Germans Unable to
Find Coal for Coke
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
BERLIN, Oct 11 With ths approach
of fall and winter, the shortage In coke
that exists In Germany because of the
war la being Increasingly felt The stop
page of English coal Is responsible for
the shortage.
The supply of coke formerly was manu
factured from a mixture of English and
Upper BUesaln coal. Blnce the Importa
tion of the former ceased there has been
a vain search for a substitute from which
good coke oould be made.
Austrian, SUealan, Bohemian, Polish
and Westfallan coal all have been trld.
and the result In each ease Is the same.
The resultant coke is so brittle that It
breaks and virtually cannot be Meed with
any degree of success because the. pieces
fall through the grating.
Plica has ceased to be the controlling
factor In the coke problem. The city of
Berlin alone baa expended an excess of
soma 1,000.000 marks for coal supposed to
be a substitute for the English product,
as its mayor recently announced la re
buking a man who had charged that the
shortage was due to niggardliness on ths
part of municipality.
Each of the coals tried have been fine
gas producers, but the residue has been
unavailable for grata furnaces, and gas
establishments that formerly sold coke
ss well have had to leave their contracts
nly partially filled. Experiment are
now being made with a new kind of
Westfallan coaL
Hanscom Parkers '
Still Want Viaducts
The Hanscom Park Improvement club
last night voted against accepting a re
port of a special committee to postpone
indefinitely the consideration of the two
viaducts at Turner boulevard and Martha

owners appeared to protest against the
building of the viaducts.
Former Congressman David Mercer ad

Two youthful highwaymen held up and
robbed the crew of a Farnam street

The two bandits were both unmasked
and apparently unmindful of their dan
ger, since both street car men made sev

at Crete.
GOOD SUPPORT FOR THE MILITIA
(From a Btaff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Oct li.-8pectal. Supple
menting hie address at Crete, In which
he opposed a great military or naval
program. Governor Morehead gave out
this additional statement today:
"I believe we should give all proper
support to the state mllltla and In train
ing young men to perform military serv
ice, without, however, taking them out
of civil life and removing them from
useful occupation I do not believe it
would be a good thing for our country
to build up a military class by creating
a standing army of half a million man,
which some of the advocates of mili
tarism Insist we should have.
"Our navy, In my opinion, should be
powerful enough to Insure our coast de
fenses . and ' prevent Invasion. Beyond
that I do not believe we should go. The
Interests of the American people will be
best promoted by not mixing in foreign
affairs, but staying in our own coun
try, and differences arising In other coun
tries should be settled by arbitration.
We are fortunate that men who are
strong for military achievements have
not had control of the national govern
ment during the last year. PrekMent
Wilson has done the country an Ines
timable service and made himself very
popular by doing everything possible to
avoid trouble with other countries. The
thing that has made him stronger with
the people than everything else is that
he has kept us out of war.
"If we had been prepared to the extent
that some mllltartstlo newspapers and
politicians advocate, we might very
easily have become embroiled in the
European war. Buch preparations as
these men and Journals are clamoring
for would require at leat il.OCO.cn In a
very few years. No such expenditure ts
necessary for a peaceful nation, that has
no aggressive desires against other na
tions. : instead of spending such vast sums
upon expensive armaments, I believe the
government of the United States should
encourage and aid In the construction
of north and south railroads to ac
commodate tba commerce of the country.
help develop good roads everywhere, and
promote the development of water power
and irrigation on a more extensive scale
than in the past"

for the Paxton Gallagher coffees are
naturally aecret. Borne coffees are noted
for their strength, some for mildness,
some for fragrance, some for sweetness.
Mr. Foster blunds these In Just the rUht
proportion to give the delldoua and char
acteristic flavors to the varloue brands
he puts on the market.
Three great gas roasters In the Pax
ton ft Gallagher plant are at worlt every
day roasting coffee by the proci that
brings the coffee In direct conls t with
the flame and bats It about with r,;nat
paddles until It has reached exactly the
right shade of brown.

These three roasters consume ') worth
of gas per month. This company Is one
of the largest. If not the largest elnsrla
consumer of gas In Omaha. By using
coal roosters the cost would bo only
about fiO a month for fuel, but the extra
$f50 per month for gas consumption Is
cheerfully paid In order to get tho a 1
tvantage of this special flame-roasting

The three roasters roast about VA bags

Non-stop Record
And the Grant Six made a perfect
score showed itself to be a wonder.
Absorb the figures below. Note
the big actual mileage the average
speed and then note the small
gasoline consumption and the
amazingly small consumption of
water and oil.
It simply emphasizes the wonder
ful economy of running a Grant
Six under any conditions.
Recall that Grant Six is not a
small, imitation automobile but a
big, man's size car 112 inch wheel

even greater significance.
