Stotkholm, April 4. The Ameri
can and British army officers who re
cently visited General Mannerheim,
the Finnish white guard leader, upon
orders from their Stockholm lega
tions, were insulted and threatened
with personal violence by Finnish of
ficers in a hotel restaurant in Vasa,
according to a war correspondent in
Finland of a Swedish newspaper.
The correspondent says the two
Visiting officers who figured in the
incident, wearing the uniforms of
their rank, entered the restaurant at
a time when it was crowded with
Finnish officers, mainly from a unit
which had served in Germany. The
visitors had scarcely had time to take
seats before a Finnish officer ap
proached the table and told them
their presence was not desired. He
withdrew only when shown a pass
from General Mannerlieini.
Insults to American.
Later another Finn asked the or
chestra to play "Die Wacht Am
Rhein." Everybody arose, the Amer
ican and Englishman, plainly desiring
dates for city commissionership nom-
matfons, each candidate s name wm ,
appear first at two voting places and
last at two places.,
There are 'approximately 40,000
registered voters now on the books
of the election commissioner. Many
oT these "are in military service. The
total vote at the city primary three
years ago was 17,146 Since that time
South Omaha, Dundee, Benson and
Florence have been annexed, but the
addition of voters by reason of an
nexation has been offset by the war
situation.
Prohibit Electioneering.
In the instructions issued to judges
and clerks of election the following
appears: "No person shall do any
electioneering on election day within
any polling place, or within 100 feet
thereof."
Officers of election are prohibited
from doing any electioneering on
election day. The penalty for voting
more than once is one to five years in
the penitentiary.
to avoid threatened violence, also
arising. Another Finnish officer,
continues the correspondent, swag
gered to the table and said:
"It is our principle not to sit in the
same room with Englishmen."
The American replied that he was
an American, not an Englishman, but
the Finn responded: "It is all the
same; you have just two minutes to
get out of the house."
The visitors, w ho had finished their
meal, left the room, accompanied by
insults from the Finnish officers.
M. Saria, the white government's
foreign minister and a noted pro
German, sat at nearby table, the cor
respondent says, and made no effort
to protect the men, although they
were traveling on a special diplo
matic pass from his own government.
Americans and Swedes who have
recently been in Finland declare the
incident given is typical of the exist
ing feeling among the great majority
of th Finns with whom they came in
contact.
