BOHEMIANS ARE
PROVING SELVES
- LOYAL TO ALLIES
Headquarters Opened in 'Omaha
to Recruit Soldiers for
Service in Regiments Now
in France. .
Bohemians of Omaha and Nebraska
are proving themselves 100 per cent
loyal. The moment France granted
their request to raise a Bohemian
army in the United States, they began
'recruiting activities. A well ; or
ganized effqrt is now under way to
make the enlistments from this city
hd state lead the list.
Emil Tuma, who has been ap-

pointed as head of the recruiting bu
reau for Nebraska,- Kansas, North
and South Dakota, has opened head
quarters at 1423 South Thirteenth
street
Omaha Sends 153 -
Since permission to organize an
arm of Bohemians was granted by
the French government, recruiting
offices have been opened in every
large city in the United States. Omaha
has sent 153 recruits to New York,
where they will join recruits from all
parts of the United States for em
barkation to France. When they
reach the front they will be attached
to the Bohemian army already in the
field. ' ,
This army is -composed of 30,000
Bohemians captured from the Aus
.trians by the Italian forces, 60,000
Bohemian prisoners captured by the
Russians early in tf?e war, the Bohe
mians formerly in the Foreign Legion
serving in France; who have been
transferred to the Bohemian army,
and several thousand volunteers.
, ''f. Barred from Serviced -t ' ,
Recruits sent from the United
States -consist mostly of men barred
from service in the United States
army, either through lack of citizen
ship or from being over age.
Charles Okrina,. discharged from
United .States army as an enemy
alien, has joined the Bohemian army
ill Guiana, a'tu iiaa iiiioiu svu ui
the 10 discharged with hm from
Camp Cody. He will be retained as
a recruiting officer in this district.
"Many Bohemians in America are
ready and willing to fight with the
allies," said Mr. Tuma, "but are not
eligible for service in the national
army. It is such as these will chief
ly comprise the American enlistment
in the Bohemian army in France."
Colonel Nance Praises New
Arrivals at Balloon School
Colonel Nance, Commanding officer
at Fort Omaha, praises the men who
have recently arrived at the fort for
instruction at the balloon school.
"They are strong, up-standing
young men," said Colonel Nance,
"and are ready and quick to learn,
and I am sure they will make good in
a surprisingly short time,"
The men are receiving instruction
in various branches of the service
connected with balloon work.
The work is progressing splendidly,
according to Colonel Nance, who re
ports that delays and inconveniences,
which earlier in the war frequently
occurred, are being remedied rapidly,
and in every department of the big
fcrt work is being accomplished with
efficiency and dispatch. ;
