ica's fighting men bv passage of the
administration soldiers' and sailors'
civil rights bill was utged today be
fore a senate judiciary subcommittee,
which began formal hearings. Early
enactment of the measure is desired
by many officials, who contend that
next to the insurance bill "it is the
biggest and most needful thing to be
done for the country's defenders,"
An emergency call was received
yesterday from France by Leonard
Trester, chairman of the work of the
Navy league in the state of Nebraska,
which stated: "Our marines are shiv
ering with cold. Send as soon as pos
sible 5,000 of the heaviest possible
woolen socks, size 12 or thereabouts,
also 5,000 comfort bags."
Mr. Trester, whose headquarters are
in Lincoln, visited Omaha Saturday
and asked Mrs. Harvey Newbranch,
chairman of the work being done
here for the Navy league, that Omaha
furnish 1.000 socks and 700 comfort
bags as her quota before the first of
October.
A telegram was also received ask
ing that the United States furnish
knitted garments for the men in the
allied forces as well as our own.

The club has no name, nor officers.
Miss Hill has been urged by her

Mrs. O. C. Redick, chairman of the
Red Criss committee on hospital sup
olies. left Saturday evening with
iMr.'Redick for New York and Wash
ington, where she will attend a con
ference Tuesday of the state chair
men of the National Surgical Dress
ing work. .
Mrs. Redick, who has been chair
man of the work since September,
feels very proud of the work accom
plished in the state. There .are
twenty-six towns in the state where
Vomen are organized for surgical
dressing work and none of the work
which has been censored at New York
headquarters has ever been' returned
as unsatisfactory a record not held
by every state. Nor does it mean that
the work is below the standard of the
Red Cross, but the dressings re
quired by the surgical dressings com
mittee are somewhat simpler than
those required by the Red Cross, be
ing made after patterns used by
nurses and surgeons abroad.
In the formation of war relief
chapters in the state the women' have
been given their choice of work, and
some have chosen the surgical dress
ings because they do not feel able to
pay for the course in the Red Cross
surgical dressings, or like sending
some one to Omaha to take the
course. One work is as patriotic as
another, and it all goes to the work
for the wounded abroad, is the explan
ation made by Mrs. Redick. She hopes
to bring back helpful suggestions
from eastern Red Cross officials to
put to work in Nebraska.
Combining pleasure with war work
is the purpose of the Dundee Sunset
club, which will meet for the ,first
time Wednesday at the home of the
president, Mrs. Harry Binder. The
club, which has been known as the
Hill Climber's club, is composed of a
dozen women living in the same
neighborhood in Dundee. Previous
years they have played cards once a
week and given dancing parties the
alternate week.
This year they have decided to
spend the first hour of the afternoon
knitting for the soldiers and sailors
and then play bridge the rest of the
jtime.
In place of the elaborate luncheons
served in previous years, they will
have simple menus costing not over
$2. The menus will be submitted to
the secretary of the organization,
Mrs. Dale Williamson, who will act
as censor. The club Vill meet in the
afternoon one week and in the
evening the alternate -m eek, when the
...-! I- -II t. -
HUMiaiius win oc guests.
When queried as to the kind of a
luncheon that could be served to
twelve people for so small a sum, Mrs.
Binder told of her menu, which. will
be served at the first luncheon It
consists of meat loaf, baked potatoes,
hot buttered rolls, jelly, pickles, ice
cream, cakes and'tea.
This illustrates what women with
resources can do in combining con
servation with pleasure. The members
of the club are as follows:
Messrs. and Mesdames
Dr. Grant Wtlllmy. Orrle Hulae
Dale Williamson Clsrci.ce Jonea
C. a Howe Lurjr Baldwin
Dr. Joseph Lawrence J U Hildreth
Joseph Onrspecher R. E. l'ratt

The knitting machines at the
Woman Service League headquarters
are kept in constant use under the di
rection of Mrs. Luther Kountze, Mrs.
Herbert Wheeler, Mrs. Wilson Lowe
and Mrs. E. S. Weatherly.

Kinkaid Boasts About

(Prom a Staff Correspondent.)
, Washington, Sept. 23. (Special Tel

as Nebraska has been designated for
these many years, will not apply to
the Prairie state any longer. Judge
Kinkaid told the house yesterday that
he would show a potash mine as good
as any in his state and asked leave to
extend his remarks during the
passage of the senate bill authorizing
the Secretary of the Interior to grant
persons and corporations a prospect

to prospect for potassium and its de

New Factories Springing Up
To Help to Make Omaha Grow
Active operations will soon begirt
in 'the Albrecht lace cord factory at
Fortieth and Hamilton streets. Much
machinery has, .been installed and
much is still being installed. One new
machine invented by Mr.! Albrecht
will turn out the lace cord nearly
three times as fast as any other ma
chine made and it requires but very
little attention or . assistance. One
manor young woman can easily man
age three machines at the same time,
as the only work required is to put in
full bobbins when those in the ma
chine run out of yarn. Dr. Despecher,
who is at the head of the company,
hopes to nave thirty machines in run
ning order within a few months. He
says that he can sell all the lace cord
he can turn out at a good profit with
out the slightest difficulty.
G. M, Stone of Griswold, la., is the
inventor of a new farm tractor, which
he says has met with approval down
in Texas, where a great many tractors
are in use. He has organized a com
pany at Texarkana and will soon be
gin to manufacture the tractors at
that point Mr. Stone was in Omaha
last week for the purpose of getting
several small models of his tractor
built in Omaha, and with the assist
ance of the industrial secretary he
found that the American machine
works on Twelfth street could build
his model without delay and made ar
rangements to have the work done,
Mr. Stone will consider the matter of
building a factory in Omaha after his
models are completed.
The sand hill country and the Bad
Lands were looked upon a few years
ago as a vast expanse of waste, ut
terly good for nothing except for
grazing. But someone discovered the
potash deposits and fortunes are now
being made out of the potash indus
try of western Nebraska. ;
Now comes another discovery from
Ardmore, S. D., in the form of a clay
deposit a natural zeolite which is
said to be the most perfect water soft
ener ever discovered.
