OPENING GUN IN
BIG BOND DRIVE
Kansas City Speaker Tells of
. ; Ambitions of German Mili
tary Party; Boosts Lib
erty Loan Campaign.
'r The toast "To th j Day," which Ger-
V man junkerdom has been drinking
I many years, means to the military
X party the day when all Europe will
! be controlled and governed by one
ji government the German, declared
Dr. E. E. Violette of Kansas City, in
bis talk before the Omaha Chamber
of Commerce at noon. He spoke on
"What We Fight For."
! Dr. Violette is pastor of Indepen
dence Boulevard Christian church at
I Kansas City,' the largest Christian
i church in the world. He is head of
the speakers bureau of the Tenth
Federal Reserve bank district for the
Liberty loan campaign soon to come.
Dr. Violette passed 19 years in Eu
rope, much of the time in Germany.
He was in Germany when the world
war started in 1914.
Pan-German Empire.
"For some time I lived at a hotel
in Germany at which an army officer
lived. I got well acquainted with
him." said Dr. Violette. One day I
(asked him what the famous toast, 'To
the Day' meant. He said it meant a
European war in which Germany
! would be victorious. He wid it
meant a pan-German empire from
, Hamburg to the Persian gulf. He said
it meant one great government in Eu
ropethe German government.
''And he said that when-this is
I realized there will be only two con
Isiderabie governments in ttie world,
the German and the American; and
the officer added. 'I doubt seriously
I whether the German government and
lits ideals and the American govern-
l . . g j - i 1 : : iL.
fmeni ana ks lacais cn live w mc
t same world together.'
J "And my answer to that officer
(was, 'So much the worse for. the Ger-
man ideal, and the German nation.'"
I ; Recites Own Poem.
i Dr. Violette recited a poem of
which he is the author, setting forth
4 "What We Fight For." In part the
;poem ran:
I "We fight against worm-lnfeeted throne ,
Whan a mildewed might and boastful
e lint refuse to own
I The aaered treaty rights of ' nations!
With Motherland
f W right Hall glorious England! Thou
J . didst understand
r that all the world would pral thy -

Of Juttloa for a thouaaod fears to

Lieuteninf K. F. Nance, for six
i,month an ambulance driver in France,
' now attached to the speakers' bu-
reau of the Federal Reserve bank of
Kansas City, accompanied Dr. Vio
lette. :, v ? v . -,t - v
Lieutenant Nance spoke at Omaha
university at 11 o'clock and at Central
(High school at 3 o'clock in the after.
T noon. At the Chahmber of Com
merce at noon Lieutenant Nance also
' spoke on tome of hit experiences in
France jaa an .ambulance driver. s
i ' i Hundreds of Speakers.
Dr. Violette said there are listed at
the Kansas City office about 750
speakers who will give their time to
' boost the next issue of Liberty bonds.
? "I predict that the issue will go
.ever big," he said, "for the people are
thoroughly , awake. The sinking of
- the Tuscania and the casualty list of
the boys gassed in the recent raid are
going to have their effect. The peo
ple of America are more determined
than they were a few months ago."
During the afternoon Dr. Violette
'poke to a meeting of Liberty bond
; speakers at the Chamber of Com
merce... .j .;;..i,'-,.:v
,. He spoke against. Senators Reed
and Stone at the next election. He told
1 members of the Omaha Chamber of
Commerce at noon that there is no
'.place lor such men in the senate or in
congress. ... -
j ."We're going to clean house all the
tway up and down the line," he said.
S"l wilt stump the state against Rted
and Stone at my own expense if no
I one else will pay it. We have no
jright to ask men to go to France to
t fight in the trenches for democracy
J unless we clean up the mess of fel
tlows like these at home. .
"In Paris they had a hotel keeper
iwho sent an invitation to the kaiser nd
his crowd to dine at the hotel in Paris,
September 30, 1914. Well, the kaiser
i never got there to accept the invita
Jtion. Do you know what France did
jto that hotel keeper? They did what
swe ought to do to a lot of fellows
over here now. They took him out
early one morning and shot him so
Hull of holes that he looked like a
JSwiss cheese. Today he is preparing
2a Rood hot dinner tor the kaiser in
Janother land. I oi.ly hope the dinner
Jwill not be long delayed."
I Dr. Violette said he had not voted
for Woodrow Wilson, and he said: "I
sometimes lie awake half the night to
be ashamed of myself because I did
not For when, the history is- finally
written . we will find three ereat name
standing out in American history
Washington, the father of his coun

Sammies Submit to Experiments
In Medical War on Trench Fever
Paris, March 5. Sixty enlisted men
of the United States sanitary corps,
all from New England, are now serv
ing as hosts to normal or infected
lice, or have received injections of
blood from soldiers known to have
been suffering from trench fever.
They are quartered in a British base
hospital, where the American Red
Cross is using them for an investiga
tion of trehch fever.
The organism producing the fever
has not yet been discovered by micro
scope, although it heads the fevers
among the British troops'at the front
and stands second in the list of those
causing the greatest wastage. The
disease is not fatal, but it means an
absence of six to eight weeks from
the ranks.
JAPAN WILL SEND
ARMY TO PROTECT
RUSS ON PACIFIC
(Continued From Fag One.)
tested against the proceeding, that
the occupation is to restore order and
without intent to take permanent pos
session, is regarded as very clear in
dication of what the Teutons may
undertake in any part of Russia, now
that the bolsheviki have been forced
to accept their hard peace demands.
Officials and diplomats here protest
ignorance of what preparations have
been made by Japan for the opera
tion! about to be undertaken. At a
matter of course, secrecy has been
observed and a strict censorship in
regard to the Siberian question is in
force at Tokio. Possibly the next
word to come out of Japan on the
subject will be an announcement of
something accomplished.
In this connection it it recalled that
at the beginning of the Russo-Japanese
war the Japanese acted with
out heralding. Before there was any
such formality as a declaration of war.
a Russian fleet had been smashed and
the war was half won. -
Ute Own Judgment
It has been stated in official quar
ters that this it no concern of the
entente allies nor of America how
Japan goea about the task, once the
question of policy is settled. If the
decision is reached to rive Taoan a
free hand in eastern Siberia, it is now
conceded that no other military or
naval power is in position to render
her any substantial aid, owing to the
lack of available forces..
In a diplomatic wav the situation
has remained unchanged since the
middle of last week. The State de-!
partment has not indicated to the
Japanese government what may be its
view oi we new situation created by
the signing of peace articles by the
bolsheviki.
Diplomats Ask Action.
London. March 5. The British.
French and Italian ambassadors in
Tokio intended yesterday or todav
jointly to ask Japan to take the neces
sary steps to safeguard allied interests
in Siberia, according to the Daily
Mail
The newsoaoer adds that the Amir.
(can ambassador was not expected to
join ine request, but that no disturb
ing conclusions are to be drawn from
inn lact, as no American opposition
is expectea. . . -
Argentina to Negotiate i f ;
' With U. S. for Expdrts
, Buenos Aires, March 5. Dr. Ro
mulo S. Naon, ambassador to the
United States, after a long conference
with President Irigoyen, announced
late last night that he had postponed
his return to Washington until April.
The president has asked Dr. Naon to
study several questions concerning
Argentine relations with the United
States, especially the possibility of
obtaining permission for the export
from the United States of various ar
ticles now ut.der the embargo which
