laid out a lengthy program of drills

M'ADOO APPEALS
FOR BUYERS OF
' LIBERTY BONDS
(Continued from Tag On.)
everyone is asked to lend his money
to tpe government.
Loans Repaid in Full.
f'Tbe loans will be rapid in full
With interest at the rate of 4 per
cent pec annum. A government bond
Is the "safest investment in the world
it, is as good as currency and yet
better, because the government bonds
bear , interest and currency does not.
No other investment compares with
it for safety, ready convertibility in
to cash,, and unquestioned availability
as collateral security for loans- in any
bank hi the , United States. - People
by thousands ask the treasury con
stantly how they can help the govern
ment in this war. Through the pur
chase of Liberty bonds every one can
help. No more patriotic duty can be
performed, by those who cannot actu
ally fight upon the field 6f battle than
tb furnish' the 'government with the
necessary money to enable, it to give
our brave soldiers and sailors all that
they require to make them strong for
the fight and capable of winning a
swift victory over pur enemies.
"We fight, first of all, fof Amen
ca'a vital, rights, the right to un
molested and unobstructed use of the
high 'sea$, so. that the surplus pro
ducts of our farms, our mines and our
factories may be carried into the har
bors of every friendly nation in the
world. Our welfare and prosperity
as a people depend upon our right of
peaceful intercourse with all the, na
tions of the earth. To abandon.these ,
rights by withdrawing our ships and
cpmmeree from the seas upon the or
der of a military despot in Europe
would destrdy prosperity and bring
disaster and humiliation upon the
American people. We figh( to protect
our citixens against assassination and
murder. upon the high seas while in
the peaceful exercise of those rights
demanded by international law and
every instinct and dictate of human
ity. We, fight to preserve our demo
cratic institutions, and bur sovereign
ity as a nation against the menace of
a powerful and ruthless military auto
cracv headed by the German Raiser;
whose ambition is to dominate the
world. We fight also for the noble
ideal of universal democracy and lib
erty, the right of the smallest and
weakest nations equally with the
most powerful to live and to govern
themselves according to the will -of
their own. people.
"We fight for peace, for that just
and lasting .peace which agonized and
tortured humanity craves and which
not the sword nor the bayonet of a
military despot, but the supremacy of
to
vindicated right alone can restore
a distracted world.
"To secure these ends, I appeal to
every man and woman who resides
upon the soil of free America and
enjoys the blessings of its priceless
institutions, to join the league of
patriots by purchasing a LIBERTY
BOND."
Pollard, Negro Grid Star,
Faces Ban for Studies
Brown university, which is going in
for a full foot ball schedule this fall,
is now looking around for' a man's
sized halfback to take the place of its
negro Ail-American star in thaf posi
tion, Frita Pollard. . That star is in
scholastic difficulties which may not
be surmounted by his summer's cram
ming, so he can compete this fall.
Consequently Brown's campus will be
shadowed by large clouds- of gloom
when the undergraduates gather in a
couple of weeks. Possibly. the boys
may not argue with the faculty to is
pel these. clouds, but the chancel are
they will get their debating team at
work to bring a line of persuasive
arguments in Pollard's favor. .

TO REPAIR DODGE
ROAD NEXT WEEK
Bauer & Johnson Awarded Con
tract and Board Approves
Bond; Contractors Ordered
to Start Immediately.
After months of delay, marked by
litigation between the county board
and rial paving contractors, work
probably will begin the first of next
week on the repairing of five miles of
West Dodge street road, starting at
Fairacres.
The county board and the county
attorney have now approved the $10,
000 bond of Bauer & Johnson, who
finally got the contract after a bitter
fight in law court. The bond is just
double the amount of the one put up
by the Callahan Construction com
pany, whose contract for one mile of
paving was knocked out by Judge
Redick.
The kind of paving to be put in on
West DodBe ctreet also is just the
opposite of what the good roads com
mittees of the Commercial club and
club
reconw
tiie Omaha Automobile
mended.
The Callahan Construction com
pany originally was awarded the con
tract for one mile, of "test" road, not
withstanding the fact that Bauer &
Johnson's bid, according to specifica
tions, was lower. Bauer & Johnson
bid 44 cents a square yard for the five
miles, to be put in by the pressure
method.
Brings Out Injunction.
The Callahan people bid 77 cents,
the work to be done by the "Finley
method," claimed to be a patented
process by reason of a special ma
chine they used. Bauer & Johnson
brought injunction proceedings
against the board and the Caltahan
company and the case was fought out
before Judge Redick, sitting in law
court.
After a bitter legal fight Judge Red
ick ruled against the Callahan con
tract and the matter was referred back
to the commissioners. Testimony in
court brought out the fact that three
members of he board were "treated"
to a trip to Dallas, Tex., and other
southern points at the expense of the
Callahan people. The trip ostensibly
was made to give work put in by the
Callahan people in Texas the "once
over."
When the paving matter was re
ferred back to them, the commission
ers m turn asked good roads commit
tees of the Commercial club and the
Automobile club to recommend what
they wanted done. Chairman O'Con
nor of the board declared at the time
the recommendations of the delega
tions would be carried out. The
recommendation was that, Bauer &
Johnson be given the contract
on the basis of 74 cents a square yard,
the paving to be put in by the "im
pregnation method," a more perma
nent highway, according to road ex
perts, than the "process method?1 -.,
The board balked at this, however, (
and substituted the'44-cent contract!
and then there was another delaying
approving Bauer & Johnson's bond.

have been disposed of and the con-:
