unanimously voted to convert its
entire buiUlinpr fund into Liberty
bonds as an act of patriotism to aid in
the success of the second Liberty loan.
The fund for a new building is now
$2,500.
The resolution to buy the Liberty
bonds followed a stirring address by
M. L. Corey, attorney tor the Umaha
Land bank, in which he outlined the
reasons for the entrance of the
United States into the war, explained
the workings of the loan, and spoke
of the value it would be to the cause
if the union was one of the first to sub
scribe at the very start of the cam
paign. Mr. Corey said: "We who have not
donned the uniform of the soldier and
given up all that is dear to us: our
loved ones; our positions; possibly
our very lives, are weighted with a
heavy rerponsibility. We must assist
in financing America's part in this
great conflict to the end that Amer
ican lives shall not be sacrificed, and
to prevent this needless sacrifice of
lives we must have a greater supply
of the materials of war than have our
enemies.''
Protests Overseas
Service for Draft
Washington. Oct. 6. An appeal to
congress to prevent the sending of
a draft army to Europe on the ground
that it violates the constitution, re

minister to Spain, was referred to the
military committee.
If no constitutional exemption
should be found to exist, then con
gress, Mr. Taylor contends, should
pass a joint resolution expressly
authorizing the sending of men to
Europe "so that the electorate at the
next election may be able to express
their approval or disapproval."
