Wilson Will Make :
Second Effort to
Get Food to Poland
Washington, July 12. President
Wilson today told a large delegation
of representatives of Polish organiza-
. tions that he would make personal ef
forts to get relief to the starving in
Poland. It is understood he ii con
sidering i personal appeal to ht rul
ers of the nations invplved to allow
distribution of food. The state de
partment already has made one such
appeal to the governments. ?,
Senator Hitchcock introduced the
: delegation led by John F. Smulski of
Chicago, a member of the Polish Cen
tral relief committee. Mr. Smulski
. told the president that apparently "a
deliberate sentence of death has been
passed against the people of Poland."
Replying to the delegation, the
president said:
"This is a matter which has engaged
my thoughts constantly, I might say,
without exaggeration, and . I do not
think there is any matter to which
the State department has devoted a
more constant and repeated effort
than that of trying to c-"t relief into
Poland. I know the ' 'Me condi-
. tions, the tragical conri. that exist
. there and nobody cox... .now them
without feeling his heart torn with the
. knowledge.
"Just the other day we issued a
special appeal to 4ha governments
concerned to make concessions and
-ii. -i.:. i : . s .iAna
a i,uw wis r4uiuwq iiuib ne vw.v.
Now I am simply np against ) stone
.well itt tm ttetr
. . If they do not yield, obviously
there it nothing I can' do. I cannot
force food in there without compli
cating the iituation and without, I
conjecture, doing greater disserice
to Poland (than service. Its only
friends are apparently at a disadvan
tage. ?
"I can assure you that every kind
of pressure that can be brought will
be brought and it being brought in
the accomplishment of this object,
I desire, as well as all those asso
ciated with me desire, to help her. I
I was 'not forgetful of Poland and
was not likely to be forgetful tf her."
The committee told th- president
that what is now needed is permis
sion from Great Britsin to allow
ships carrying food to pass the Brit
ish blockade and assurances from
Germany that the food sent from the
United States will not be used to
military purposes. ' fl.:

The Universities
Detroit, Mich., July 12. Chairs of
salesmanship in the leading universi
ties and colleges of the country were
advocated by the World's Salesman
ship congress here today by Edward

Edwin A. Walton, advertising man
ager of a large Detroit manufactur
ing company, speaking on "The Cor
rect Attitude Toward Advertising,"
said: ;
"Advertising is a poor closer, but
a mighty good opener. Let us use it
to open men's minds in preparation
for our calls. Advertising can influ
ence a million minds at once, at the
cost of from a few cents down to
the decimal of 1 cent each. The mis
sion of advertising is to take the bur
den ot educational - work otf the
shoulders of the salesman and enable
him to start in nearer to the order."

CITY HAS CHANCE
TO BPY0LD BRIDGE
Activities Committee of Com
mercial Club Suggests Free
Highway to Bluffs.
BIO BOON TO TWO CITIES
There is a chance to buy the old
Union Pacific bridge at Omaha and
make a free bridge of it over the Mis
suri river, connecting Iowa and Ne
braska. -
The new activtiles committee of
the Commercial club has for some
time been gathering information on
this matter. The old bridge is to be
dismantled as soon as the Union Pa
cific completes the new bridge how
under construction.
The superstructure of the old
bridge is to be removed and the new
activities committee has found that it
may be purchased from the railway
company. What price will be asked
the committee has not ascertained, or
at least has not yet been made public.
At a special meeting of the execu
tive committee of the Commercial
club at noon the new activities com
mittee reported its findings' as far as
it has gone. . The executive commit
tee received the report very favorably
and continued the committee on this
work. . "
The plan contemplates the purchase
of the bridge either by Douglas coun
ty, or perhaps jointly by Douglas
county, Nebraska, and Pottawattamie
county, Iowa.
It is pointed out that wagon and
auto bridge entirely free of toll con
necting these two counties would be
a great benefit to both counties, and
to the cities of Council B4uffs and
Greater Omaha. -
Mandamus Brought .
By Central Bank to
Get Bank Charter
(From a Staff Correspondent)
Lincoln, July 12. (Special.)
Judge Cornish of the Lancaster
county district court today granted
the application of Albert S. White, W.
C. Lambert and Arthur Hoover, offi
cials of the proposed Central State
bank of Omaha, for a mandamus to
compel the State Banking board to re
consider its action in refusing a char
ter to the bank, and hold a meeting
and grant the same.
Hearing on,the matter will be had
before Judge Cornish at 10 o'clock
July 19.
The State Banking board has re
fused to grant charted on the appli
cation of the above officials, carrying
out a rule recently adopted that no
more state banks would be chartered
in communities which already had
banks sufficient to do the business of
the community.
A proposed bank at Sidney has al
ready secured an injunction against
the board granted on the grounds that
the rule adopted created a monopoly
and was therefore against the consti
tution of the state. ' .
