened by someone in the basement
of the Auditorium and hundreds of
feet of illuminating gas escaped be
fore the flow was stopped by turning
It off at the outside main.
‘‘The work of a maniac-,” i* the
statement of Charles Franke, mana
ger of the Auditorium,
Th- eescape of the gas not only en
dangered the lives of hundreds at the
show, hut if a match had been light
ed, according to Franke, Omaha might
have seen a repetition of the Kansas
City auto show fire.
"I was first notified,” said Franke,
‘‘by a salesman with a display in the
basement that sewer gas was escap
ing Into that part of the show. 1
took it for granted he knew what
he was tnlking about and told him 1
would have it stopped in the morning.
"The thought occurred to me that
one of the four firemen guarding the
building would have noticed it if it
had been illuminating gas. That also
reassured me and I dtd not investigate
immediately.
"Presently another salesmen came
to me and said he smelled illuminat
ing gas. I called one of the firemen
and-he also said he smelled gas, but
that It must he sewer gas. We went
to the basement and discovered the
pipe leak.”
There are about a dozen expensive
autortobllee on display In the base
ment with an equal number of sales
men In attendance. None of the tales
men recalled seeing anyone near the
gas line, but whoever removed the
missing cap, according to Franke,
had to employ a wrench to twist the
tap off the line.
The pipe line was Installed at the
time of the recent food show and Is
not used for any other purpose.
As a result of the attempt, strict
orders prohibiting smoking were put
in effect. The cars on display were
drained of gasoline and placards all
over the building warn visitors against
smoking.

Found in Street
Death of Municipal Ice Plant
Employe Due to Natural
Causes.
The body of Ernest Hauserrnan, *5,
6629 Military avenue, was found In
front of 2014 Poppleton avenue at an
early hour this morning by Lewi*
Cain, who lives at that address, and
several companions who had just
driven up In a motor car.
Death had apparently come from
natural causes.
HSuserman is an employe of the
municipal Ice plant at Twentieth and
Poppleton streets and was on his way
to work. At 11 last night he called
Chris KJargaard, engineer of the
plant, told him that he had over
slept, but would be down to work
within a short time. That was the
last KJargaard heard of him until he
was called by police to Identify the
body.
With Cain when he found Hauser
man were Elton Root, 3826 North
Twenty-third street: C. V. Dickinson,
4010 North Twenty-fourth street, and

dressed to her at 1603 Monitean
street, Sedalia, was found In his
pocket.
Funeral arrangements will be ar
ranged after her return to Omaha.

Speaker Here for
Star in the East
Order With 70,000 Members
Toward Coming of
Christ.
Speaking under the auspices of the
order of the Star in the East. Ralph
L. Andrews will deliver an address
Sunday evening at the Theosophical i
hall on “The Coming Christ."
“Many gross misconceptions aro
abroad in the world regarding the re
turn of the Christ,” says Mr. An
drews. “They' range all the way from
hazy', intangible theories of some sort
of a spiritual coming, to the other ex
treme of a spectacular physical dem
onstration with an accompanying
anlhikition of the globe.”
In his opinion, there are magi, or
“wise men” today, Just as there were
2.000 years ago, to whom matters of
this kind are an open book. These
modern magi, he states, hold that the
Star of the Christ Is again In the
“East,” and that lie will soon return
to the world to tench and regenerate
humanity.
The order of the Star in the East
Is a worldwide organization with
about 70,000 members, embracing ev
ery' race, caste and creed. Its work
does not consist in preparing a few
“chosen ones" to be transported to
realms of heavenly bliss when He
comes, leaving the re^t of humanity to
writhe eternally in In llfire, but its
main object Is to • cientifically train
and develop its members that they
may intelligently and efficiently co-op
eiate with Him In His mighty work.

LABOR BODY MAY
CHANGE ITS NAME
Changing the name of the central
labor body of Omaha from the "Cen
tral Labor Union" to the "Omaha
Federation of Labor” wan advocated
by a committee reported at the bi
monthly meeting of the organization
in the Labor Temple Friday night.
While no definite action was taken
on the proposed change, short 'argu
ments on the matter indicated that
there will he a rather spirited debate
before the change Is made, several
delegates expressing the belief that the
old name has come to mean a great
deal In the city, and several others
expressing the belief that "labor
onion” should he removed from the
title.
The body decided to cast Its vote In
favor of remodeling 'the Labor Tem
ple, plans for which already have
been drawn. The estimated cost Is
J14.U0O. The body also voted to pro
cure enough funds to enable the Ne
braska Federation of Labor to con
tinue to pay the expenses of a labor
representative In Lincoln till the
completion of the present legislative
session.

