GEN. HALL GIVES
OMAHABIG BOOST
Says Interest in ' Recruiting
Here Far Exceeds That
Shown By Lincoln
Business Men. ,
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, June 11. (Special Tele
gram.) Omaha got a big boost from
" Adjutant General Hall today and
Lincoln a corresponding knocK wnen
that officer made comparisons of the
backinc recruitinK is receiving from
Omaha business men while those of.
the capital city appear to be taking
little interest in the. matter.
"Fifty business men are out getting
recruits for" the new Sixth regiment in
the hope to secure four companies for
Omaha," said General Hall. "Stores
are .helping,, the hotels are donating
rooms for recruiting and Gould Dietz,
George Brandeis and other prominent
Omaha men hays pledged me that the
battalion will be raised."
In comparison to the Omaha activi
ties, the general pointed with sonic
heat to the apathy which surrounds
recruiting in Lincoln. Very few of
the recruits received here are from
Lincoln. Of the total of seventy
eight recruits received for the field
hospital and Company A, of the Fifth
regiment, only twenty-three arc from
v Lincoln. ( "

RIDGELL WOULD STOP
SALE OF FIREWORKS
State Fire Commissioner Ad
vises City Councils to Pass
Ordinances Abolishish
Needless Practice.
That the indiscriminate sale of fire
works be prohibited by law is the plea
made by W. S. Ridgell, chief deputy
fire commissioner of Nebraska, in a
bulletin issued on the precautions to
be taken to eliminate, or at least min
imizej the dangers attending the use
of fireworks in Fourth of July celebra
tions. V
Tue fire commissioner deplores the
use of fireworks and advises city
councils to prohibit by ordinance
what he calls "the extravagant un
necessary, needless practice."
That the indiscriminate sale of fire
works will be abolished by a state law
next year Mr. Kidgell prophecies.
Omaha Takes Steps.
Omaha already has taken steps to
curtail the use of fireworks in obscrv-
nig Independence day. No fireworks
at all will he used in the big celebra
tion at Kontenelle park and other
community gatherings winch make
much of their July 4 celebrations have
agreed to suspend their fireworks
displays.
in his bulletin the hte commissioner
warns as follows:
"Every Fourth of July disastrous
fires occur on account of carelessly
handled or stored fireworks. All fire
works are highly combustible. They
are dangerous to life as well as prop
erty. Children should not be allowed
to handle the highly explosive kind;
in fact, children should not be allowed
to handle fireworks at all. The fact
that they must use matches and fire
to set theoi off is sufficient reason to
keep fireworks an ay from them. The
amount of property destroyed by
children and matches each year is
enormous.
"All dealers selling fireworks must
keep same under a glass cover and
no broken packages should be lett

uncovered around a store. We would
request all mayors, fire chiefs and fe
cial deputies in all towns throughout
the state to see that this order is en
forced. All fireworks when taken
from original packages must be placed
under a glass cover such as showcases,
etc. When th original package is
broken it should be taken outside the
store at once and placed under a
showcase on a stand or table and the
fireworks sold from this stand outside
the store on the sidewalk or some
other convenient place. In case of lire
the flames could be more easily ex
tinguished and the lire confined to the
showcase. Don't sell any fireworks
from counters inside if stores.
Safe and Sane Way.
"The sensible and safe way of cele
brating the Fourthof July would be
by patriotic speeches, music and pa
rades and fireworks are not necessary
!pr even the most enthusiastic patri
otic celebrations. If citizens feel,
however, that fireworks must be a
part of a patriotic demonstration the
safe way to display them would be
for the city to buy a quantity and then
hire some experienced person to ar
range the- display in a public park
where citizrns can view them with
out endangering life or property as
they do when each citizen takes it
upon himself to buy his own fireworks
and lets each member of his family
.participate in setting them off.
To Prohibit Next Year.
"It is our intention to prohibit the
indiscriminate sale of fireworks next
year,' except for exhibition purposes,
and the cities and towns in tlw state
will govern themselves accordingly.
"We would advise the city councils
in the different cities to pass ordi
nances prohibiting the use of fire
works in their respective towns. This
is the -only effective way abolish
the extravagant unnecessary, needless
practice.
"In ten years 1,7.19 people were
killed. jS.Oo1) wounded, making a total
of 39.8(18 accidents due entirely to the
use of fireworks. Think of it, in ten
years a total of 39,808 people the
equivalent of nearly forty regiments
were killed or injured in Fourth of
July celebrations.
"It would surely seem these statis
tics alone would he sullicient to make
people stop and reflect bcfire they
spent money for this useless, sense
less, extravagant pastime."
