EUROPE REDUCING
U.S. MEAT SUPPLY
Food Administration Says Meat
Producing Animals De
creasing at an Alarm
ing Sate.
Washington, Aug. 20. The problem
of supplying the allies with meat has
devolved mainly on the United States
and daily the burden is growing more
onerous, according to a statement is
sued by .the food administration today.
War time demands have been so great
that Europe has been making alarm
ing: inroads on its herds, with a conse
qnent reduction in its domestic sup
ply. Since the war started there has
been a total decrease of 115,005.000 in
he world's supply of meat producing
animals,. Cattle increased 7,090,000 in
the United States, while the total
world decrease was 28,080.000. Sheep
decreased 3,000,000 in this country,
while the world supply was dimin
ished 'by 54,500,00. Hogs increased
6.275.000 in America, but the general
supplv decreased 32,425,000.
lj.ig the year ending June ,10,
1915, America exported 1.339,193.000
pdunds of meat as compared with a
three-year ante bcllum average of
,'493.848.000 pounds. These exports
jwent chiefly to the allies, whose cap
ital stock of animals has decreased
33,000,000 head..

Amsterdam, Aug. 20. After his
viait to the German high sea fleet
at Wilhelmshaven, Emperor William
issued the following to the fleet:
"After having recently received an
announcement that a renewed heavy
attack of the enemy in an attempt to
break up our sea front in Flandfrs
had been successfully repelled, I have
today by a visit to my fleet and the
island fortress of Helgoland been en
abled to convince myself of the
strength and security of this front too.
I express my warm appreciation to
all the high sea forces on the water,
under water and in the air and to
the fortress of Helgoland for their un,
tiring, self-sacrificing and successful
labor, by means of which they have
kept firmly in view and attained this
aim. May the fleet remain conscious
that the confidence of myself and the
fatherland reposes firmly on it."
The emperor's visits is reported to
have been caused by the threat of
strikes at the Wilhelmshaven arsenal.

I "Thousands of dollars rntiM he
saved every year if the city paving
department would revamp the as
phalt surfaces," stated Randall K.
Brown, president of the Confmercial
club, addressing the city council in
vestigation of . paving conditions in
Omaha.
Mr. Brown referred to Sixteenth
street, from Douglas to Cuming
streets, as an instance of the possibili
ties of the new revamping process
which is being tried out by the street
repair department.
He recommended that the city
maintain a fund for revamping pav
ing. . . .... .
"Where large trucks wear out the
surfaces, it. is; not; fair to call upon
the abutting property owners every
ten or twelve years to relay these
pavements. I wish to call attention
of the commissioners to the careless
system which has been , in vogue in
connection with replacing cuts made
fn the pavements," added Mr. Brown.
"In some instances these cuts are
filled in and the pavement is not re
stored for several months, the result
being that water seeps in and weakens
a large area of the pavement beyond

Need Home Rule Charter.
"We are in need of a home rule
charter, so that we may make our

the heavy truck problem which is

maintain that these cuts should be
restored promptly and properly un

ttt Briscoe is powerful, but alone will not make a car 'suited

Ji economy alone will not make a car desirable in every way
for the people's use. But when these two. elementary quali
ties power and economy: are combined with reliability, en
durance and ease of operation, they make a car valuable in
every clime and for all people. The car of a half million dol

to a gallon of gasoline than any car sold today under $1,000.

ALLEGED FORGER IS
TRAPPED BY POLICE
Checks Signed , by Dead Man
Lead to Arrest of a Boy
Forger Preparing to ,
Leave for St. Joseph.
Izry Fursht, 21 years old, was ar
rested SaturBay charged with forgery
of worthless checks aggregating over
$100.
Fursht has cashed as high as fifteen
checks, it is believed, seven of which
have already been turned in to the po
lice. The worthless papers were
cashed at 'Drexel's Shoe company,
Hayden Brothers, Nebraska Clothing
company, Brandeis, Burgess'ash and
Benson & Thorne.
Officer O. A. Tagal, house detective
of the Burgess-Nash company made
the arrest. v The case was continued
until Tuesday, when it will be tried in
police court.
The checks were made out on the
Ornaha Plating company and the
forged signature of Louis $lavin, for
merly president of the company was
stamped on each. Louis Slavin died
last Thursday. I
Makes Good Attempt.
The checks were declared by the po
lice to be of an exceptionally good
forgery attempt. Fursht, who always
made small purchases when cashing
the checks, sold some of the mer
chandise to strangers. Much of the
boughten goods and some -money was
recovered.
Fursht was in the act of leaving the
city for St. Joseph when halted by Of
ficer. Tagal, at Fifteenth and Dodge
streets. He attempted to effect an
escape, but was unsuccessful.
The checjs were made payable to
Sam Weinstein. which will form the
basis of prosecution, inasmuch as un
der the law it is impossible to prose
cute for the forgery of a dead man's
name. Warrants were sworn out by
D. J. Eltredge, superintenden for Ben
