For the celebration of Ne
braska as a food producing
state, Governor Neville has set
apart the week of March 25 as
"Pure Food Week" in Ne
braska, in the following proc
lamation, issued Tuesday:
"To the People of the State
of Nebraska: By an act of
the legislature, passed several
years ago, the governor is con
stituted the food, drug, dairy
and oil commissioner, and it is
made his duty to see that all of
the provisions of the law are
properly enforced. To aid him
in this duty, he is authorized to
appoint a deputy commissioner,
and he, in turn, with the con
sent of the governor, appoints
a number' of inspectors. In
order that all of these office
perform their duty constar?
vierilance is reauired on the
part of those directly in charge.
"Therefore, as governor of
the state, I am exceeding an
xious that the best possible re
sults be secured. Food may be
said to include everything we
consume that goes to build up
and preserve our natural life,
as bread, meat, butter and
everything into which the pro
ducts of the dairy and poultry
industry enter and constitute
the major part, together with
vegetables, of which we con
sume enormous quantities, and

that these shall be pure, or as
pearly so as possible, is the
prime intent and justification
for the existence of the law and
for its rigid enforcement.
I "This law has worked well
in the past and has received
the stamp of public approval,
but that it may be made still
more efficient and bring more
and better results, I deem it
proper to follow in the steps of
former governors and set aside
i week in which all organiza
tions of commercial endeavor,
ill societies of public welfare
rmd business concerns engaged
n selling, distributing or man
ufacturing goods, and those en
gaged " in the production of
:ood, are hereby requested to
oin in the movement and aid
n making the work of those
o carry out the will of the
feople a success.
"Nebraska is in the forefront
f food producing states and
per citizens should vie with
each other in order that her
products shall receive first con
sideration in the markets of
pur country and of the world.
"I, therefore, set apart the
week beginning March 25 as
Pure Food week.

OLD MAIL CLERKS
GIVEN NO CHANCE
Orders for Sake of Economy
Work Hardships On Oldest
Men in the Service.
MAIL IS STILL CONGESTING
Still more protests are coming in as
to the way the Burleson regime is
"economizing" at the expense of the
old, tried servants of Uncle Sam in
the railway mail service. Here is a
mail clerk who shows how the ad
ministration tries to keep the efficient
men from getting their just deserts
in the way of pay by moving them
around the country. The following
letter came to The Bee office yester
day and is self-explanatory:
"To the Editor of The Bee: The
public has been hearing of late the
just grievances of the old guard of
the railway mail service through the
columns of our friends, The Bee and
Council Bluffs Nonpareil. Now per
mit me to state a few facts in regard
to the younger men in the railway
mail service and what they have gone
through since those graveyards for
mail, the terminals, were established.
Cut High Priced Men.
"The terminals were inaugurated by
Postmaster General Hitchcock on a
Class C basis, which is the class of
the best road lines.. On that basis
the men could make as much as
$1,500 per year under automatic an
nual promotions, the same as if on
road duty. To man the terminals
appointments were made from the
substitute list and also many volun
tarily relinquished road service for
the terminals by invitation of the de
partment. Then clerks began to be
withdrawn arbitrarily from the road
lines to the terminals. This worked
no hardship in the way of salary until
the present incumbent of the post
master general's office began to revo
lutionize things to put his crazy hob
bies into ettect.
"Postmaster General Burleson, b;
executive order on April 15, 191!
placed all terminals on a Class A
basis. By so doing he made it im
possible for thousands of men to go
over $1,200 in salary. Many of these
men had spent years on the road and
all had gone through the same course
of studv as the road clerks,
"Now to show how official minds
work. The order of reduction of ter
minals classification found a few men
making more than $1,200. Orders
were issued that sounded very fair.
These men were to be given their
salries temporarily until a suitable
road vacancy occurred. They were to
be offered this and in case of refusal
were to be reduced to $1,200.
Must Give Up Homes.
"This is the way it worked out, just
to use a concrete instance in which
the writer had no direct personal in
terest. A vacancy occurred on the
Missouri Pacific between Omaha and
Kansas City. This run headed out of
Kansas City with the layover there.
The sensible thing to do w u'.J have
been to offer the run to a Kansas City
man. It is the present plan to put
every high-class man into a hole and
olier him something impossible to
accept. In this case eight men work-
ing in the three terminals centering
at Omaha, were ottered this poor
$1,300 run. Each would have been
compelled to move to Kansas City
and sacrifice on a home here. So each
in his turn refused this offer and were
reduced to $1,200.
I his action is typical of the ahen-
angina ot our department omciais.
Anything to get a man's salary re
duced and then lay his a:tion was
voluntary.
Screen Career Was
Wished on This Girl
Doris Pawn's ohotoolay career was
wished on her. Who did it, the leading
ladv of William Fox a High finance
has never been sole accurately 10 at
termine. A few vears ago Miss Pawn, who
was born and reared in Norfolk, Neb.,
was visiting in southern California.
Like all tourists to that country sne
had to pay a visit to the motion pic
ture studios. In company with her
mother, she went to one ot the him
factories and stood watching the film
ing. she noticed the director at work
and his assistant watching her closely.
Then they got together in a corner
and talked together in whispers, cast
ing side dances at her. A few min
utes later, the director was before her.
1 beg your pardon, he said, nut
may l ask if youve ever acted r
Ihats an ambition I ve never ful
filled." answered Miss Pawn, who had
always cherished the dream of being a
star.
"Well, now l your chance, the di
rector answered. "We need a girl of
exactly your type for a small part.
We d be glad to have you play it. it
you would." i
so Lions rawn went to worn tnat
afternoon under the director, who did
not even know her name.
But her excellent work was not long
in the background. The head of the
company recognized it, and within a
few weeks the little lady was playing
leads in big productions.
She appears opposite Ueorge Walsh