Russian Culture
Held Invincible
Continental Club Speaker
Sees Permanenre After
Bolshevism Dies.
Russia Is still a land of mystery
and Is blazing a new path of social
life, Is the opinion of I)r. E. Hoi
ovtchiner, who spoke to members of
the Continental club at luncheon
Friday In Hotel Fontenelle.
"It Is my belief that when the
reneer of bolshevism has worn oft,
thers will arise a new nation: the
birth of a great and free nation is in
progress,” the doctor said. "Russia,
with Its art and literature cannot be
crushed; It will come out victorious
into a new order of affairs.”
Revolutions Reviewed.
Tha doctor reviewed The various
revolutionary movements in Russia
stating that the days of October of
various years are marked with bloody
letters In the history of Ruslsan revo
lutions. He explained the present
form of government, the union soviet
republic of Russia, with its central
executive committee of 371 members,
elected on a plain similar to the for
tner method of electing I’nlted Plates
senators by state legisl.it uros This
central executive committee, or con
gross, delegates Its power to a group
of its own members when not In ses
sion.
"Communism Is the adopted doc
trine of the country.” the speaker
added. "It preaches an Ideal of this
world and It promotes the Idea that
all men are brothers.”
Consistent Republics.
The doctor explained how four con
stituent republics formed the soviet
republic, with a general constitution
and ea< h republic retaining certain
state rights He stated that the vari
ous occupations send representatives
to the local and national soviets, thus
keeping the proletariat In control.
Although Russia is a republic,
there fit no president of vice presi
dent. National affairs are ndniinls
tered by members of « cabinet work
lug with the central executive com
mittee. He referred to the old i cr ime
as "a tyrannical government wlthh
died In March, 1917. never to rise
again.

Wood Turns Rack
on Joys of Paris
Son of General, Who Made
Fortune in Wall Street,
Now Lives in Seclusion.
By FRANK K. MASON.

I i>rre,|Min(lent.
Paris, Fpb. 21.—Lieut. Osborne Cut
ler Wood has turned his back on the
gay night life of Paris after a career
as a spender and a host that has
attracted attention even of blase
Montmartre.
The son of MaJ. Gen. Leonard Wood
was located In a small French town
today by International News Service
after being missing from his quar
ters In the Crlllon hutel for five days.
That Wood has spent most if not
all of the money he made in two spec
tacular raids on AVall street was in
dicated by Wood’s friends.
Wood’s account with the American
Express company was said to havs a
lien entered against It preventing
Wood from withdrawing any addi
tional funds.
The reported Intention of Wood's
wife—now In the United States—to
divorce him was said to have brought
on a nervous breakdown. He was In
bed for a week and his friends said
he has been visibly depressed since.
Wood's decision to quit Parisian
gaiety was said to have been reached
Monday. He departed from Paris
after confiding to a few friends that
he was through with the "Mont
martre crowd." with whom he has
been traveling since liis wife went
to America.

EXTRA SHOW OF
“RAIN” SUNDAY
When Sam H. Harris decided to
send the special cast of "Rain" on
tour In answer trr the demand from
the cities away from Broadway, noth
ing was left undone to make both
the cast and production in perfect
keeping with the New York or
ganization. In selecting a young wo
man for the part of "Sadie Thomp
son," he was fortunate In finding
Ueorgie I.ee Hall, whose performance
of the role has been acclaimed by
many competent critics as being fully
equal to the New York cast, some
going so far as to say that In some
dramatic lines they prefer her to the j
original. The entire cast is com
posed of distinguished Rroadwav
artists and includes John Waller, S.
Miller Kent, Shep Camp, Margaret
Rloodgood, Douglas R Dumbrille. ■
Marlon Marcus Clark. Percy Jennings
and others. .
The Omaha engagement, which
closes with an extra and final per
formance Sunday evening, is prov
ing somewhat of a sensation.
