YAGER TELLS WHY, PETITIONERS OUT, FOR WARDSYSTEM Not Opposed to Present Com missioners, He Says, But Doesn't Like Plan of Government. George E. Yager comes forth as spokesman for those who are circu lating petitions for a change of city government from the present plan to the old system of ward councilmen. "A statement has been made tha,t the circulators of these petitions are opposed to the present commission ers. That statement is not true." Yager averred. "The men who are circulating these petitions are op posed to the commission plan of gov ernment and not to the men who are holding office. "If the present commissioners can be elected as councilmen in their re spective wards, the men who are op posed to the commission plan will give them the same support that they would give to other men. All that is desired is that the electors shall have the right of government by represen tation. v Yager Started Move. "These petitions were circulated a year ago through my agency and I was asked to drop the matter, by some influential people who agreed that the changing of the personnel cf the commission would better con ditions. This prophecy has not ma terialized." A man who was circulating one of the petitions on Friday declined to give any information as to the per sons or organization for whom he was working. The project has been discredited in view of the .fact that the city charter convention, which is r.ow at work, will incorporate the commission plan of government in the city charter, which will be submitted to the voters next fall. It has further been pointed out that under no circumstances could the plan of city, government be changed until the expiration of the three-year terms for which the pres ent commissioners were elected last May. Keeping Things Quiet. Should there be any representative expression of the electorate in favor of submitting the question to a vote, after the proposed home rule charter shall have been approved, the pro cedure would be to submit an amend ment to the charter to the voters, as provided for in the home rule charter law. Mr. Yager has failed to give the names of any persons who are identi fied with him in this enterprise and there is an air of mystery as to the identity of persons other than Yager who are anxious for a change to the old plan of city government.

Some are accepting However, those teachers who are especially successful in their work, should render service here since the citizenship of tomorrow is important in order that heroic service may be rendered. "Teachers who have spent time and money to prepare for this department should think twice before making the change as a matter of service to their country since so many men are leav ing the profession.

Out of money and suffering from hunger, she called on Mrs. Ohaus, who arranged for a meal. The woman also told an elevator conductor of the city hall that she was desperately in need of aid, but was too proud to ask , friendj at home for relief, nor would she yield to temptations which she ; said had been in her pathway since coming to.Omaha.
