One dollar or more opens ah ae-
Washington,' March 13. The sen
ate military committee today hord
a delegation of- lumbermen who are
opposing a Wat department bi'l au
thorising the.' president to comman
deer lumber and timber for the army,
navy and shipping board.
Representative Fordney of Michi
gan, a lumberman and spokesman
for the delegation, declared tha bill
was "a menace to the industry' and
said the lumber interests are doing
their best to furnish government re
quirements
"It would be a great mistake to
take over and operate 48,000 taw
: mills by one man. Now they are be
ing managed competently by 48,000
experienced men, he said.
"There's nothing to it but an or
gahized labor proposition, from top
to bottom," said Mr. Fordney, "to
direct the number of hours and
wares "
The eight-hour day was forced on
western lumbermen, Representative
Fordney said, and puts them at a dis
advantage with competitors on a ten
hour basis.' Also, be said, the Indus
trial Workers of the World' tied up
western mills for three months.
"So far as I - am concerned, I'd
stand the-I W. W. up against a wall
and shoot them," Senator Thomas
rt CrrnAn intrrieeted.
Senator Kirby of Arkansas' said the
government, even the Dill was
passed, -would not interfere with con
cerns getting out mmoer satisiacior
ilv. The oowera to commandeer tin
ber, he said, is' needed especially be
cause some owners are holding tim
ber tracts for hieher orices.,.
"Complaints of the shipping board
that southern operators would not
furnish timbers in sizes needed, Rep
resentative rordney said, are un
founded. The south does not pro
duce trees, of sizes as large as or
AerA hv the hoard.
Behind the bill, Mr. Fordney said,
is a desire to force the southern mills,
largely using negro labor, to adopt
an eighthour day.
'"The oresident. throueh the secre
tarv of labor and Mr. Gompers, has
been at it day and night," the Michi
Aran : representative declared, explain
ing that organized' labor had failed
m efforts to organize negro lapor,

Barin reoorted his loss to the' oo-
them to meet the requirements of the
army and nayy. That appeal was .sent
to more than 300 growers yesterday
by Gurdon W. Wattles, federal food
administrator for Nebraska.
"Inasmuch as the government is
taking from 30 to 35 per cent of the
output of factories, increased pio
duction must follow to meet the de
mands for home consumption," says
Wattles.
"If the factories are to meet the de
mands and furnish the large quart ty
of canned goods necessary, the fa tri
ers tributary to these factories must
assist in every possible manner by
increasing their acreage on these
fundamental foods. '
"Our soldiers fight with guns und
ammunition. You take your place in
the battle line by producing more
food and especially the particular
kinds of foods which the army and
navy needs.
"I appeal to you in behalf of your
government to co-operate with your
canning factories and meet the urgtnt
demand for more canned foods"
BRUTAL' ATTACK
ON YOUNG WOMAN;
POLICE HOLD MAN
Miss Nettie Moss) 23 year old,
cashier, was found lying unconfcious
in the street near Twenty-eighth ave
nue and Lincoln boulevard last
night, the victim of an attempted as
sault. She rooms at 311 North Twenty-eighth
avenue.
Her assailant is described by Miss
Moss as a short, heavy-set man, wear
ing a gray overcoat and a cap.
Gust Kaulouris, 2309 Dewey avenue,
was arrested by Officers Coffey and
Rose an hour afterward in his room
and is booked at the police station
for investigation. Later he was re
leased. He admitted having a quarrel with
Miss Moss last night, but denied hav
ing taken her home.
The young woman was found ly;ng
in a dark spot, 200 feet north of Lin
coln boulevard, by Gerald Heim. .480
Emmet street,. and W. D. Dorrance.
402 Lincoln boulevard. She was
ried to the home of Mrs. Mary A
derson,- 311 North Twenty-cigntu
avenue, where she was attendea by
Police Surgeon Mullin.
Incoherently she told of her strug
gle with her unrecognized assailant.
"He tried to choke me, and I kicked
him away," said Miss Moss, "then
he threw me in the street and
choked me until I lost my breath. He
kicked me-in the side several times
and then ran away."
She was suffering terribly from
pains in her side.. Deep finger-marks
on her throat remained where her
assailant choked her.
Miss Moss told the police the same
man attempted to attack her Friday
night, but was scared away.
For five . nights, she said, a man
has been following her home, but she
neglected to inform the police of the
affair. ,
MUSIC
Miss Morton's Piano Recital.
Miss Dorothy Morton, one of Oma
ha's most talented younger musicians,
was heard last evening at the Young
Women's Christian association audi
torium in a piano recital, which im
mediately won her a high place in the
musical ranks of our city. Miss Mor
ton has manv of those Qualities which
go to make up the thorough musician.
Her talent, distinctly for the musical
beauties, has been carefully broad
ened and developed. She has stylet as
surance, excellent taste and an artistic
conception of everything she plays.
There is vitality and charm through
out, and the result is that her playing
does not hold a dull moment. Her
technical equipment is sufficient to
meet the many diversified exactions
of the difficult program, yet it never
obtrudes above the musical content
of the numbers, and this is as it should
be. Her clean-cut phrasing, Deauty
of tone and judgment in shading, her
careful pedaling and broad under
standing of the unity of each biece
were all noted as contributing to the
resultant effects.
The many different incidents of the
beautiful Schumann "Carnival" were
clearly and delightfully presented. A
group of modern numbers, brbught
wide contrasts with each of its four
interesting novelties. The climax of
the evening came with the Tkchaikov
sky "Concerto," in B flat minor, in
which Miss Morton was artistically
assisted by Mr. Martin Bush at the
second piano. The grace and charm of
the Andante, the poetry of the Andan
tino Semplice and the spirit and verve
of the more brilliant movements, es
pecially the Allegro con fuoco at the
close, were depicted in such a way
as to reflect great credit upon the
young pianist,
Miss Morton was enthusiastically
received and presented with numerous
armfuls of flowers.
Two encores, "Prelude," by Fryer,
and "Arietta," by an old master
named Leo. were graciously added to
the program. H. M. R.