WILL AFFECT ALL CREEDS
New York, March 24. (Special)
Men who are well informed about af
fairs of religion throughout the
world, interviewed since Russia
changed its form of government, a
British army took Bagdad and ar
rived at the gates of Jerusalem, and
the United States and China lined up
n war with the entente allies, unite
in saying that political governments,
even kings and emperors, will hardly
he more affected by the great war
than will the great religions of the
world. These are six in number, if
the Eastern Orthodox be counted one,
and the non-Christian world be
grouped, the Mohammedan leading.
With the fall of Mecca, the certain
change of political control of Jeru
salem and the possible driving of the
Turk out of Constantinople, tremen
dous changes are ahead in the non
Christian world, greater than ever be
fore were dreamed of, thinks Dr. .
John R. Mott. In India and China
the changes are hardly less signifi
cant, while there is a race on between
Christians and Mohammedans for
possession of the African Soudan.
Jewish State in Palestine?
There are 13.500,000 Jews, and they
are looking forward to American
'cadership and support to better con
ditions of 9.000.000 of them in Cen-
tral Europe, and possibly to create a
Jewish state in Palestine. In any
event, it seems certain that American
money and leadership will change
conditions in the Holy Land, making
it habitable to those who must live
there and for those who would go
there, the greatest show place on
earth. British capitalists have long
wanted to modernize it, and with the
going of the Turk's control and the
end of the war, the world will see, it
is believed, such travel to Mecca as
will make Niagara Falls, London and
Paris combined seem insignificant.
Unity in Eastern Church.
Reports filtering through from Rus
sia and the near east are to the effect
that there is such approach to unity
between the Russian and Greek
churches ss was never seen since the
separation. It is to be noted that
while both are Eastern Orthodox,
there is distinct difference between
them. The Metropolitan of Petro
grad Is head of the Holy Synod of -.
the Russian church, and the Patriarch
of Constantinople of the Greek. Rou
manians sre Roman Catholics in
larger numbers than other Balkans,
but Bulgaria and Serbia have distinct
churches, closely allied with the
Greek and its Patriarch.,
The possibility that Turkey in
Europe may come to an end and Con.
stantinople again become a Christian
city, has fired the heart of the East
em Orthodox communion. That it
may be Russian has given the Kit
sian church an ascendancy, but it has
welcomed the approches of the
Greek, possibly because of the neces
sities of war, and hence the predic
tions of those who know that there
Is immediately ahead an Eastern Or
thodox church, united as never be
fore, its official seat in historie St.
Sophia's on the Bosphorus.
Pope It Statesmsn.
Pone Benedict XV is looked upon.
both by Catholics and Protestants, as
one of the ablest pontiffs of modern
times. He is regarded as statesman as
well as pope. His course toward the
Italian government, toward Angli
can orders, and toward world peace,
has made, it is universally said, such
measure of church unity m the west
ern world as has not obtained in cen
turies. The effect of It Is felt
In France in the revival of church
activity, in Italy in co-operation be
tween church and government, in
England in the sending of an ambas
sador to the Holy See, and in Amer
ica in such degree of respect between
Catholics and Protestants, and co
operation In places, as has never been
known before.
Revolution In England.
In England a veritable revolution
In ideas and in treatment has taken
place since 1914 in the established
church's consideration for the free
churches, and the attitude of non
conformists toward Establishment
The present archbishop of Canter
bury has recognized free churchmen,
called them into conference, ss no
Canterbury primate' has done in
modern times, and there has been lit
tle criticism of his course. Social lines
sre said to be breaking down. West
minister Chanel and Westminister
Abbey and Westminster Methodist
Church House, all in the very center of
the English speaking world, there is
such social equality and fraternity,
so reports from London agree, as
London never knew before.
United States and Cansds.
In past years there has been srme
friction between churches in Canada
and those of the United States, but
it is already said that this will pass
as one result of co-operation between
America and England in the war. Pro- :'
testants of the United states, who
have developed the largest missionary
societies in the world, are reforming
methods, and bringing to an end coin
petition on foreign fields, and dupli
cation of churches in small villages at
home. Led by the episcopal church
and the Church of England In the
matter of a world conference on
Faith and Order, Protestant bodies
are joining here, and together there
is far better feeling than formerly
toward the great Catholic bodies,
eastern and Soman. The last named
is absorbing methods of Protestants,
especially those of the Christian and
missionary associations and in the
larger use of unordained men.
Means Revival of Religion,
Rev. Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, Rev.
Dr. William T. Manning, Rev. Dr.
Charles S. MacFarland, Rev. Dr. John
Timothy Stone and other leaders
agree that no great cause will be
more profoundly affected by the war,
and especially by the increase in de
mocracy,, than religion, and that
all indications point to improvement.
They say that all thought of the fail
ure of organized Christianity be.-ause
it djd not prevent war has vanished,
and the true relation of the war to re
ligion is now seen. Increases in fi- ,
nancial support are looked for, and
larger plans are making for work to
be entered upon Immediately war
ends than religion ever made before, '
