A THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE -OCTOBER' 20, 1918. LINCOLN SPEECH ANNIVERSARY TO BE OBSERVED G. A. R. Camps Asked to Plan Patriotic Ceremonies to Be : Held in United States on November 19. Omaha Surgeon Assigned , to Base Hospital November 19, fifty-fifth anniver , iiry of Lincoln's address at Get tysburg will b observed with ap- propriate ceremonies by the G. A. K. throughout the nation. C. E. Adams, commander in chief, has lent a call to all camps in the country asking them to obsert e the day as one appropriate on which to kindle anew the fires of patriotism and celebrate with fitting speeches and ceremonies. Relief Corps To Aid. The Woman's Relief corps also is asked to assist in making the anni versary of Lincoln's great speech a distinctly patriotic event. Meetings are expected to be leld in Omaha on this date and in all the principal cities of the United States.. The call sent out by Commander Adams is as follows: "A wonderful and marvelous his tory comes Into view when we con template the life and public services of Abraham Lincoln. "His character was so American and lovable that it has entered all ouf hearts and all our homes. His life was so great and his principle! were so just, that they are the bea con light of the liberties of the world and point to the true princi ples of humanity and justice by which the peace of the world must be sustained. "Abraham Lincoln proved him elf equal to every emergency. He was the child of nature; he was strong of body and sound of mind. So supremely great was he, that the multitudes loved and trusted him for what he was, an honest man; he proved the type he looked to be, the saviour of our country. Lincoln Greatest Man. "In all ages great men have risen to bless mankind, but Abraham Lin coln was the greatest of them all; he lived to save his country, and he died to consecrate it with his life's blood; his : name is unparalleled among the world's elect and is im mutably fixed; he was purely Ameri can; he acted as Americans act and talked as Americans talk. His Get- tysbufg speech had its abiding place away down in his soul's deep cell and came forth in the pure breathings of undying life to bless mankind. "My comrades: The 19th day of November is the anniversary of Lin coln's Gettysburg speech, that hal lowed Gettysburg battle field, con secrated by the blood of our com rades of the civil war. "This year wilhbe the fifty-fifth anniversary of that great day and I beseech you, to call upon your auxiliary, the Woman's Relief corps, and all other patriotic societies to v meet with you in public places and kindle anew the fires of patriotism and celebrate this great speech and ' day with ceremonies, patriotic and " appropriate."

WOBBLIE HEAD PLEADS GUILTY TO ESPIONAGE Walter Pasewalk, Minneapolis Industrial Worker, Admits Violation of Sedition Law. Walter Pasewalk, one of the lead ers of the I. W. W. organization, formerly official head of the I. W. W. lodge No. 573, Minneapolis, Minn., and for the past year held in the Douglas county jail along with many other members awaiting trial under the espionage act. concluded to quit the lodgej and asked for an immediate arraignment in the fed eral court. Fasewalk was in Omaha in an offi cial capacity when federal officers raided a meeting on lower Douglas street nearly a year ago. Later the grand jury returned indictments against a large number of them, charging conspiracy to obstruct the draft and other war activities. A few days ago Pasewalk in formed the " office of the United States district attorney that he was ready to plead guilty to all the counts in ihe grand jury indictment, and he was brought before Federal Judge Woodrough Saturday morn ing. Judge Woodrough ordered Pase walk placed in the Dodge county jail pending sentence which will prob ably not occur until after the other members of the organization have been tried before the petit jury. Pasewalk asked that he be not re turned to the Douglas county jail, fearing the consequences his plea of guilty might bring forth from his former comrades. Forms New Cabinet. Paris, Oct. 19.

Vee-zay Ex-Paddle Wheel Man, Disgruntled, He Starts Moveon Cigarets The citizen who recently demand ed that Police Commissioner Ringer enforce the state law which prohibr its the sale of cigarets, is said to be a man who, in former years, con ducted extensive "paddle wheel" op erations at the Ak-Sar-Ben carni vals and who lost out on the deal this year owing to the order of Mayor Smith and Ringer against these gambling devices. "We are catching more automo bile thieves today than ever before," said Commissioner Ringer. "We are getting more bootleggers and confiscating more 'booze,' large quantities of it, than ever before, and we are dealing with the prosti tution evil more successfully than pver before. Naturally we can't do everything at once. "I have referred the cigaret sug gestion to Chief Eberstein. If there is an honest demand on the part of disinterested citizens to make a drive on cigaret smoking it will cer tainly be done, just as all other laws are being enforced."
