KORE MEN RETURN
TO THEIR LABORS
Carpenters and Bricklayers
Are Back at Work and
More Teams Are Haul
ing Material.
Carpenters and bricklayers to some
extent began working yesterday
on a tew ot the building jobs in
Omaha, but the building activities
have not yet opened generally. The
Keed injunctions which require the
employers and employed to pursue
the normal course of business as it
was before the building trades strike
have not thus far effected a settle
ment of the strike.
Because the injunctions prevent in
terference with nonunion workers by
the union strikers, nonunion men have
been enabled to go to work in many
places and it is this largely that is
making possible the resumpf n ot ac
tivities. Teamsters who have gone
to work in the material yards are
largely nonunion teamsters. Striking
electrical workers are still holding out
for their increase. Mieet metal work
en are not going back to work at
the old scale, and the mill workers
arc holding out for their 35 cents
per hour wherever there is any ne
gotiation with the employers.
Speculate On Outcome.
Much speculation is on as to
whether the injunction procedures
are going to be successful in stopping
the strike troubles in Omaha, since
the injunction is only one of the many
methods that have been tried within
the last few weeks.
When the State Council of Defense
was created some weeks ago, a com
mittee on labor was appointed with
T. P. Reynolds of Omaha at the head
of it. Soon this committee decided
to take up the strike situation in
Omaha and investigate it in an effort
to effect a settlement.
Then came a federal man, Mr. Ol
son, of the conciliation department
of the federal Department of Labor.
He investigated the situation for a
' week or ten days and then little more
was heard of him.
Suddenly it was recalled that the
state has a board of mediation and in
vestigation, specially created to handle
such difficult cases as this. The board
was called into action by Governor
Neville.
Both Sides Enjoined.
No sooner had the investigation by
the board begun, than Attorney Gen
eral Reed, ignoring the board's activ
ities, attempted to sdttle the strike by
enjoining both sides from doing any
thing but pursuing normal lines of
business.
When the board undertook to go
ahead with its investigation the at
torney general enjoined the board
from further proceedings.
Now comes the threat of some of
the labor .leaders to appeal directly
to the federal Department of Labor
to send representatives here to in
vestigate the legality of the injunc
tion, and make other full investigation
of the strike situation.
Kennedy and Gompers in
Tilt Over Draft Exemption
Samual Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, and
Frank Kennedy, editor of the Western
Laborer of Omaha, have been carry
ing on through correspondence and
in the columns of the Western La
borer a little tilt regarding Gompers'
proposal that labor union officials
should be exempted from the first
military draft.
Gompers has been quoted as hay
ing formally asked that married men.
widowers with children under 14, and
labor union officials, be exempted
from the first draft.
Kennedy, in his paper, replied by
objecting to labor asking for special
privileges and then protesting against
other classes getting special privileges.
Gompers has written Kennedy a
long letter in explanation saying it is
not to avoid the performance of mil
itary service that he asks this exemp
tion, but merely that men who are
retained by their organizations to
perform a bona fide service to labor
organizations might be kept at home
to continue this service which he holds
to be essential to the welfare of labor
and the country at large.
Kennedy replied "If labor can get
away with the exemption claims for
certain men, then the banks, railroads,
and all commecial institutions have
a perfect right to ask for the same
privilege."
. Too Many Moriarltys Here;
Wants Name Changed to Morey
That there are too many Moriaritys
living in Omaha is the contention of
Dr. Pierre Colon Moriarity and wife,
who have filed a petition in dis
trict court to change their name to
just plain Morey.
In his petition Dr. Moriarity states
that he and his wife have been an
noyed for years by receiving other
Moriarity mail and answering wrong
Moriarity calls. They reside at the
Hamilton apartments.
Dr. Moriarity has been a practicing
physician in Omaha for more than
twenty years.
Tours Nebraska Lines
On First Inspection
General Superintendent Webb of
the Nebraska and Kansas lines of the
Missouri Pacific is out on his first
tour of inspection since coming to
the company, June 15, as successor
to A. D'Benardi, who resigned to go
to the Orient, as general manager.
Superintendent Webb reached town
late last night and left early this
morning for a tour over the Nebraska
lines. His headquarters will be con
tinued in Kansas City.
Corn Receipts for Omaha
In June Break All Records
Corn receipts in Omaha for the first
twenty-two days of June were 2,755
cars.
This is regarded as unusual for this
season of the year, as farmers ordi
narily are busy in the fields and do
not ship grain. The above receipts
are almost double the quantity re
ceived at other markets during the
same period and are double the quan
tity received in this market during the
same period a year ago.
Austrian Premier Fails
To Form New Cabinet

trian cabinet which recently resigned,

struct the ministry, according to a dis
patch from Vienna. The count lias
asked Emperor Charles to invite

Tallest Private Was Formerly
Captain in the Nebraska Guard
"The giant of the Fourth Nebraska
National Guard."
That's what soldiers at Fort Crook
call Leon H. Davis, six feet tour
inches tall, former National Guard
captain, editor, school teacher and
adventurer, who recently enlisted as
a private in company D.
It wasn't because the good-nalurcrl
giant could not have had a higher
rank when he enlisted if he desired.
It was rather because he wanted to
be with the "dough boys" in the
trenches where he couta ste first line
fighting.
Private Davis did not have to en
list. He is 34 years old, but when he
heard the battle call he dropped his
newspaper work in a town in western
Colorado and hurried to Omaha. He
couldn't get into Albion company.
of which he was commanding officer
in so he told the recruiting of
ficer to "stick me any place where 1
will do the most good."
Private Davis was editor of the
Ibion Argus in 191.1. He sold the
paper inc larer pari oi me year and
went to Colorado to engage in simi
lar work. Previous to coming to Al
bion he was a school teacher.
The tallest Nebraska guardsman
enlisted in the Colorado Guard alter
making that state his home and
served in the Colorado strike.
He has done considerable traveling,
visiting a number of foreign countries.
Private Davis has won several
medals as a crack shot. He has quali
fied as an expert rifleman.
